Heh. So much for thinking I might be insem’ing a wee bit early, if at all, this month. Sitting at home, alone, yesterday afternoon I decided to do a OPK test, just in case. I’d done one on Saturday night but it was very clearly negative so I wasn’t thinking much about this one.
It was, [...]

oh boy. horrible stuff.
Perhaps I’m a bit slow on the uptake but I just read about Lawrence King. There are so so many things wrong with this picture, I can’t even begin to list them. That poor child. His poor family.
You can read about it here.

just ok
I try so hard to feel positive and upbeat about my life right at the moment. I try to heed the words of bloggers wiser than me. I look for the joy. Sometimes I find it. But the truth is that no matter how hard I try to make it different, my life is on [...]

Personal Training
I know it’s been another week long hiatus but this isn’t like the last one, truly. I may not have been to the gym in a while but I definitely feel like I’ve run a marathon (which parallels nicely with the lovely marathon metaphors offered to me when I was sad and sorry last week [...]

Housekeeping
I’m teary, distracted and the only one in the office today but in the spirit of blogging at work, I will try to keep this brief.
Melbournites – I know there are at least a hand full of you out there. Who is you GP? Do you love her? Is she open to complementary therapies? I’m [...]

Almost Proud
There are many things about this amazing country that I truly love yet I have never felt proud to be an Australian. I am not much into patriotics and nationalism but this morning, as I stood with thousands of others to hear our PM apologise to the Stolen Generation of this country’s first people [...]

Sad, sorry and out
I’m bleeding. Another month, another tiny break in my heart.
I don’t think there’ll be too many more months that I can take this without it having lasting damage. It’s not so much the disappointment of a BFN that fucks with you, rather it’s the crazy 2ww. It cannot be good for you to feel that [...]

Sorry
White Australia has a black history. The wounds are deep and the scars will outlive you and I. It’s been a long time coming and it’s certainly not even close to enough but apparently our government is finally sorry. Tomorrow will be a momentous day in the history of this country and one no [...]

Bring on the chocolate and roses and reject the broken hearts
It’s been a pretty sweet weekend here at Chez Plump. The idea of me being pregnant is getting more tangible and less conceptual these days and even Ducks is getting into reading all the baby books. Until now, I’ve pretty much driven this TTC machine and have felt a little nervous about it in the [...]

back on the horse…
Wow. I have been a slack blogger. Even when I’ve blogged in the last little while, I haven’t really blogged. It seems to me that blogging is a bit like going to the gym. It’s all good and fun and inspiring until you miss a day or 2. Then 2 days becomes 2 weeks and [...]
