Hello Monday! How was everyone's weekends?

[thoseareradishes]

Good here- relaxing for the most part.  Saturday we went to Sonic for lunch and I made enchiladas for dinner.  Yesterday I got outside to work in my garden, then I made some wool dryer balls to try to cut down on some of the static in my laundry.  I made them because the ones on Amazon were $33 for 6!  I bought wool yarn at A.C. Moore with a 40% off coupon so it was about $6, and rolled 3 in an hour.  I hope they work.

It is so nice today that I have a couple of windows open to air out my house.  

I wish my period would get started- I'm either 13 or 15 DPO, so lets get this cycle over with already!

Mine was super lame - I'm finishing up my dissertation so I'm spending a lot of free time on that. Boo. But I keep telling myself it's almost over!

I did come home on Friday and proceed to get drunk though, I had a really rough week. Work sucks big time right now.

I worked all weekend and DH was out of town, so I had the house to myself. however, I had 2 good shifts, so I can't complain too much. got 2 more shifts coming up (tonight, I woke up early for a dr appt and am killing time until I need to go to work, and tomorrow night).

I'm starting to get pretty upset that my cycles keep getting longer and my ovulation keeps getting later, as well. I didn't ovulate until like CD 27 and it was a 40 day cycle. I know I have to go by cycles, not months, but so far in about 6 months I've had no chance to even try in November, Feb, and now probably March since I won't O until the beginning of April. This is the first time I've started to get stressed out by TTC and I hate it!!

I had a busy but good weekend.

Friday night we had friends over for some drinks and some games.

Saturday we had a friend and her 3 kids come into town, which was nice. She came into town for a baby shower I hosted at my house. So I spent the morning cleaning, afternoon at the shower and the evening was spent with pizza drinks and just hanging out.

Sunday DH, my sister, puppy and I hiked 9km. It was painful but so much fun. The dog slept from 3pm to this morning at 6am and then he has been really lazy since. I have gotten a few things done today that he normally tries to help with. I also worked night shift last night. I had so much fun! I love my job. (At least this one, lol)

HoneySpider - good luck with your dissertation.

lo - I hope your cycles get there act together soon! I also have a long cycle and its very annoying!

[thoseareradishes]

HoneySpider - good luck with your dissertation - is it for your phD?

lo- bummer! I hope things even out for you soon.

awick14 - awesome with the 9km hike! I'm hoping that the nice weather sticks around so H and I can walk after dinner again.

Thanks awick14 and thoseareradishes - yup, getting my doctorate in educational leadership!

DH spent almost the whole weekend working on our car.  We've spent about $500 in parts, so I'm thankful we aren't having to pay a mechanic's labor on top of that, but I wish we could've spent more time together this weekend.  (Also, it's still not done, so he'll be back at it next weekend.)


awick14 Good job on the hike!  We're training for a pretty challenging hike we want to do in May, so we were supposed to do a 5-6 mi (~8-9.6 km) hike last weekend, too.  Hopefully we'll get to it next weekend.

Sorry, I am late to the party. I worked an 11 hour day yesterday...blah. This weekend I visited my bff in MD and hung out in Baltimore. I ended up telling her we are TTC - it was nice to be able to tell her in person

I am late here. Friday I had my gums cut down at the dentist and had to get stitches. I had a crown fall off and it cracked my tooth. I need a new crown and there isn't enough tooth to attach it too, so they had to expose more tooth. They told me to take it pretty easy the rest of the weekend. Liquid diet, soft foods, no running and lifting. I was soo bored, but I woke up with a headache and nausea in the mornings and would lay around most of the morning. We did go to our friends house Sat. so that was fun. Sorry, that sounded like quite the Debbie Downer post.

I'm sorry, I have had the same issues.  It is so frustrating.  Hang in there and good luck!

Thanks   Good job on the hike!  I wish our weather was nice because a hike like that sounds so nice right now.
