So, 2022.
I started a new job, working in a nursing home/rehab hospital. Still with the state, so my leave rolled over, but it too 7 months to do so. Not that I'm salty. No, wait. I'm really friggin salty.
Did Spring Break in MSP, got to visit a friend, kiddo got to play in snow, and we went to see Hadestown.
Joined the Repeat Pregnancy Loss club, which got me a referral to a clinic on Oahu, so I've now spent MUCH more time over there, mostly in morning till dinnertime chunks, with the exception of the solo trip I took for my birthday to see Frank Turner on the last show of his 50 states in 50 days tour.
Went through a few rounds of mildly-assisted trying to get pregnant (3x Clomid, 1x + IUI), and, of course, the month we took off (because we were on the mainland for Thanksgiving) appears to have done the trick. I'm due in August and far enough along that I'm starting to relax a little.
I'll be putting a post on FB soon. If we're friends over there and you, for any reason, do not want to be included in those updates, let me know, and I'll make sure you're not on the pregnancy-related posts. I've had a couple people I've had to mute for those reasons, so I'm making a special f-lock list.
