I've been MIA for a while..

Work has been kicking my butt.  I've been so busy.  I have no time for bumping/nesting anymore!  :(

And.. unfortunately I come with bad news.  My uncle (mom's brother) was murdered 2 weeks ago.  The funeral was on Sunday. It was a shock (obviously), and even though he was somewhat estranged from the family.  But it was still a horrible thing that happened and my mom, her sisters, and my grandparents were very upset.  They did make an arrest, so unfortunately as that goes through court and trial - which who knows how long that will take - will just keep bringing everything up for them.  So - maybe say a few prayers for them, and they go through this. 

We had our IVF class on Monday.. and I go in for my baseline scan / bloodwork tomorrow to determine if we can do IVF this cycle.  My bloodwork has been off lately, so I'm really really nervous that it's going to be bad news.  Ahhh.

How is everyone else doing?  Any fun weekend plans?

    Update: Blood work was perfect, so we started the injects this morning!

    @LCostel - Funny you say that, because I was really hoping it would happen this cycle.  We have a couple trips & with a weird work schedule coming up, it would probably be pushed into winter.  After what we went through earlier this year, I'd be so afraid of the weather messing things up & would not want that stress!

    Glad you had a good update!
  • Wow - I am sorry to hear about your uncle - that is terrible for any family whether the person was estranged or not :(

    Happy to hear your blood work was good and wishing you luck on this IVF cycle!

    Had my baby showers last week and glad those are done so that now I can start concentrating on fixing our house up and setting up a baby/guest room :-)
