Unsolved Mysteries

It seems I have a mystery on my hands. Not quite on the scale of say a “Bermuda Triangle” or “Stonehenge” kind of mystery but a genuine mystery none the less.

I did laundry the other day...not exactly truly very exciting news I know but it explains the mystery so just go with me on this one..

I pulled out my laundry, folded a few things and noticed that there was some kind of pink goo on my clothes. “Hmmmm” I think “I wonder what that is?” I ask myself but continue to fold away. I do another load of laundry and get the same result so I take a look in the dryer and find this...





















Along with a lonely but guilty looking Double Bubble wrapper. Double Bubble was invented in 1928 by Philadelphia based Walter E. Diemer, an accountant at Fleer. Why do I know this...I have no idea but I do. Anywho...said wrapper was happily curled up into the corner of the dryer trying very hard to look innocent. Now for the interesting part...not a soul in the JaAdam household has any idea how or why a chewed up piece of bubble gum ended up getting washed and dried a couple of times.

“I've never seen that gum before”...”I don't even like Double Bubble”...”It's not mine” are some of what I have heard. A real mystery indeed! It's also a mystery as to just how I am going to get it off!

Keeping Secrets

I've been keeping a secret. I'm not even going to make you wait. I'm just going to come out and say it. I really don't like when people say, "Hey, I have news" and then ramble on for fifteen minutes about how they didn't know how to tell you, and would you like the good news or the bad news first. I mean, if you don't know how to tell me, then maybe you should have thought about it a little bit more before you brought it up, because now I'm just sitting here waiting while you find the perfect words to share news that...let's be honest...probably doesn't impact me in the slightest. And as for the good news/bad news question? What do you think? If you're really asking, I'd rather not hear the bad news at all. Because who wants to hear bad news? Unless it's just "bad" relative to the good news, but not really all that bad in its own right, well then I guess I wouldn't mind hearing it. And I might like to hear it first

Unexpected?

Just got the call that I had been fearing but perhaps was expecting. The embryos were not there. We have nothing. Heartbroken doesn't begin to describe how I am feeling.

Dilemma

I’m having a bit of a dilemma. Which is putting it mildly. I am not sure whether to shut the factory down for good, or keep it chugging along in its pitiful, yet marginally functioning state. If things were normal, if *I* was normal (cue hysterical laughter here), then I might be happy to let things chug along as they were and see what happens. But things (my body and I) are far from normal and so I feel like I need to make a decision either way. Which really sucks and makes me feel a renewed sense of frustration, irritation and mourning for the sorry state of affairs of my reproductive bits. We recently had an appointment with our RE to discuss our options and see where we stand. It was great to touch base with Dr. L but as expected, nothing has really changed. My fertility has been on a fairly rapid decline and there's not much we can do to change that (FSH last tested at 20). It was good to hear that my tubes are open and that my uterus appears to be in good shape but despit
