Hi Kim and welcome! You will find some of the world's

nicest and most knowledgeable ladies here. I have

also chosen Dr. Levin for my TR, hopefully this

spring, will be waiting on our income tax return

money.

I had my TL 5 years ago after giving up hope of ever

finding a good man who'd marry me and want babies. I

found him and we were married October 6, 2001.

Together we have 8 children, but his ex-wife is psycho

so we don't get to see his 5 at all. I have DS 19,

DD's 15 & 7. Good luck in your journey.

Kim,

Fireworks! That is a fun idea for New Years Eve!

How were the movies? We watched one on TV on HBO a

few nights ago, Frequency, it was really good.

Doesn't seem like there is much on anymore so when I

find a good one I tell everyone about it! lol.

Yes, men are just boys in grown-up bodies. is

very mature, but you should see us in Wal-Mart. We go

down the toy aisle pushing all the buttons we can. We

get all the stuffed toys dancing at once! I thought

he was going to freak the first time we were together

and I started doing it, but he just smiled and joined

in and later admitted he was scared to do it in front

of me yet for fear I'd run! lol

We are anxiously awaiting our W-2's now so we can get

our tax money back and schedule my TR. I think I'll

go right now and schedule my consult. woo hoo!

Thanks, Kim! It was enough to make my mood great yesterday - even with a

headache!! Hee hee! Love to shop!!!

Have to share this - baby things mentioned

I have to share my bargain weekend with you all! We went to the mall on

Saturday and while there decided to look around. Well, I spotted this

beautiful crib in one of the stores, and the sign said " Last one - $149 " I

looked at it, and there was nothing wrong with it besides a small scratch

near the bottom that only I saw! It was originally marked $299. Well, I

didn't get it that day, but the more I thought about it, the more I wanted

that crib for such a great price! So, we went back and when the guy finally

rang it up, it rang up as $74.99! So, I got a $300 crib for $75!! We then

went to shop for baby bedding, and I tell you what, I found great deals

there, too! All in all, everything should have cost us over $550 - we got

the crib, bedding, ruffle, mobile, diaper stacker, extra sheets...you'll

never believe what we paid for all of this - $190!!! The crib is a Capri

crib, very light blond wood, and the headboard and footboard are curved

outwards like a sleigh bed! We didn't set it up yet, but I am just so

excited to have gotten such a nice crib and accessories and saved so much

money! There's a lot to be said for after Christmas shopping!!!

You are welcome! I was new not too long ago and they helped me out a lot

too! I kept wondering what the heck everything meant what they were all

talking about!

Welcome aboard! My consult is today at 4:00, can't wait! I'm nervous as can

be!

Actually, no you don't have that many - I keep the countdown days actually on

my Excite homepage and it said to check back later (down or something), so I

couldn't update the actual number of days left. Sorry but I will update as soon

as my Excite page is back working correctly.

Has anyone heard from , , , or ?? I haven't seen

posts from them in quite a while. I hope everything is OK.

well I am just sitting here at work (all by myself) and I want to cry...my

DH (the " D " is not standing for Dear or Darling today!!) will not make a

decision on when he wants to do the TR!!! I have my money and I even have

plane tickets on hold but he says " we need to discuss it!! " I am just ready

to have it over with even if we don't ttc right away. I am thinking about

going by myself!! Does anyone know if I could get myself home (flying)

after a couple of days?? I have an extremely high threshold for pain but I

would probably still take the pain meds...just worried about missing flights

cause I couldn't move fast enough!! Let me know what you think.

Thanks,

That is a good idea, Kim. Our next step was going to be putting the names in a

hat if we couldn't decide! He said he would go either way on girl's names, but

he really wants for a boy. So, we'll see what the votes say!

Hart

Baby names - need some votes

We had a funny thing happen today. Jon and I each had our lists of baby

names we liked, and we decided we would narrow it down to 2 names each for a

boy and for a girl, then vote to decide. Well, I e-mailed him my 2 names

each - boy: Aidan or - girl: () or Molly - and he said

those were his choices too! So, I said, you pick your favorite one for each

and I will pick my favorite, and we will e-mail the choices at the same

time. Well, guess what - we picked the opposite names! I picked Aidan and

, he picked Molly and ! So, I thought I would let anyone who

wanted to put their vote in, do so!

Here are the choice -

Boy - or Aidan

Girl - or Molly

Thanks for the votes!!

Kim!

{{{{{HUG}}}}}}}}}}

So glad to see you back to posting and feeling better!

I've missed you.

Mom is doing pretty well, hasn't crashed for last 3

treatments so that is a record for her. I think they

need to do some more adjusting on her insulin and

blood pressure meds but I'm sure it all takes time.

was quite the trooper. She handled it really

well. I'm so proud of her. She's asked if she can

still go to practice and just watch. I know having a

week off of her sports is about going to kill her so I

think we'll do some power-walking since that won't

hurt her injury. There sure was alot of blood...I

only broke down once though and that was in the car on

the way to the hospital. I was driving and DD15 in

front with me, DH and in back, DH holding the

washcloth over the injury since he's an EMT. Only

DD15 saw the tears, I knew I had to be strong for

so I think I did pretty well. DH was the most

calm having the medical background. The doc let both

DH and I stay in the room with her during the

stitches...that kind of surprised me but I think he

could tell it was helping . Lots of times they

want to kick you out.

Sorry for the book, we just got home and it's way past

time for me to get some rest. The weekend away was

fun. Love time with DH.

Again, glad to see you back hon.

Penny,

I know not all men are selfish, but I do have 3 sons, and there is

just a God-given selfish streak in them. No one wants to help unless

you ask or tell them to. I am sort of on strike with the laundry. I

have been washing this week and throwing it all in a big pile in the

den and letting everyone dig for what they want. I will have to make

them clean this up tomorrow though, as I am having a big birthday

party for my oldest son and my sis on Sunday (20 people). My sis who

has had 2 cervical neck fusions and works full-time as a film make up

artist is a sweetheart and visiting for a month. However, she is

having to help me get ready for her own B-day party, which I am sure

she does not feel like doing either after just finishing up a shoot

for 8 weeks working 12 hour days 6 days a week. My husband is

punishing me for not having sex by going hunting for the 2nd time

this week, leaving the housework, shopping for the party, cooking,

etc, all up to me and my sis. My 9 and 10 yr. olds can help some, and

I did pay someone to mow the lawn yesterday.

As for men, this is my 2nd marriage; been married for 13 years to

this jerk, and he became the most self-centered a**hole after the

babies started coming. One I get out of this thing (I am waiting for

my mortgage pre-payment penalty to go away in Feb, 2005) then I am

selling my house and bailing out. I prefer the company of women more

anyhow (I am not a lesbian, but probably should have been-hehe). I

know they say never say never, but I do not need a man around anymore

bothering me, messing up my bathrooms, kitchen, etc, and giving

nothing back except a paycheck. I make the same amount of money he

does, and supported him while he was out of work for 2 1/2 years, so

I definitely don't need anything except child support. If I ever

become disabled, at least I do have short and long term disability.

Okay, I have been rambling my mouth too much for the last 2 days, and

will shut up now, order a pizza, and crash on the couch for the rest

of the night.

Best,

Kim

> Sorry to hear how selfish he is.. I know just how you feel

painwise. I see other people write that they feel as if they have

been run over by a truck .. well I totally agree with that. For the

first few hours after waking up all I can do is to lie there

groaning, luckily there is no one to hear me!

> Wouldn't it be lovely if these errant partners could feel as we do,

say one day a week! I am sure they would be totally sympathetic then!
