Hi Wishfull!!! I am here, just got to work and my day is already shit.

You know how I told you there is one co-worker that gives everyone trouble?? Well I asked the two other ladies if they would back me up to the big boss...and they said "keep me out of it!" NICE RIGHT!!! And one of them are supposed to be a close friend. I always back my friends when I have agreed with them. This makes me so freaking mad. I am so done helping people out.

Anyway...sound like you are having hectic day too???

Morning ladies!

You guys ABSOLUTELY have to follow this link! I can't stop giggling!!!!

http://icanhascheezburger.com/2008/12/0 ... atch-this/

Angie!!!

It's so great to have news, but SO SAD that you won't be around too much to play with us!!! Can we say INSTA-BAWL for that one too??? :(:(:(:( Hang in there sweetie, and we'll be glad to see you whenever you can come take a peek! By the way, looks like you had a great b-day!!! You deserved it girl! woohoo! :D

Miracle,
Hey sweetie... about the warning, well, you can't be too careful. I'm so sorry about what you said... talk about a horrid day indeed!!! What usually helps me to distance myself emotionally from someone annoying is to consider them as people with limits who need to behave a certain way because they are more fragile. It helps me have the patience to deal with them and remain calm, not let them spoil my day. Isn't there an HR person you could talk to about this? And about your husband, I can imagine how stressful it must be for you guys. But you can't keep worrying in advance thinking constantly about the "what ifs", especially in this economical context. I'm sure you guys are careful with your money right now, and you're doing everything you can`you can't possibly do more! I'm particularly saddened by your husband's comments about tmt. I understand his point, but, same thing, he didn't have to make a judgement based on a "what if" that hasn't happened and might not happen. The least he could do is let you keep dreaming about the summer and anticipate your first tmt with joy. Remember how it was, last fall, when things seemed desperate. The wind finally turned and you guys were up and running again. And the bad economy was there at the time. So I'm sure that, even if things look desperate again, they won't stay that way. I'm keeping everything crossed for you dearest. *HUGS*

Carolyn,
Glad they found the problem with your car! Prague is just around the corner! Can't wait to have news!!!!

Angel must be close to her dream destination right now... lucky girl!!!

Well, nothing much on my side. Just boring work, not much to do, and cold weather. Still don't sleep very well because of my nose, same for DH, but it will pass. On the 28th, I'll leave with two colleagues for a 3-days convention for work, all expenses paid. My colleague is a genius; she checked the site and realized it's a HUGE spa... and she suggested we get massages and some spa time during the convention (not all presentations are interesting or pertinent to us). My insurances will cover the massage, and I'm considering a full-body exfoliation... I've only had one in the past, but it's a clever choice because you get two massages instead of one... I can't wait! :D

Okay ladies, take care! And enjoy the link! ;)

Sophie - ooo yes enjoy the pamper - are you ok to have both those treatments cos not sure you can have massage in 3rd trimester .. just know that cos friend has beauty salon .. although Lee our resident holistic therapist will know more ... what about hot stones amassage that is more gentle but just as relaxing.. in fact more relaxing than normal massage .. I know they need to be careful with massage oils etc.. am sure you know that anyway !!!!!

Off to bed am knackered just back from gym and killer wave machine - burnt 1546 calories off and did 19.5km .. needed it though after binge tea!!!

Hi girls. Hope you are all well.
I also am so excited for the american idol!!! I love it. Don't laugh but dh and I also are into bachelor, that was on last night and gives us tons of laughs.

I am ok today. Took the long drive for the bloodwork, my beta is not all the way down yet so I still need to go back next week to make sure it is then but it is surely close. Approaching some finality of this one and gearing up to get ready today. The blood lady was so nice to me, I needed it and really appreciated it, gave encouraging words and such. Took an inventory of my meds and think I have pretty much enough for almost the whole ivf cycle, some left over from iui, some donated from some kind person out there and a just as kind nurse who saw my pain and made me the recipient. Today I am ok, who knows tomorrow but I will take ok for now.
Spent some time with two girlfriends earlier, my one friend is crazy!! I am not kidding around, I think she is nuts. There is all this crazy inlaw stuff on my dh side and she is my sis in law and I am so sure she is nuts. Too long to get into but it really freaked me out big time. I am sure she is starving herself ( trust me I know this from my own past experiences with crap like this ) and, well it was just wierd. Very wierd

DH is at friends sons bris (the one I went to see Sat), I chose not to go, I hate to put it like this put I felt as if I did my time when I went sat. We arent of the jewish religion, I have never been to one, and it just wasnt the time to start now. I think Dh got it but who knows.....

