Hello again, I don't have a lot of news but thought I should update
again before Vickie goes away and is unable to post new updates for a week
or so (she'll be moving and without her pc so if you don't see any updates
for awhile that's why). (I'm Vickie :-) The person who runs The Labor of Love if you were interested!)
I am on cycle day 21, 7dpo. I expect AF on Friday
or Saturday depending on if I have a 25 or 26 day cycle. I have no symptoms
so far and have no inkling if we could have been successful or not. At this
point I am really not thinking about it too much because I am holding on by
the skin of my teeth to sanity and reality.
Why, you ask? Well, because
I'm beginning to wonder if school is going to kill me. I took my policy
test last Wednesday and I knew everything on the study guide but the lovely
professor didn't ask much of the stuff from the study guide. She worded
questions in the most obtuse and tricky ways and everyone left there feeling
like they'd been sucker punched. To top it all off there is a huge paper
due to her on this coming Wednesday and while I have started it I am finding
it very difficult to do. It involves interpreting federal regulations for
the WIC program. Now, I don't know if any of you have ever tried to read
and understand Federal documents but it is not easy. They take 20 pages to
say something that they could have said in English in 1 page. So, I'm
frustrated, I'm stressed, I'm cranky, I'm overwhelmed and all of this I'm
sure is not too great for relaxing and conceiving but what to do? My only
salvation is that my two papers that are due tomorrow are done and one way
or another this will all be over by Thursday at 4:15.
Please keep me in
your thoughts and prayers and send me a little inspiration and extra brain
power (along with fertile vibes) to enable me to finish this paper and
actually do ok on it. Sorry for all the venting but hey, this is my life!
I'll try to get in one more update before Vickie's big move but if I don't,
have a great holiday and I'll catch up with everyone later.
