Reading

It took me a long time to realize I love reading. I haven't read a book since freshman year of college until the Twlight Series. I read all of the books within 2 weeks and after that I was hooked. It took me a while but Jessi and Joe got me Dear John for my birthday I jumped right back into reading. Next the Lovely Bones and now I believe after much encouragement next is Harry Potter. Reading is so relaxing for me. I can get lost in a story very quickly and then I cannot put the book down until I am done. I have spent many days reading for 8 or more hours. I am a relatively quick reader so books just never seem to last me long enough. I am very open to suggestions...anyone know of any good books?
When I lived close to work I would go home on my lunch hour. Now that is not and option I pack my lunch and have a whole hour to occupy, so now I read.

Speaking of packed lunches. It's the new year and time for the fertility Dr. I decided I would start up weight watchers again. It's best for treatment and I want to do everything I can to help things along. I found a new Dr that recently added to our network. He is located at Bethesda North hospital and is about a 15 minute drive from work. So I could go on lunch for apointments. I haven't met him yet so hopefully he is nice and proactive as my old Dr. The dr who took Dr Williams spot was not very respectful. I have to have a Dr who is personable and he was not. Wish me luck the new guy is as wonderful as my old one.

I went to him if he is who I am thinking of. He was recommended to me by Dr. Lea when I was going to have my tubes reversed after Emily was born :) He seemed to be highly spoke of. Good luck and may I become an aunt this year :)

i went to a fertility doctor today and he told me that the best diet for pcos is a low carb diet. I was so worried about seeing a new doctor. but i love him. Also rated number one in the area. I believe i know of the doctor you are speaking of and have heard he is very rude with the bed side manner. I am seeing dr alladlah and schrief. There office is in Rookwood. He was so personable. And didn't ever make feel stupid or not deserving of help. Hope you the best of luck. Remember that i am always here if you need a buddy that is going through it too. It is not an easy task with no support. Best Wishes.

I have two suggestions...Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See And The Heretic Queen by Michelle Moran
I just finished the Heretic Queen and wanted more!

The Harry Potter books are wonderful! I love to read and waited until they were all out and read them all at once. Completely recommend those :-) I also love Everyone is Beautiful by Katherine Center.

Sarah...we are on an exclusive network for insurance and while the coverage is excellent we have have a few Drs to choose from. I have 4. My dr currently who is crummy this dr and the drs you are seeing. The problem for me is now that I am doing injectables I have to get monitoring more often and I have to be able to do that on my lunch. So they have to be close. I have hard good things about your Drs as well...I wish I could go there instead.

Books- i 100% agree with Christen about Snow Flower and the Secret Fan. Lisa See is a good author and i also liked Peony in Love- it's a love story but with a twist and i think you might enjoy it.

Fertility- i am keeping my fingers crossed that this Dr could be the one. also hoping he is nicer than the last guy, for whom i still have a flaming bag of dog you-know-what for being such a jerk to you. you & Joe are always in my prayers in thoughts.

Next on our list is The Last Song too. I think you and I should take turns buying the books so we can just share hehe ;)

We could do that! I am totally hooked at reading the books and going and watching the movies together. So much fun!
