One of our farmers just dropped 300lbs of potatoes off to us for Thanksgiving! That's 100lbs each person.
Wow. What does one do with so many potatoes?
Well, I'm in charge of making mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving for 27 people, so there's that. But I usually put together smaller bags for family and friends and share the goods. Who doesn't love potatoes!
Even though we technically weren't ttc this month and only had sex one day around ovulation I still have this hope that I'm KU'd. It's dumb since it didn't happen the last 4 months of actual trying and I'm just getting my hopes up. I'm supposed to start on Thursday so I'll probably be all irrationally depressed on Thanksgiving.

I hope your KU too . In contrast to your post, I keep having this re-occuring fear that I will get KU. DH had the big V over a year ago, but never had his "goods" tested. So every time we DTD, I fear he is impregnanting me ^o)

What are those? Is it a dish for Hanukah or a play on words?

OMG! Get on that! I know 3 babies born that way!
Crap, now you just made me even more fearful. Babies are blessings, but I SO DON'T WANT ANYMORE! I'd die, we just DTD on Saturday and this is all I could think of. And now it is all I'm gonna think of till my period comes. And I can't get DH to go, he just won't.
my mom has pinkeye so now Thanksgiving is cancelled. I'm sick and don't want to go and battle the crowds to make a huge and involved meal for basically just H and I, so I guess Thursday will be just another day. This holiday season can already blow me.

I have this Christmas card photo concept in my head and fear my OCD tendancies will make it nearly impossible to pull off.
I am goign to try like hell this weekend to make it work. We need our Christmas Tree up and decorated and I need to be quick with the camera and M has to be doing a very specific thing at the right time. Im not sure I can pull it off and that makes me sad.

oooh. Have you got any "symptoms"? are you not allowing yourself to test until late?
I felt so proud of myself because we had a work pizza thing and I only ate two slices with some salad. Then when I was back at my desk I realized how hungry I still was and ate two oranges, a granola bar and half a bar of Lindt. But that's maybe still healthier than more pizza?! maybe... sigh.
My mother used to go through SO many potatoes in our house growing up. Huge sacks of them were purchased very regularly. Of course we ate potatoes every day and there were a lot of us. Potatoes are very cheap.
I love potatoes but I hate peeling the damn things. Especially when they are small. I try to get the biggest ones because it's a more favorable amount of time peeling to usable potato flesh ratio.

Oops. Sorry. But maybe tell him you "know" people who had kids after not getting checked? How long ago was his surgery?

Eh I maybe had some cramping on one side the other day that I thought could be implantation. Haha but I had absolutely no symptoms with D until I was like 7+ weeks. If I don't start my period by Saturday I will test then, it's DHs bday so that would be fun

He actually has told ME stories of co-workers who had a family member and such. One guy had an oops 14 years after the surgery. It could strike any time. He had it done in October of 2012.
I almost had the Joey special for lunch, TWO sandwiches! My dr told me today that she only wants me to gain 15 pounds this pregnancy. I rolled my eyes at that. I'm at the same weight I was when I got pregnant with A. I gained well over 40 pounds with A. I'm sure that will happen again. I did lose it all though. So whatever.

Canceling now because of pink eye? Give her some antibiotics and tell her she will be ok in 24 hours!

I'll talk to her. She was pretty insistent that she is contagious for 2-3 days.
