I haven't been on the internet much and have only had the chance to skim through my reader of all your blogs, so no commenting this week, I'm sorry!!
But, the good news is that all this activity had kept my mind off 'me' and I really needed that. So, blessings have come disguised as a woman who claims to have birthed me, but looks, sounds, and acts nothing like me.
Furthermore, she doesn't like Asian or Indian food, claiming that "Oriental Flavor" a bit too much. What the hell does that even mean??? We pretty much have six food groups in this house: Thai, Japanese, Indian, Korean, Vietnamese and Malay/Indonesian.
We have no idea what to feed her, but we're managing. Now she knows how I feel when I go to Misery (Missouri) and claim there's nothing to eat!
We are having a pretty good time, though, all things considered. She's a much better mother at 69 than she ever was when I was growing up.
Thank god I escaped the SW Misery accent. That's all I have to say about that.
See you next week, when there's more time on my hands.

Next year, let's be the mothers on Mothers Day, ok? :)
Stuff her silly with white rice! What, with jasmine, basmati, sticky rice and all the other varieties, she'll never get bored. Seriously though, it's good to hear that you're having a nice time, and that's she's providing a distraction from other things.
I totally ditto Lizzie!!
No Asian food? Man, that's tough.
I hope the visit stays relatively fun!
sending happy thoughts of future fantastic meals of bulgolgi, sushi, and saag paneer your way!
glad to hear the visit's going well otherwise.
Hang in there. Can't wait to hear all about it.
Ack!!! That's a lot of mother stuff to deal with. You should take your mother to an Irish pub and let her load up on potatoes, carrots and red meat. That's what we do with my mom. It's almost sinful to visit NYC and not indulge in the great food options!
Hang in there lady!
Wow that's a mother lode of mothers!
Hope you've still been having a good time this week :)
Thanks for your comments and suggestions. V did have a saline infused something or other (is that the SIS?) back in Jan, then had polyps removed in Feb. Seems they’re back (a world record?) or maybe he just missed it (lining was quite thick when he did it). That is next week's procedure. She didn’t do the clomid challenge, but he did check fsh levels on cd3. I’m hopeful that we’ll have a better idea once he gets a good look around in there next week!
Hi Pufferfish,
Sounds like you had an eventful Mother's Day.
I'm a physician and former faculty member at Harvard and Stanford Medical Schools. I discovered your blog while looking for the best health writers on the web.
