Yesterday was a tough day. On the drive home from work I had a little cry. I pulled into the driveway got out of the car and saw this...


Now matter the troubles of my day or the sadness I feel...life marches on and I just need to march right along with it.

    Beautiful picture. I think it was a sign from God that everything will be ok. You were meant to see that rainbow. : ) You are strong and can make it through the sadness!

    Hi,

    I found your blog after putting " four follicles on AFC" into google. I also just got the " four" count. Down from 12 just four months ago. Uuuuuugh. I keep telling myself that all it takes is ONE. I am 36 and live in southern Ontario. I am doing a minimal stim cycle...thank you for your words -- sending you lots of babydust...

      Hi Janet,

      Wow I grew up in Ottawa! I just got home from my egg retrieval after min stim cycle. We got three egg retrieved -- now the anxious waiting game to see if any fertilize- uuuuugh. We had three big follicles and one small one going into today's procedure. So everyone is considering 3 eggs as a good outcome. I only need one!!!

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...

Birthdays & Beauty

Yesterday was Adam's 35th Birthday. I baked him a cake (it was a sad, sad little cake but it was a homemade...sad, sad little cake),  bought him balloons and decorated the house a little... I thought the silly faces would be cute...but they look kind of creepy! We had a lovely evening. Happy Birthday Adam...love you much! Adam's birthday got me to thinking about my next birthday. I'll be 37 this summer and I’ve noticed I’m no longer as young as I think I am. This epiphany usually happens when I look in the mirror, a habit  I'm  trying to lose.  I don’t wear a lot of  makeup usually , but recently (yesterday cause I left work early to bake a cake, baked the cake, looked in the mirror, felt old, went to the mall to buy something to fix it), I forked over $27 for a tube of concealer. I walked into the makeup section at the Bay...something I never ever, ever do. In fact, I go out of my way to never enter the Bay using the  entrance ...
