DWTS Week Two

Posted Tuesday, September 30, 2008 4:15 PM

I really had mixed emotions last night with the quality of the dancing. I think it was way too early in the season to throw the Rumba and the Paso at these contestants, and that it was really too early considering how few days they had to rehearse. But

Just another Monday

Posted Monday, September 29, 2008 12:36 PM

So, it's just another Monday... kind of boring and quiet, back to the work grind. I heard back on my final bloodwork this morning, and everything came back fine. I don't have insulin resistance or any other issues that would be affecting my cycle, so

Moving forward

Posted Monday, September 22, 2008 4:28 PM

I know I have said this before, but I really love my doctor! After I talked with her last week, she spoke with a friend of hers that is a fertility specialist about my situation. Two days later she called and told me that her friend recommended checking

Good news & bad news

Posted Wednesday, September 17, 2008 8:07 AM

The good news... I finally talked to my doctor yesterday afternoon, and she says that all of my hormone levels appear to be normal from this last round of bloodwork. The bad news... the reason that my cycles are so irregular is probably a result of my

The effects of Hurricane Ike

Posted Tuesday, September 16, 2008 2:14 PM

Living in Dallas, I never thought I would have to worry about a hurricane! And we really didn't have to deal with much here in terms of weather, at least not anything close to what Houston and Galveston faced. My heart hurts for all those that lost homes

Quick update before the weekend

Posted Friday, September 12, 2008 4:56 PM

Dr. just called and left me a voicemail. She said that my bloodwork looks good, that my estrogen & prolactin levels were totally normal, and the there was only a slight imbalance in my progesterone levels. So, that's good news... but not an answer

This little piggy...

is BROKEN! My husband broke the toe next to his little toe on his left foot today. The irony? He was getting ready to go see the orthopedic surgeon about problems he's been having with his knees! So, he went to the doctor talked a little about his knees

Trying to make it over the hump

Posted Wednesday, September 10, 2008 10:22 AM

It's Wednesday, Hump Day, and it's one of those days where I am really struggling to make it through the work day. It's kind of yucky weather (rainy, humid and cloudy) and most of my coworkers are in a quarterly meeting. It's really quiet up here with

A new week, a new attitude

Posted Monday, September 08, 2008 8:19 AM

Well, not really a new attitude, more like a better version of the old one. My husband and I spent pretty much the whole weekend cleaning... He organized and cleaned his office, I worked on the other bedroom/work space and we both straightened up and

Good day

Posted Thursday, September 04, 2008 8:10 AM

Happy Thursday! It's been a pretty good week, especially since it's been a short one. I love long weekends, but the work load afterwards is always a little crazy and the four day weeks seem to drag on longer than a regular work week. But for whatever
