@crazypuglady And that's why scientists invented Preseed.
@Tennis11785 He is! They do quarterly training that is more online just online stuff but every year they do three days in person, in the simulator, being quizzed and doing a bunch of stuff that doesn't normally happen so they're ready if it does. The whole thing is super realistic and a lot of it is run just like a normal flight. So they don't tell them ahead of time, "Oh hey, this is going to happen." They just operate as normal until whatever programmed problem ensues and then they have to respond appropriately in real time. Here's video of a simulator being installed. If you just go to about 2:14 you can see when they're turning it on and how realistic it is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J-8X43rFkg Same name, same image. Once in a while it looks strange to me, too.
@LuND Glad that they finally have your pup figured out!
@LoveInDC Yes! And of course he called me on his way home and we met for coffee and he was like a happy little puppy who has been praised. Every year. Same thing!
@feeislove For the time being... you should be okay with that or any pre-existing condition.
@canonmom413 Since everyone else covered the sweeter part, I'll just say that at least you have pictures of that awesome nursery so you can copy it WHEN the time comes.
@beachbunnyxo123 So the question here is...what's for dinner? Keep your head up.

@lulu1180 - Sorry you're having a rough day. T&P for you and your sister. Take all the time you need and we'll be here if you ever want to talk about it. Your nickname story is super cute. My cousin's nickname is Aunt "Gigi" (her name is Jen) and I'm sad I can't think of any cute Auntie monikers for myself for when my siblings start having kids.

R/R: Sometimes I get super pissy that I spent most of my adult life actively trying to not get KU to now have it take so long. Like, what the crap, body? I could have been irresponsible this whole time and could have been a mom by now.
CS/Q: Nada.
GTKY: Why were you given your name? Any fun stories? (stolen from TWW) Similar to @crazypuglady - Very 80s first name. Dad wanted one name and mom vetoed so mom's choice became my first name and dad's choice became middle.
@shortstack930 we made so many it was unreal, just sugar cookies though thankfully. I hate sugar cookies which means I won't be tempted to eat them. Lol
WAYDTGKU: Another month of nothing see R/R for my confession.
R/R: I took a mini break from TB because my body was all screwed up. If I had ever thought I was KU it this was the month. Weird cramps, first time in my life my boobs were sore, aching back, and tons of cm which never happened and a crap load of other things I guess I thought I felt. I was convinced. Well, I'm about to pour a drink. I actually took this cycle super hard for some reason. I guess I just gave myself a lot of hope. I talked to my Mother about it last night and I think it's time I make a doctors appointment. I haven't had a pap in 3 years (I know, I know.... horrible) and I haven't had blood drawn in 11. Yup ..... I clearly need to see my doctor. If nothing happens in feb we are having another sa done for df to be sure the reversal worked. Feeling super discouraged. I have been lurking everyday and miss joining in.
GTKY: I think my parents pulled Ashley out of a hat. My middle name comes from my sister who I haven't spoke to in 4 years. She hasn't the same middle name. She's an asshole.
@lulu1180 I'm thinking of you and praying everything is okay. Big hugs to you girl.

@kaitlink33 yum!! I found some chocolate chips in the pantry and whipped up a batch of cookies. I need to stop using AF as a reason to eat my weight in chocolate.

@hartmich we're having that issue too. H asked if I wanted to go somewhere for spring break & he hardly ever likes to travel. But we can't figure out where to go. The places we want to go are the Caribbean-ish and can't because of zika or places like Nashville, which I don't want to go to because it's a lot of drinking & bars and I stopped drinking to TTC.
@LoveInDC nope. No nickname (except my bff right out of college called me Andi)
@crazypuglady I live in Orlando & no reports of Zika. I'm not even worried about it here.
@Kiki75 we have the same middle name, spelling included. When I got married, I dropped my middle name & moved my maiden name to my middle name. So if I have a girl I want to name her Kaleigh.
@LuND Ive been following along with your puppy story. I hope they finally did truly figure out what wrong and he's all better soon!
@FLAshley -Hugs girl. I too had a cycle once I was convinced I was KU. (Long story short, I had a super long LP, but kept testing BFN. I finally got AF after DPO 18..Disappointment was an understatement. (I was holding out hope that I was one of those freaks that didn't secrete detectable HCG. Ha!) Dr visits and a SA for your H sounds like a great place to start.. don't despair love, you're still only on month 5! (Says the girl who will probably be in your shoes in about 12 days lol) PS- Sorry your sister's an asshole. I too have a sister I hadn't spoken to in several years... She's not a nice person. She only recently started reaching out to my mom again and I saw her for the first time in years in August. I still don't like her too much (we're pretty much polar opposites morally), but I can finally have closure to all the crap she put us through and know we can be civil with each other and appreciate we're family.
@purplg8r- That's good to know. Part of me knows I'm being crazy even thinking about it... but the other part is like.. must not take risks.
