I&#8217;m starting to get a little impatient with the whole daily bloodletting thing (no updates because there&#8217;s nothing to post, just a lot of holes in the inside of my arm and the back of my hand), and this morning on the way into the clinic I managed to spill most of my coffee all over my white cotton blouse.  Three days in a row, I went from the clinic back home or to the gym &#8211; it figures that I douse myself in coffee the day I&#8217;m heading to work.  In white.<\/p>\n<p>And I was going to whine that my in-laws are stopping by for a last-minute overnight visit tonight.  I&#8217;m pretty lucky in the in-law department, but this is not exactly the best week for a visit.  Oh well, aside from the fact they sleep in my bed when they visit, they&#8217;re pretty low maintenance and I enjoy their company &#8211; just not on a weekday, when I&#8217;m working and in the middle of a flippin&#8217; fertility cycle!<\/p>\n<p>And then there is Sassy, my parents&#8217; gorgeous and goodnatured but absolutely dumb as a post malamute husky, who is vacationing with us this week.  She has a tendency to use the rug as a toilet, and no amount of walking has encouraged her to use the outside facilities.  My dad walks her three to five kilometers morning and night, but sadly, I just don&#8217;t have that kind of time just now.  I&#8217;m hoping she deigns to use the back yard sooner rather than too late.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, I was in a pretty crappy mood when I arrived at the office this morning, and then I saw that Nadine from <a href=\"http:\/\/healthifica.com\/18\/vomiting-children-under-three-years-old.html\">heathifica.ca<\/a> had extended my plea for information to her own health-related blog &#8211; wasn&#8217;t that nice?  And then I opened my e-mail, and Jojo the commenter (and godmother to my boys) who really should write her own blog sent me the link to a wonderful blog called <a href=\"http:\/\/shapeofamother.blogspot.com\/\">The Shape of a Mother.<\/a>  It&#8217;s one of the best new blogs I&#8217;ve seen &#8211; I love it!<\/p>\n<p>In other words, I&#8217;ve got nothing today, but do go check out <a href=\"http:\/\/shapeofamother.blogspot.com\/\">The Shape of a Mother<\/a>.   One of these days I might post my own saggy self over there, too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was going to post a really big whine this morning.
