    I am packing up to go camping after the little one gets picked up tonight. My husband will bring the camper to the site and have it all set up by the time I get there yay!!!!!
    I will have a few drinks this weekend but I'm going to be good because I'm pretty sure I O'd on Monday and it's the first time in over 6 months.
    So a few gin and tonics or jack and cokes then water the rest of the time.


    I will just say thank you to all the solders, past and present.

    I just finished a cup of decaf coffee, and a smoothies with almond milk, yogurt, spinach, and pineapple.  It's totally Girls Gone Wild up in here!

    This weekend, I'll fantasize about a double Hendricks martini, dry and dirty.

    I'll be going for a waterfall hike in the mountains this weekend.  And thinking warm thoughts for my grandfathers, uncles, and cousin who have served.
    Me- 39 (turning 40 in April), TTC for the first time ever (since Jan 2015), low ovarian reserve
    Married 3/14/14 to my wonderful wife, but her sperm count is rather low

    7 IUIs, 7 BFNs.
    2 IVF attempts, both cancelled and converted to IUI, both BFNs.
    Decided that my tired old ovaries are ready to retire.

    @hooligans4 - yay for ovulating!! I'm celebrating too since it'd been a few months since I last O'd! It's so great when our bodies finally do what we want them to, right?!?!?

    I'm drinking a gingerade kombucha right now. I'm just getting ready for our big dress rehearsal tomorrow. I'm trying to take it easy but have so many things to do. I'm currently at 11dpo (I think) and feeling an odd twinge/cramp from time to time but that often happens and could also be from the progesterone supplements. Trying hard to keep myself distracted, which isn't hard since I'm so busy right now....

    So happy for you @hooligans4! Well today was my test day and it was BFN:( I thought I had timing right this month but no such luck. AF hasn't officially arrived yet but she's approaching. Sooooo with that being said, I had my Bloody Mary that
    I have been craving( well I'm on #2 right now;) and hubby and I are actually sticking around the house this weekend. Shopping for desk chair and maybe wine tasting at local restaurant tomorrow, And some deep cleaning our place. We both have been sick so we need to clear out the germs.

    And God bless those men and Women who fight for this beautiful country of ours!!! Have a wonderful weekend ladies. And once again, I am grateful for this board as these are the times I look for you for support and validation as those BFN's can be a bummer.

    Happy Memorial Weekend!

    We leave for Disney World on Monday, so we're doing all of the usual prep (laundry, packing, etc) this weekend and resting up.  :)

    I probably won't be drinking much this weekend, but will definitely enjoy many cocktails on our trip!  For a "family destination", WDW has some amazing booze.

    I actually have off tomorrow - but dh has to work in the morning so I said I would walk in a parade - little did I know the parade was at 2 p.m. and not at 10 a.m. like I had hoped or thought :(. So between those two things it kind of shoots up the day tomorrow. Monday is the parade where I live, so I can't leave my street till after 1, so not sure what we are going to do then.

    I've been dying for a glass of wine, but I won't unless AF comes in a week and a half.

    Remembering those who served and didn't come home.

    Well my idea of only having a few drinks is out the window. My SIL has been making TGI Fridays frozen mudslides with chocolate ice cream and extra chocolate vodka.
    Yum-o.
    I can't resist.
