    @IFinTN I can sympathize, my DH also works all weekend that's what I get for marrying a government worker...

    AFM,   I went to my IL's house tonight for some pinochle and Scrabble. I'm fortunate that I have IL's that I enjoy spending time with (for the most part, LOL) and that invite me over when they know I'm bored alone at home with the dog. Tomorrow I have a lining check, meh that's not as exciting as Scrabble tonight, LOL

    I'm keeping everything crossed for you @Geordie314!! Enjoy your weekend in Vegas!

    @IFinTN did you at least get to see the fireworks? I hear they are awesome in Nashville

    Hope everyone is having a relaxing weekend!

    All my plans aren't panning out. I had planned on getting a lot of summer school grading done- but there was a fire incident and I was only allowed back in to get my keys and had to leave- so I didn't bring anything home.
    Due to the storm, a family BBQ was moved, but DH couldn't change his schedule. So instead I'm doing some reading, cleaning, and coloring.

    Hoping everyone is having a fun weekend! @geordie314‌ - so happy for you! I have my fingers crossed that this is it for you!!! 7/2 was my endometrial receptivity biopsy. It was absolutely awful. They had to do it twice because of some mix up of the specimen container. I know I was hoping we would find something wrong that we could fix. But now, I'm hoping it comes back as 'receptive' because honestly, right now I really can't imagine having to go through that again. The holiday weekend had been fun, for the most part. My husband and I hosted a cookout on the 3rd and are going to another tonight. I'm finding the longer we have been going through failed treatments, all holidays are getting harder to get through. I'm so incredibly grateful to be with my husband, but I can't help but think about all of the things we are still missing out on.

    Me (32) DOR, elevated NK Cells/ 2 copies of MTHFR mutation/ MH (35) azoo/high DFI   (TTC#1 since 2009)

    IVFs#1-4: (4/10-2/12) all BFN

    Surprise Bfp (9/11) - c/p

    Thank you for the hug <3 I am genuinely happy for her & our whole family. I don't know if this makes any sense, but ever since I found that my ovaries are the source of our problem, I haven't been so focused on everyone else's success... Almost like I have a target for my anger. I can throw hate at my ovaries and then I feel better. Everyone else's success is separate from this. My ovaries can suck it, and I hate them, but it opens up room in my heart where I was once confused. That probably makes no sense. Sorry!! Either way, the hugs are nice. And my sister's request for T&Ps... so classy! Hopefully we will all find a happy resolution soon.
