this morning the kids and i went to the clerk's office and picked up my divorce response forms. i was awarded a fee waiver (saved me $350 *whew*) which was really good news. that's all i have to say about that!
then, since we were already over that way or something, we went to planned parenthood. the only other time i'd been there was when i was a sophmore in high school and had to drive my best friend's girlfriend (she thought she might be pregnant). this time was a lot less scary, lol. i've never really had to deal with birth control until now. anyway, i have an appointment on thursday to talk with someone about getting an iud placed. i was so sure 6 months ago that i wanted more kids...i don't know now. i don't think i could do this alone again. in any case, while i am whole-heartedly pro-choice, i know that for myself, after having kids, i wouldn't be able to have an abortion. in other words, on the off chance that i don't become a nun, i really need a birth control that works effectively. i had SUCH a horrible reaction to hormonal birth control so that isn't an option for me. anyway, that's more than you wanted to know i'm sure.
oh, but the title...i was really sad to see that there was bullet proof glass separating the receptionists/nurses/doctors from the waiting area. wow. what an amazing resource pp is for so many girls and women and families.
