Public Transit

Hubby just boarded his first city bus since…. well even he can’t remember. I hope he isn’t bored, I hope he likes the ride. Because in about three weeks this will be his main mode of transportation.

Danigirl, don’t be shocked if you see Hubby on the bus some mornings 🙂

BBQ Time!

We have a new addition in our house and it is an awesome rockin’ BBQ!! I am so excited, but I don’ t have a photo right now. I love to BBQ!!

Last year after our move our old BBQ, which had seen better days, blew over in a wind storm. It was never quite the same since. A couple of weeks ago, I put some steaks on and went to come back in the house only to see the flames shooting out the bottom of the bbq. Nicely warming up the propane tank. So that was it. No more bbq. We shopped around and compared and settled with one from Loblaws, they don’t have a photo of it either. It is a beauty. Stainless steel, four burners, a side burner (no more running in and out of the house to check the potatoes or whatever is boiling in the kitchen) and the best part of all… it hooks up to the natural gas on our house so we don’t have to worry about the tank running out when we are cooking for a party. That is when it usually runs out here. So, although we have had a few dinners already, I am gearing up for a new summer of bbq!! Can’t wait, nothing beats meat cooked on a bbq 🙂

Experiment #2

Experiment #2 is about to start. Hooray!! Hopefully with the reduction in drugs, and the salad and fruit that I have been eating (not that the pounds are going down, but I really feel better overall). This experiment will turn out much better than the last one.

When the Doctor suggested dropping my meds by almost half (Puregone @ 75), I came back and suggested we meet halfway with more bloodwork. So, I will start off a little lower (Puregone @ 100) than last time(Puregone @125), and have my bloodwork checked earlier and more often. Hopefully we can avoid a major stimualtion of my follicles. I was leary to drop right down to 75 as you can actually go the other way with stimulation. I could have ended up taking the drugs and had absolutely no effect on my follicles what-so-ever. That would be a waste of needles in the belly for sure.

I am hoping that I can keep the weight gain down to a minimum this time, through my “Operation Healthier You“. This past week was a bit of a bust with a weekend long celebration of a birthday and dinner out with the girls. But, I have not gained any back, just haven’t lost anymore. Having Farm Boy so close has meant better eating for everyone in our house. We actually started running out of the stuff that you can’t get there, so I had to make an emergency run to our old grocery store yesterday, for things like apple juice and paper towel, and crackers. I am hoping that I can keep the pounds at bay by eating super healthy this time. Hey it’s worth a try :).
