I missed all you ladies. I have been MIA since before Christmas because I had family to deal with and then was out of town for a wedding. I "came out" to my family about IF and that was nice. I let them know that I didn't really want their advice or opinions but that I wanted to let them know what was going on so people weren't wondering, or making inappropriate comments, or talking about m e behind my back. I did get some questions like "what's wrong with you" but all in all it went well and I am relieved.
My VERY young (22) nephew just got married to a young woman who is a FB fan of "I support the Duggars" so I expect lots of babies soon. All the Christmas plays and things involving kids were pretty hard but I am feeling great after having a break from work, doctor's appointments, bills, etc. Getting some time to clear my head was good. DH and I spent time with family before and after Christmas but on Christmas day we spent the day alone kayaking most of the day and came home to eat mac and cheese for dinner. Different than any other Christmas but verys tress free and super enjoyable.
I missed you all and am looking forward to catching up on everyone's progress. Congrats to all the BFPs I missed and hugs to those with bad news.
