Doctor Stuff

This morning Aaron and I went to see Dr. Kaufmann, and we've decided to try a third IUI. I start taking Clomid tonight, and then I'll be doing the shots (like I did before) until next week. If all goes well, we should be doing the IUI next Thursday or Friday. Please keep us in your prayers :)

I called an acupuncturist, but our insurance doesn't cover it. I might try to get Dr. Connors (the chiropractor I'm working for) to try his acupuncture skills on me. We'll see!

The simple things...

The simple things in life make me happy. Who knew you could get tacos AND hush puppies in the same meal. Well, you can when you eat at a Taco Bell/Long John's Silver. I've been working on alphabetizing files at the chiropractor's office all week, and I found 3 missing files...which is something else that made me happy. Listening to Delilah on the radio, watching my dog slide on our wood floor chasing a ball, and driving in the rain. Okay, maybe not the last one. I don't like driving in the rain, especially when it's dark outside. Tonight after bible study, it was raining so hard that I pulled under an awning and waited it out. I made it home in one piece, and now I'm looking forward to a HAPPY weekend.

Hump Day

It's not every day you can say a toad peed on you. Really...we had the Fort Worth Zoo come out to the preschool, and I got to hold a big, fat toad that peed on me. Good times! Last night we watched the Biggest Loser finale, and Ali Vincent won. She's the first girl to win! She lost 112 pounds (from 234 to 122). Wow!

I haven't been this tired in a long time, but I'm enjoying my job at the chiropractor's office. It'll be more normal next week when the other girl gets back from her vacation. Speaking of vacations, Aaron's going to Las Vegas next week with his dad and brother for Anthony's 21st birthday. I'll make him take lots of pictures for me to post.

Workaholic

I worked 20 hours for Dr. Connors last week, otherwise known as Doc. I've learned how to use all the machines, and Mikenzie (who hired me) is going to be out of town next week. That leaves me and Doc to handle things until she gets back. It's going to be a crazy week! Well, now that the writer's strike is over, all the shows are coming back with new episodes. I've been watching Dancing with the Stars, and my two favorite dancers are Shannon Elizabeth and Kristi Yamaguchi. They're both good, so maybe a female will actually win!

Storms

Here's my non-belly "belly" shot. Haha...Aaron made me take this earlier in the week. It's not the most flattering picture, but scrubs sure are comfortable. And if any of you nurses out there have scrubs you don't want anymore, I'll gladly take them off your hands!

I'm so tired after being up from about 3:30 to 4:30 this morning during the storms. My husband slept through most of it, but Rudy kept me company. We had the radio on listening to all the tornado warnings/watches. I was thinking most of you with kids were probably up too!

What's new?

Where do I begin? Okay, last night we went to the Stars game, and even though they lost, it was a lot of fun. Thanks to Mike and Stephanie for inviting us! The first picture looks like the Stars player is in the picture with us :) You can see from the second picture we had pretty good seats...and best of all, they were FREE!

So, Aaron promised to try yoga this morning. We went...and the instructor never showed up! I guess he'll have to go with me another time (he's not getting out of it that easy). Now the crazy news: I'm starting another job on Monday. What am I thinking? Actually, it's at the office of my chiropractor. I was talking to the girl who works as the receptionist, nurse, and everything else (it's just her and Dr. Connors). Anyway, she was looking for part-time help and I'd get to see the chiropractor for free. They have the easiest hours, and it shouldn't interfere with GCS. I might even get to fulfill my dream of wearing scrubs. You never know what God will bring your way!

Funny Dog

I don't have any pictures to share, but I do have a funny story! Last night we tried something new with Rudy. Any of you who have dogs out there may have a problem with them barking. Rudy's worst time is at night...I think he's barking at the stars! He'll go outside and bark until we have to bribe him to come back in with a treat. Anyway, we now have a bark control collar, which is made by PetSafe and is very humane. It sends a "static correction" when he barks, and let me tell you, the first time he barked I swear he jumped a couple of feet in the air. Aaron and I were sitting on the deck, and he'd run up to us wondering what was going on. I couldn't help but laugh. We should have video taped it!

Nobody commented on my comic from last weekend. We have it on our refrigerator :) We're going to the Dallas Stars game tonight with Mike and Stephanie, some friends from church. I'm looking forward to having a night out on the town.
