Santa baby (2020 edition)

What song should I do next?

Santa baby, just slip a face shield under the tree for me

Been an awful safe girl

Santa baby, so social distance from me tonight

Santa baby, a box of N95 masks too, light blue

I'll Zoom you late my dear

Santa baby, so social distance from me tonight

Think of all the fun I've missed

Think of all the fella's that I haven't kissed

Next year I could be just as safe

If you check off my Christmas list

Santa baby, I want a shot and really that's not a lot

Been far apart all year

Santa baby, so social distance from me tonight

Santa honey, one little thing I really need

The speed for the vaccine share

Santa baby, so social distance from me tonight

Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with some Lysol and gloves

Give your all for freshness

Santa cutie, and social distance from me tonight

Come and see my Christmas tree

With some decorations bought on fav Etsys

I really do believe in you

Let's see if you believe in me

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing

A ping, I do mean on the phone

Santa baby, so social distance from me tonight

Social distance from me tonight

Distance, tonight

(Prompt by me)

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...
