"What Faith Can Do"

Found that song I heard the other day... Dealing with infertility has challenged me on so many levels, especially, my faith. This song spoke to my heart. I needed it the other day. I need it today.

The glimmer faded.

Well, today was GREAT in many ways: received news of a contract extension, received news of a brand new contract award, passed an audit and, MOST importantly, DH cooked dinner! Yay! Love that guy!

Bad news. Just received word back from the (stupid) people who made the offer that their original offer *stands*. UGH! We came down 4K and they stand by their offer of about 10% less than our last appraisal?? Um, no thanks.

So, we wait. We will wait and see what comes our way next.

On my way home today, I had the radio off for awhile just trying to clear my mind of all the business of the day. I turned it on about 1/2 way home and my radio was on a local Christian station that I have on my preset...I forgot I was listening to it this morning on the way in. This song I've never heard was just coming on and it spoke to my heart. I love when things like that happen. At that very moment, that is EXACTLY what I needed to hear! Now, I need to find the artist/CD and listen to that song every day! :-)

No news, yet.

Notta, nothing, zilch! It hasn't been quite 24 hours yet (still have about 7 minutes :-)

Don't they know I am not a patient person! My patience tapped out a long time ago!!!

Waiting, of course.

UGH!

A glimmer of hope

Guess what?! Sue, your vibes are working! Thank you, hun!

We got an offer today! Not a wow, OMG, get all excited kind of offer, but nonetheless, it IS an offer! That is my 1/2-full-kind of attitude. DH was not too happy with it though...

We countered tonight. Not getting too excited, just going with it. Another twist in this roller coaster of my life!

Keeping Busy

I have been so busy with work again the past few weeks that I cannot believe it is October! I expect it will be this way for quite some time. The good news, it keeps my mind busy with work-related things and not dwelling on baby-making things!

I went to my obgyn appt earlier this week to talk about clomid for DH. He was unable to go with me which bothered me, but turned out better I think because my doc was very open with our conversation and asked questions that she may not have if he was sitting there. Bottom line, she said that she is not comfortable prescribing clomid for him and not monitoring him just in case he had some side effects or something. Fair enough. She asked me if he has seen a urologist ~ and I explained that yes, but the urologist doesn't address male fertility. She asked if I had heard of this other doc ~ no, I had not. She asked if I was interested in visiting with him? Sure, he's local. She called his office right then, asked if they were taking new patients and gave me his contact info. Talked it over with DH afterwards and we just need to call and schedule an appt now. It will be one more step, one more appointment to look forward too.

Nothing new on selling the house. We lowered the list price by 6K last week and have not had a single call. UGH! Each day, I go back and forth on if we should sell.... Could we stick it out here, live this tightly and not seek more treatment for a few years? Some days, I think we could. Other days, no way! Yesterday, I was thinking maybe. Today, I am thinking nope! I imagine this is what bipolar must feel like! LOL
