I'm so glad that February is here. It brings me one teeny step closer to the next step in my protocol. I'm on day 19 of BCP, and got a new script filled last night. Guess I'll only be using about half of that pack. I will be SO glad to be off them. Other than some teenager pimples it hasn't been bad....but still it's the PILL. Who would have thought I'd have come full circle after 4 years of trying. All Dan can do is laugh and roll his eyes when he sees the tell-tale BCP case.
I've started reading book #2 for 2009 and have been ploughing through it. It's called If You Lived Here by Dana Sachs...http://www.amazon.com/If-You-Lived-Here-Novel/dp/0061130494/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1233613031&sr=1-2
It's about IF and the quest to adopt a child and the subsequent chaos caused by that. I believe it's fictional, but there are some sentences that are just SPOT ON. I had to read them a few times b/c they were SO accurate. I don't have the book with me, but I'll try to remember to pull out a few sentences for this entry. Anyhoo...I'm not done, but so far I would highly recommend it.

something positive
I was reading back through my last several posts and I have to say my life seems pretty craptastic, huh? It's really not so bad, I just tend to only write about IF stuff (it's an IF blog, duh!), and that's obviously a very negative topic at the moment. Here's my attempt at something more positive.
I love to read, I think I've said so before. My positive, optimistic side says that I am going to read 36 books in 2009. 3 a month. I can handle that. The only slight problem is I'm still finishing book #1 and it's the end of January...so I guess I better get going. The good news is that I have easily 36 un-read books at home, so I won't need to buy any! Yes, I am a book hoarder.
I'm currently reading Outlander (which is over 600 pages and the reason I haven't read more so far this year), along with some of the other Nestie girls. I'm loving it, although I told someone yesterday it seems more like a trashy novel at times, with a half naked Damsel in Distress on the cover:-) Guess we need a little bit of that in our lives every once in a while, right?!
In IF news...still on the pill (until Feb 15). Still feels like we're on hold. Slightly afraid of over supression from the pill but I'm trying to quell (don't think that's spelled right) all negative thoughts. Dr. K wouldn't have me on it if she didn't think it would help.
