No new news on IVF for me. I'll be able to make a final decision on timing our next cycle next Friday. Until then, part of me really wants students to register for those two classes that are on the chopping block, but another part of me wants those classes to be cancelled so that I feel more comfortable doing an earlier cycle!

QOTW: If I had to pick a fictional realm to live in, it would have to be Tortall from Tamora Pierce's books.

[fikafairy]

bonzo, I LOVED those books!!! Amazing choice for the QOTW! I can't tell you how many times I read those books, and I really think that loving those books so much sent me down the path of enjoying all of the fantasy/science fiction with a tiny touch of romance novels/series that I devour today.

We have to send the first payment to the PGD probe company whenever we complete the bloodwork they are asking, which will likely be within the next two weeks. While we have the $$ technically speaking, I get panicky sending off any amount of $$ that we have so painstakingly socked away. Especially when it's about half of it!

QOTW: There are many universes I would love to live in, but likely wouldn't have survived - GoT, LOTR, Harry Potter, A Court of Thorns and Roses, the Tudors era (all the books, all the shows) and Outlander. I also would love to live in a real-life Stars Hollow, as I literally just started watching Gilmore Girls within the past month.

ER is over and I'm home. 15 eggs, 12 mature eggs. Now to rest! Not bad for a 41 year old woman! I was initially disappointed because I had 14 last time, and I tripled my meds, and this is likely our last IvF shot, but I did the best I can do, and I'm just glad it didn't get cancelled.

Oops: my ideal fictional world: I feel like I could easily be a member of the family in Parenthood. I also could live in medieval times (I'm thinking Tudor family). I am fascinated with the world of The Handmaid's Tale, but I wouldn't want to live there.

bonzo I hope you find timing you're comfortable with

fikafairy both exciting and scary to be moving forward! I know spending all that money is a shock, even when you have it.

hoosiermama76 that's an awesome ER! Hoping for a great fert report for you.

AFM just hanging out. I'm 2dp6dt so forever to wait. I'm just a sleepy, hungry PIO zombie at the moment. Patience...

QOTW: 100% Harry Potter!
