So Sad

I so want to be pregnant. I've gone to the doctors a couple times. The first time it ended up being a midwife. So the next visit she sent me to an OB because she doesn't deal with infertility. I didn't like this OB. I could barely understand her. Well she said everything looked good and the next step is the HSG. We're not sure if our insurance covers it at all. We're going to call but haven't yet. I had called that OB back to see what it was the next step was (HSG) and if we didn't want to do that what's the next step. The answer was HSG. So I feel like I haven't gotten anywhere with help.

I decided I don't want to go back to her. I really want a female OB and she's the only one at that clinic which goes with that hospital. It's just nice because I can have a 1:00 appointment and make it because it's on my way home and close to home. So if I were to have a baby, the hospital is not far.

When I decide to go back to the doctor, I'm going to ask my friend who her female OB is/was. She had two OBs, a male and female. She had lots of problems, that's why she had two. That's not far from home either, just the other way. So if I'm working, I'd have to make a later appointment. Also the hospital is a half hour away. I know to do the HSG, it's at the hospital.

Money has gotten really tight, so I don't think we're going to do anything for awhile.

It's hard. Last cycle (while I was going to the doctors), I was sure I was pregnant. But nope. Oh well is all I can say. I'm not going to let it get me down, but it's hard. It's just stinks to be out of control. I'm not sure if anything is wrong with me or if I'm just ovulating late. My periods are all very normal and never missed. Just another thing that's not working on my body I guess.

Hopefully it'll happen soon and it'd be great if it just happened, but I don't think that's going to happen without help. Who knows.

How do you lose your wedding ring?

There's this lady that we bowl with that we think is kooky. She and her husband are nice, but once she gets too many drinks in her she's wacko. Well wacko period. This is our 4th year bowling. This couple just got married last July. They're really weird. (I know this post is starting out weird and yes I've been drinking. We got home from bowling a little bit ago )

When we were down bowling we hung around for a little while after we were done bowling. Roger was talking to the guy and another bowling guy. I was talking to the kooky lady and the bartender who was done working. Kooky lady was telling us how she lost her wedding ring at the bar. She was wearing her ring so we said "obviously you found it". She said she had lost it on a friday and the cops called her on Saturday saying they think they found it and it was it. She said she took her ring off to put on makeup. ???????????????. What???? Who takes their ring off to put on makeup?

About 2 years ago we were at a bar, I think it was at a meat raffle but after the raffle. Then she left with some guy, she told her guy before she left and he said fine. She left and came back like an hour later. She said they were at the bar down the street. Neither one of them were working at the time. And I hate to admit this but both Roger and I thought the same thing. Later we said it to each other, that's how I know we thought the same thing. We thought is she doing something for money? We never actually said the word but hooking? Or else we think it's drug related.

She had said something before they got married about how he had given her a ring before but she lost it. Now she's saying she had lost her ring putting on makeup in a bar. Hmmmmmm???

Now you're probably thinking that my drinking/drunk posts are more interesting!?!

Weekend with my mom

Roger went fishing with the guys (his cousins). My mom came on Friday and spent the weekend. She live 40 minutes away, not a big deal. But it just fun when she stays over. Friday I called MIL up and asked if MIL/FIL wanted to go out to eat with us. So the 4 of us went to this bar/grill in between our houses. That's nice. I was thinking afterwards that it's really nice that I'm fine with doing stuff with my parents in law without my husband.

Saturday we went to the mall in St. Cloud. We always usually got to Mall of America or somewhere where we always go. St. Cloud is an hour away from my parents and that's where I grew up. We never went to St. Cloud. We went there and holy moly! It was busy like Mall of America is in December! I don't like crowds like that but we shopped. I finally found a black sweater. I've been wanting black. Good deal. I also found some dice earrings. They're kinda like studs but dice. SIL that got married in Vegas is having a reception in June. We're all going to be wearing shirts that they had made for us. I thought the earrings would go with it.

We then ate at Applebee's close to my house. After we were done we just kept chit chatting. My mom had asked if we should go, seemed like all the tables were full. I could see the stand where the hostess is and the front door and nobody was there. We stayed a long time. When we walked out, I realize there's a waiting area that I couldn't see and it was just packed! I'm surprised our waiter didn't try to get us to leave. Oops!

Then we watched PS I love You and Walk the Line at home.

Today we just chit chatted. Ordered a pizza. The pizza we order is really good. My mom really likes it and wants it when she comes over. Then Roger came home. Mom left shortly after.

We bowl tonight and the cousin who's fish house it was is on our team. I believe we're bowling against the other cousin that was in their fishhouse too. Maybe us ladies will have to pick it up tonight to carry them.

Weekend Plans

This weekend Roger went fishing with the guys. The guys are 5 of his cousins and a couple other guys that are one of the guy's work buddies. I think they're about 3-4 hours away. He did this last year too.

