I haven't written anything here in three weeks, and honestly, there's not really anything to write. I've been debating what to do with this blog. Maybe it's time to retire it. We're done with treatments and have no plans to adopt at this point. Unless a baby literally falls into our laps, it's not happening.
That's not to say in a few years that we might change our minds, but for now, we are living child-free. I'm concentrating on finding a new job. I'm miserable right now with where I work. Or I guess I should say who I work for. I've put off finding a new job because of treatments and what-ifs. I'm not going to do that anymore. I need to stop living for the maybe future and start living for the concrete present.
Maybe I'll still post here now and then.
We have our first Thanksgiving get-together this weekend at my grandfather's house. Last time we were there he said that he wanted the next pregnancy announcement to be from me. Obviously, he knows nothing of our infertility problems. I'm pretty open about it, but I haven't told him. I wonder if anyone will say anything to us. My SIL is due the first week in December and she'll be there in all her pregnant glory. It should be a blast.

I'm in the same boat with my blog.
Hope you have a great Thanksgiving!
The only thing we are "doing" is acupuncture (and some diet changes to be more organic/natural), but it sort of feels like nothing compared to all the ART we've been through. I've found that there is still plenty to write about, especially as I try to process living without children. Hang in there, we are always here to support you!!
And wow, good luck at your Thanksgiving get together, that sounds really rough (HUG)
I hope you will continue your blog. It doesn't have to the blow-by-blow of ART. We'd miss you if you went away.
