Re: TTTC Check In 4-13
@abarr723 sorry to hear work has been so crazy, and especially that people are coming in from NY. Wow! Though I get it, my cousin's wife gave birth to their son less than 12 hours before the hospital didn't allow him to be there, and he would have been so devastated to not be in the room. Seems kinda crazy that hospitals won't let a spouse in....if they're coming from the same household they have the same exposure.
Anyway, hope everyone is doing well in these crazy times. I start my next round of stims on Sunday. Really hoping take 2 works! And feeling kinda lucky that I get to move forward with my IVF cycle when I know so many people are on hold, but then again, my first cycle totally failed which was very unlucky so maybe it balances? Who knows, IF sucks all the time for everyone who has to deal with it!
QOTW: I would really like a massage therapist -- my back is so messed up from trying to work from home in improper positioning! Then for the second, I would love to have someone to help me organize/create systems of organization. I always think I am creating a good organization system, but then I don't follow it and end up with a huge mess again in a few short months. I need help LOL.
I love this QOTW! I definitely would like a cleaning expert/maid to help with cleaning. We could also use an organization expert to help with reducing all the clutter we have in the house. However, what would probably be nicer over the organizer is a general contractor to help with all the house projects and fixes we'd like to do haha.
