Cyst free and BCP

All clear and scheduled for a March 15 FET.  No reason to expect cancelation again but I guess there is always that risk.  Regular schedule, nothing added.  I am BCP for a couple wks and start Lupron next week.

I hope it goes well.  I now share an office with a gal who I like very much.  She is a very conservative Catholic - I want to use the word Orthodox, but it doesn't sound right.  We all know how those Catholics feel about ART.  Still, I gave her the heads up that I typically bury the bodies when I am on Lupron.  She seems ok with it and I would really regret having to take her life.

Things have changed a bit on my end.  My job has gotten better as I have a new position.  I haven't cared about a job in a long time.  In fact, not sure I ever did, but I sure cared about the money.  Now I do something I enjoy.  The money is much less, but I am happy.  Go figure.   I work for a national cancer treatment center.  I am not patient facing, just an IT hack, but it feels good to be closer to something that matters to me.

Anyhow, I am trying to get it all sorted out.  Work life, home life, next Take Home Baby life (not necessarily in that order).  My boss sent me a career plan and I read it for once.  I never used to read that sort of thing.  I sent thank you cards that were due from November last year.  I took care of a collection agency chasing me for $38.  I actually have the money, just not the time to pay the bill.

Welcome to the whole new me.  I still haven't worked out since 1974, but that might change too.  Next year.  I don't know, that one is too hard.

I am always there reading but usually a week late, right?  I let the reader fill up so much it weighs on my mind and I start to feel guilty.  What the hell is that?  That isn't what our blog houses are for.

My comments at your house are thinning and I regret it.  Comments are the whole reason I started this blog.  I felt like I had to let every person know I was there and I loved what they wrote, etc.  I am a blog loving fool now and I read so many it amazes me how easy it is to keep it straight in my head.  I hang on every word.  Many of you know this as I am also a ball buster when you go silent.  Ha.  Infertile bossy bitch that I am.

Always here, getting a little quieter as I enter DE FET #1 of 1, cyst free, wine-and-coffee-free-dammit, lovingly yours,

Roccie

  2. Just curious why your cycles are cancelled when you have cysts. Sorry to be ignorant but I too have cysts and I am just wondering if I am wasting my time doing IVF if cysts are going to impact the cycle. As far as I knew if your estrogen levels are okay then the cysts shouldn't interfere, but I could be wrong.

  6. That's awesome. It's so great when things work for the better instead of the worse, right? March is around the corner, my dear!
    And yeah...I'm one of the "drop out of sight" bloggies that had to just step away for now. Guilty as charged. It was just too much after the last surgery and I've had to shift focus to keep my sanity. I'm still lurking around as you can see...lol. Crossing fingers for positive news!

  7. A job you like, now that is good news.

    Cyst-free and ready to go is also good news.
    Now I just hope you continue with a string of more ...

  9. Phew, so glad that stupid cyst is gone. It is SO nice to "hear" the happiness in your words. ;)

  10. Please let mine make you feel VERY guilty. I would miss you so much if you didn't come around. But for serious, I'm okay just checking in on you here, and I doubt you need any more guilt in your life.

    I'm so glad things are moving ahead full steam, at least for now. I hope a miracle occurs and Lupron treats you kindly this time. HA!

  11. Excellent, it is all falling into place for a perfect, well-rounded life to welcome take home baby 2.0 A good job makes everything better, after all we spend so much time there. March 15, right around the corner.

  12. Yah, don't kill your co-worker and yay for no cysts and moving forward! March 15 is practically tomorrow.

  13. I like this moving forward. The cyst-b-gone dance I did must have worked wonders. I would post it for you on youtube, but I fear your kind thoughts of me would be shattered. Nasty, don't mean a thing....oh you nasty boys.

    I also hope you don't look at me with any guilt. I have been an cranky creature for a few weeks, so commenting has been difficult myself. Take some time to catch up and all sorts of great thoughts on getting this show on the road.

  14. Girlie, you just wait. After Operation Take Home Baby works... you will have your hands too full for a good long time to read our blogs, let along comment. Which will be damn sad for me because you leave the Best Comments Ever!

  15. Hey. Things are on the right track! The energy is flowing in the right direction. If you believe in that sort of thing. I had a good day today, vaginally speaking, and I now feel like maybe, just maybe, things work out for people like you and me. If you don't mind my lumping you in my category -- sorry if you find that offensive at all!

  16. Yay for cyst free! Sounds like you've got a lot of good things going on. Good luck!

  17. So excited for March (and late February!) and cystlessness and lovable jobs and everything. Now I feel like I should post. Achoo.

  18. Hooray for being cyst-free! I miss hearing from you but always hope that your (relative) absences from your blog and mine are due to your being so happy and busy that you don't have time to write or comment. ;-)

    I am hoping and praying that DE FET #1 makes Operation Take Home Baby a success!

  19. So happy to read that the cysts have left and you are ready for your FET!!! Things sound really good in your world right now and that is a wonderful thing to hear. Ugh, the crazy Catholics...I've run into quite a few of those! I really don't understand such a restrictive, closed religion...just incredibly thankful to not belong to it!
    Sending so much positivity and love your way. Cannot wait to celebrate with you soon ((hugs))

  20. You crack me up that you actually warned the Orthodox chick about burying the bodies! LOL. My great grandparents were Russian Orthodox, so yeah, there are Orthos out there! :)
    Congrats on being cyst free Roccie!!

  21. Hey, I'm glad to hear from you. I get worried when there is no Roccie in my reader....

    But it sounds like you are just full of real life. Congratulations on the new job and on getting clear of that whopping $38 debt. I'm sure it's a load off your mind. ;-)

    Good luck with your cycle. You know I am rooting for you.

  22. March transfer, great new job, and getting the bill collectors off your back? Sounds like things are lining up for you! Now on to hoping that the Implantation and Growth star hops into place too. :)

  23. Thank GOD the beligerent cyst is GONE!!! Too bad you can't celebrate with a glass of your finest...all for a good cause I just know it. And good for you for taking on a new job that you enjoy. We only get one crack at this thing called life and we might as well make it as happy as we can...of course on things that we have control over. Big hugs and SO glad the cyst is gone.

  24. Yes! Yes! Yes! Cyst free = Project Take Home Baby commences.

    And I'm glad that you're in a happier place at work. It makes a difference. To sanity. And state of mind. Less money but more happiness was a wise decision to make.

    And we can feel you out there. Reading, pulling for us (as we're pulling for you). And anyway, everyone has behind times in terms of reading (ahem, guilty as charged). The important thing is that we're here and you're here, and this is the year of take home baby.

  25. Yes, the word is in BOLD; you inspire me to swear.

  26. haha I have reader guilt too ;)
    when did blogging become another one of those things on my chore list?
    Good luck with the transfer if we don't talk before then :)

  27. It would be enough to know that you are happy, cyst free, and take-home-baby ready. Comments are a joyful addition, but not mandatory and certainly not something to let ol' nasty guilt get all roused up. Your presence in any format, dear woman, is an enriching to all of our lives (and maybe the 28 comments on this particular post can help convince you).

    I'm thrilled to read that you are now cyst free and ready to rock and roll. March 15 sounds like a good day for a FET. I will be cheering you on, my friend. A take home baby in December sure would be nice.
