1. Having your husband greet you – ready for a warm relaxing evening at home
2. Seeing the house crisp clean and everything in its place
3. Dinner! I need dinner!

Well.. none of the above for me. This 8 to 5.15-working-and-maidless-woman don’t get any breaks. Today, I came home to dirty laundry, a hungry son, toys on the floor, a sweaty husband who just came back from a footie-match and faulty light-bulbs! Ain’t life great. Must a woman manage everything? From office to home? I need time-off!

Gawd.. this isn’t exactly healthy for the baby, issit. Think happy thoughts happy dappy wappy thoughts – shopping!

I’m trying hard to believe the clomid is doing this.. yess yess this cranky feeling.. its the CLOMID.

If I had my way, I wouldn’t come to work today.. I am having a throbbing headache. I’ve lost my drive. I need more motivation. The boss better give me some sugar quick… hope the office sends me to some exotic island soon.

The hubby mentioned I had a strange dream this morning (before 6am). I was talking.. this wasn’t the first time… I said something in the line, ” Did the other one fell off the bed?” My clever husband assumed I was dreaming about another baby.

I better dream harder than.. who knows it might come true. Sweets dreams to me tonight.

Let me explain a little bit about clomid. Here we go, open Google, type C.L.O.M.I.D. There you go read here. I’m just too lazy to explain in my own words. Well, you’d be too if you’ve been working from 7.30 am to 10.pm. Ngeh. My brain cells stop processing at 5pm for pete’s sake!

So.. how am I feeling today? No mood swings yet, no cramps and no pimples pushing out yet. You’ve guessed it, tis not my first time taking em Follicle-stimulating-hormone-suckers. I took em for conceiving my first son way back in 2003 and I got stupendous results – it was a healthy baby boy (after 4 courses). 10 fingers 10 toes and lovely curly hair!

5 years later here I am again, back to Clomid. Clomid my hero.. lets see how long now. On top of that, I’m also taking Blackmores Conceive Well Gold. I heard they work wonders! We’ll see if they’re right. By saying ‘they’, I mean the doctor, pharmacist and those forums I read online. These lil suckers cost me $60.00 (hope its worth the ka-ching ka-ching). I’ll just have to wait.. time is of the essence.. my biological clock is ticking.

I should be sleeping.. rest rest rest.

I’ll be using the cartoons from the said website a lot. Thank you Cathy! I find them very amusing.. and very relevant.. at times. Oh well. Cartoon first, story comes later and right now I am getting ready for a corporate dinner. Actually, I am not being invited…..just a committee member, a runner, a corporate servant struggling to be on top!  I’ll continue being a mum and a blogger later.

Here’s to a new me and a new project. 2010 resolution here I come. Here’s the adventure of a not-extremely busy mum and her Project Tum. Yupp you expect it, the title is a giveaway, I’m trying for a baby. Well I have a son, he’s turning 5 this Thursday but I’m aching for another one… a lil Tum-tum.

Hear my journey.
