15 kinds of parties I'd like to throw

Some of these require time, money, or space that I just don't have...but a girl can dream!

  1. An all night murder mystery party. The game would go long into the night with lots of drama unfolding.
  2. Puppy party. Just lots of puppies everywhere!
  3. Petting zoo party. Why are these only for kids?
  4. Bouncy house party. Lots of bouncy houses!
  5. Escape the room. If I could make my own, that would be the most fun.
  6. Baking party. Just bake a ton of stuff and eat a ton of stuff.
  7. Mermaid party. You can learn to swim with a mermaid tail and there have to be a ton of mermaid foods that I could figure out.
  8. Groundhog Day party. Who couldn't use a party in February that isn't Valentine's Day?
  9. Fairy tale party. Costumes, stories, and definitely games.
  10. Candyland party. This would certainly involve a life size Candyland path and you have to answer candy-themed questions or make candy or eat candy to progress to different parts of the party.
  11. Space party. So definitely food and decorations that are space themed, but I also imagine some trivia and star gazing.
  12. Scooby Doo party. People will be divided into the different gang roles and then each gang will compete to figure out the mystery that I lay out for them.
  13. Ugly sweater party. These just seem like dorky, fun parties with tons of photo opportunities.
  14. Pajama party. Adults can have fun sleepovers too!
  15. Scavenger hunt. Ages ago I planned a big one, but timing never worked out.

Starting my parental journey, part 2

You can read part 1 here . Yesterday I began the next step of my parental journey. Ironically, it was starting birth control. This medicine helps prepare my ovaries for the egg retrieval process. It was weird taking the pill to prepare for my fertility journey because you typically think of the pill as ensuring you don't get pregnant. Obviously, I'm not getting pregnant now, but I am getting ready for that eventual possibility. There have also been various bureaucratic issues that I've been dealing with. Mostly insurance stuff (as I'm sure comes as no surprise). But, thanks to a new benefit at work that started 1/1/24, my journey will be (mostly) covered. While, again, there were some bureaucratic hurdles that I had to overcome in order for this to all work out, I am immensely glad that it did work out. I am nervous though. In part I'm nervous about a lot of the practicalities of this step in my journey. For instance, I will have to inject myself with various medica...

15 ways to support me on my parental journey

I posted yesterday and in August, 2023 about starting my parental journey. If you're wondering how you can support me, here are some ideas I have at the moment (though these may change and also don't feel pressured to do any of these things). Check in via text or DM so I can respond at my leisure (but please don't be insulted if I take a long time to respond) Help with arranging food for me (I know that when I get overwhelmed, I often have really awful eating habits) Offer to help with apartment chores (I may turn you down, but the offer will mean a lot) Walk Hoban (I realize only some people can do this, but the relief of lightening the responsibility of Hoban will likely be welcome) Be understanding if I have to cancel plans (I hope to still be somewhat social during this time, but I cannot guarantee how I'm going to feel) Drive me to appointments (I have the retrieval itself covered, but I have other appointments that will happen leading up to it so if you have the...
