Ultrasound update

So, the ultrasound.

Yes, there were two distinctly separate gestational sacs, one on top of the other in the uterus. Each had a yolk sac inside. There were no fetal poles visible, and no heartbeats to be seen. They are confident that it is just too soon and that they will indeed be there.

I go in for another ultrasound a week from Thursday. There will hopefully be little babies with heartbeats in them at that time.

Anything can still happen, but at this point, it looks like we may never get out of debt! :)

Election Day

I love Election Day. That probably makes me a total nerd but I don't care. I love voting! I love everything about voting! And I /love/ voting in Massachusetts. It is so funny to see almost NO Republicans on the ballot (sorry, Keely)! And then to see the Socialist Worker Party and the Green-Rainbow Party throughout the ballot just puts a big fat smile on my face. I love you, MA!

Several precincts in Boston ran out of ballots this evening. While it sucks for the people who had to wait, it makes my heart happy. What a turn-out! It is so nice to see people getting out there to vote for change!

And they are already calling the election for Deval Patrick, which makes me so happy I just might poop my pants! *dances* First Barack and then Deval. Hooray.

I am holding my breath until I see the results of all of the contested House and Senate seats. I know I will be disappointed but I am so excited about Deval.

I feel honored to be a part of the great Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If nothing else, may we continue to be a beacon of hope and progressive politics for this country. I am so glad we decided to legalize and grow our family here.
