Not a bad day today
Still haven't gotten around to making the calls I should make (Insurance). Spent the day with my Mom (always fun and occassionally difficult). We went to BJ's, Khol's, the Post Office. We also did some baking. She makes an amazing Sweet Bread and she wanted me to man the healm on a Sour Cream Pound Cake. I'm honestly not a huge fan of pound cake, but you do what's asked of you. Honestly, I would love to make a Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting. But I want to use another soft, sweet cheese in addition to the cream cheese. I need some bright red food coloring, but it has to be flavorless/non-bitter.I know this has nothing to do with infertility or frustration today.Honestly, that could be a good thing. Its one day away from Thanksgiving.We have an appointment regarding donor eggs tomorrow.Keeping that information to ourselves. Sometimes a couple needs time to keep things to themselves.Babies are wonderful. They're cuddly and warm and sweet and unknowingly kind and caring. They look into your eyes and innocently ask you "Life is good isn't it?".I love the smell of their hair, the feel of the skin, the softeness of their teeny, tiny fingertips. Everything on them smells like baby powder. They're warm and inquisitive and so fascinated by the simplest things. In turn, we're fascinated by them. I know they're not babies forever and they grow into nay saying two year olds, wacky, screaming 4 year olds, initially frightened 5 years on their first day of school, fiercely independent 9 year olds, know-it all 13 year olds, hormonally awaked 16 year olds, financially strapped 18 year olds, completely in-debt, don't know what I want to do with my life 21 year olds and then they're gone.Where are they already? Who knows? we may meet them tomorrow.I'm going to try my best not to feel the urge to cry tomorrow. Its just a consultation/introduction. It doesn't mean that may eggs are viable or good.Drinking more wheatgrass has actually helped with my hotflashes.I really didn't have one today, so that's good isn't it?So that's it for me today. I really want to finish reading Twilight, but I can't seem to finish the book. I'm not a real romance fan. I actually read The Lost Symbol in less time.I'm sure I'll write about what happened tomorrow.
