Stupid Uterus Anyways

Cathy | January 29, 2009

I haven’t blogged the last few days because I’ve been having a big fight with my stupid uterus. The whole thing was totally my uterus’ fault.
There I was on Tuesday, minding my own business, all caught up in babymaking, temperature taking, fertility charting excitement, when my ob/gyn called to tell me the results [...]

A Whole New World

Cathy | January 26, 2009

After being sent home from the ob/gyn office with a temperature graph thingie, a pamphlet, and instructions to keep a fertility chart, I spent some time Friday afternoon online looking at conception and pregnancy sites.
I started by googling “fertility chart”. Oh. My. God. It took about 2.5 seconds for me to get completely [...]

Open for Business

Cathy | January 24, 2009

This time my excuse for not blogging every day is that it’s been a hell of a week. The last time we met I was stressing about my hysterosonogram appointment, and that has kinda consumed all my attention.
Which, incidentally, means I have not done so well with all those healthy changes I was ready [...]

Maybe I Should Be a Bank Teller or Something

Cathy | January 21, 2009

Yeah, yeah, I didn’t post yesterday. I didn’t do a lot of things yesterday. I didn’t call my BFF even after I pinky swore that I would. I didn’t do the dishes. I didn’t do laundry. I did run errands – which strangely enough except for one weird outfit wearing [...]

Adventures in Google Searching, Vol. 2

Cathy | January 19, 2009

Did I forget to mention that “posting every day” does not include weekends? Well, it might include weekends if I feel like it. I don’t feel like it on Saturdays when I have a hangover on top of a pre-existing stomachache, and I definitely don’t feel like it on Sundays when the Steelers [...]

I Might Have a Problem

Cathy | January 16, 2009

I was just settling in for a few hours of Law & Order when I remembered I said some shit about posting every day. Damn. So now you are all going to be treated to one of my “one of these days I’m going to write about this” blogs.
I was reminded of this [...]

It’s Not *My* Fault I’m Fat

Cathy | January 15, 2009

I suppose fat is a little extreme. Being 5′4″ and 132 pounds and a size 6 hardly qualifies as being fat. It’s just bigger than I want to be.
I thought I wasn’t sure why this happened. Especially since there was about a six week period of time where I started following my [...]

Good Thing I’m a Trained Investigator – UPDATED

Cathy | January 14, 2009

I feel like crap today. My stomach is killing me, for no particular reason that I can see.
Actually, I suspect I know why it hurts, and it’s pissing me off. If my suspicions are correct, then once again I am being forced to cross a food I really like off the increasingly short [...]

Going Around in Circles

Cathy | January 13, 2009

So who thought I wasn’t really going to post every day? And these are going to be real posts, I don’t phone it in. A picture and two sentences is not a blog. I mean, seriously. If you don’t have anything to say, don’t bother.
Anywhore, I’ll have you know I’m [...]

Maybe I DO Need Structure

Cathy | January 12, 2009

I am easily distracted, to say the least. I don’t think it quite rises to the level of a psychiatric disorder, because I can function when I need to. I’ve successfully held a job most of my life, and have never been fired or failed a class or anything like that. But, [...]
