In two days I will be going for my frozen IVF cycle! :-) I am praying, hoping, crossing my fingers that this time works. I began my Progesterone shots in the hip Friday evening. I was afraid of them and Mike giving them to me but they aren't that bad. Monday morning I started my Heparin shots and WOAH LORD!!!! At first when Mikey was giving it to me I couldn't figure out what everyone was complaining about. UNTIL, he took the shot out then the pain kicked in. It literally feels like you have a bruise and someone is pushing on it. The pain only lasts a few minutes but it leaves one heck of a place on my stomach. I told Mike last night if I do get pregnant I won't be able to do the naked belly pictures unless someone is really good in Photoshop. I don't know that I'm that good at covering up the spots.

I've gotten all of my Christmas trees up except the big one. I started working on that one last night and I got it about half done. I'm hoping to finish it tonight so I can put stuff up before tomorrow evening. I need to clean the house up tomorrow night since I won't be able to this weekend.

I've scrapped some more pictures:

New Layouts:

Well that's it for today on the layout front.

Tomorrow(Thursday) is my ultrasound so we are finally onto something else. Friday I get to start taking the big shot. I'm a little scared of Mikey giving me that one but I'm sure he'll be fine. Will post more later I'm off for the day!

Friday

Well I have been busy all week actually scrapping. I decided I would take a week off from designing and get my own scrapping done. I meant to post some layouts yesterday and didn't get around to it. So I'll do that now:

Cindy & Amy got here Wednesday evening and will be here til Monday. I stayed down at Mom's last night for a few hours and visited. Amy is going to go clean with me tonight and then everyone is carving pumpkins.

Mikey's Grandpa George is now in the hospital because of his defibrillator. The done surgery on him yesterday to take it out so he can get over his infection and then they don't know what they are going to do. They didn't expect him to make it through the surgery but he did! That was a huge bonus. So now we'll just have to wait and see.

Rainy Tuesday

Yahoo! It's only been 4 days since my last post. Maybe this is a sign.
Well we didn't do much this past weekend. I had a yard sale Saturday and made a whole $31 and some change. That was really worth the effort. Big difference from the $600 I made in August at our yard sale. Oh well, we learned our lesson. No more yard sales in the fall.
Sunday we went to Wal-mart, rode the cycle, ate at Texas and then went home. I done some scrapping for a class that we will do if I can ever find a free weekend.
Yesterday I made Kayla's party invite. Which I thought was very cute. You can see it at these two links: http://www.polkadotpotato.com/gallery2/showphoto.php?photo=3538&cat=all&limit=last7 or http://www.digishoptalk.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=199758.
Don't forget that the potato bar is on until this weekend.
Later!

October Potato Bar

Oh My! It's been a month since I have blogged. It seems as if everyday I get something piled on to do. I don't even know the last time I have woke up one morning and had absolutely nothing to do for the day. I guess that's what happens as you get older and man I'm really beginning to not like it. Really good thing I'm the type that doesn't let things get to me.

Let's see.... What's happened since last post. First off Steve Bowlen passed away from an accident. He had a really good turn out for his funeral which to me speaks immensely of his personality. I hope mine has that many people. I always feel sorry for people when I go to their funeral and there is hardly anyone there.

We had our Halloween party on a Friday evening this year. We had a better turn out than I thought we would. Still not as many as we have on a Saturday evening but with races that was impossible. We went in the house @ 3:00 in the morning. I was sober before I even went to bed. Had a lot of fun though.

I've been taking my shots for two weeks tomorrow. They aren't that painful but I do have some bruises. Good thing they are in my tummy so I don't look like a junkie. I have my ultrasound scheduled on November 8th and the IVF transfer on November 15th. We'll keep our fingers crossed. I'm hoping we don't have to go through a whole new cycle. Less expense this way. But the Lord willing this will work.

We went shopping in Edinburgh last Saturday and I got me two new pairs of tennis shoes. I was in bad need for those.

I've been creating templates - trying to get things ready for the Potato Bar at http://www.polkadotpotato.com/. This is my first time participating in one. If I didn't have to fight with the Xcart so much on this computer I would have been able to create some more. I was working on a Christmas paper kit and was wanting to put that on there but I did not get that one done. Maybe we'll have one in November and I'll save this for it. Otherwise I'll have to upload it to the shop.

I've been trying to find some more stores to sell my products but have only had luck with one. I've got to read the contract over for that one and decide if it's a good fit for me or not. If I knew more about the Internet I would create my own site to sell at but I'm not to smart when it comes to that. Anyway, I'll post some previews of what will be for sale on Monday, October 22nd at http://www.polkadotpotato.com/. You can also "Buy the Bar." Here they are:
