Back On-line

Yeah we have our internet, cable tv and phone back on at home!! It was a long 5 days without them. Thankfully we never lost power, but houses just 2 blocks away lost power, as did the elementary school up the road. This was the kids' last week of school, but they didn't get power back until today, so no school - they got an early start on summer! Trees were down everywhere. My colleague had his tree fall on his neighbor's house.

Not really sure what to write about, so this will be a mish mash of stuff.

I worked out 4 nights this week! Yeah me! I did 2 nights of cardio kickbox, 1 night of step aerobics, and 1 night of zumba! However I don't think I lost any weight because I ate too many chocolate chip cookies. Then today I made some more cookies - banana oatmeal chocolate chip. Hopefully I'll soon make the diet changes so I can lose 8 pounds. At least in the meantime I'll get more toned. I can already tell my arms are more toned looking.

Oh that is so sad about Tim Russert of NBC. I really liked him.

Hubby started his new job this week at a Japanese company. He likes it so far, although he is having a hard time understanding the Japanese accent of some people. He'll get used to their accent eventually, or maybe he'll learn to speak Japanese. One cool thing is he gets a company car. One bad thing is the benefit coverage of DE IVF is in question. While he was interviewing with this company, the recruiter faxed us a benefits summary showing 50%coverage of IVF including DE. Well the benefits material Tony has brought home show a big fat ZERO for IVF coverage. He gets to choose between 2 health insurance companies. One shows coverage for 50%, not including IVF. The other company shows a big fat zero under the Infertility category. I'm guessing that the recruiter gave us the info for California or some other state. I don't know what is up, but Tony is going to have to call his benefits department. He wants me to just call each insurance company, well I did that a week ago and they wouldn't talk to me because we weren't members yet. They referred me to his company benefits dept. Mr. Tony is going to have to step up and deal with this administrative issue.

We still haven't had any further discussions about our meeting with the counselor. We were going to talk last Sunday, but I was mad at him for something (can't remember now), and then the storms hit. We have to talk in the next 5 days because we have to decide if I'm going to do my mock cycle on CD 1 and that is coming up next week!

I know this was kind of a boring post, but I don't have anything too philosophical to say right now. Uh, I just heard thunder. Oh great - more thunderstorms on the way. Oh and sorry for those of you on Google reader - I think I've updated this blog entry 4 times due to spelling and grammar errors. Sorry.
