It is hard to be positive right now. My heart aches for the loss of Robbie, a 18 year old boy who was swept away by the river this Sunday. It has been a hard couple of days.
 
My emotions are running high today. I am full of tears. Everything makes me cry. Hubby and I were at each other over the weekend. He had to give up cigars and was going through nicotine withdrawals. I lacked pity considering I gave up nicotine, caffeine, and my entire diet. Then add in that I was PMSing all weekend.
So, today was the start of my cycle. A milestone in the IVF world. I called the clinic and got the go ahead to start Birth control tomorrow and continue with it until the 14th. I will start the Lupron on the 9th. The suppression phase has begun. 
Then I will be waiting for Aunt Flo to show once again. There is alot of waiting in this process.
 
I am feeling a bit down today. Mainly I am exhausted. My body is tired but my mind is racing and won't let me rest.  I hate that!

    Wombat...I didn't know this kid personally. My oldest did. She stated a very sad fact today that just broke my heart though. In the past three years she has buried 8 friends.

    This was one of the hardest though because the kids all hung onto hope that he would show up alive.

    Hormones do kick your butt. No doubt there. I think the next month or so I will bouncing all over the place with them but, hopefully it will be worth it in the end.

    Lucy...I don't know why the PMS was so bad this time. Maybe it wasn't PMS at all and I am just an emotional basketcase right now. I am crying all the time for no reason. I think it is just overwhelming and I am having a hard time keeping my feelings in check.
