Shot-less

Weeeellll, I guess in trying to postpone my period just through my extended NYC weekend, I ended up spoiling the whole month. Because I never got my period. Well, not an 'official' period as the nurse said. She can't / won't /would rather not give me the Lu.pron shot until I have a full flow. Never got one. I told her I'd been heavily spotting for days. Told her about the extra 4 bc pills I took to put it off for a few days so I wouldn't be in NY rather than GA when i started.

Oh well.

I'm past being upset. It took several days. Poor Z. He tried so hard for us to have a fun weekend and a relaxing weekend before the ivf roller coaster began. And the weekend WAS great. But in my fury after missing this month, I regret to say that I fussed at him and told him that if we had never gone on the trip, I wouldn't have missed the shot b/c I would have had my period b/c I wouldn't have taken extra bc pills. Poor thing. He felt terrible and I felt worse for saying it. I was upset. He says I was having a panic attack. I did end up in the corner of our walk in closet crying so maybe he was right.

Sooooo...anyway. That's where we are. Waiting. Again. I'm not even on bc pills this month. I am so 'off' schedule I didn't know where to begin on the pill cycle! Hoping for a quick month to pass and my period to start ASAP!

Spring Break

Man, where did my Spring Break go!?! It seems like yesterday that I was free from school and ready for a trip to NYC and house stuff. Whew!
The egg hunt Friday turned out well, despite the crazy heat! Our flight to NYC ended up being cancelled so we ended up enjoying a nice dinner, did some last minute packing, and took some more stuff over to the new house.
Saturday morning started early and we were in NYC by lunchtime! We checked in and immediately started strolling the streets. I love NYC. It's so busy but yet can feel homey too. Weird! We ate well, shopped a lot, walked TOO MUCH, and had a great time. We were all over the place-- our most frequent hangout areas were Chelsea and SoHo. :)
We flew back Tuesday and went straight to the new house to meet a painter. We hired him, then shopped for a washer/dryer. bought one! Wednesday the painter painted our office, master bedroom, and kitchen/dining room. Thursday we had appliances and our new bed delivered and we packed and packed. Friday I met my friend Nikki and her little boy for brunch, and then packed the rest of the day! Saturday I did some shopping during the day and packing at night.
This morning Z and I had a bit of a scheduling conflict so we split up to take care of some stuff. Sadie, our pup, and I went to Einstein's for bagels (asiago for me, puppy bagel for her). Then I took her to the pet store to pick out some new treats. She LOVED it. :) Later I hung out with my mom and my sister. It was long overdue! My sister brought her little tiny shi-poo over and my mom had her new puppy with her! It was dog madness at my house! :) They all get along so great though, thank goodness! I took them over to see the progress on the new house then we all went to this yummy yogurt place for an afternoon snack. mmmmm...
Now I'm sitting on my couch for, I think, the first time all week. It almost feels weird. Probably because the house looks so sad. Boxes everywhere, rugs rolled up, artwork off the walls... I hope we get this move scheduled soon! Don't know how much more I can do!
I can't believe school starts back tomorrow. I am so not prepared! Good thing this is CRCT week and kdg schedules are always off b/c of it. Tomorrow will be a fast day!
Anyway, this was a bit of a rambling post! Sorry about that! It got away from me! haha! If you are still reading, bless you! :)
