Small Good Things

1. Apparently Dr. Gorgeous was quite pleased, yesterday, with the new follicular development. I'm not over-the-moon excited but I, too, am pleased with how things went today. RO: 20, 14; LO: 13.5, 10; Endo: 10. What this adds up to is the tech I saw yesterday mismeasured things (which I suspected), as I highly doubt both my uterine lining and a brand new follicle shrunk in the past day. Bottom line: I've got two in the mature range (though I wish that 14 was a bit bigger) and that 13.5 is still in the running for extra growth by tonight. I should start hiring myself out as a fake RE because it seems this crazy Ganirelix plan worked.
2. First cherries of the season at the market today. Yum!
3. Reading fiction (mostly) unrelated to my work. It's how I made it through last summer, and it's helping again (much more so than meditation ever could).
4. In two weeks, I will be alone in my house for three days (not counting the feline, of course). LG is headed to her grandmother's and, while I will miss her, I've needed this to happen for a while. That it will occur during the most insane part of the 2ww is even more welcome.
5. Not teaching this summer. I'm being pretty productive, these drives to the clinic aside, and enjoying being able to think and work without the added time and pressure of class prep. And if everything goes as I'd like (ha!!), I could have a post-tenure sabbatical on the heels of maternity leave.
