 I'm not trying to do an ad here, but this thing keeps my coffee hot all day Got it for Christmas from my wife fantastic The cold one today again I mean it's gonna be that much more fun, right? minus 29 oh Winter time is fun so I'm gonna Figure out what I'm doing here. Looks like everybody else or a lot of other people got their trucks running already. Which is good Might have to hop in a different truck today Or if not If they don't got another truck for me today, maybe I can go and give my wife a ride into Winnipeg She has a an ultrasound a Preliminary ultrasound for our IVF treatments that are coming up in the next few months You'll hear me talking a lot about this in the next three months. It's a big deal We've been building up to this for a long time Yeah, well, it's a slow day today and everything is pretty much frozen up good news though My truck 30-06 is running again out of the shop and parked out in the cold That's I guess that's the bad news Parked out in the cold again plugged in but tomorrow supposed to be a warmer day It's a slow day today like I was saying so I'm gonna go and get my blood work done and bring Britt to her appointment and Is there anything else I can get done today I'm just gonna take this day to get stuff done because sometimes it's very hard to get things done when you work Monday to Friday Because all the things you need to get done need to be done Monday to Friday So it's nice to have a data Get everything done like this Off we go open open I Guess I got to push my button. I have a button that opens it from further away But it doesn't always work the best from this side of the gate. It's weird. It works great I can open it from way down the road over there on that side, but this side Doesn't work almost have to be right up to the gate. So I guess the sensors on the other side or something We can't leave town Without our timmies. Ah Boy, it's supposed to be warming up. We've got to head into the winter pet head into the Winnipeg head into Winnipeg right now The fertility clinic that we go to is like way in St. James way on the west side of town So it takes a good while to get there probably good hour hour and a bit So we figure we may as well Timmy up here. It makes the road trip a lot better We've got the goods got the goods And got the wife very important Very important to bring your wife to the fertility appointments Crucial they might say Unless you want to carry the baby I like to try I mean Anything's possible. I could I probably could I don't want to though Yeah, all the stuff she's got to go through. What are we doing today exactly real quick just an ultrasound I'm not really sure what it's for. I guess they're just checking to make sure everything's still good to carry a baby in there And implant. Okay. That's what I thought it was just like a preliminary just a checkup checking things out the first step All right, we've got our timmies it's time to go We have arrived and I am in the official husband's Waiting lot. This is where we wait. They don't allow us to go up there, which is which is terrible So for all of these procedures unless if things change with the restrictions and stuff All of these procedures. I can't even be there in the room with her up there. I have to wait down here in the vehicle And this makes me kind of sad, but uh, you know, what am I going to do in there anyways? And what can I do? It's just an ultrasound for the For the more invasive procedures that she's gonna have to go through in the near future like egg retrieval and the transfer when they actually implant it or Do their thing that yeah, I I think I should be able to be there. I mean I'm the other part of the equation, right? I know I'm may not this may not be the biggest role that I have to play in the equation I know but That's still my little baby that's going in there. I feel that I should have a right to be up there And for that part of it anyways Especially when she's gonna be in a lot of discomfort and maybe pain I'm not too sure how these procedures will go for her Just sort of like to be there But they don't allow that so that's that's a bit of a sad part and that's the world we live in right now so We'll make the most of it and do what we can and uh, at least I'll be right here, right? Just just outside here. She's uh There somewhere around there On that floor Before this whole pandemic thing kicked off. Uh, I was up there because we've been coming here The fertility clinic for years. We've been trying for a long time And I used to be able to go up there and be there with her through all of these But uh, things are different now. So it is what it is Go wait till uh, oh, maybe that's her. She can at least let me know how it's going And you know if uh, any terrible things were to happen, which is very unlikely and very rare I'm just right down here in the parking lot So as close as I can get We'll wait to see what she has to say when she comes down now The Christmas decorations are slowly coming down got the boxes there for some Got the signs in the back here turned to the regular home sweet home So we made it home Uh, the appointment I think went really well She seemed really happy when she came downstairs or down the elevator. It was great What they would the doctor say I have 10 big eggs and that's without any medication So he thanked me for having such beautiful ovaries It was a little awkward, but I like my doctor. What a nice doctor He's a nice guy He really knows how to give a lady a compliment So uh, yeah, so it sounds like our IVF is going to be more on the I don't want to say cheaper end because it's definitely not cheap but on the slightly less cripplingly expensive end Yeah, it might be it looks like it could be up to $2,000 less than what they had predicted Certainly hope so even less than that would be great, but but I guess they gave us the high end estimate So we might not need everything which is super nice. Yeah She seemed really happy and I think it was 10 follicles right not 10 eggs or is it the same thing? It's the same thing. Yeah What do I know? It's just that The strongest one will survive. Oh, okay. They're gonna give me medication not this This time around but next time I guess they're gonna give me medication so that none of them die off And they just continue to grow might be a little bit painful But I'm I'm fine with pain as long as we get a baby out of it And they're gonna give you a little bit of meds to maybe get more Two right. Yeah, it'd be nice to get like 15 20 25 30 Yeah, 15 the 20 eggs and then they harvest them. Oh, they give her a medication Right to make sure that they don't kill each other that they all Yeah, mature so that they all mature and then they go in there and retrieve them harvest them Yeah, I thought retrieve was the nicer word to use but yeah, they harvest They harvest me like a crop So she's I'm not looking forward to that and I don't even gotta go through that Well, we're gonna have a baby. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow But by this time next year we could be parents hope so That'd be so nice all looks promising and they said your body all looks healthy So her body looks all healthy ready to go my body and my guys are all healthy I haven't touched alcohol in seven months now just to I I still drink coffee though. I'm sorry I'm going on three months in no alcohol Yeah, so we're doing all we can to boost our fertility. We don't really know what's uh getting in the way of us No explanation, but uh, I told my doctor we're only nine days into the new year and I'm already sick of green vegetables I've been loading up my body with veggies and healthy snacks in attempts to Make it a healthier temple a healthier breeding ground if you will but I'm sick of veggies I just want cheeseburgers and pizza. That's all I want That's why I married her. That's what that's what I want. That's all I want to eat too. That's why we get along so well That's why I gotta force us both to eat salad.
