I loved Michael Jackson. I used to cry when I saw him perform and yesterday made me quite sad. I think mostly because he seemed to be in such a bubble of a world that seemed very strange to many. Whatever his personal troubles were and I know that people say celebrities just ask for it when they are in the limelight but no one should be so alienated whether it is self induced or not.
Now whatever he has gone through I hope that he is at peace now. No matter what his music will live on til eternity. We have truly lost an amazing talent yesterday, but thank goodness he has been a contributer to our culture.

Back Home
Had a great time this last week with my hubby and now back ducking the dust in my apartment. Getting a new kitchen put in. I am actually getting more excited as they go. I am pretty impressed in how fast they are moving but all the dust and noise is a pain in the butt.
Been feeling pretty tired lately. Getting ready to head to the Berkshires for my dear friends wedding. It's a pretty big event so I am trying to rest up now.
So now I will just sit back and watch a little DVR tonight. While it is silent.

With my Honey
I am so excited to be with my honey. I haven't seen him for a month and I have now been here in PA with him for 4 days. Man I love him. And he was so good in his show. I will be seeing the opening of the second show tonight and I am very excited about it. Meanwhile I get to sit around and get some stuff done on the computer while he is in his final rehearsal.
I went into Pittsburgh yesterday because it is so close and I figured I may as well see as many family as I can before we start our next cycle. I am so happy I went because everyone was in one place and I didn't have to drive all over Pittsburgh for my visit. It was also such beautiful weather.
I have to call to pay the balance on this next cycle. It makes it so real when you hand over the cash huh?

WTF appointment...
First off....I got my period FINALLY! It has completely thrown all plans out of whack but at least I know what is happening. I guess POAS does make it come.
I don't know what I expected from a different doctor, but at least I was getting some sort of answer. He told me that he did not believe that the cause was the HCG shot. He said they routinely give that much and sometimes even less. He agrees with Dr. P that I should have just stimmed a little longer because a few of my eggs did eventually mature through IVM. He did think that the 50% fertilization rate of what was mature was a little low but the Blast we did end up transfering was above average.
He agrees with the protocol plan for my next IVF. Doing Long Lupron starting with less meds when we stim and build up over time if needed. That will also allow us to stim longer.
SO we are moving onto IVF #2 next month. When I left I just started crying. I think I am just anxious about this next cycle. There is nothing left until we start again and I just so want it to work. I will be working on my relaxation and meditation to calm myself.
I also am running out of creative excuses form getting out of family events and cycling throughout the summer is not making it easier. I just hope that eventually when we have a positive result, and I tell them what was up, they can understand.

where oh where are you AF?
I am officially 5 days late today and...yes...I have tested but it was neg and I spotted yesterday a little but it stopped. I really didn't want to POAS, but because I had a dentist appointment, I did. I got over the POAS trigger happy feelings a long time ago because I feel like it is just screaming "No...don't you get it, no!"
Anyhoo, in other news I am excited to finally see my husband next weekend. It has been kinda hard this time he is away. But I have kept myself busy, working and trying to see some shows.
I have my WTF appointment on Wednesday. I asked to speak to a different RE at the practice (It is a group practice) and I want his opinion as recommendation from a friend that is a patient there. I just want to hear his opinion as well a good explanation of what happened with our last cycle as opposed to oh it just didn't work let's just try again. If AF is not here by then I will test there but again...not expecting much.
Have a busy week ahead of me otherwise. So I gotta stay on my toes.
