Really Funny!

Jon and I are going back to Austin again this weekend to play and go to a UT football game with my family.

I am doing my longest run while I am there on Saturday but also want to bike a bit on Sunday. I am looking for flat options...and of course coming up empty handed. But, when I was looking for routes, I came across this, and I thought it was hilarious.

Basically people are talking about avoiding going down this hill on 2222, because you can get up to 50-60 mph going down it, because it is huge, etc. Um, ya. Jon and I CLIMBED UP that hill over Labor Day. Apparently it has its own little reputation that us out-of-towners knew NOTHING about!

KC,
Did you ever do group rides with the sugar cycles store in missouri city? You look familiar, before Rhys was born I was riding for the MS150, I think i may have ridden with you through missouri city? Cody Outlaw (Rhys' Dad)

Hey, I jut saw your post on slowtwitch about special needs for IMFL. I remember seeing you and you're new ride at Redman. I'm headed to Florida as well and actually just switched to Infinit with good success prior to Redman. I was told to mix it the day before and let it settle in the fridge for a couple hours to let the foam settle and then leave it in the water bottle or pour it into your fuelbelt flasks, then freeze it overnight. When you pack your transition bags make sure you wrap the bottle/bottles in a small towel.The towel will help insulate but also absorb the moisture as it melts and keep everything else in your bag from getting wet. I plan to put two frozen bottles in the bike special needs bag to switch out. A friend did that at Louisville and said it worked great. Good Luck in Florida!!

Cody - I did one ride out of Sugar Cycles before IMAZ last year, so that was probably around the end of March. So quite possible that was me!

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...

We did it!
