Today...

... Is the first day of the rest of my life.
... You have 100% of your life left.
... I started my IVF preparations.

I like the last one the best.

This morning I knocked 4 pills down my gullet, tonight I will get 2 more plus start my 10mg Lupron injections.

I can't believe it's actually happening. It's here. It's not being postponed because of surgeries or money or timing with work. In 3 to 4 short weeks I will be having eggs retreived. 5 days after that will be the transfer. I hope that is.

It's hard not to get my hopes up. It's almost impossible to think about the future without a little one to care for.

So here it is. I'm on the train, heading toward my destination of motherhood.

I hope I don't miss my stop....
