I went for my blood test this morning. I have to wait until the dr calls me and tells me if I am pregnant or not. Last time we did this, my hCG was 10 which is considered inconclusive. They re-tested me 2 days later and it went down to 3.5...which is negative. If the number is more than 25...I am pregnant.
Please....please...PLEASE...let it be higher than 25!!!!!

LIVID!!!
I made the HUGE mistake of telling my new boss to ask people from Corporate to assist with my review. Because I did that, I got 4 "1"'s (Needs Improvement) and it gave me the same STUPID 2% raise I got last year. I have gone above and beyond for this company...no more!
and apparently...she can't keep up with ANY of them!!!
So I started this thing back in April of 2007...reeeeally sad that this is my 2nd post. I really should try and write in this more because clearly, I am not using MySpace or LiveJournal. Facebook is just fun to read some of the things on there :)
So...an update on my life since last April:
- have gone through 3 cycles of IVF
- 1 cycle was converted to IUI (which did not work)
- 2nd cycle was more successful (developed 15 eggs, fertilized 10, transferred 3 - still not pregnant)
- 3rd cycle was completed last Saturday (developed 16 eggs, but only 12 were retrieved. Fertilized 10, transferred 2 blastocycsts...blood test on 2/18).
Well, at least the 2 week wait isn't really 2 weeks :) I was on "bed rest" for the day of the transfer and 2 days after that. Jen came over on Saturday and we watched movies and ate yummy mexican food :) Then on Sunday, she came over again and we played with my Cricut that I got for Christmas. We had a good time. Monday I was moving a little more, but still trying to rest as much as possible. I reeeeeeeeeeally want this cycle to work...getting a little sick of needles!!!
Ron and I went to the store yesterday and bought pregnancy tests but he won't let me take one until next week when we go for the blood test. grrrr! Have I ever mentioned that I am not the most patient person??? :)
I have my annual performance review today. I have no idea what the Corporate HR director said about me...it could be great, it could be..."meh". We'll see. I just want to get it over with.
OH...and after saying for years "I want to sing for a living", I have been asked to sing at 1 wedding and 2 funerals over the next 3 months. NICE! I just have to figure out how much to charge. The woman who is our Minister of Music at church said she would help me :)
Well, my payroll just got here, so I guess I should get some work done. Here's to me actually updating this :) I might even do that 101 things to do in 1001 days that I see all over the place!
