This is a quick post-on-the-run as Kyson is about to wake up.

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm going in for egg pickup on Wednesday! On fri when I had the scan and bloods they wanted to let the follicles grow for a bit longer, but when the nurse looked at todays scan results her exact word was "wowee!", lol! I have to talk to my nurse this afternoon (public holidays they only answer the phones between 1-2pm) and find out what time I'll go in for pickup. Poor DH though, it's the only day that is really bad for him to be off work. He had a big executives meeting he's meant to go to that's been 6 months in planning! I'm now hoping that if we can get an early slot on the schedule, then I might be ok to be left alone with Kyson in time for him to get to the 3pm meeting... If not, then oh well, they'll have to deal with him not being there.

I'll catch up on the posts and do some persies a bit later on Big hugs to you all!

Not having a great day today. We had a good breakfast out, but I'm feeling a bit cross with DH. I am struggling with some issues we talked about last night and also with the fact that he's been "incredibly tired" since coming home. He's been on holiday FFS! I just feel like the balance is always tipped in his favour these days. I thought we were supposed to be a partnership. Humph. Anyway, I am trying not to stew over it and just think of positive things and ways to combat what I'm feeling. Sometimes it doesn't help just to verbalise these things to DH - I have to also work out some sort of practical solution or compromise in order to make things better. Just feeling so flat.

Amy - I meant to say - Big I think we can all sympathise, no matter how much we love our DHs or DPs, they really ARE on a different planet. I completely understand - my DH goes to band practise every Wednesday night, cricket every 2nd or so Thursday and Poker Fri nights once a month (and a few other odd things here and there), while I am MORE than happy for him to have these interests, sometimes we are having tight arse week or whatever and sometimes I think he feels he 'misses out' on things despite all things he does socially!! I NEVER go out at night, in fact I cannot recall ONE time since Bailey was born that I left DH behind at home except when I came to our meet-up last year (and he had a nice relaxing day as I had Bailey with me LOL). I know its not necessarily the same as the your issues but I think that more often than not the woman in the relationship does compromise a bit more, it just seems to be what happens, and it can really get you down when you feel like you are the one making the compromises or just getting on with it despite your own tiredness. And you are right, sometimes verbalising SOME things is just more trouble than its worth I don't have a solution babe, you know your relationship best but I do want you to know that someone understands. We love our DHs to pieces, but they are not perfect (nor are we LOL). Anyway - if you want to vent, call me or drop me a PM or whatever

Krystie - WOOOOHOOOOOO re the EPU! Hope they get a heap of great emby's

[Bridg]

Naomi- I will be thinking of you tomorrow. What time do you start?

Jacinta- Not good to hear about you being so sick. Hopefully you recover quickly.

Krystie- Yay about the egg pick up. Can't wait to hear how it all went.

Amy- Hugs hun. I totally understand where you are coming from. Leigh doesn't get it either, and then he wonders why I don't have time to sit down.

BG- Sending sleep vibes to Miss E. Fingers crossed tonight is a better night.

Vic- Thanks for the Gimp thing. I might google it when I get off here.

Nicky- How far is it from my place to yours?

AFU, We had a pretty wild storm here yesterday arvo. We were at my mum's which is 30mins away. We didn't have much damage to our house, but the rest of the town looks like a bomb site.
Logan is being a sooky la la today, and only wanting Daddy.

Bridg - It's probably 1.5 hours max. I'm thinking of heading back over your way soon... gotta see DH's grands as much as possible as they are really getting on now. I want to make their final years filled with lots of love and laughter and as much time with the great grandkids as humanly possible, and they are too old to drive over now.

Amy - Big hugs. I hope that Hubs can start to help you out a bit more.
The pics of your girls on FB are just adorable.

Jacinta - sorry to hear you are unwell. I'm hoping all illness has left our household for a few months.

K - All the best with your EPU!! It all sounds very exciting.


It's only 16 degrees here at the moment, but I'm certain it's cooler in the wind. Insane! I'm going to have to get Allira some more jumpers and pants. I just don't have enough at the moment. Struggling to find much for her to wear in this weather... I thought I had a few more weeks up my sleeve.

good luck with the EPU K - hoping it is able to be scheduled around your DH's wor stuff. i know mine was about 11am and i was well and truly home by 2 (and we had a one hour plus trip). be aware you may not feel up to being alone with kyson though - you will likely go under a GA and they can really mess with how you feel. Being responsible for a toddler could be a little overwhelming. esp if he decides to play up or be a barnacle and all you want is sleep

j - hope you are feeling better soon

Bridg - glad you didn't cop much damage. we got the rain over here but not the damage. had a little hail about an hour ago, but nothing came of it

Nicky - good luck finding warm clothes for A! we have lots of warm stuff for E that we were given - but it hasn't turned cold here yet! it's so horribly muggy and yuk almost every day. E is living in a nappy and singlet unless we go out...

AFU - E loves the great outdoors - went to talk to DH in the garden earlier and she wanted down. after all the talk about bubbas not loving the grass i figured i'd try, she'd hate it and then give up - nope, straight onto her belly and commando crawling through the cut grass after the cat!
