15 holidays I could send cards for, part 4

I am always looking for excuses to send cards. You can read part 1 here, read part 2 here, and read part 3 here. Many of these were found on the National Day Calendar website

  1. National Plus Size Appreciation Day (I could send out photos of myself lol, also it's apparently October 6th)
  2. National Leif Erikson Day (I would make cards out of the Spongebob episode, also it's apparently October 9th)
  3. Indigenous Peoples Day (I could get cards made by an Indigenous artist to send, also it's the second Monday in October)
  4. National Dictionary Day (I could either make cards out of old dictionaries or send some favorite words out, also it's apparently October 16th)
  5. National Reptile Awareness Day (I'd get alligator cards of course, also it's apparently October 21st)
  6. Girl Scout Founder's Day (gotta celebrate that I was a girl scout, apparently it's October 31st)
  7. National Frankenstein Friday (there have to be Mary Shelley cards out there, also it's apparently the last Friday in October)
  8. Thanksgiving (I would tell people why I'm thankful for them)
  9. National Day of Listening (I would tell people I'm there to listen, also apparently it's the day after Thanksgiving)
  10. Stay Home Because You're Well Day (I'd encourage people to have a self-care day, also it's apparently November 30th)
  11. National Mutt Day (I can never have enough excuses to send Hoban cards, also it's apparently December 2nd [and July 31st])
  12. Wildlife Conservation Day (I could send out cards of endangered species, also it's apparently December 4th)

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.
