We have been fighting to get Austin’s new birth certificate since December, it has been one hurdle after another and the estimated wait is 5 months. This was fine until a few snafu’s started to arise. When Austin got accepted into the charter school, they need his correct BC for enrollment… and then this summer, my parents wanted to take Austin and Christopher to Canada, and though passports are not required yet for automobile travel, a copy of birth certificate and a note from the parents is required. Since my name is not on the copy we have yet, we cannot both sign the note.
Anyways, I was able to get SOME answers today… after being on hold for an hour I learned that I could have a copy within a month IF I can show proof that their is an urgent need. I plan on getting in touch with the school after Spring Break to see if I can get someone to write a note stating they need his certificate for their records. I am also hoping that my mom will do the same. With that information, I should be able to move forward soon!

So the water heater finally got hooked up on Thursday and I will tell you, that first shower was HEAVEN!!
On Friday I used the day of not being stuck home with plumbers to run errands… After A. left I took Chloe to the groomers (my golden retriever), took Isis to the vet for her shots (my great dane) she was 55.8 lbs!!, back home to drop off Isis, then I then went to the mall to drop off my wedding rings for repair, to Babies R Us to pick up some child proofing locks, then to Wal-Mart to return a CD Player and replace it, to check in on a friend who has been blue, to get Chloe BACK from the groomer, to the feed store to get more food for Isis, and finally to pick up dinner and go home. After dinner we went to our friends’ house to play cards and were there until 2am.
Saturday we went to a BBQ at another friends’ house and were there from 5pm to 2am. Is it a wonder why on Sunday we did not get off the couch?

So I use a Clear Blue Easy Fertility Monitor to pinpoint if/when I ovulate, and this cycle was looking like a bust so I took a break from testing over the weekend. Sunday around 3pm I felt a ton of pinching cramping and I figured “This must be it” so I wanted to confirm it, but it was too late to use my monitor so when I was at the store later that evening I bought an Ovulation Predictor Kit and sure enough, it was positive! You can see my TCOYF Chart here: http://forums.ovusoft.com/chart.asp?cycle=21&id=summerrain&tc=0&p=.
This morning I tested with my CBEFM and got a “Peak” reading, then again I tested positive on my OPK so I know I am going to ovulate today or tomorrow. I hate this roller coaster, I just want it to all be over. I think by the end of the school year this year, Bobby and I need to make a decision if we want to stop trying or not. I am just not prepared to put up another long haul of a fight again.
