I'm sooo bad

Candy. My weakness. Always has been, always will be. I gave it up for lent, along with cokes and fast food. I haven't had a sip of anything carbonated or caffeinated (well, except my Infinit nutrition I use for weekend long runs and rides) and haven't considered driving through any fast food joint since February 6th. But the candy? Gees. I was good until March 7th. That was the day I had my biopsy on my back and nearly fainted after leaving the dr's office. I decided candy was the only thing that would make me feel better, and it did. Sadly, I decided about 4 hours later it would make me feel better again! And then again a few days later, and then again last Sunday, and yesterday, and today!! You get the idea. I went to Beaumont yesterday for my 1 day Spring Break today and of course there were mini reeces in the candy jar. And of course I had them. Gees. I'm bad. I've never "cheated" like this before. Oh well, at least I'm ok on two of the three things I gave up.

I guess the only difference on Easter is that I will no longer feel guilty eating candy!

I have been sneaking the Reeses pieces too but my guilt is obvious because I start itching and scratching and then my kid asks me what I ate. I'm a dead give away now. And I still won't be able to eat candy other than pure chocolate after Sunday. Frickin' corn sryup is in everything. It is a conspiracy!!!

Kathleen, I am your cousin Chris Comptons father in law. My wife and I were looking at your blog. My wife will be running her first half marathon in April. I am running my 2nd marathon in April and my 3rd will be the Chicago Marathon in October.I am pretty slow and will be 52 this summer. I hope to break the 4 hour mark on my next marathon. I am still tweaking my race day nutrition. I was very interested in your Infinit drink you mentioned. Do you only use this on training runs or do you use it in races as well? Have you heard any negatives on this as far as upsetting peoples stomach? I have looked at the Infinit web sight and it appeared that you had to order online and was not carried in stores. Anyway I enjoyed looking at your blog. You are very devoted and I am in awe of you triatheletes.

Still here. Still infertile.

Sigh.  Here we are again.  We knew all along we would be able to start the process for baby #2 when Sloane was nine months old.  I had said we did not necessarily want kids that close together, but knew just because we started then did not mean we would get pregnant then.  If I had only known how true that is becoming.  Silly us had started having visions of three kids.  The only way we can have three kids is to have things go smoothly, not lose embryos, and not lose time.  Well, so far we have lost an embryo and a lot of time in the quest for our next baby. I breezed through prep for our transfer in early May.  The stress load was so much less than before because I thought we had it figured out.  We had Sloane as a great distraction.  My lining was better than it has ever been before - by far.  Then, the day after Mother's Day, I found out it did not work.  And I was immediately thrown back into the depths of infertility hell....

Into the Donor Egg World We Go

As I sit down to write this, I'm shocked to see February 27, 2022 was the last post I've written about our IVF journey.  In some ways, it seems like so much has happened over the last year, and on the other hand it seems like nothing has happened at all because we are back to square one. I'll provide a quick summary of the last year, but please understand this won't even begin to describe the true roller coaster ride we have been on.  I actually don't think it is even appropriate to call it a roller coaster because that indicates there are some ups.  Our ride has been more like a train ride through hell. After our failed transfer in February, we decided to take a break in March to let my body rest a bit before transferring our next embryo.  During that time, a friend reached out and told me about her friend that hadn't had success here but did at CCRM in Colorado.  At the time it almost felt like a divine intervention, but I now know better.  We spent seven...
