Don't worry. Be happy.


This is where I'll be in less than 48 hours. Sipping on an ice cold margarita. Or two. Jamaica man! The first vacation we've been on in over 6 years that didn't include visiting family or having a packed schedule. A vacation just for us. A honeymoon. A five year anniversary (a year later). Diver Dude's fiftieth. My thirty-fifth. Christmas. You name it, we're celebrating. And relaxing. Did I mention the margaritas? With temperatures of 30C/86F even I will swim in the ocean. I've painted my toe nails coral red for the fishies :) 


The mind of an IF girl can't help but wander in the direction of miracles. Here's the scenario: I'm ovulating on Diver Dude's 50th birthday. We'll be in Jamaica. We'll make sweet love every morning, noon and night. Relaxed, happy and in love we'll return with a little extra luggage. Two weeks later, instead of preparing for our FET I'll take a HPT and get a surprise miracle BFP. The pregnancy will be text book and I'll be glowing the whole time. Nine months later we'll have a son. We'll name him Bob.


Pinch.
I wake up and admit we don't even have a 1% chance. Azoospermia remember? Oh well, it was a nice thought.


Meanwhile, I'll go back to packing my bags and humming a known Marley tune: "Don't worry about a thing. 'Cause every little thing's gonna be alright..."

  7. Envy!!! I hope you have a FABULOUS time. I could so use a break from the cold rainy weather. Jamaica just might do the trick right now!

    (And even if you don't bring home some fantasy luggage, as I didn't on my 'please-oh-please-give-us-a-miracle' trip this past summer, at least you can have fun *pretending* to try... I hope I'm not being too forward by saying so, but vacation sex is *always* fun!)

  10. Ahh...your vacation sounds heavenly! The weather in my neck of the woods (south Florida) is beautiful and the ocean is still pretty warm, so Jamacia should be just about perfect. And yeah, I still dream about getting to call the RE's office and cancel a cycle because...oops...I'm pregnant. Here's to dreams!

    Have a relaxing time!

  19. Oh my gosh, I am SOOOOO jealous - that looks divine!! I know what you mean about the dream - I had the very same one last year (except a girl) when we went for a holiday even though we had no chance. How about the fact that it will get your body completely ready and relaxed for your upcoming FET. Have a FAB holiday!
