busy

Back to work is so hard! It is amazing how exhausting working is! I don't like being this busy and not having time to blog and garden and stuff. Yesterday was a 7am-9pm day for me. Too much! Not that I can really complain for the last 2 months I have a job.

Job update news: If you live in CA, PLEASE vote yes on the 1's on May 19th. If the 1's don't pass, even more teachers will likely get lay-offs. After the election, if 1 passes, my district will likely rescind some pink slips. I am working on adding to my credential, but that won't go through until June or July.

I don't know why, but I am not really stressed or worried about my job. It's probably everything else going on. The rest of the school year is going to fly by. 8 weeks from today is the last day until summer!

Sorry for the boring update. Although, honestly, it's kind of nice not having anything interesting going on.

    Hi Emmy! First, thank you so much for all of your supportive and congratulatory comments on my blog. I SO appreciate it. Second, my hubby is a teacher here in CA so you know how I'll be voting! It's good to spread the word.

    I wanted to write and tell you that I was thinking of you on the anniversary of your father's passing. I'm sorry you are having to deal with the terrible uncle, and the money stuff. I have no advice, but it does seem unfair that he is in charge and wrote everything himself. It's adding insult to injury to have to deal with debt and $$ issues at this time.

    As for the results of the SA...I am so sorry. I was hoping they would see a few there. Do you have next steps in mind? I just want to give you a little hope, because there are lots of things that you can try, if you want. I NEVER thought that we would get sperm, after 2.5 years of azoospermia, but eventually we got there. Of course, if you are ready to move on, there are many other options for you as well. Just let me know if you ever want to talk about any of this. It is so, so complicated, frustrating and UNFAIR!

    OK, sorry for the long post. I'm thinking of you!

It's you!

"It's you!  I just know it!  You've lost some weight, it must be because of the morning sickness!" No, it's not me.  I'm not pregnant. "But is HAS to be you.  Who else could it be?  You just don't want to tell because it is too early" No, really.  It's not me.  I promise.  I haven't cheated on my husband.   "Well, who else could it be?" Um, one of the other 20 teachers of child bearing age at this school.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I've guessed the other two pregnant teachers, before I even knew there were pregnant teachers at my school.  I have 'pregodar' (like gaydar, but for preggos) and really can sense the preggos around me.  I hadn't pegged a 3rd teacher, but I heard a rumor that there is a third when I started being hounded, and I think I have it figured out.  Its the one on her 3rd engagement and 3rd marriage in 5 years.  She's reaching the top of her realistic baby time, so it makes sense.

plugging along

There really isn't much to say at this point.  I'm plugging along, doing fine. Yesterday, I bowed out of a BBQ with B's family.  In May I mentioned BIL's ex and her "surprise" (planned) pregnancy.  One of the reasons for this BBQ was for BIL's birthday, and she decided to drive down to attend (she's still living 5-6 hours away).  She's like 26 weeks pregnant, and the thought of having to spend the day with her made me feel ill.  BIL isn't planning on living with her and the baby or marrying her, but will go visit often.  She is such an attention whore, I couldn't deal with her talking about the baby and flaunting the fact that she is still around because of it.  I've felt a little bit of a cold coming on, so I exaggerated it and stayed home.  I did end up throwing up my dinner, so I'm glad I didn't go. I felt a little guilty about skipping out on this, but I got over it quickly.  MIL was hoping that B and I would announce our

off with the crazies

Well, as expected, I had a pretty crappy Christmas.  Christmas eve was actually the best part.  We always celebrate on Christmas eve with my mom's side of the family.  That was actually fine.  Christmas day, not so much.  First, at my dad's side of the family lunch, I've never felt like such an outsider.  Christmas at the IL's started out fine.  BIL's dumb girlfriend decided to group each person's gifts in a pile, and we opened gifts one person at a time.  This took forever, and was kind of annoying.  For this group, we set up a gift exchange with B's brothers, so that we didn't have to buy for everyone.  I did the arranging for this, and think I did a good job.  I gave everyone opportunity to give input and include anyone else who was not included (didn't know if BIL's girlfriend was coming), compiled the responses, and sent out the information.  After all of that, B's brother went and got something for everyone, which really set me off.  Be
