Day 24- Superstitious


24 January 2013- I am now trying to finish this project quickly because I am rather superstitious about it.  I bought it last year, while I was stimming for the worst IVF cycle in terms of egg production.  I was working on it in October to relax during the cycle tht ended early and spectacularly badly.  And guess what I have been doing to relax myself and destress in January.  So this piece has some bad baby mojo.  I don't want it. But i need to finish it.  And then I will give it to someone who is either not superstitious, or who doesn't want kids.  Worth noting that in December (when you know, I actually fell pregnant) I was working on other things.  kind of reinforces the superstition.  So, if you want this piece, drop me a line.  Fair warning, I am using it to soak up the anger/sad.

Day 21- survival


21 January 2013- I left one rose at work over the weekend, and it survived.  I wish I could say it was a good sign, but we went to the doctor this afternoon and there was no heartbeat.
