Down the Path to Self Pity

I am just taking a little walk down the self pity path. Won't you walk with me?

I have started my new job in the ICU at Lourdes, our local hospital. It seems to be a good job, although my new manager seems to think that I can work, oh whenever the hell she wants me to, no worries that I have two kids and an ex husband that I have to share them with. Also, I recently found out that the whole reason I went to ICU, the CRNA program, is now down the toilet. In order to be in the program you have to move to Madisonville, an hour and a half away from here, for 22 months. HELLO, I HAVE KIDS!!! So there is no chance for me to do that right now. And I would rather be doing something else in the hospital. So I am little bummed/pissed about that whole situation. My father says "Boy, why can't you and your sister ever be happy?" Maybe that is true, why can't I be happy???

Then, there is my awesome fertility status. According to my progesterone level, drawn a week ago, I ovulated. According to my uterus, I'm not pregnant. NICE. I mean for real, WTF. Everyone is so sure it is me being too anxious about it, or too fat or my favorite "a fertile couple only has a 1 in 17 chance of getting pregnant the first month." LOVE IT. How is that supposed to make me really feel better? I'm taking a break, and going on a diet. I'm tired of this infertility shit.

Sorry, I was in such a good mood tonight. Thanks for being such great friends and reading.

I'm sorry things suck right now. I'm sure things will look up soon!

Aww, Ali, I've been thinking about you a ton. I know nothing I can say will make it better, but just know you are loved and I'm thinking about you. :)
