"The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust;" ~ Ps 18.1-2

I haven't tested yet. It's not because I have such wonderful self control, but because I am scared to near-death that it is going to be negative. Even though I know it won't be the end of the world. I am scared to see only one line on that test.

Matt and I deliberated last night (we both feel the same about testing) and I think I am going to test before we drive the two hours to the RE on Thursday morning. It's just hard to believe that this could have worked...the first time...just one shot.

Two years ago I bought a book for Matt: The Expectant Father. It's been sitting in my nightstand ever since, just waiting to give it to him, it's still in the original shipping envelope, along with a card that I bought for him, "To the daddy to be". I never thought it would be sitting there over 2 years later.

In the mean time I am over analyzing every little thing. I've had continual cramping which seems to move throughout my lower abdomen and fluctuate in it's intensity. I'm peeing almost every 1-2 hours and I'm tired.

I'm still chalking it up to the progest.erone. Which, don't get me started on that! The rest is way TMI and if you don't read on I COMPLETELY understand.

These suppositories are disgusting! I think I'd rather do the PIO shots. I wake up in the morning and the crotch of my pjs are SOAKED! It looks like I wet myself. Supposedly the suppositories are progesterone suspended in gel...well the whole thing doesn't get absorbed, just the progesterone and then the water/gel is left to drain out. It's disgusting.

The other thing with these is yeast infections. I have chronic yeast infections and continually battle them through a holistic regimine of mega acidophilus.

Saturday night I felt very itchy and uncomfortable (still do today), after thoroughly washing my hands I put my finger up inside and I felt this goopy lump. I pull my finger out and it's this huge lump (the size of a large cotton ball) of nastiness...it's off-white, green-ish-blue, and slightly yellow. While I don't think it's a yeast infection I'm sure it's some other kind of infection: LOVELY!

"If you cannot teach me to fly, teach me to sing." --Sir James Barrie

First off I love JM Barrie (the author of "Peter Pan"), and I just felt this was a really good quote: If we can't do one thing, we should find something else we can do. I recommend that you get yourself a nice glass of ice tea and some cookies before sitting down to this post: I'm going to break it up so it's not quite as long.

WOOHOO!!!! Ok, now that I got that out of my system: The 2008 Fair Season is officially OVER! We survived: I worked 30 hours there, and my usual 45 at work, for a grand total of 75 hours! That means that we're back to our regularly scheduled blogging, and there is so much to catch up on.

I actually did manage to sneak Matt away for a few minutes on Saturday afternoon to walk around the fair. I love seeing the animals! Of course it makes me want my dream farm NOW!

Saturday morning Matt and I had planned on going to the fair and getting breakfast and walking around for a little while. Afterwards I had planned on going to B-town (hour away) to do some quick shopping.

I then decided that I could do some Me-Shopping, so I headed to Home.Goods. I seriously love that store. They always have such neat serving items and holiday decor, and great prices. I don't buy very much there because it's nothing we need. Between hormones and stress I had a major splurg-age (that's a word, right?).


Remember in the spring I had repainted our living room? We still had the old area rug in there, that seriously didn't match the blues, blacks and whites. I found a rug in Home.Goods: 100% wool, marked down from $300 to $150.

Yes I keep sheets/blankets on our furniture when we don't have people visiting. The dogs just make a mess of it otherwise. It's hard to tell in the picture but the blue in the carpet (yes, it's there) is the same as the blue on the accent wall. (I'll take better pics later). It's not a perfect match, but it's a rug that will hide the dog hair better and if I repaint the room in a year, it will still match! As much as I do like how bright the room is, I do miss the old color scheme: I really like beiges, reds, greens, and blacks. That's why I love paint, because it's easy enough to change!

Stay tuned for the next installment of CATCH-UP!
