It seems like everybody is having a cruddy week for one reason or another. In order to turn our moods around, can we talk about what is going well in our lives or what we are looking forward to?
I'll start...
I am currently looking for a new job. I had an informal interview last Friday, which ended up leading me to a related company that actually has a job opening that I am perfect for. Within 2 hours of sending in my resume on Friday, they got back to me with a request for a phone interview. I had the phone interview yesterday and am now waiting to hear about the next step in the process.
No matter what happens with this opportunity, I feel like my search is moving in the right direction and I am actually making progress.
Love of my life baby boy born 11/11. One and done not by choice; 3 years of TTC yielded 4 MMC and 2 CPs, through 4 IUIs and 2 IVFs. Focusing on making the world a better place instead...and running.
My new Sales Coordinator started today! That means in about 2-3 weeks she'll actually be able to help me out and my work load will be lightened significantly.
One of our good friends had a beautiful baby today and I am really truly happy for them.
I have a job I love and is what I have always wanted to do.
We are planning our winter trip, we were unsure if we would go thinking I would be pregnant but it's full steam ahead for the Virgin Islands in January.
There is always a silver lining even when thinks seem like they suck;)
Great idea! Not only did a get a BFN, I'm having a killer cycle this month. Boo all around.
Good things: I'm really digging my new position at work this year. I never knew I would even like the area that I moved to, but love it. I miss my old people, but they are only a few hallways away.
My BFF had her second kidlet this week. I'm over the moon happy for her! I'm taking dinner over tomorrow night and spoiling her daughter and new baby boy. I can't wait.
DH and I went for a run tonight, despite my cramps and overall shitty feeling. He is so encouraging. I won the husband lottery.
AND... the next two weekends are unscheduled ones. Score.

i had a REALLY great day working this golf tournament for work. the company that sponsored it had people at each hole, and the folks with me were SO FUN. so it could have been boring, but it was amazingly fun and i didn't find myself thinking about babies at all. all day. which kind of never happens.
I've been optimistic, too, but I'm trying to tell myself that it's okay if it's a BFN. I'm going to Disney World with some girlfriends in October, and if I'm not KU'd, then I get to enjoy the food and WINE festival a bit more, as well as ride all the rides!!
I don't really have anything exciting going on. I'm loving the fall weather. (but then it makes me miss my mom cause she loved this time of year...crap I am a downer, sorry guys.)
My son turns 4 in a couple weeks and we're going to celebrate with family so I'm looking forward to that and all the preparing that comes with it. And lots of fall activities as well.
This is a good idea, being finding the positive amidst all of the crap is important!
I am so looking forward to a couple weekends of no plans. Some minor things, but no traveling and no major commitments. WOO.
I too am looking for alternate work and while I probably won't have a new job in the next few months, my search is going well, I am doing some great networking and in the mean time I have a pretty good job that I am pretty fortunate to have.

Saturday we're going to the Penguins and Pancakes event at our zoo. After we eat, we get to feed the penguins! I told M about it yesterday and he's all "eat PANCAKES!!!!!" Saturday evening we're going to the FB game and getting a sitter to take M home at halftime and put him to bed.
