I just heard from Steph. She's doing well, but won't be checking in anytime soon. She spent some of her computer fund on tickets to see Bret in Ocola (sp - I know that's not right). She said you've all been thrown over for a pair of baby blues. LOL

Bec~ Thanks for the update on Steph. I have been thinking about her.

Mel~ Hope they get it straight.

Karyn~ Thank you! Glad you had a nice weekend.

Well, I dont think this spotting is af. It has continued today, but is still light and darker, not red. I called the RE's office and she said that with my estrogen, my lining should have been atleast 8mm, which would look like a real period... She offered that I could come in for an u/s, but I just dont think it is worth taking the time off of work and making the drive. I told her I would wait a few more days and if it stops I will just wait for something "real" to show up. I hope I'm doing the right thing.

Lauren~I hope that the real AF comes soon! Do you ever get pre-AF spotting? That was the blinkie I was thinking of

Rebecca~Thanks for letting us know about Steph. I was wondering about her again this weekend. Those pictures of the dogs were cute. I wish our dog would play with other dogs, that could be fun

Mel~I see. I hope he gets that fax!

Mary~Good luck selling the house. Hopefully you'll sell it in time to get the other house.

Karyn~Thanks!

Lauren ~ for things working out and getting the ball rolling again

Well, Cap'n called the doctor again today and apparently the doc told Cap'n that she (or he, I forget) would personally mail out the results tomorrow. AF is imminent so this doc better keep their word!

hey everyone!

All went well yesterday. It really helps when the opposing counsel is nice... things are much easier!

Well, I got my CH today... We will see. I know I've been through a lot of cycles, but I always smile when I first see the CHs. It makes me feel a glimmer of hope. Next month it will be 3 years without birth control pills. Ugh...

Well, I better go make some dinner.

Mary - I hope your house sells quickly! I bought my BBT at Walgreens, I always see them there.

Rebecca - That is funny about Steph trading us for Bret Do you have your Hysteroscopy scheduled yet? Just wondering where you are at with that. Speaking of dog parks, DH's cousin and his wife take their lab to one. Around Labor Day, they have a dog swim! I don't know if it's a public pool they use before they drain it out or what. I just thought that was neat, how fun that would be!

Mare - Glad court went well! I know what you mean about CH, I feel so much better after I see those lines! I wish I didn't remember what month I stopped BCP, it's such a crappy reminder.

So Monday I went to Kohl's to exchange a pair of shoes for a different size. I ended up buying a few things and left my shoes at the register! I didn't even realize it until I got home.....DUH! That was my reason for going in the first place! Also, they have Christmas stuff out already! I don't know why I seem shocked every year when I see it out so early!

Mare - I'm glad things went well. And I agree I love seeing the ch line, and I hate thinking about how long it's been since I quit the pill. But guess what?, we're cycle buddies! I hope we both end this b s this month!

Karyn - Our public pool has a dog swim every labor day too! Our basset just isn't much of the swimmer. But they did fix up our dog park so that the entrance into the water is bricked and smooth now, so Blue of course walked right in and started swimming!

Speaking about Blue, and trying to move, she is such a baby right now. Since all I've been doing is cleaning, clearing stuff out, and I had to move her food and water she has been a nervous wreck.

Rac - Tell Steph we all say HI! How's the massaging business?

Mel - So if you get the results in the next week, you guys will do IUI next cycle? How exciting!!!!

Lisa - I was thinking about you yesterday as Kansas finally turned to fall, and I broke down and bought some deep red and yellow mums.

Maybe this week, I'll post all my hardwork I've been doing. Heck I kind of really like my house now! LOL

Talk to you all later!

Karyn - I can't schedule the hysteroscopy till cd1....which should be in a few days. I'm expecting it to be Friday or Saturday - just in time for my Spa Stone workshop this weekend! Never fails, huh? We just got a new Kohl's. I haven't been there yet, though.

Mary - It's slow. I did have a massage scheduled this past Saturday, though and maybe one tomorrow evening. We'll see. I'm hoping that things pick up for the holidays.

Mary - I have never been to a dog park, I think the closest would be 45 minutes to an hour away. We have a few neighbor dogs that Dozer plays with so that's fine! When we put our house on the market, I started liking it more than I did before! Probably because I spent weeks cleaning and painting!

Rebecca - Oh I see. I hope you can get in soon to get it done after CD 1. The workshop sounds like fun! Where I got my massage last time, they offer a stone massage as well, I think I'll try that one next! I bet you will get so busy too after Christmas with gift certificates. I love Kohl's, they had some good sales going on too. Most of the coats were half off, as well as comforters and purses. There is a lot of buy 1, get 1 free too.

Karyn - They only do the procedure cd5-8 so I'm hoping to have it scheduled next Friday so I can have a long weekend!!! The last time I was under general anesthesia, I was down for two days like a drunk.

We're leaving for Montana tomorrow. AF will probably show up on the plane ride out I thought she was coming yesterday with the temp drop I had but of course I had a pscyhe-out high temp today that stupidly caused me to use a cheapie hpt. Oh well, it is what it is - I'm just pissed that I might end up missing out on starting injects by a couple of days. Of course I've bitched about it to DH and now he thinks I'm not happy about the trip... I do love to travel but I have to admit it does piss me off that the timing of it didn't even occur to him when he was planning the surprise. He is upset about the timing in that AF will be here and HE won't get to enjoy vaca sex but could care less about the fact that its messing up next cycle. Ugh sorry for venting!!!!

Rebecca - looks like we will be cycle buddies!!! I hope that I will be back before you have the hysteroscopy but just in case - good luck!

I really don't have time to respond to everyone - I just wanted to pop on and say I'm thinking of you all and will be back and posting next week! I haven't done any job hunting yet but I've been using the time to do some stuff around the apt that we've been putting off so thats been keeping me busy.

Irene - It's good to hear from you, and I hope that regardless of AF you and DH will still have a good time.

Now I need to vent. So I just got an email from one of my many cousin who is pg AGAIN!!!, she has 4 daughters, then meet this guy, had a boy, then got married, and is pg again. She sent out this cute little email. Why did she have to include me? She knows we've been trying for over a year. It's so upsetting, that I almost want to write her back and say, well shit, could you have one for us already? Don't you know it's going to be impossible to pay for six kids college educations? Some pg women, who get pg at the drop of a hat just don't think. I'm so pissed I just want to respond something really horrible. But I've learned that deleting it, is the best thing for me, now I really can't respond.

Thanks for being here for me girls, I want to cry, but then again I'm at work, and everyone will question what's wrong, and you know how that goes.

Mary - I've cried at my desk A LOT. I wish I could say something really prophetic to make you feel better, but I can't. There's really nothing that can take the pain away. Know that you're not alone. {{hugs}} Your cousin sounds like my sister....

Hi girls I wasn't able to read back on all the posts, but I will get to them! I'm just sitting here at work starting to get really nervous about my surgery. Its next Friday. If I think about it, I start shaking and feel really sick! I'm such a baby. But on the other hand, my stomach is already starting to hurt since AF is also due next week and I just want this over and to be normal! My friend at work that I told you guys about that did the embroyo (sp?) adoption had her first u/s Monday. She's only got one, but she already heard the heartbeat. Gives me hope! She's telling me my surgery will be OK so we'll see. I still plan to try and make it to the NKOTB concert Saturday night. I'll have a day and a half to recover some. I'll just sit the whole time and possibly wear sweatpants. I am also applying for another job with the State. I hate filling out job applications!!! I will be checking in more now that my surgery is near. I need some help keeping myself sane!!!!

I hope everyone is doing well. I'm going to read back on all the posts now
