I just wanted to say Thank You to all who wished me a healthy return to life. It appears that it must of been a 24 hr gig, because I was back to work on Friday. Feeling better, but not great. I am happy however to announce that I am all better now!
Last night I went out with three of my friends from my DH and I's old neighborhood. We used to live in a townhouse (and we were in a cul-de-sac). We knew all of our neighbors and became really close with a few of them. When we moved into a house about 3 towns over, we were all sad but decided to have girls night out at least once a month and we all get together (guys included) as often as we can. So, last night was ladies night (dinner and drinks--Thank God!). We all have our fair share of stuff going on. One of them is a single mom dealing with a psycho ex (really, like he was in an institution and stuff) who can't seem to get pass the divorce. One who is wanting to divorce her husband, but when she told him he decided he wanted to work things out for the sake of their little girl. Of course he was super nice and changed for all of a month until he went back to his old ways. She can't have him move out yet as she is getting money in order, but it will be over soon enough. And finally the last one has a pretty decent life; husband, 2 kids, happy life except the $$ is pretty bad right now. Like I said everyone has their own demon. And of course there is me, whose DH has azoo. (although they were not aware until last night).
When I arrived at the restaurant, first one there, which is a big step I am usually always late, I am the only one there. Low and behold within minutes they arrive and the first one says, "So, anything cooking under that coat??" You know bun in the oven! Oh ha ha I say...no no...that is a story for when we sit down. I waited for awhile thru dinner before making my announcement. They were so sympathic and it turns out that the one with the 2 kids, happy life but $$ problems, had a/i to have her son. I couldn't believe it. It was so great to talk to someone who had been thru this and who understood IRL that is. So, although they were a little mad I hadn't told them sooner, they understood and were awesome. I was pretty excited. So, even though I did most of the talking it was a really good night with the ladies. And, of course they all want a phone call after the surgery. Still can't believe its coming so soon. I am getting a little scared. But, thats a post for another day.

That is wonderful that you have supportive friends to walk with you!!
That is awesome! I am glad you had a great night out. We ALL need it every so often. I was reading a blog a while back where the gal was blasting other infertile's for drinking at ALL. uh, okay. I think a glass of wine or a margarita is what is causing all this!!! It is true that we all have our demons- and when you think everyone has it all together or under control...we later find out they were secretly porn stars that got in it b/c they owed the Russian mob money from a jewelry heist gone wrong...or maybe that is just my active imagination. ;)
I am glad you have your friends to talk to. That is great!!!
How fun to have a night out with the girls! I love that. It's wonderful that you were able to be so open and honest with your friends...that is something that I struggle with. I'm sure it will give you even more support and love through all of this!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! I'm happy to hear that you had a good girls night out. There is a special feeling from just being with girlfriends, they make you feel good.
Good luck with the upcoming surgery!
Thank you for the comment!
I'm glad you had a good night out with the girls. It's great that you were able to share what is going on with them and get some support. You are so right, everyone has their own demon. And some people whose lives look perfect on the outside are really a total mess.
