Unused Preg-Test Kits
Just now the Mister came back from a long Christmas lunch with his friends. One of them gave him 2 unused pregnancy test kits. Being the nice man that he is he accepted without resistance. He should’ve chucked them in the bin before coming home. We don’t need to be reminded.
What cruel world is this?
I just discovered the loss of Sabin’s kit and now this. Two new, unopened, unused packs of preg-test kits. And from someone who knew about the loss we’ve suffered, no less!
He also told me that one of his friends announced that she was two months pregnant. Lucky I wasn’t there. I probably would’ve left, or possibly gone crazy (or worse-hysterical) if someone tried to give me those damn pregnancy test kits. What kind of person does something like this? Is it just me or was it really mean?
They badgered him about us not being pregnant again just yet. (Why? CAN WE NOT TAKE OUR TIME??!) The sad Mister. He was just so sad. He told me all this in five minutes. He kissed me. I kissed him. We held each other briefly. He kissed me goodbye and left for work.
My poor Mister. 
Last night he had to deal with my hysterics over the lost stick, on top of something his office needed from him. And now this. I want to burn those test kits really, but it’s plastic and it’ll make our place stink.
How can anyone be so crass about something like this, at a time like this?
Ay..and already it’s christmas eve tomorrow..I wonder how I can pull through. Right now it feels like the only way to protect myself is to hide. But the Mister won’t have any of that. He says we must be brave. He is convinced that being with family will help us through all of this. (I’m not so sure about mine..I was kicked out..how does that help?)

We are not trying to get pregnant yet. Please don’t ask anymore. We don’t need preg-test kits. We are on contraceptives at the moment. It’s bad enough already, don’t you get it?
