Luck of a different kind!

Ok, so we love the Barenaked ladies, who we knew were touring in the UK this month, but who we knew we wouldn't be able to see because we are totally poor at the moment, what with prospective fertility treatment coming up!

Anyhoo, thanks to the wonder that is twitter, i managed to win tickets for the gig in our hometown and we were totally amazed and excited and had the best time ever! It was the second time we had seen them and they just get better, even without Steve Page who has left the band!

I was gutted post show to read about people meeting the band after the show - we didn't realise we could do this! Waaaah! I was sooo depressed.....BUT!!!

I found another comp on twitter for tickets to another BNL gig....entered only once (last time i tweeted the answer like tonnes) as i thought "no chance love", and would you believe that we won tickets again!!!! Ok, so this gig is like 2 hours away, but at least we get to see them again, AND i have hope that we can meet them this time YAY!!!

On another note, first fertility appointment is on Monday..... getting nervous now.... But this good luck has me hopeful!

Love

Lovely Jubbly Deliciousness!!

This week i went to visit one of my best friends who had her baby 6 weeks ago - yes bad me for not going earlier but its tricky for me...

Anyway i totally surprised myself lol. He is absolutely adorable, she and her hubby are stunning parents, and the feelings of love and adoration in the room when the 3 of them are together is so delicious it is untrue!

I left feeling elated and happy and full of joy for them, but also full of hope for my future...

I think i "think" i cant cope with people having babies around me, but in reality (when it is my closest friends), its totally cool, and i am soo unbelievably happy for them :) I think i had just surrounded myself with this massive protection barrier *no babies must be in my vicinity ever until i have one* lol.... idiot!

So this week in FH land, my job is in question, chances are i wont lose my job, but what my job will be will very likely change, which kinda sucks alot!!! I have spent 3 years getting my skills up together, training as an adult teacher, only to be told this could all change by December.... Wow this country is going through alot at the moment! I can now totally sympathise with all those whose jobs are under question.... not good, not good, BUT WE CAN ALWAYS REMAIN FOREVER HOPEFUL XXX

15 Days to go!

Until our first appt at fertility clinic, hope it goes okay and they dont try to delay us starting treatment as i am really keen to start ASAP! Even hubby is counting the days which quite frankly surprised me! Turns out the consultant is off for 3 months and i sure don't want to wait that long...

Took a look at his swimmers under the microscope the other day and i have to say they look pretty good, better than ever infact, but i am sure a test will tell us better!! Not too long til we get that done either... still not sure how he is going to do it ....

Had another psycho "i could be pregnant" 2ww this month, boobs were sorer than ever and i havent bloated or had the pain i usually get up to a week before but today at 13dpo, i started spotting and got a negative test AGAIN.... Dunno why i insist on testing, but i had done well to hold out as long as i did lol.

Hoping all you trying to conceive and all you able ones are well and good!

Forever Hopeful x
