just a little catch up

Well, it turned out the miscarriage did not go as planned. This one decided to be difficult, kinda like the last one, but not as exciting. My numbers dropped and then rose and then dropped and then rose again. Much blood was given, many tests were done and methotrexate ended it all. That was a pain, but not as bad as last time. Got through it and tomorrow is another day.

Last year I hated christmas. All this miscarriage stuff was too much to take. This year it took awhile, but I finally got in the mood around the 22nd or so. Retail will knock your spirit a bit, but I finally brushed it off and went with the flow. I like Christmas, not only do you receive gifts, but you also get to give gifts. I just hope everyone likes them as much as I think that they will. I hope that when they open it, their smile is as big as mine is. I'm almost hoping that they will bust out with "Just what I have always wanted, how did you guess/ know?". It never happens, but I always hope. I was actually able to get out of work for a few days too.

Oh, did I mention I went to the Christmas Night Ravens Game? Did I mention that the tix were in the suite? Man, was that sweet! We got a parking pass, no parking trouble (just jerks directing traffic). Walked right in, there was actually a line for the females to enter, weird. Took the elevator to the 3rd level and found the suite. Room had a few people, even knew a few people. The beer began, the food flowed, and even conversations commenced. Took my other mother or to you all my mother-in-law, we saved our seats and got ready. We were a bit early, but that's ok, we ate, drank, and were merry. Crabcakes, Shrimp, Turkey, Pizza, Crab dip and more. And football all around. The Bears/ Packers game was still on and the flat panel tvs were on two of the three walls. Three to be exact, oohh tv. The game was great, Kyle Boller, sorry, but I still have no faith in you. But, Thank you for not embarrassing us on National television. That I do appreciate! Thank you Mason for stepping up and Ed, as usual YOU ARE AMAZING!!. So glad that you are back. It was an impressive game, I even left there proud to be a Ravens fan. It was the last home game of the season, it was Nationally televised, we played well and won. There was free booze, free food, and a bathroom within seconds of my seat and tv's if I had to wait in line. If you couldn't tell I had a good time and so did my other mother. We came home to the hubbys watching Family Guy and then it was time for bed.

What a freakin' fantabulous Christmas! Man, I love football! I can't wait til August, start fresh and all. It's not even january and I'm already thinking of the preseason. *sigh*
