enigo, thinking of you, do what you need to do!beloved, will watch it later, can't wait!
nanette, that sounds much better! i'm so glad your office is so responsive and encouraging. hooray!
afm temp dropped a bit more so didn't bother testing. i don't feel pre-menstrual at all anymore, though. more just waiting and seeing i guess.
not nearly as hopeful as i was the other day!
the lack of PMS symptoms sounds good.
I already have clients calling me to cancel, I am assuring them if they can get in, I can be there. DH will drive me as I am unsure about driving on the snow. This storm is going to be ice, the other ones were snow, I don't know how that is going to affect things. We don't have 4wd.
We also are self-employed and own our own company, but his 'real' job carried our insurance. Self-employment insurance is expensive! *deep breath* We had a consult with our RE to see what paying out of pocket for everything would be. It was manageable, but we decided to play it safe and skip this current cycle.
We will try again next cycle. 
In the meantime, I'm having a glass of wine with sushi! 
GL w/ your test today.
I can not tell you how many tests and plans we've been on since 2001. On the one hand I'm very glad that we're finally getting answers and that technology has advanced so much since we started on this journey, but also really torked off that it's taken this long and I'm 32y/o and "advanced maternal age" (still not getting over that one, btw) and not 23 anymore!! I reserve the right to be both happy and angry about weird weight gain and funky hormones and no real answers for 9 years. I went to the book store last night and got 2 books - one is called When the Cradle is Empty. It was $.39 - so I figured um, sure I'll grab it. It's from 2004 so I don't expect the info about fertility treatments to be accurate, but has some interesting stuff in it about what to say to people who say things like, well just adopt, then you'll get pg. I also got a book on how to deal w/ being a late in life mom - you know since I'm sooo old and will be. 
and 
and the Travel channel dreaming of a getaway.
The u/s showed a little tiny lump on my left thyroid and a really big one on my right. She prefaced the u/s with "We'll only be concerned about a lump that's 1cm or larger." Yeah, mine on the right side was 2.5 - 4 and possibly 2 lumped on top of each other. She couldn't really get a good angle on them w/ the u/s so she wasn't quite sure. She said it looks like there's fluid inside the big one and thinks that's a good sign that it's NOT cancerous. She sd normally she does the biopsy right then but wasn't sure she'd need to so didn't schedule one for today.
