The Veterinarian

The veterinarian takes all of my money! Why is it so expensive?
All of that aside she really made me feel good today! She said she was impressed by how well we care for the number of pets that we have. She also said that they were lucky to have us as pet parents. That really made me feel good and like I was making an impact on their lives none of which started out the best!

Sextuplets

I am watching a show called "OMG! Sextuplets" whilst cleaning my home and it really made me think about what I want. Although I want to be pregnant and experience pregnancy the outcome is what is most important to me. In this time of IUI and IVF I do not think I would ever consider that option. I know that I want one child two tops and IUI and IVF usually produce multiples. That is so not up my alley! Not to mention it just wouldn't be manageable considering we would already be in debt from the procedures. I am glad that these are available for people who want pregnancy, but they are just not for me.
I have been looking into adoption and if I suffer another miscarriage with no knowledge of how to correct the problem my husband and I will be starting the process. It will be heartbreaking to not become pregnant but it will be so fulfilling to be a mother to a child who needs one.
How do you feel about fertility or lack thereof?

catch up

Wow. It has been awhile. Life has been busy.
First they thought our dog Guru, had a spot on his lung. Luckily it turned out to be nothing but it was really scary. I do not know what I will do when they actually find a spot. We took him to the regular vet today and she was shocked by how well he is doing. Apparently she diagnosed 4 dogs with osteosarcoma at the same time and Guru is the only one who is alive and well. I am so glad he is doing well but sorry for the other families who lost their dog.
Also my Mom was diagnosed with MS. Which sucks, but she is on a medication and doing well. Luckily it is not rapidly progressing but it is still scary to think about my mom in pain or having trouble moving her limbs. Well enough of the sad stuff, on to the resolutions.
My resolutions have been going okay. My house has been staying relatively clean and I have kept up on the laundry. My dad's gf has offered to do the kitchen for us so that project is progressing. Unfortunately I will not be having a baby in '09 but hopefully we will be pregnant by 2010. It is really depressing when I my af comes every month, but I'm dealing the best I can.
Now for the book challenge. I have read 47 books so I am definitely going to be able to do 100 this year.
I will be back when I have something new to report!
