After work I am going to pick out new carpet for our bedroom and tomorrow I have more b/w and another u/s. Other than that, I will be at home relaxing with DH, the pooch, and the kitty. I am on day 7 of stims, so I don't feel like doing too much.
I hope everyone has a fabulous few days!!
Re: Weekend Plans?
I have monitoring in the morning and then an appointment with my needle-phobia therapist in the afternoon (how sad is that). In the middle, I'm plotting some excuse to go to Target because going to Target makes EVERYTHING better! On Sunday, it will be church and then movies on the couch with DH (Reds and The Tourist)...we both worked way too hard this week.
Two C/P and Lots of Tests
Me = LPD + cancer survivor, DH = low count and morphology
IUIs #1-5, January 2011 - June 2011 = BFN
IVF #1 in July/August 2011 = BFP!!!!!
"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear."
I'm taking DH out for his birthday dinner and Sunday I'm running a 10km race that I haven't actually trained for because I didn't want to "push" myself during the 2WW...oops, should be a little painful.
Have a good one!
ETA: I wasn't planning to start training two weeks ago, but I only had 9 days in between 2WW's because my cycle got all messed up this month.

sat: NOTHING!! it's a miracle LOL i'll probably go out and run some random errands, and just may have to treat myself to some shopping after this crazy week I had! DH is working a 12hr shift, so i'll have the day to myself!
Sun: I was invited to a birthday party for a little boy in my class
I was his toddler teacher, and then they moved me up with the class, so i've had him for 2 years, and have gotten very close with his family, i love him, and i love that at least if i can't have my own, i can be a daymommy to my 10 munchkins everyday, so it's nice when they invite me to be included with their family because she says i'm like his mommy when she can't be there
