what's the story morning glory??

last saturday we went down to Cedar Rapids for donuts. it might seem a waste of time to drive 45 minutes for donuts but i assure u, these are very good donuts... the kind that melts in your mouth.

besides, we hadn't been to Cedar Rapids for the longest time, did some window shopping and asian grocery shopping... and visited kak ta, her egyptian husband and her granddaughter amira. kak ta is malaysian and is our sole malaysian aquiantance when chot started work in Iowa. she's been here since...uh i dunno... the 70's...

then sunday... well, i did nothing much and chot had a football (i mean soccer...) game. came home after and merayu for help. he overdid it at the soccer field and had a few muscle crams there and now needed help to take off his (stinking) soccer attire... and help to get up the stairs... tu la, selalu tak ingat bila main, lepas main baru la berdekeh2...

so nothing much done to the kitchen... although before he went for soccer, he did do the drain pipes for the kitchen sink. and i am happy to report that I HAVE A WORKING KITCHEN SINK. i still can't believe it, even today while washing dishes... it's been so long b/c we took the old sink out end of december, i guess it needs getting use to : )... errr jakun pun ada a bit : D... I have pics but will post it up later...

yesterday, had my last 3-month lupron shot. lupron is a drug use for the treatment of endometriosis... treatment, not cure. there's no cure for endo. what is endo??... i'd link a website if anyone is interested but i don't know how to do that link thing http://www.endofacts.com/understanding/... ok maybe i do... is it working??... anyways, this website also has info on lupron.

so i ask the nurse...

"when can i try to conceive?"... and she says...

"it'll be maximum 3 months after the drug wears off before you'll get you're first period"...

alamak 3 more months??... i got the idea from my doctor that as soon as the drug wears off i'll get my period and when i detact that i'm ovulating, we can have a go on having a baby... right... more waiting. but i guess it makes sense, it takes 3 months for any drug to get out of your system and vice versa.

so went and did some web searching... didn't really help much coz all that did was made me confuse and worried... they tell some scary stories. but will call the doctor and ask her personally on what we should do next.

i hope the endo doesn't come back EVER... that is if i'm ultra lucky... ok, i hope the endo doesn't come back so soon, so i won't have any of those teribble pain... and i don't have to go on any more treatments... and i can just be normal...

i hope we'll have a fighting chance to conceive and have a baby of our own. i hope we'll be able to have a baby... and there are no other new problems... amin amin, ya rabbal alamin...
