I was looking at the calendar, trying to figure out when we might start insemming if we finally do get our act together. Probably not this cycle (I just started my period) because that’s right when we leave for vacation. Maybe it would work, but that’s too soon, anyway. Okay, so more likely the soonest [...]

detachment
Posted in TTC, life, nothing, self, work on July 17, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
I’m having one of those days where I feel detached and yet everything around me is defined in merciless clarity.

She got home from work fairly late, which is normal for Mondays, and as she was eating her dinner, I eagerly started [...]

Here’s the longer version of the story. A few weeks ago we had asked a friend of ours whether he would be interested/willing to be our donor. We asked him to give it some thought and not decide right away, of course. He wasn’t the first one we had asked, but he was the first [...]

I’m excited about this, so I just have to post a quickie–it looks like we have a donor! We have to work out the nitty-gritty stuff and make sure we agree about the specifics, but he said he would be interested in being our donor. And my back is doing so much better, so I [...]
