Hello, hello! It's hard to believe but the Christmas season is over and we're barreling toward the New Year. Our holiday was full of adventure, complete with a five hour drive to Upstate NY; a flat tire and being stranded on the Massachusetts turnpike for three hours because R took the wheel lock key out of his trunk; my sister-in-law dropping not-so-subtle hints that she's having a boy and my mother-in-law informing me that it was now my turn to 'give them a girl'; E getting what appears to be either tonsillitis or mono; R & I coming down with a terrible cold; and the usual gifts, family time and food. Just your typical holiday season!
After our hectic trip home, in which we got up at 4:00am to pack the car and drive from Syracuse to Providence, we made it to my RE appointment only ten minutes late. The nurse declared that the baseline ultrasound was what she would call 'a perfect ultrasound' and said that they would call that afternoon with my plan. After they reviewed all my results, the nurse called back and said that I can drop the Lupron to 5 units in the morning and start taking the 225 units of Follistim at night. The RE is also having me start the Estrace twice a day the same day I start the Follistim instead of waiting until day 5. Hopefully this will help out my lining, but there's no guarantee.
My chiropractor had to cancel all my appointments until after the New Year due to his wife's father dying. Oh dear god. How terrible is that? I know this is completely selfish, but I'm a little worried now because I'm starting the Follistim tonight and I was hoping to stay on track with the adjustments. I know, I know, slap me for being so selfish. I'm going to have to do my Yoga at home this week too, but that's because of the holiday. You don't need to slap me for being upset about that one.
Ok, I have to run now. E is still pretty sick and he's moaning for me to lay down with him on the couch. I can't say I mind. I'm still feeling pretty terrible myself.
I'm hoping that everyone is having a fantastic holiday season and that the New Year brings great news, luck and prosperity to us all.

Oh, man, what a tough "adventure" your Christmas was! How is E feeling now? I really hope it's not mono.
Woohoo for a "perfect" ultrasound!
You're not terrible about the chiro thing. I understand. I'll bet that keeping up with your yoga will help a lot too.
Hope you hava very Happy New Year!
