Stalking the Stacks with Library Lil
*Stalking the Stacks with Library Lil* |
2002-07-11 I realized today that I haven't written in a while. In fact not since my Aunt Ruth died on July 1. Not that we've had a funeral (she was creamated and her kids can't decide when to memorialize her) but still. I'm really sad about the Aunt Ruth thing, She's my great aunt, my grandma's older sister. While I hadn't talked with her in a few years, I always loved the stories she told about growing up. And of course she had custody of many of the pictures of my great grandparents. So now we wait for her kids to decide not only when, but where to hold her memorial. Kind of sad really.Also of course there is the matter of my "project" as Jessie called it in an e-mail. For the record we got 24 eggs, 19 fertilized and last week they transfered 3. We find out on the 17th. I don't know if it is working, I'm cramping and my progesterone check came back low. I'm hoping though. Other than that not much has happened. I'm really tired all the time, sick in the mornings (all that progesterone) and mainly a little anxious. My brother is coming on the 18th and so I won't have time to be depressed. Work is keeping me insanely busy, or at least it seems that way because I'm so tired all the time. Evrey night I've gone to bed at 9:30 pm, after making myself saty awake that long. I'm not much fun at home. Husband though has been great--he's taken me to all my appointments, even the blood work ones where you go in, have blood drawn and leave. Plus he's been real understanding about my exhaustion. He did tease me the other day though. I mentioned that one sign you were pregnant was food cravings and how I didn't think I'd had those. His response was--"Lil, you are a walking food craving." Which is essentially true. At any rate, I'll let you guys know how the "project" turns out. Not sure I'll write much til then. So much for documenting my experience!
