hello everyone!
Meg, congrats on your BFP! enjoy the next 8 months.
sassy invited me here because I was ranting over in the Jan thread. she said this is a good place to rant, but is it my imagination or did i just read 2 pages about strip pole dancing and blue stilletos?....
.... AND you're talking about moving to a happy thread!
well before you go I have to gripe about DH today. He went out salvaging rock and gravel for our landscaping. we are doing it ourselves and he likes to go and pick up the stuff that that construction companies dump in vacant lots around town. which is cool, it's free and saving a buck anywhere we can is great. we have a sedan, not a truck, so he piles everything into the trunk, back seat and passenger seat. I hate this because dirt and dust gets everywhere. he did this the last time I did FET and i bi***ed about it the whole time, getting all stressed because I think the dirt is toxic. we live in the Vegas area and our soil is not that nice fertile type, it's dusty and sandy and everywhere. I know it's in our air, but i don't want to sit in an encolosed car with a layer of dust on the dash, when i'm trying to get PG! he finally cleaned it up , but it was after I got a BFN last Nov, too late for comfort (not that I blame it on that). Now that I am 3 days after ET he decides to start up again. WTF! Please someone tell me I'm over reacting and the dirt isn't that bad.
he did tell me he was only doing it today and will clean up the car tonight. And yes he did wreck the interior a bit, scratches everywhere, i warned him about that too. Maybe I'll get a mask, then I can drive around looking like I've got SARs on the dash.
the other thing I was ranting about last week was that my step sister gave me the news that she was expecting twins. now I'm happy for her, but then she had to go and say "
I can't believe how lucky I am, I got Pg the first time I ovulated! seems like everyone i know is trying and trying and can't get PG. you're trying, my friends are trying, my other friends have been trying and have talked about IVF." how rude! She had to make it sound like it was so easy for her when really she stopped BCP last May (of course after I told her DH and I we're starting IVF), didn't ovulate for months and was taking P4 to induce ovulation, finally ovulated 6 months later and got PG. oh and she says she wasn't really trying.. yeah right. I said to her, "yes you
are lucky, we are $25,000 in debt for 2 cycles and each cycle is 2 months of BTs, meds, shots, getting poked and prodded while naked, your whole life is turned upside down and there is no guarantee you'll have a baby... we don't have one yet. you are
really lucky". she's like "uh... yeah, well I'm sending you lot's of positive vibes". uh... ok thanks sis. Well i'm over it now, just thought I'd share an experience with people who speak without thinking.
. Actually growing up, we called flip-flop "thongs" also, as you might imagine... leading to some confusion as i got older 
, just realize a few posts back, congratulated meg on her use of the americanism "thong". uhhhh, sorry... that would be fee!