My mom will be coming over later and staying the weekend. I'm not sure what we're going to do. I'm thinking tonight maybe we can go to Trails bar and grill right by my house. Then tomorrow we'll go to St. Cloud. Not sure what we'll do, shop? She hasn't been to St. Cloud very much. Then tomorrow night I'm thinking we'll order pizza. She really likes the pizza we order and they don't have it. I figured tomorrow we'll eat lunch somewhere maybe, so we can stay home to eat pizza. I don't know. Whatever we do, we'll have fun. Maybe we'll stop at Becker Furniture World. I'm curious how much a supoer single mattress cost.

I grew up with a super single waterbed. We have it in our guest room. Last summer we felt like it smelled in there and we were trying to find it. The bed didn't appear to be leaking, but I thought it smelled like icky water like it was leaking. We drained the waterbed and put it away. The smell is gone. We still have the frame up. I really like the bedframe. It needs to be sanded down and restained. My cousin had it before me and there's two name engraved on it. It's kinda silly to have this bedframe there and have to blow up a mattress to sleep on. The mattress is 18 inches thick and queen size. So I can't put it on the frame. Oh well. So I'd like to see how much a mattress cost. We rarely ever have anyone sleep over though. Also, if we ever have a baby (AF showed up today BTW), that'll be the baby room. So we'll have to take apart the bed frame and store it.

We'll I should get doing something productive. It's 1:30 now. My mom will probably be here around

Browsing Etsy

When I was at the State Fair last August, I saw this necklace I loved. But it was really expensive. I'm in love with dragonflies. I'm browing Etsy right now for anything Dragonfly. Not sure if I'll buy anything but I'm going to post things I like.

I just bought the item number 1. There was only 1, it's a dragonfly cuff bracelet.

Weekend

This weekend was fun. Roger and I headed up to the casino Friday. We found out on the way that his mom didn't have to babysit his sister's baby Saturday night. So they're going to stay both nights. They had the other sister's kid with them. I'm not sure why, but it was fun. He's 8. We got there about 2 hours before them and we couldn't check in because it's under his mom's name/card. So we gambled till they got there. She had tried getting us both non-smoking rooms since none of us smoke, but our room was smoking. It's weird, the hotel is two towers. There room was in the 400s, ours was 500s. We went up a floor and the numbers didn't go high enough. We had to go down to the lobby, other side of main entrance and back up to our room. We hit the seafood buffet and yummy! I could've seriously stayed there all night. They were all full and done, so I figured I should be done too.

Roger's dad had to work Saturday morning, so he didn't stay up too late on Friday. So he and the nephew went to bed and his mom was out with us. We went to bed about 4am Saturday. Then during the day our friends Chris and Kalin came. They're on our bowling team. I actually had worked with Chris in the bakery at Target. They got their room, smoking and they were on the same floor as Roger's parents. No fair! Not that it really mattered. We all hit the buffet that night too. I hope they didn't mind that Roger's parents and nephew joined us/them. Also before we ate, we hung out in C&K's room drinking. Roger and the nephew were swimming. They didn't seem to care. Roger's parents are really easy people to talk to so that helps. But kinda the whole point of Roger taking him swimming was so that they could go gamble. Oh well.

C&K and Roger and I gambled all night long. Finally at 6am, Roger and I said we're going to bed. Roger was down, I was up $40. I was down and then I hit big, to catch back up.
Roger and I were playing with some money that we got for Christmas. So really we didn't break the bank. Also the buffets were comp because Roger's parents and Chris gamble enough to have rewards. All the rooms were comps too.

Oh we spent a bit of time in arcade with the nephew. He ended up turning in the tickets on Sunday. We didn't see them so I don't know what his prizes were. I just know he had over 1k tickets. I figured out on skeeball how to hit the 100 and then Roger figured it out too.

Slacking

Sorry I've been slacking writing in here. I have another blog on opendiary that's I've had for 9 years now. I've been meaning to post on both sites. I'll try to do better.

Yesterday was Roger's birthday. We went to eat at Acupulco with my mom, my brother and his family. Well my brother and his family met us a little later and for dessert. He didn't see my text to him about dinner until 3 hours later when I finally called him to ask if they're coming or not. They were eating dinner. I told them they didn't have to come but they wanted dessert.

I have Friday and the weekend off. When we were out to eat on Sunday with Roger's parents I had asked FIL if he had to work Saturday. He said "Yes, why?". I said that I was was thinking of possibly casino and staying the night. They said they had free rooms. They always have free rooms. They gamble enough with their player's card to get points. There's two casinos that are connected, nowhere close to each other but same chain. We said how bout the one. Then when we were at bowling on Sunday night, our team members said they're going to the other casino and have a room Saturday night. After bowling I saw MIL left a voicemail on my phone. She had already gotten rooms for us. I told Roger that was really fast, we said we'd think about it tonight and get back to her tomorrow. So he called her and said we want to go to the other and for Friday and Saturday.
So we're going there and MIL/FIL got a room Friday night. They'll leave early Saturday morning since FIL has to work. SIL/BIL are going out for her birthday Saturday evening and MIL is babysitting. FIL is thinking about come back to the casino after work on Saturday and then he'd stay with us.

Also today, 4 years ago, is the day Roger proposed to me. I can't believe it's been 4 years already.
