We have our first appointment scheduled with the OB. We’ll be going next Thursday. Supposedly there’s some other appointment elsewhere that they want you to go to first, but the woman Firefly talked to on the phone was all freaked out that we’re getting close to the end of the first trimester and wanted to know why she hadn’t come in earlier…to which Firefly replied that she had talked to someone in their office TWO WEEKS AGO and was told that they would be contacting her about setting up an appointment once her files arrived from the RE. She’s tried other times with no answer, and was mildly surprised to get one when she called today. It’s certainly not from lack of trying on our part. Of course, I’m also doubtful that she really comprehended when Firefly was explaining that she does, in fact, really know her exact due date, and that she’s already had her first U/S, or that she’s been under a doctor’s care throughout this process which is why they were waiting on her files to be transferred. And we still don’t know if that’s actually happened yet, because the office the woman transferred her to…didn’t answer. Perhaps they’ll actually return her call.
Aaaaaanyway, at least it’s scheduled now. And the other appointment is scheduled for later, if it does in fact turn out that we need it.
So, because of that and other things that evening I would be missing my cake decorating class next week. Spider will also not be able to be there–although she has a much…better(?) reason. Since half of our 4-person class wouldn’t be able to go, our instructor offered to have the session on Monday instead if everyone was okay with it, and since only one of the other women was there and she had no problem we’re on. Next Monday: flowers. Lots and lots of flowers.
Tonight we made bluebirds, which I took a picture of, and some apple blossoms, and a few violets–which Spider and I made in pink since I didn’t have violet coloring when I made the icing last night and it was easier to just use what was already in the piping bag–neither of which I took pictures of because my camera battery was dying. So you will just have to wait to see them.
Oh, my lovely wife has just come in to inform me that she is going to bed, so I shall too. Goodnight!
