Obviously, I took a pretty lengthy break from the boards, mostly by accident. After my last IUI BFN, I didn't check in as often, then suddenly it had been weeks, even months, since I had been on here.
I really missed you ladies and all the check-ins, but I have been really crazy busy and basically ignoring IF altogether. They changed my job at work, so I have been doing double duty lately. I am moving up to 7th and 8th grade next year to social studies from my current position in 6th grade science, so it's quite a big change. I've been in planning meetings for both subjects and all three grades and we are purchasing new books and a new curriculum for next year, so everything has to be planned from scratch.
I have also been tutoring like crazy to save up money and doing a bunch of promotional stuff for DH's band.
Well, I can ignore IF no longer because I finally made my consultation appointment for IVF! Our last day is June 13, so I made the appointment for June 14! Since I want to keep my schedule wide open this summer, I have had to do a ton of work for next year now instead of over the summer.
I'm excited to get the ball rolling again and I am excited to be back on the boards! Thanks, as always, for all your support!
