It's only 10:30 and I'm ready to just say fuck you to this day. I had an appt this morning with my RE. I get in my car throw it in gear and the fucking button on the gear thing breaks off. So I turn around go back to my driveway and try to park it. Oh wait I can't put it in fucking park without pushing the button in that I'm now holding in my hand. So I turned the key off ..... Guess what it won't let me have my keys now because it's not in park. Fuck it I threw the emergency break up, and got out.
Now we have another antique Alfa Rameo Sprider in the garage. So I'll just take it to go to my appt and call AAA when I get back and let them haul my car to the dealership. Guess what..... I turn the key and click click click then NOTHING!!!! The battery is fucking dead. I can't jump it off because the other car won't crank or give me my keys back. So I called my husband and made him leave work so I can take him back so I can have his car now because you know I have to go to the RE to see what's going on to get the show on the road for my FET.
So while I wait for him I popped the hood on the spider because we have a battery charger and I'll hook it up and let it charge so we can use it while my car is getting fixed because I'm sure they are going to keep it a few days. I'm sure they don't just have buttons in stock because I'm prob the only person this has happened to. No fucking battery to be seen. I know NOTHING about cars but I know what the fucking battery is suppose to look like and can jump them off. Fucking Italian car it's in the trunk. I hit the lever for the trunk it's fucking broken. My husband was suppose to have fixed this 6 months ago. About this time he drives up and I'm LIVID, I'm sure being hopped up on lupron isn't helping. He says oh I forgot to fix the trunk, I'll order the part when I get back to work. The part has to come from Italy, it's going to take a month to get it if we are lucky. Not fucking help me right now.
So then I drop him back off at the hospital at the front entrance so I can go to my RE. As I'm driving off there is a man walking in and I stop to let him cross and he's carrying a diaper bag, a suitcase, and one of those nursing pillows. Fuck me!!!! I lost it and cried all the way to my RE so I can get blood drawn and a date with the dildo cam.
I'm finally back home so I'm thinking I should just get drunk, let AAA take my car and make my damn husband walk home after work because if he would have fixed the other car when he knew it was broken we wouldn't be down to 1 car that works today.
I'm so sorry you are having such a rough day!! If you drink now maybe a coworker or friend could bring your DH home? He would understand! I hope you can de-stress now!

Me 34 Him 33
Me - Left salpingo-oophorectomy at 19 due to large cyst/torsion and 2 large uterine fibroids found at age 30
Him - Borderline low sperm count (correcting through Fertility Blend supplement)
Married 8/20/2011
TTC #1 since Jan 2013
First appointment with RE 10/2013.
April 2014 - Clomid 100mg CD3-7. HCG shot CD10 IUI #1 done on 4/12/14 (CD12) ....BFN May 2014 - Break cycle to repeat saline sonogram and re-group. Travel to Kauai 5/7-5/12 (Yay!!)
June 2014 - Clomid 150mg CD4-8. HCG shot CD14. IUI#2 done on 6/9 and 6/10 (CD15-16) w/ Prometrium suppositories during TWW .... BFN
July 2014 - Clomid 150mg CD3-7. Ultrasound CD12 - 4 mature follies! HCG trigger shot CD12 AM. IUI#3 on CD13 w/ Prometrium suppositories during TWW ....BFN
July 2014 - Repeat ultrasound done to measure size of fibroid - 8x9cm (the size of a grapefruit!) Surgery referral made.
August 2014 - MRI done which revealed 2 fibroids: a 13x15cm fibroid as well as an 8x7cm one. Super freak out mode over surgery plan. OB-GYN/surgeon said surgery would most likely have to be a laparotomy (open abdominal surgery)
August 2014 - After a 2nd opinion, plan to take Lupron x 2 months to shrink fibroids then laparoscopic/robotic myomectomy. Surgery date is set for Nov 21st!
November 2014 - Robotic myomectomy done (2 large fibroids removed, mild endo found). Benched x 3 months
Official diagnosis: Unexplained IF.
I am 32. I have low ovarian reserve (low AMH), and poor egg quality. I've also been diagnosed with mild glandular developmental arrest (lining problems, detected with EFT).
We are using open ID donor sperm.
IUIs #1-7=BFN.
IVF September 2014 antagonist protocol, 8R,5M,3F, 5 day transfer of 1 morula = BFN. IVF#2 planned for January 2015 (antagonist protocol + HGH).
After all that this morning, day drinking is definitely justifiable. And practically mandatory.

Woohoo I managed to get it in park and my keys out. My car is at the dealership now I'm just waiting on the phone call on how much to fix it. You know I'm Mrs money bags now after paying for my last installment of IVF this morning.
I have miniature bottles of champagne so it's mimosas for me. :-)
What a horrible morning. I'm so sorry. I really hope your day starts to look up. Just try and relax and have a glass (or 5) of your drink of choice.

To top off my wonderful day ..... The nurse called. My progesterone is 1162 when they like to see it below 60. So the month of bcp and over a week of lupron didn't do the trick. So now instead of having my FET the week on 8-12 I'm stuck taking 20units of lupron a day every day until then and hopefully my FET will be sometime the first of September now.
It's officially 5 o'clock here now and since I took a nap it's on as soon as my husband gets off work and we get my car. They fixed it!!! It only cost $100 too, the only good news of the day.
I'm so sorry that you've had a bad day! Good news about the car though. Drink up, you have definitely earned it!

I actually decided against the alcohol and took a Valium instead. It helps suppress my Ménière's spells and makes me not want to kill my husband. It's a win win!! :-) I also went and got a coke and the lupron headache finally went away.
So now I don't give a shit about anything .... Life is good!!!!

Ok this is funny as hell, or it's the Valium talking. My husband charged the battery on the spider and used a pair of hemostat's to fix the cable that opens the trunk. I think he's scared of me. I had to take a pic of his handy work. I'm so impressed!!!
ETA: I think I may go take a ride tomorrow on some country roads with the top down.
