Jennifer's Diary Entries

July 7, 2000

Greetings ladies!
How are you all?! I'm here just to give a quick 'update' since it's been a while since I've posted anything.

First, I'd like to say thank you to those who still post to me on my BB. It's nice to know that I'm still thought of even though I'm not around much these days! Second, DH and I are still taking time off TTC and it's been really nice! The stresses that go along with TTC haven't been there and it's seemed to have made things a little calmer. We're still taking time off but I'll let you know when we decide to pick up again!

I went to Las Vegas June 22-26 and had a blast! An old friend of mine picked me up and we had a nice time, although I didn't get a chance to see him much while there. My girlfriend (I stayed with her while there) and I had a great time and painted the town red! We went out every night and had so much fun. It was definitely what I needed to bring my spirits back up. Although I missed my DH, my kitties, my house, my family and friends, I sure didn't want to get back onto that airplane and come back home.

I may go back one more time before the end of summer. I want DH to come with me but he's developed this fear of flying within the past several years and doesn't want to get on a plane. I mean, he will, but not unless he really has to so he's told me to go ahead and go again. We're trying to plan a short trip there in February so we can BOTH go and have fun and enjoy the sites, sounds, and attractions!

I'm still going strong with my daily workouts! I even managed to get to a gym and do my workout while out in Las Vegas ... now that's dedication, huh?!!! :)

I FINALLY got AF on day 43!!!!!!! I thought I was going crazy waiting for her arrival. Since I'm usually so regular (27-29 days every month) I was worried when I was starting to count into the 40s! I guess it's just because I've been working out so much and eating such a low-fat diet. I've read some things about women's monthly cycles getting messed up from lots of exercising. Good thing we're not really TTC otherwise who knows when I'd "O." Oh, and of course, AF just HAD to start while I was on vacation ... I swear ... she's out to get me!!! :)

My mom is doing really well! She may have had her last chemotherapy treatment on June 27th. She goes in for tests on July 11th to find out if the cancer is still in her body and how much, etc. I'll know more then. My uncle from Oregon and his son came out this past week to surprise her. My mom and uncle are really close so it was great to see her face when they popped around the corner of her house! Just what the doctor ordered!

We've been having a great time! Yesterday I was in charge of a small birthday party for a handful of 6-year-olds! Ahhhhhhh!!!! They were all good but boy was I tired by the end of the night! I even put together my first "Lego" kit. I didn't think it would be THAT hard ...!

Everything else is going well. I'll be sure to keep you all posted on what's going on and when I'm coming back. I just wanted to keep in touch and say hi to everyone.

Hugs to all!
~Jennifer
