Am I the only one around?!?!? LOL... Just kidding. Maybe everyone is off getting lots of BDing in!!! (I hope!  )
Tell me something you accomplished today... It could be big or small, just anything that you're happy you got done!
Today I did 4 loads of laundry and hand washed all the sweaters that have been piling up waiting to be cleaned from both DH and myself. I also learned something- I'm a very messy eater! I found lots of spills and stains on my clothes this week! LOL

Lurking for the most part here too. I am on day 4 of spotting - just waiting for AF to arrive. I hope she gets here and leaves so I don't have to reschedule my appt. Maybe she will be nice and be short and sweet like last month (2 days).
I took books back to the library, took AJ to the park for a picnic and playtime, did some digital designing, read a book and made dinner (currently making actually).

The shot itself was not as bad as the anticipation. Plus I iced the crap out of my stomach LOL. I literally had ice on it for about 20 minutes. Long enough for my skin to burn more from the ice than hurt from the needle pinch! I was really nervous cleaning the needle, remembering to put air into the vial, drawing the Lupron, tapping out the air bubbles, swabbing my stomach, and ultimately biting my tongue, saying a prayer, and jabbing myself with the needle (I am such a wimp!). But I felt really good afterwards - like a huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders. If I can do this, I can do anything (well, actually, let's see if I still feel the same way when it's time to stab my as* with the 1.5 inch 22 gauge needle)!
Thanks for asking!!

Oh wow!!! I'm impressed with your bravery! I'd probably still be looking at the needle trying to gain the courage to inject myself! And I'm totally not afraid of needles or anything! I just don't know that I could inject myself! LOL... Good for you!!! I'm sure it'll become second nature to you in no time (hopefully before you have to start shots in your butt!)

Aw, thanks ladies. I finally just closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and jabbed. It's not that bad once you do it. It's kinda like throwing up - the anticipation is much worse than the actual event. At least for me. I'm a huge puke-a-phobe. But I digress.
