Let me just say one thing before I begin this ramble. Using an Xacto knife as a planer is effing dangerous. I am amazed all my skin is still attached to my fingertips ( Read more... )

Minutiae, minutiae, details, details, details, tiny little specks of nagging things, little "what-ifs" and "wait-a-secs" that cloud my vision and ideals. The minuscule moments of self doubt that I know are silly but pull me to a grinding halt. How do I trust instinct when it's failed me so many times? One simply should take a deep breath and ( Read more... )

I've been kind of meh lately. Well, the last few months to be honest. It's finally starting to bother me though. It may be the cold, it may be the state of the world, it may be a rock in my shoe.

We decided that the newly paid off credit cards were probably bored, and that we should check to make sure they still worked.  SO I had the procedure this morning ( Read more... )

I've tried really hard to not post.  I can't continue to whine about the issues, because it just makes enduring them almost worse, but today I may have found the straw that busted the fuck out of my back and will leave me paralyzed and pissed off for the rest of the days I have here ( Read more... )

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted!  I am still "late", but I've gotten numerous negative tests.   I think we're going to take a break for a while, with the holidays coming up I just don't think we have the extra time or the extra money.  I'll probably get one more round of testing, but I can't do InVitro, and while intrauterine injection is my ( Read more... )

I'm requesting positive vibes for the next week.  I've had a couple of pleasing symptoms and while I don't want to get anyone (including myself) too excited, I'd appreciate some good energy.  :)

That is all.
