I frequent the local Caribou Coffee. There is one Starbucks closing by me. There is a Starbucks in the Barnes & Noble across the Street from it though.
Thanks, Nancy! I need to take a better pic of that bag - that pic just doesn't do it justice!
It's a Kate Spade bag and probably my all-time favorite bag of hers I have. I ordered it off Bluefly.com a couple of years ago. I love it... it goes with everything!
I'm a Georgia Bulldog! I met my husband at UGA in Geology 110 and the rest is history.
I'm a CPA, working as a tax professional at a local firm. But I'm also very creative and artistic. I use both sides of my brain.
I'm a Christian and I like to talk about God stuff.
My husband and I are smack dab in the middle of working our way out of debt. We drive old cars and brown bag it.
I'm a huge Dave Ramsey fan, so if you don't like him, I'll probably annoy you.
I love to talk about money and I love helping people with money problems. I'm working towards becoming a personal financial counselor/mentor through our church.
We have two dogs, Belly - an 11yr old border collie mix, and Gertie - a 6yr old lab/pit mix. They're our little loves!
We are members of Buckhead Church and volunteer as 2-to-1 mentors (the church's premarital program).
My husband and I started TTC our first child in November 2005. After a long battle, we finally gave birth to our son, Samuel Nolen, in January 2012!
I want to write a book on my struggles with infertility. And I talk a lot about our journey on this blog, but in no way do I let my infertility define me. This is not an infertility blog; I just want to be an encouragement to others fighting the good fight!
I absolutely love life and wouldn't trade our journey for the world. The struggles we have faced have made me the person I am today.
May 10 - Trying acupuncture/herbs/diet for 3-6 months. I call it my Moo Goo plan.
Aug 09 - IUI Cycle #3, on Femara - BFN
Jul 09 - IUI Cycle #2, on Clomid - BFN
May 09 - IUI Cycle #1, on Clomid - chemical pregnancy
July 08 - Decided to cool our heels for a while on TTC. Not preventing anything, but not quite ready to move forward.
May 08 - My OB/GYN recommended acupuncture. Definitely going to try this in conjunction with IUI/IVF when we're ready.
Apr 08 - Still on doctor hiatus and TTC on our own. Trying to figure out which cycle we'll start our first IUI on... prob May or June.
Jan 08 - For many reasons, we decided to wait on IUI and try on our own for a few months. On Clomid for this cycle...
Dec 07 - The hub's boys are a bit low volume-wise, so RE wants to move forward with IUI.
Nov 07 - RE set out a plan for us: Try on our own for 3 mos, then move to Clomid and IUI for 3 mos. If no luck, we move to IVF.
Oct 07 - Had a follow-up HSG, which showed there is still a small, residual septum (so not quite all of it was removed).
Sep 07 - Surgery #2 - Septum is successfully removed. Minimal traces of endo. were found and removed.
Aug 07 - Depot shot #2. And the hot flashes insued...
Jul 07 - RE started me on Depot Lupron shots for the purpose of softening the uterine tissue for surgery #2 (although the shots are typically given to treat endo.)
Jun 07 - Surgery #1 - Stage III endometriosis discovered and removed, ovarian cyst removed; "weak area" discovered on my uterine wall - septum couldn't be safely removed
May 07 - more and more bloodwork, a renal ultrasound (to make sure I have two kidneys - and yay, I do); surgery is scheduled
Apr 07 - We meet with the fertility specialist (RE) for the first time
Mar 07 - MRI confirms that I have a septate uterus
Feb 07 - HSG shows uterine abnormality
Feb 07 - My progesterone levels are reportedly low, I start taking supplements; the hub has his boys tested and they look fine
Jan 07 - start initial infertility testing with my OB/GYN

Well, the three that are in 5 mins of my work and the closest one to my apartment are all staying open. So I'm good.
Wow! That is a sobering list. Thankfully, mine is not closing.
One very close to me is closing! I'm confused...why?
HHH
Okay, WOW! I had no idea so many Starbucks were closing!
There is one in my town closing, but not near me. DH & I stopped at that one once when heading to visit my parents.
I'm going to miss my cappuccino while watching fountain shows at our Station Square one here in Pittsburgh!
I frequent the local Caribou Coffee. There is one Starbucks closing by me. There is a Starbucks in the Barnes & Noble across the Street from it though.
Well, there are 2 within 50 yards of where I live so I'm assuming one will close but we will see... :(
YAY! All mine are staying open!
No! Yay!!!!!!!!
No closings near me.
I love the bag "you have on your arm", may I ask, where did you buy it?
