Books 2 & 3

Since I don't have any DE updates I'm updating on my 50 book goal.

I read "The Mysterious Affair at Styles" by Agatha Christie I enjoyed it. I think I'll read some more of the Poiroit books. It was an amusing and interesting read and I liked it.

I also reread "The Undomestic Goddess" by Sophie Kinsella, I really like this book and it's a go to for a laugh.

Donor 2!

Donor choice 2 was aparrently meant to be. She cycled in Dec. w/ a BFP so she's on a break which would mean transfer in March (which we wanted) she wants to cycle again and she's physically a good match for me on top of everything else! She's also a single donor which I prefer, I was ok w/ split cycle but it definitely something else to worry about so that's great as well.

She's about my height (not many women are 5 ft) dark blonde, brown eyes (Banks' are)
She's proven and has a good health history. So all in all what we were looking for!

I'm thinking it was meant to be and that's a good sign.

I'm so excited. The plan is for me to let them know when we have AF and then we'll start the process in Feb. and transfer in March.

It's FINALLY happening, I can't believe it!

Rollercoaster Ride

Well I talked to Pati this morning and everything was great until she e-mailed this afternoon to say that the donor we wanted called her back to tell Pati that she didn't want to cycle again.

I understand but I'm so dissapointed. It seemed like everything was falling perfectly into place.

The good news is that we found another donor we like and I'll try again tomorrow.

Donor Chosen!

Banks and I have chosen our donor. I'll call Pati tomorrow, Monday, and reserve her. She's pretty much exactly the donor we wanted but I'm trying not to get too excited until I talk to Pati and hear that it's all official and we're set to cycle.

I'll post more tomorrow after I've talked to Pati and confirmed everything.

Book 1

So I've completed 1 book towards my goal of 50.
It's a little romance "Just Wicked Enough" by Lorraine Heath. It's cute and an enjoyable light read.

Nothing big but I'm working on Outlander which is very long and wanted a quick read!

Happy New Year, 2009

Here's hoping that 2009 is an awesome year w/ a BFP for us.

I'm going to list my resolutions here, hopefully that'll help me stick w/ them.
1) Read 50 books this year (I'll do a review as I finish them)
2) Drink 96 oz of H2O a day (bought sports bottles today to use at work)
3) Use our fine china AT LEAST once a month.
4) Loose some more weight before we cycle. (by March)

With a little luck this year will be better than 2008 and will end w/ a healthy happy baby. Happy New Year's Everyone!

Holiday Wrap Up

Christmas was great. We had a wonderful visit w/ my family and there was NO traffic driving back n Christmas Eve. Christmas day was nice and as always we had a terrific time w/ Banks' family.

I'm looking forward to the New Year. I'm really hoping it'll be a better than 2008. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday.
