New Additions

We have expanded our house by eight feet!

Two new kittens, names Izze an Iyla joined us on Saturday.

They are currently in seclusion in a big enclosed shower until they have had the rest of their shots etc..So Sophie and Sadie will have a big surprise waiting for them.

Baxter has met his two fuzzy friends and seems to like them..

All's well, that ends well.

Good News

Well, I just heard from the clinic and right now the way it looks , our donor if they can keep her supressed..will be ready for a retrieval on September 7, with a transfer following just a few days later..That is if thre are no porblems supressing the donor, whatever that means. Hlaf the time I feel like I am in a bad chinese movie...I can see lips moving, but the dialoug coming out is foreign.
So we have only a couple more weeks ..of WAITING. Of course it the results are positive:)) then we will WAIT some more, but in the end, the final result willbe work the marking time and furrowed brows. We all need a lot of botox here..

Until next time when I revisit hell and how we arrived at this destination.

Time is Flying By

Well here we are already into August. Time is certainly flying by. We were supposed to be doing our retrieval/transfer this week. Our surrogate wound up getting cysts on her ovaries, thus forcing us to delay the procedure. Right now the problem has corrected itself and our donor is due to go in on August 7th, to get a progesterone level drawn. We will have a better idea then, of when we can expect the next attempt to happen. We have been told in September, and right now I believe it will happen when it is supposed to.
In the meantime I have been trying to keep busy. I work for a great person (Shawney) and she is so much fun to be around. Levelheaded, competent, and driven ..organized...and everything I aspire to be but am not. At least I have a good example! We spend a great majority of the time just laughing our heads off. She is so easy to work for. She literally saved me. (More on that another time)

I am taking a writing class on line. I have a book in me somewhere, just dying to get out! I just have to get it down on paper. Plus, I am learning piano. By the time a kid gets here, I will be so cultured and well rounded, it will be remarkable. I tried to learn Spanish last year, I can't say I was very good, but that, like anything demands practice. I kind of fell off the wagon with the Spanish, but so far so good with the Piano and writing.
I still have some time, so I am looking for a few new endeavors to start while I wait for all this baby stuff to be done. Time will pass anyway..so I may take up painting and do some Spin classes to pass the time..maybe even a cooking class. Lord knows I could use the help there!
So baby or not, here I come!
