No Peace

When my kids haven't been sick in awhile, I am very superstitious. I will never say aloud that "My kids haven't been sick in a long time." I also never brag about how long it has been since I have had a speeding ticket. Somehow, I feel that I am tempting fate.

So what do I get for writing a post about having nerves of steel? I get 7 more days of waiting! That's right. The doctor called. The lab accidentally put my bodily fluids in the "10 day test" not the two day, (called FSH), test. So, I am going to have to wait another week. We'll know the results next Thursday.

For having nerves of steel, I can tell you that I could barely answer my phone. When I saw the number, I knew the doctor would tell me my results. Boy was I surprised! I was nice but on the inside I was screaming "How can this lab be trusted if they screwed this up?" But, I bit my tongue and said that I would talk to him next week.

So now we wait some more. Luckily, with this economy and my husband's job, we have a lot of other distractions. More tests to my nerves of steel.

I've been thinking about you all day. I'm sorry you have to wait longer.

There are people praying on the other side of the world for you and Mr Indy, whatever happens. Positive energy coming straight at you. Don't worry if your nerves of steel shake a little. xox

Awe crap! I've been thinking about you all day but wouldn't call because I promised you I wouldn't. You're a much better person than I am. I would have told the Dr. what I thought. Well, hang in there. You're in A LOT of people's prayers (and I believe in the power of prayer). If you need any other type of distraction (besides day-to-day stuff), call me and I'll take you out and we'll have some laughs. If I have to, I'll call Kathryn, too. :o)

Jessica said...

Same as OHMommy, I got worried!

But, keep it up, girl, with those nerves of steel! You can do it.

I'll be thinking about you.

Hang in there!

Some words, we can not say. Fear their words become a reality. (Indeed a bit superstitious):), hope you can wait for a good outcome.

Wish you strength in these days!

I also read the story about Italy/Holland. You know I am from Holland...and indeed...it is beautiful over here. I hope you know what I mean by that.

Cross my fingers for the good! And that this week will go very fast.

Way to have a positive attitude. I hate it when labs screw things up; I think I would have probably gone in and requested another 7 day test.

You are much calmer than I would been. Thank goodness for distractions.
