15 holidays I could send cards for, part 3

I am always looking for excuses to send cards. You can read part 1 here and read part 2 here. Many of these were found on the National Day Calendar website

  1. National Pen Pal Day (I could try and drum up some new pen pals, also it's apparently June 1st)
  2. National Megalodon Day (I just love that this exists, also it's apparently June 15th)
  3. National Postage Stamp Day (I could get some really fun stamps, also it's apparently July 1st)
  4. National Coloring Book Day (I could get color-in cards, also it's apparently August 2nd)
  5. National Friendship Day (I love showing my love through cards, also it's apparently the first Sunday in August)
  6. National Book Lovers Day (I could give everyone a book recommendation, also it's apparently August 9th)
  7. National Tell a Joke Day (I could send everyone a joke, also it's apparently August 16th)
  8. National Just Because Day (I mean...how perfect for this post? Also, it's apparently August 27th)
  9. National Swap Ideas Day (brainstorm via mail! Also, it's apparently September 10th)
  10. Talk like a Pirate Day (there HAVE to be some fun cards for this, also it's apparently September 19th)
  11. National Girls' Night (another time to appreciate the ladies in my life, also it's apparently September 22nd)
  12. Hobbit Day (gotta love some LOTR, also it's apparently also September 22nd)
  13. National One Hit Wonder Day (I could send one hit wonder recommendations to all, also it's apparently September 25th)
  14. Save Your Photos Day (I could make cards out of photos and send them, also it's apparently the last Saturday in September)
  15. National Voter Registration Day (I could send cards to potential voters, also it's apparently vaguely in September but changes annually)

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.

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).
