Congrats and Updates

First of all HUGE congrats to Deanna on the birth of her beautiful son! I met Deanna in a ttc chat room over 4 1/2 years ago. This is such a long time coming for her and I could not be happier. She so deserves this!

I haven't posted in forever! The big change since I last posted is my jobless status. I ended up having an evil co-worker who told insane lies about me. Turns out she was trying to get me fired and it got really bad. I just could not take it anymore. Add that in with the fact that my boss decided to quit because she had a baby and I didn't have a manager that knew me to turn to. Finally DH and I decided that the stress was killing me and I gave my notice. I was able to leave with an awesome letter of recommendation and I think it was definitely the right choice. If I thought things were bad with the co-worker before they were a million times worse once I announced my 2 weeks notice! And did I mention she also happens to live across the street from me?! Yeah.

I am actually looking at a job that would start after we return from our trip, but other then that I am waiting on the real job search until after we return from our vacation. Speaking of which we leave this Sunday! I've been getting really nervous due to my plane phobia. It is really pathetic. I have full on panic attacks on the plane without medication. I now have Xan*x and Amb*en in my arsenal so I am hopeful that I will survive the long ass flight and not make the news as the freak that had to be tied down on the plane.

No new ttc as we are on our final cycle break due to my need for the plane drugs. Our plan is to start trying again next month. I should start my period a few days after we get back and we will go from there. I pray we are successful soon!

So I'm off to Italy! I'll be back November 1st. I plan on posting lots of pics on the pic blog. If you want access just send me your e-mail address and I will add you.

Ciao!

Have a fabulous time, I'm still so jealous! My hubby has never been to Europe and I've been trying to get him there and now it'll be even harder...

Sorry to hear about your evil coworker, but good for you for getting out of a toxic work environment. Life is too short for that.

I'd love to see your new blog! I try not to put my real e-mail online so that I don't get spam from webcrawlies, so could you send the link to my blog e-mail? I'm putting stars in the middle of it to protect it from spam, too, so just take the stars out. :)

Thanks for the congratulations! =)

I can't WAIT to see the pics from your trip, so I can drool all over my keyboard. (It needs a good cleaning, anyway....)

So sorry about your job situation. How awful!! Getting out of it sounds like exactly the right thing to have done. Wishing you much luck on a new venture.
