Staying Busy

Retail therapy, thou art wonderful.  I've been keeping myself busy, busy, busy buying out the stores -- and if I could, I'd buy a baby to fill this hole in my heart.

As it is, I'm just going to have to put on my happy face, try my damndest to ignore the plethora of insensitive fertile word vomit that seems to be spewing from people's mouths these days, and try to forget that on this day last year I was the happiest woman on earth.

I'd pour myself a nice, tall glass of eggnog in remembrance of what wasn't to be -- but I'm trying to set a good example.

Sigh.

Infertile AND sober.  What a helluva way to spend Christmas.

  1. If you could, you'd buy a baby to fill a hole in your heart... wow, I can relate. All the presents seem kind of worthless, don't they? If only we could have our children, we'd give the rest of it all up!!! Thinking of you during this time...

  5. No one should have to spend Christmas infertile AND sober! I say a little eggnog wouldn't hurt :), but I'm a bad influence, so don't listen to me...
    Wishing you a Merry Christmas and hoping 2011 brings better days!
