YOM

Oh my gosh, I made the yummiest dinner tonight! It was so good that I just couldn't stop eating it, and here it is over 2 hours later and I am still SOOOO stuffed. *burp* I took a pound of ground chicken, browned it, dumped in a jar of organic marinara, added garlic and spices and a ton of spinach and simmered it. Then made ridiculous amounts of whole wheat pasta. YUM!

It's really hard to come home from hectic work and prepare some sort of good food for just myself. I get home and just want to crash and burn. I don't want to think about doing all of the chores around the house, I don't want to think about spending another night alone, I don't want to think about all of the packing that needs to be done or the jobs I need to apply for. I really just want to plop on the couch under the blanket and use the computer and watch trashy television until I crash. Too bad I have to be all responsible and stuff.

Gosh, that pasta was good, though. Mmmmmmm.

p.s. Thank you to everyone for all of your congratulations and love and all of that. My official scheduled blood test is tomorrow morning. I could have moved it up when I got the positive pee tests but today was too hectic for me to want to start it earlier. Please cross your fingers for a nice, big, healthy number! I'm nervous.

I did the same thing last night. Engorged myself on pasta slathered with sauce I made from scratch with my own two hands! Err, which I of course loaded with meat. Yum! Still so full!

And my fingers are crossed for you! Well, the fingers of one hand are crossed, the other hand is holding a crochet hook and soft yarn at the ready.

And I'm so stealing your icon.

Long-time-lurker and ex-FF-buddy here saying - congratulations and welcome to the preggo club! I swear my ovaries also knew they were on borrowed time before IVF and it made them shift their arse into gear. I'm sooooooooo glad you had success with the IUI's. Can't wait for your blood tests and first scan results! xxx ooo Mermaidgrrrl
