grover Originally uploaded by Calliope1. So I am still down in the doldrums, can’t put myself in a “happy place” to save my life. Whatever. You know sometimes you just have to feel it and live it to get through it. Shit. I sound like a running shoe commercial. But that makes sense, right? Forcing [...]
That is the sound of 58 million sperm rushing to the golden egg(s). This morning I had the smoothest IUI ever. No wait in the waiting room. No wait in the IUI room. And Nurse P. did the honors and was in & out before I even realized it. sha-zam! The traffic on the way [...]
This day has been way more nuts than I ever intended for it to be. For starters I had major fax issues & had all sorts of problems getting the prescription for my new meds faxed to me. What worked? I smacked the shit out of the machine & threatened to pull the plug. And [...]
First of all – I can not stop chuckling over how many of you guys e-mailed me the shocking news about Big Daddy. We can officially relax as I am truly out this cycle. Can’t say I am surprised, but there is that initial moment of, “Fucking, shit, damn, not another failed fucking month!!” As [...]

This month will be Leif’s last chance to shake his money maker. I am planning on going in for an IUI the 2nd week of January. I am doing a “whatever” cycle. So far I haven’t taken my morning temperature, I haven’t been dealing with medications, I’m just going to wing it. One last fling. [...]
So to offset yesterday’s shittiness, the Universe has given me two gems today. 1) I have just been notified that THREE of my photos have made it to the semi finals for a State Wide photo contest. (hello Cash Prizes!!) wooooo hooooo! 2) One of my best friends, I have written about him before, has [...]
Well I have been sperminated. I arrived at the clinic at promptly 8:15am. I hope my eggies managed to be just as prompt! My 2nd favorite RE was on call & my very favorite specimen tech was walking out the door as I was walking in. She said, “I hooked you up with a good [...]
