This might be Margot's lucky day.

We've been with Verizon for some time now - almost 4 years. Our contract ends in February of next year. However, I was told that since they keep raising our "Administrative fees" that legally we can get out of the contract at any time.

I visited the Sprint Kiosk a few weeks ago at our local mall and looked at some of their plans. A few years ago I had Sprint for work and the service didn't even work when I walked in our house! To say the least within a week I had gone back to Verizon.

Now, I have to look at T-Mobile and their great plans. Not to mention T-Mobile phones! They are HOT! They offer the Motorola RAZR and the Motorola PEBL. Yes, the Motorola they are offering free is the one that I spent over $200 for. Please, don't rub it in!

I like the cool and sleek design of the Motorola PEBL though.



I think we'll all have to hang on for a few months to see what cell phone providers are going to carry the i-phone. We're dying to see the reviews and hopefully, it'll be as great as all of the critics are saying!

Until then, we'll just hang out with our old broken phones and crappy, overpriced service and wait.

CD 14

So here's the deal. I peed on an ovulation stick and it looks like I almost have two dark lines. Of course the control line is dark but the test line looks to be getting just as dark.

So I'm debating actually going to New York City for the next few days to get sperm.

It's such a hike and of course there's still the question of what to do with Grammy. I hate messing her schedule up. She's already been out of daycare for nearly two weeks now and I feel like we're just starting to get her back on track.

Maybe I'll pee on another stick this afternoon and then tomorrow and see what it shows.

Aching in Vancouver?

Look no further.

Vancouver Personal Injury Lawyers are there to help! Lawyershop.ca offers a great website with plenty of listings and recommendations for top attorneys in the Vancouver and surrounding areas.

The listings are arranged nicely and the website is easy to navigate. Not only can you get the contact information including concentrations, websites, but also the phone numbers of the various firms.

I just stumbled across a hot new dating website. Now don't feel the need to tell Margot about this one. It's not just for dating but for meeting other people with common interests! They have games, profiles, and other cool information about people!

Person.com offers chat and also webcam useage. The great thing about the webcame option is that you know that you're not just dealing with some yucky grandma on the other end! When using a webcam it's a pretty sure deal that you're getting the real thing.

Just make sure that at some point they smile and you can see their teeth. (Take it from me...)

Check out Person.com - webcams, chat, personals!

CONGRATS TO ME!!

I'm laughing my ass off about now because this website has moved up the ranks and now has a page rank of 3! Go figure, the website that I set up to talk about my periods, ovulation, trying to get knocked up, and miscarriage ranks higher than our intimate portrayal website full of pictures of Grammy.

Who's ya mama?

Backwards eBay!

I love winning and I hate eBay. I have been sniped so many times for things I'm bidding on and in the end it just frustrates me! Now there's a way that I can win auctions and prizes!

bid4prizes offers a great way for Unique people like me to win Unique auctions! Just like that!

Right now they are accepting unique bids for a new Scion. Of course, being that I'm quite selfish and love gifts - I'd more than likely keep the new car and sell my other car for some hot cash!

I've got this great website bookmarked and I'm sure to visit it.

That new car is MINE!

Yikes!

I didn't even realize cause I've been so busy ... but I haven't taken a break in quite some time.

Good thing it's a weekend and Margot's watching Graem. God knows she'd be tearing up the house about now!

Got education?

I've thought about getting a higher education but I haven't been able to find a credible program that offers flexible scheduling at a reasonable price.

I've thought about online education but I'm not sure if that would really work for me. I'm not sure how disciplined I would really be with my part time jobs, business, and kid.

Capella.edu offers an online university where you can get many different advance degrees. You can also check out Capella.edu and read articles written by Sara Orem "Appreciative Coaching: A Positive Process for Change".

Where is O?

I'm not sure if I O'd or not this month. I did take a ovulation test a few days ago and I only had one line. So I don't know if I surged or if I just didn't do enough sticks. I'm thinking I might have O'd on the airplane. I had tons of CM and that would have been CD 14.

Gotta love how when we get back from vacation I go in for surgery. I don't know whether to hope they find something or not.

At least they would be able to remove the scar tissue and that might be the answer to why I'm not getting pregnant.

Gotta pen?

I love cheap pens! Every time I go to the doctor's office I try to sneak some of the pens that the pharmaceutical reps leave.

I just checked out PensRUs.com and instead of stealing the pens from the doctor's office I can now buy my own pack!

