$14,707

Today I officially purchased my IVF meds.  Luckily we have flexible spending account cards with around $9500 on it to take care of most of the cost.  The meds should be delivered on Tuesday.

I also spoke with the doctor's office and was given the cost for the doctor fees, lab fees & surgery center fees.  We will have to spend around $5200 out of pocket to cover the rest of the fees after we use up our flexible spending account cards.  This is the only time I will say that something good is coming out of my husband being deployed.  We have much more money in our bank account with the money he is making there and the fact that he is not here spending money and we aren't going out to eat and stuff. 

I also gave my boss the potential dates for everything so he would be prepared when I need to have days off for the retrieval and transfer.  So far all my ultrasound and blood work appointments are falling on days that I am off work or when I go in late.  Everything is going so smoothly so far.  I hope that's a good sign!

Tonight I went to Alicia's house to watch Sex & the City 2.  We had wine (about a bottle each...opps) while watching.  It was okay.  I thought that some of the parts were pretty cheesy.  The first movie was definitely better. 

Two more days of work before the weekend.  I can't wait.  I'm ready for a couple days off!
