What are you lovely ladies up to this fine Saturday afternoon?
DH and I have been at each others throats today. So we are playing the silent game. Not sure what's up with that, hoping CD1 is going to show its face soon. That would explain a lot. Just kind of hanging out upstairs, surfin the web while he hides out in his "man cave".
Might make my way over to visit with some friends and clear my head. It's been a stressful past two months and I could use some good girl talk.
Hope you ladies are enjoying your day.
((Hugs))

Re: Boring weekend.
*hugs* to you.
AFM we just did the 13 hour drive to VA to the IL's for our 2 week visit. I'm all cranky because I'm still sick and I haven't slept for over 24 hours. Drinking some hot tea with honey whiskey now and I'm hoping that helps
I'm making pizza and working on a batch of christmas cookies. I'm way behind on my holiday baking this year. So not into it. But, Dh asked for Crispelli so I'm bucking up and getting my hands dirty.
I find that I attack DH more strongly just after the triggers. It's like I'm focusing on him and things he does to annoy me in order to cope and try not to break down in tears. But that seems counter productive. Shouldn't I be nicer to him so he will be more comforting to me when I'm upset? Rhetorical question.
Football is about to start and that will be a great distraction! Can I root for both the Eagles AND the Redskins to loose?!?!?!?
Is anyone else here a football junkie?
Btw: GO COWBOYS!!!
I do the same with MH. He definitely takes the brunt of my frustrations but I know better and actually warn him ahead of time I'm going to be crazy and irrational. Not sure if that helps him or not lol I hope it gets easier for you *hug*
I used to love football but they started having too many rules that kind of pussified it for me. I still enjoy it (love NFL red zone) but MH and I prefer hockey.
And I'm a Bucs fan... Could explain why I am not too excited about it right now lol
I just finished at the mechanic for my car's 30,000 mile appt. and hoping to FINALLY finish up Christmas shopping this weekend. This may be the earliest I've ever finished holiday shopping, usually I'm out on Christmas Eve Day doing shopping.

Today is a big baking day. I'm taking a tiny break at the moment because I just finished the spritz cookie press cookies.
Evil contraption that the cookie press is. I feel like I just had an arm day at the gym.
Beyond that, not much. Listening to christmas music. Drinking booze because I needed it about 30 seconds into the cookie press. I'll wrap some presents later and then probably go to bed early because I have another day of baking ahead of me.
I'm pretty alone because it's Nutcracker season and my husband has work a lot until the day after Christmas.
Counting down the days.

I went in for my first round of testing and then my sister came over to make cookies. I'm still sick though
I hope everyone sick feels better soon!
Mr. Bug and I ironed out what we wanted to eat on Christmas Eve and did some grocery shopping. We found an organic grocery store that's about ten miles from us and decided to check it out. We also bought a lamp for our bonus room.
We are now watching a Top Chef marathon.

@Crunkal FX for cd1 soon!
I had a pretty lazy day. I went for a run, did laundry, watched tv and movies all day, and cleaned the tv and computer screens because starting at the need to do it motivated me.
Tonight DH and I are going bar hopping with some people from the gym. Yay! Our trainer/gym owner arranged it as the holiday get together.

My Chart
I know it gets "easier with time" but I can't imagine that anyone ever "gets over it". It's so soon from my first loss that maybe I'm too sensitive but I really can't think of a moment when I won't miss the dream that I lost. But I don't think I'm the only one...
Again, I'm so sorry!!
@Crunkal sorry it got bad and you had to leave but glad that it's a bit better now. The holidays seems to be a high stress time. *hug*
@heartbot sorry you're mother was so hurtful. Sometimes I don't think people think before they speak. It's insane how insensitive people are about pregnancy loss. I guess if you've never experienced a loss you just don't understand.
I'm ready for the holidays to be over already.
