Victories, Failures, and BYOC a day late

OK so good news this week and bad news too.

I will start with the bad well not bad just more frustrating. My surgeons office called and I got all excited. They said that they wanted me to go to one more appointment with my doctor before they sent everything in. :( I about had a high speed comeapart on the phone because I was under the impression that it would take them 2 weeks to look at my file again before sending to insurance. The lady promised that she was completing the letter of medical necessity and all would be prepared, they just wanted one more set of dr notes to send. OK well, I was very upset, but they promised that I will get approved they don't see any problems, and just want to cover all bases.

GOOD NEWS! I have made it to ONEDERLAND! I am so excited. I haven't seen 199 since my 4th month of my last pregnancy!

and Last by not least. BYOC a day late. Sorry ladies, my laptop died yesterday. My husband majically brought it back to life though!


1. Name a career you would NOT want to do and tell why.

Day care worker. I have enough trouble not going insane with my own kids. Also I have a major adversion to vomit.


2. What’s the best present you ever received for your birthday?

The best birthday present ever was for my 16th birthday. It wasn't really a monetary present, but more of an act of kindness. We were on a cruise to Alaska for my birthday. When we were walking in Juneau as that was our port that day. Everyone stopped me to say Happy Birthday. I had know idea how everyone knew, but then mom said they were all eating with us when the "really hot" waiters sang to me.

3. This is from Amy W. (I had a request to copy her question and ask it today in BYOC) (Hope that’s okay Amy!)

What do you hide behind?

I often hide behind my husband. I am the one who is more often then not barking the orders, but it is him that I always send in to do my dirty work.

4. Where were you born?

St. Charles, Illinois

5. A little twist on this one..usually we ask – what blog spoke to you the most, stuck with you, had the most effect on you this week? This week I’m adding to that which comment may have affected you greatly? Sometimes a blog can lead to amazing comments and they deserve their own claim to fame here in this question.

I would say my favorite had to be Amy W's call to all newbies. I made a lot of connections that I wouldn't have otherwise found. Thanks!
