Still kickin'!

I am still alive though I haven’t posted in a while. I have no good excuses except I have been busy. Cycle is still going. I had my u/s and blood test on Saturday and Dr. BT was very pleased…8mm trilaminar. I believe he even uttered the word “Super” in describing what he saw on the screen. Last cycle I was only at a 6mm on my first u/s so we’re doing good so far. I even got a reprieve from having another blood letting and wanding session tomorrow. My next one isn’t scheduled until Saturday 5/6. Lovely, huh? :) Works for me though! Hopefully everything still looks good on Saturday though! Keep your fingers crossed!
In other news, work has been busy and will continue to be that way for a while (that’s not really news though, huh? More like the norm!) Oh well – it’s ok. It keeps me distracted. LOML and I have a trip out to LA planned at the end of the month which will be fun. My friend is having a party for her new production company, Nontourage
It’ll be great to see her and attend the party. Hopefully I won’t be too drugged up at that point – I’ll be in the middle of the “2 week wait” by then (provided all continues to progress) and have to work around a potential blood test scheduled. We told Dr. BT about our plans out of town and he said it shouldn’t be a problem. He’ll work with our schedule. As we get closer, we’ll remind him since I am sure he won’t remember.
It’ll be nice to get away. A little distraction. It’s the weekend before we find out potentially how IVF #3 fared and before I turn the dreaded 30! I will need something more fun to think about then all of that. The ultimate plus of it all is being there for my friend and show my support. She’s been working really hard at building her company so I really wanted to be there. Initially, I was afraid that IVF would (again!) get in the way. I mean we all know how it just takes over. I mean it’s still my priority but it is tough at times when your whole life just stops for these 6 weeks. You feel miserable. Look miserable and are generally speaking an awful mess. You become even more obsessed (if that is possible!). Your butt hurts from the progesterone shots. And overall become a certified recluse! I think a little livin’ will be good for me – us! :)
Ahh well – we shall see how the days will go and how this cycle progress. I am hoping for the very best, but aware of the challenges I am facing. Nothing I can do but let things take their course.
In the meantime, I’ll continue to keep myself busy with work and finding an outfit for this LA shindig – not an easy feat considering the fashion designers are conspiring against me and my less than slim frame these days!
Hope everyone is doing well out there in the vast Internet World!