Of course, the best part about PensRUs.com is that the pens are so darn cheap!

Maybe I'll have to get my name printed on some and hand them out for Christmas and Birthday gifts?

Get the leads...

I was just talking to Alex the other day. Alex is an advertising manager and works with an agency that does advertising for airlines. They basically find clients and then represent them and buy space on airlines entertainment channels.

The main problem that he's having though is stirring up business and getting quality business sales leads. His market is really any organization that wants to get the word out to the middle and upper class who might be traveling on the airlines.

Alex should look to a company like MartinWorldwide.net. They offer lead databases that will give him nice leads and a headstart to getting some quality customers.

The amount that his company would spend on these demographics would be paid for with one customer signing up with them.

Who knows...

what our gameplan at this point is to get a baby! We obviously skipped trying this month because it was just too hectic. However, I have a feeling that I ovulated right before we left and it might have been a good attempt.

I got my Clear Plan fertility monitor in the mail the other day and so either I can do a clomid cycle next month or I might even have enough meds to do an injectible round.

I think I'm going to travel Wednesday to pick up some donated meds for a friend. I have to travel 4 hours each way...but I figure it's worth it for almost $3,000 worth of meds.

Our consult with the place in San Diego went really good and he confirmed what every other doctor has. I have never been stimmed properly and I've never really had a fair attempt at getting pregnant.

So I'm feeling that maybe we will go through with IVF and IVF New Jersey. It's somewhat local and we could stay with Margot's Aunt and Uncle in Jersey. Plus, they aren't totally outrageously priced. I think the cost for IVF is around $6,000. Which seems to be the going rate. Plus, their success rates are high and staff seems really on top of things.

Slept like a baby!

Last night we went to bed at around 11:30pm or so. I closed my eyes and was gone. I slept so good and Grammy and me didn't wake up til 11 o'clock this morning!

Thank God, Margot woke up and picked the dog up from the kennel or else she would have been there for another day.

Ready for vacation!

With all of the stress of traveling for the funeral and also intensity of the situation I can't wait to go on vacation in a few weeks. We've really been waiting for a while to do a family beach vacation and couldn't be more excited.

Since we like beachy places more than likely at some point we'll want to check out a Puerto Vallarta all inclusive vacation.

We have been on all inclusives at St. Thomas and our next stop is Cancun. We love the fact that we can eat, drink, and be merry all we want and it's the same price no matter what.

Vacations.net offers some great deals too for travelers looking for any type of vacation. Plus, they specialize in all-inclusive vacations.

Heading home tonight...

Well, we're heading home tonight and I'm quite relieved. It's been a great trip but there's no place like home. We've hung out with Margot's family and it was really a pleasure to meet them.

I also think it was so good for Margot to say her last good byes and for Graem to meet her great great grandmother.

Today we're heading to the church and then we're heading to the hospital since Margot's great great grandmother is there for a possible TIA.

Out this cycle.

With all of the pressure and stress that everyone's been facing we've decided not to do an insemination this month. I'm totally not disappointed and I think in the end it wouldn't have worked anyway because of the stress not to mention there's so much pollution here in the Philippines I'm not sure my little egg would have survived!

From the marketing guru

When marketing my business it was always important to do market research. It's always important to do market research on an audience or group before spending money on advertising or marketing projects.

You've got to know your audience in order to get the best response and to market your product effectively.

So many companies enter into larget marketing campaigns without actually knowing who they are marketing to - what a waste of money!!

Interesting.

It's been so interesting for me to see the Philippines. It's very Catholic here and there are Catholic churches everywhere. Margot's mother's ceremony was Catholic and they had mass every evening.

Catholic gifts are always a good idea to give the family because they would really treasure them and hold them close to their heart.

GetFed.com offers a great website where you can buy gifts online and have them shipped. Christmas shopping and birthday shopping made easy.

The gift that keeps giving...

I'm talking about silver of course!

One thing that never loses it’s value is silver coins! Even when our stocks are floundering you can always look to silver, gold, and precious metals to maintain their value.

Monex Deposit Company offers silver, gold, and other precious metals for delivery or they will make arrangements to have your metals stored privately and securely at a bank or depository.

I didn’t realize this but Monex Deposit Company (MDC) is an industry leader. They sell gold in two forms: coin or ingot. The world demand now exceeds the supply demand for gold - which makes it a pretty smart investment.
