howdy everyone.
Ellie- hope the break is just what you need!
CeCeSays- lol on the sex in the bathroom comment! seriously, though, i think humor is one of the best ways to deal with it, if you have the wit. i can't manage that. i usually just look at people like they are crazy, and walk away. i suppose the healthy thing to say is "wow, that really hurt." then at least they will know, and maybe perhaps some will care. there is no protection, really , from hurtful comments.
Sheerejoy- i'm so sorry for the losses of your four angels. your love of your four angels is no different than your love for your son, and it is so right to grieve them.
Jo- my town is small too, i drive hours for a once-a-month support group that is canceled every other month due to no one to show up. honestly, bb is better. and i found a counselor who has also lost two children, so i can call her when i am desperate for someone to understand me.
Judy- here's hoping for you this month! am still tired and m/s, so am not crazy with worry yet. i am scared to go to the doc, though.
Kat- lol re peeing on the thermometer! if i figured it out, i know you can too!
Klee- ???? i'm madly calculating the time zones to figure out when i should check back. my electricity is from solar panels, and we don't have quite enough panels, so i try to keep the computer off as much as possible. but i so want to hear from you!

we had a lovely fall weekend up in crested butte, with loads of color and blue skies. went to a friend's wedding, and did so well until the ****tails after. so many babies and mommies and daddies. and then one lady and her baby i hadn't seen since we were both newly pregnant last year. couldn't stop the tears and had to escape for an hour or so. why can't i just be happy for others without being sad for Yeti and dh and myself?
