I'm so nervous but very excited to be starting my new job tomorrow! I'm looking forward to meeting new people and learning about all the stuff I'm going to be doing. Oh and not worrying about having to find parking and $11 of change for the parking meter each morning!
On a slightly more sedate note, it looks like we are going to get a personal loan to consolidate all of our credit card debt. We tend to live beyond our means, especially with the pressures of IVF, and we have decided to really knuckle down for the next six months to try and get our finances back in some kind of order. Realistically it's a three year plan to get back to scratch but we are okay with that. Having a baby is incredibly important to us, and I'm not getting to let something as silly as money stop us from achieving our dreams.
In saying that, I am loving the freedom of not cycling right now. I had to go onto my FF today to work out where I was in my cycle because I had completely forgotten! (CD 21 for those playing at home).
Some shoutouts to my beautiful bloggy friends who have kept me sane this last six months of hellishness
Sarah is incredible -the best advice - thank you for sticking by me in the tough stuff. One Who Understands is an awesome friend, and going through a lot of the similar stuff, trying to decide between diui and that elusive 'one more try'. Sending you my love honey. Beautiful Mess is doing fab at school - you go girl! Jen is just awesome. Not much more I can say than that! Not long until Nichole comes off of her 'not trying break', Wishing I could do thanksgiving with you guys.Suzanne's little bubbas are 2 months old already - I can't believe it! Birds & Squirrels is 35 weeks and I am so happy for her. I am secretly disappointed in Ally for revealing she is a closet Twilight fan but I will forgive her because she is so damn cool :-)
And I know I have missed people but its quarter to twelve already and if you hadn't noticed - I have a new job tomorrow! So off to bed I will go :-)
You just made me blush Bec!!!!
ReplyDeleteWe've spent the past four years of marriage getting our financial house in order. We hired a financial planner last year and I finally feel like we are on the right track. I was a poor student for too long, now that we earn a decent wage I don't want to spend stupidly!
Best of luck with the new job tomorrow! You're going to rock!!!!

Congratulations on starting the new job! That is great. I'm so glad you like it! And thank you for the acknowledgment!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the DI deliberation. Going with a known donor certainly sounds like it has its benefits. We were just getting to discussing that when the miracle cycle worked, because of the morphology issue and the cost of IVF. I think I was more open to it than DH was, and there were a lot of issues to work out. It's a complicated place to be. I hope that things go really well if and when you talk it over with S.
I think the time off work sounds lovely!
