Slow moving

I have noticed that in the blogs I read I really enjoy the posts more when there are photos. Although they've been taking about 10 ultrasound photos each visit, they haven't given any copies to me so I can't share those with you. I don't know how interesting you would find photos of my follicles to be anyhow, LOL. You know you're walking slowly when a white haired gentleman at church who looks to be at least 70 years old passes you out as you are walking on the sidewalk leaving church. Yep, that's what happened to me today, LOL! I am walking at a snail's pace these days. I am also soooo thankful for my comfy couch at home! I was in sheer pain in Sunday School sitting on a metal folding chair. OUCH! The church pew was better than the chair but again more painful than my couch in my living room. My flute solo went well this morning although I couldn't hold the last note for as many measures as I was supposed to due to it being rather painful to take a deep breath that involved my diaphragm. This too shall pass (unless I get pg which might curtail my flute playing for a little bit). I am hoping that tomorrow morning will be my last belly shot and that the pressure in my ovaries will decrease after the retrieval on Wed. I figure they are going to retrieve about 2 years worth of eggs (considering the average woman ovulates 13 eggs a year). So my ovaries are definitely being overworked at the moment! I think tonight I am going to try sleeping on the recliner as I haven't slept well in bed the last couple of nights.

I am happy to report that my colleague, Michael, readily agreed to fill in for me on Wednesday evening if my ER ends up being Wednesday morning. He already filled in for me once last summer session when Paul and I had the "all day" RE appt. What a great friend he is!
