So here it is, Thursday (actually, now it's early Friday, but whatever), and while it is blizzing in Pampa, I am in Corinth. NEVER again will I live in a town that does in deed have blizzards, but not the kind that I can get butterfingers added too.

You guessed it! FRIDAY! And the plot thickens....

Weather for Pampa, TX for the next few days...



Guess which day I have to drive to Dallas???

It's been 3 years since Mom died. It seems like yesterday, but also it feels like she's been gone forever. Bizarre. It's been ok though, I've been busy. I appreciate the people that remember--nice to know William and I aren't the only ones thinking about it.

We had a positive ovulation predictor kit test yesterday so today we had the 1st and hopefully only IUI (aka interuterine insemination aka the turkey baster procedure). I've been calling myself a big turkey all day. They took the "sample" from Vic, did a wash, and used a catheter to inject them directly into the uterus. It took about 30 seconds and then they had me lay pretty much upside down on a table for 15 minutes. The best part of the day was when they called me back from the lab to get the testtube of injectables. I walked back there and she said "ok, now put this in your bra to keep it warm. I said "I can't recall ever being told to put something in my bra like this before..." and she said "just dollars, right?" and I said, "Yes, but I quite that job years ago..." and she was STUNNED--I think she thought I was serious because she just looked down as I left.

The procedure went well though, she said that everything looked really good and there was no "resistance" to the catheter, whatever that means. Now starts the 2 week wait to know if it worked, and if not, we'll do it again next month!

Keep praying: fertilization, implantation, and then GROW!
