Finally back!

Sorry I haven't been around much the last few days. Due to the terrible weather across the south recently, we have been without power for FIVE DAYS. We were so lucky to have in-laws with a kicka$$ generator, but we didn't have cable or internet the whole time.

It's been quite an experience. There are so many sad stories and broken hearts here.

Update on me: I have my last (hopefully) follie check tomorrow AM. I'm hoping they say that everything looks great and that I can trigger tomorrow night...hoping, anyways. My last check was Sunday AM and my follies weren't quite big enough. ER should be Thursday or Friday I guess. Last night was the first time that I've felt bloated and it has continued today. Nothing terrible, just a little discomfort. I'm hoping that's good thing!

I hope everyone had a good Monday!

We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And HOPE does not dissappoint.

    I'm so glad you guys are doing well and are okay!  Thank goodness for IL's with generators!  I know they've been getting passed around a lot here lately just to let people do some laundry or keep a fridge cold.  Good luck with your follie check tomorrow!  Hope things are looking good and you get to trigger!

    I'm glad you are doing well and that your in-laws have a generator!  I've been keeping all the people of Alabama in my T&Ps.  There are so many very sad stories.

    I hope your follie check goes well!  Good luck!
