Approximately 108 Hours....

I guess it is obvious that I am counting down until I can take a home pregnancy test. Saturday will be my 14th day from retrieval and that is when I can take it. Some people suggest that I don't BUT I know my body and my previous pregnancies and that HCG will show up if I am. Not to say that all hope is lost if it is negative, but it was right the last time. My goal this week is to keep myself as busy as possible. If I don't have time to stress about it, then I won't get all in a mess. It is better for the baby...that is my excuse.

It was so wonderful to get back to work today! 3 days at home was SOOOOOOOO boring! I was wide awake at 5:45am, and I think that it shocked my husband when he rolled over at 6 to wake me up and I was alert. That is not the norm. Usually he has to almost force me out of bed! Luckily Tuesday- Thursday I will be busy, but Friday... not so much.... I will have to create things to do. THANK YOU to all of our friends that are inviting us to do something with them, not only for our fabulous company, but also to occupy our time. We are having dinner tomorrow night with Scott & Neilly, Wednesday night I have a Junior League meeting, Thursday we are going to Enid for a jewelry party (well, my husband is not going for the jewelry, but he is coming with me) and then there is Friday. Yeah, I will probably be able to hear crickets chirp. I need to get something on the schedule ASAP!

Saturday night our friends Dave & Amy are coming into town. I have already warned them, I will either be ecstatic or a HOT blubbering mess. Hopefully it is the former one! I heard some horrible news today. One of my former coworkers, who I really enjoyed passed away. She was only in her early 40's. Today, I am thankful for the gift of life. There have been times where I wished it was over, but the next morning am thankful I still exist. It truly is something we take for granted. The song of the day is "True Love Ways" by Buddy Holly and the Crickets. I am a HUGE Buddy fan, a true musical genius who died before his time, and it is my favorite song of his by far.

Keep us in your prayers! We only have a few days left!