Miracle, Regarding girl stuff at work I totally get it. I am a nurse, I work as nursing supervisor for a hospital perdiem but I am telling you .....my job is so hard b/c of the women. The male nurses never make a peep, they do their job and that is it, the women, omg, they complain, and get attitudes, scream, it is unbelievable. I am in constant shock of how they can treat others. I love women but jeez, why cant some just get it together at work. I cant even stand it and I have no advice....if some comes to me I will let you know though.

Car-have fun in prague, I think you burnt more calories than well I dont know, wow!!
Sophie, enjoy massage, I am having my first one on monday night, courtesy of dh and my increasing stress and mental instability (ha).
Ang- we will have to chat AI tomorrow
Beck and lee thinking of you.

Good evening everyone,

Renee thinking of you for tommorrow, hope its not too bad for you, have you heard of rescue remedy, not sure if they do it in the states? its a herbal remedy in a liquid form that you can put on your tongue or in water and sip it. I have used it loads over the last few weeks, whenever you get that knot in your stomach and you want to cry BUT you are in a really public place where you do not want to let go, it helps within minutes and calms the emotions. Over here you can just buy it in the chemist. I guess all those feelings we all go through every now and again, I was thinking today how it would be ok for me to adopt if I don't end up with my own child. Its funny because until I had my sisters donated eggs I couldnt even think about adoption, get all those feelings out on here especially if it helps you to write them down, once they are voiced they dont seem so scary I find.

Sophie like Miracle the warning message made me laugh that was so funny and so thoughtful as well!! :) Just think when your baby is snuggled up in the crib blanket you can look at it and remember the pain stakinghours it took you sew, then you will look at your babys face and it won't matter if it had taken you 2 days to sew it!!
Enjoy your SPA it will be like a little holiday break, how much time will you get off from the work thing?? I am going to check out the link after I have finishe here.

Becky, as I have just said to Renee have you heard of rescue remedy? Has really been a life saver for me, so pleased you have found something you wanted to plant and you can look forward to the blooms. I know what you mean about wanting the treatment over so you know where you stand I really feel like that now as well and am almost wishing this year away so I can get on with how my life is going to be one way or another!

Miracle hope your day tommorrow is a better one, is there anything you can do about the 'devil' at work? Aww your not done helping others or you wouldn't be here. what would we do without you? :cry:
I know the economy thing is really bad everywhere, I had DH tossing and turning in bed last night worrying about his work he is self employed architect and no one right now wants plans for extensions etc!! Now I would't have minded if the tossing and turning included me ! :wink: :wink: Maybe your DH is just voicing his worries out loud? Things will change they have to, we all just have to try and ride it out, hope for the best, and keep the PMA going, the summer is a long way off yet...
I agree I think we should have a photo spread of Sophies work what do you think, am I right in thinking Sophie is the domestic goddess of this thread or did I get that wrong and it was someone else??

Carolyn, glad car got fixed but then I suppose that meant you had to go into work today? I have been a busy bee went on a 24/7 parenting course today about how to learn how to handle troublesome teenagers!! It was very enlightening to say the least, I had a little thought to myself thinking God, I am here to learn about teenagers and I havent even been through the whole baby thing yet!! I am kind of doing this all back to front does that mean I will be a perfect parent when its finally my turn!! :lol:
Thinking of your friend and hoping things are ok for tommorrow, The week is flying by not long now for Prague! :)

Angie don't go too far away just getting to know you, glad you liked the flowers :)

Yeah massage is fine in the third trimester just has to be gentle, and any oils used would be pregnancy safe oils. I have massaged a few pregnant mums now. You may be more comfortable to sit on a chair or have the bed raised rather than lying on your back. I massaged a mum right up until she gave birth a few years ago, when she had her baby I went to see her and the baby was really unsettled. She asked me if I wanted to hold him so I did and started talking to him and massaging his hands, he settled within minutes and went to sleep in my arms, living proof I think that your baby can feel and hear when you are carrying him/her.

Well I better go to bed now I have caught up with you all, sorry mega long post have only had chance to sign on once today!! :)
good night everyone xxx
Finally I am a mummy, we are about to adopt our beautiful little girl xxxxx
