April ICLW

If you're new to my blog from ICLW, Welcome! If you've been here before... carry on!

I turned 25 three weeks ago. I'm originally from Mem.phis, but currently residing in Talla.hassee with my other half, NYEBoy. We're here for another five years while he gets his PhD and I wait to spend all of his money

This summer marks 5 years TTC. I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2006. I may have another genetic disorder, but since it's rare and I haven't been genetically tested for it yet, I don't want to announce what "IT" is on my blog.

My family is crazy. We put the fun in dysfunctional. My mother is a compulsive gambler and my father is an alcoholic, although neither will admit it. My brother moved to Utah to be with his crazy girlfriend. My sister lives with her baby daddy, Thug Boy. The only thing either of them have done to make the world a better place, was have my beautiful, amazing niece, A.

A is my world. I wish I could take her from her parents and give her the life she deserves. She's the child I've fought for so long to have. I love her as much, if not more, than any child I can't could bare.

I work from home. I'm currently a reseller while I work on my "BIG IDEA" I hope to announce by this time next ICLW! I'm a bit sarcastic, sometimes funny, and even a little vain. Everything you read on my blog is me, I have no shame. You can also find (and follow) me on Twitter.

Basically, it's like the header says. They say good things come to those who wait, these are the rantings of an infertile waiting for her time. In due time or so they say.

Hi there! It sounds like your story is a long one like mine... I was diagnosed with PCOS in 1996 - but ummmm... they didn't really know what it was back then! So going untreated allowed for me to become a full blown diabetic, and have a multitude of other issues... it has taken my husband and I 7 years to be able to have the hope of trying to concieve... so that's where we are today. :-)

Happy ICLW! My favorite time of the month! I wanted to tell you that walmart gave me store credit for my bed set. I'll blog about it today. If they hadn't, I was going to call you in for your mad letter/email writing skillz ;o)

Wow, sounds like you have been on the IF roller coaster. I have a niece and nephew born to my brother who married his teenaged wife because she was pregnant with the nephew, so I can sympathize with you. My SIL and my mom hate each other, which makes family gatherings REALLY fun! Also, my mom clearly prefers my nephew to my niece, so holidays are now completed f*cked up around my place.

But anyway - thanks for telling your story! Your family actually sounds crazier than mine.

Hey there, thanks for the intro. I'm new to ICLW.

Sounds like you've had a rough go of it, but you've managed to keep your head on straight. I know how the crazy family thing goes....

Your blog name is genius, thanks for sharing!
