Our Boy is Visiting

DtD is home for a visit. Yay.

It's strange because he's been gone almost a year and he calls and is "Hi, whatch y'all up to?" like NOTHING ever happened. I expected him to be all strange and different and he's the same. In a way it feels like the last almost-year never happened.

He's supposed to be home in October and I have a bad feeling that he's going to be gone another year. We need to confirm this but it's going to make my stomach hurt and I don't want to know until he's gone again. My favorite way to deal with difficult issues is to sink myself fully into DENIAL. Being an emotional adult is a constant struggle.

In the meantime, we're hanging out and enjoying seeing DtD interact with an older Finn. Pretty dang cute. Finn gave him a kiss and a snuggle the other night and it was very sweet. It made me feel really good about using a known donor.

Can't you get him to donate some samples to freeze for when you're ready?? Not sure what storage fees are like, but that way you could do things on your own timelime...

It's complicated. We'd have to do a quarantine and it's very expensive. We're pretty much stretched to nothing financially at this time so bargain basement home insems with a syringe are our best option. We also have no idea how his swimmers would freeze so it could be a whole lotta money for nothing.

Ah...well thats too bad. I hope everything works out the way its meant to in the end. Maybe waiting till 2009 will give you guys the chance to save up and try clinic insems so increase your chances of conception right away...
