My Lady of the Lantern

Meg , Shannon , Kristin (Kekis) and Sharon gave me an award. And boy, am I glad or am I glad! The rules of the award are: Accept the award; post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link. Pass the award to 15 other blogs that you’ve newly discovered. I won’t be giving it only to my new digs; I am going to mix the new with the old! The blogs that receive it from me: Burble Salvageable Wracked By Faith: An Infertility Blog Elana’s Musings Destined to be an old woman with no regrets Samuel Marc An Unwanted Path Last American Girl Standing Not the Path I Chose Secrets of an Infertile Mom By the pricking of my thumbs Becoming Whole Our Life in Nutchell Xiolo's Place The Pitter-Patter Ova-EZ A Family with Ann Ovulation Did I count 15?

...go for a blood draw? Actually, I am staking it out till the next Tuesday. I have been late before. The longest I have held out is 5 days, 8 days and 15 days. The 15 days waiting happened once, in January 2005. At that point of time, I still had not associated sub-fertility with me and I was newly TTC. I have already crossed the 5 day and the 8 day barrier and hopefully by next Tuesday either Aafra Faafra would be here, or I would have POASed again, and also scheduled a blood draw to happen. As of now, I still do not have any symptoms that signal AF's arrival. I did feel a this-is-it moment on Monday, but it was just a temporary scare. Thank You Sharonvw and theclam . Your comments have given me hope to cling on to. And thanks to everyone who have sent good wishes my way. ^WiseGuy^

Sharonvw gave me an award. And here’s what it is called – What is expected is that I need to - 1) Choose a minimum of 7 blogs that you find brilliant in content or design. 2) Show the 7 winners names and links on your blog, and leave a comment informing them that they were prized with “Honest Scrap.” Well, there’s no prize, but they can keep the nifty icon. 3) List at least 10 honest things about yourself. Thank You so much, Sharon! Blogs I pick – Cassandra@ Baby Smiling in Back Seat Lindsay@ The Steadfast Warrior Brenda@ Hope Springs Infertile Polly@ In 2 Me See Another Dreamer@ An Unwanted Path Clio@ Dancing with Gaia Elana@ Elana’s Musings One-hit_Wonder@ (Mis)conceptions: An Infertility Blog 10 Honest things about myself – 1. As a teenager, I had braces on my teeth. 2. The orange comb that I use right now has been with me since I was 14 or 15. 3. Talking of footwear, I will always pick up comfort over style. High heels never make it to my list. 4. I am self-centred. I can’t handle...
