    Sorry @eleven_!  I must've been working on it at the same time as you!

    Month/Cycle: 2/1

    Cycle Day/DPO: 26/10 with "new" O date per FF

    Timing: -5, -3 now... ugh

    edit: next month I will definitely be using OPKs to hopefully prevent this confusion.

    Typical LP length: 10

    Testing: Saturday probably

    R/R: I was a pretty avid runner until about a year ago when I tore my meniscus and had surgery.  Since then I have been focusing on weight training (although I run around 1-2x per week, shorter distances).  I have gained about 10 pounds and my pants have stopped fitting due to my thighs and booty.  Not sure how I feel about it yet.  I am used to a leaner look for myself but I know that I am probably technically more in shape than I was when I was running 5-10 miles several times per week.

    CS/Q: 

    GTKY: If you could have a chef, maid, or gardener for the rest of your life which would you choose?

    Probably the maid.  My DH is already a great cook and I enjoy spending time with him in the kitchen.  But the maid would free up our weekends from cleaning which would be nice.

    Month/Cycle: 4/2

    Cycle Day/DPO: 35/5

    Timing: -4, -2, -1, 0

    Typical LP length: Last time it was 7 days, I have nothing to compare it to

    Testing: I will test at 10 days, maybe.. depends on my chart and whether or not AF has shown up

    R/R: RANT: I had an appointment today with a person who wouldn't contact me. I sent out a contact letter, got no response. The next step is an appointment letter. Did that. I called yesterday to confirm and left a message. I showed up this morning and she acted like she had no idea I was coming. Turns out she just didn't response to anything I sent, for no specific reason. REALLY?!? RAVE: It's supposed to be 70 today. I'll believe it when I see it. *TW child mentioned*

    If it is and it's not supposed to rain, totally taking DS to the park after I go to the gym and maybe to get some Ritas Italian Ice.*END TW*

    CS/Q: Here is my chart. I think it's looking good, but I know that doesn't mean anything. Sorry, I tried to do spoiler and I will not work on this stupid computer.



    GTKY: If you could have a chef, maid, or gardener for the rest of your life which would you choose? A gardener. I can cook and clean but I don't know anything really about gardening. I did make our garden look nice at our old house before selling it but  hate weeds and pulling them. I haven't done a thing at this house, but I know I need to.

  • @quidditchcapn1120 I'd be interested to see your chart. That timing still works! Sperm can live up to five days. I'm sure you already know that though. lol The 10 pounds may be muscle, so that's not terrible. You're right, you're probably more healthy now.

  • Month/Cycle:  37/35

    Cycle Day/DPO: 18/4

    Timing: -1, O

    Typical LP length: 14

    Testing: I’m telling myself no, but if there is no sign of AF end of next week then I will cave for sure

    R/R: Yesterday I had a crazy long day and was super wiped out at the end of it. This evening I plan to GTF out of here around 5.30pm. I’m not a robot.

    CS/Q: Nope. Temps up nice and high like they should be at 4dpo.

    GTKY: If you could have a chef, maid, or gardener for the rest of your life which would you choose?
    So if I already have a maid does that not count???
    Actually I would go with a maid/housekeeper. They can also sometimes cook and do the garden.
    When DH has time he is an awesome cook.
    A gardener would be a nice luxury. But then I would want a bigger garden too lol.

    @quidditchcapn1120 +1 to carrying a bit of extra weight, though I was never what you would consider lean in the first place. I am however much more healthy now than I was when I was lighter.

    @adorkablepixie People who don’t confirm appointments really big me. We use outlook at work. It’s simple. You just click accept. I have a meeting with ten people tomorrow, seven have not given any response. So now my assistant has spent the whole day trying to chase them down and find out if they are coming or not!

    CS/Q: Not temping this cycle.

    GTKY: If you could have a chef, maid, or gardener for the rest of your life which would you choose? I would definitely choose a maid. I love to cook, but I hate to clean up the mess from cooking. DH and I love to be outside working in the yard. I would love to never have to fold another piece of laundry again.

    @adorkablePixie and @Emmasemm, biggest pet peeve!  Outlook is so easy, just click the button so I know who to expect!

    @emmasemm I think it is just muscle mass since we have a body fat % scale and my BF% has gone down.  What type of weights/workouts do you do?
  • @emmasemm and @quidditchcapn1120 Yes! So annoying. I think they thought I'd just go away if they didn't respond. Sorry, not how it work. Unfortunately they are out of the organization so I don't know if they use Outlook and if they do, I don't have their e-mail.

    R/R: Rant: I just started temping this cycle and I don't think I know what I'm doing. According to my temp chart I should have ovulated on cycle day 10, but I also used an electric heating pad so I think it threw things off. My temp is a little higher than it was though about 7 days ago around 97.5ish instead of 97 so I think that's good but idk. My OPK was positive Cycle Day 14 & 15. I went with day 15 because I also felt some cramping on that day that could have been ovulation pain. Hard to know what is correct and what isn't though. :/ 

    Rave: Going to go to Home Depot today and look around their gardening section. DH and I are planting a garden for the first spring in our first home so going to just look and try to decide what we want.

    CS/Q: 

    GTKY: If you could have a chef, maid, or gardener for the rest of your life which would you choose? 

    Definitely a maid. My husband likes to cook and we usually do it together where I'll handle sides and veggies and he handles meat (raw chicken freaks me out.) and we both enjoy gardening together. Cleaning....I hate it. 
  • @quidditchcapn1120 girl, I bet you're booty is looking Good! Lol are you following a lifting program? I was doing strong curves for awhile and I saw a bit of a difference. I need to pick it back up.

    CS/Q: 

    GTKY: If you could have a chef, maid, or gardener for the rest of your life which would you choose? Can I say none of the above? I want a chauffeur. I HATE driving. I get so anxious and stressed out about other drivers. Not to mention I have this weird foreboding I'm going to die in a car crash. 
  • @rocketmom88 Oh my gosh! Me too. I hate driving. Any sort of traffic gives me severe anxiety.

    R/R: All rave today: Our big weekly meeting is done. It’s the most stressful thing every week and I’m off tomorrow so I’m coasting into the weekend. 

    CS/Q: 

    GTKY: If you could have a chef, maid, or gardener for the rest of your life which would you choose? I would choose chef for sure. I like cooking, but I work 10 hours shifts and regularly stay late so cooking on a weeknight sometimes feels exhausting. I feel like I would eat healthier if the food was just there ready to go. 

    @quidditchcapn1120 I usually do a mix of running and lifting on alternating days, which I think is the only thing keeping my butt from sagging lol. I used to run more but as I get older, my knee and my hip won’t handle distance.

    R/R:  rave-I am going out to dinner tonight with my BFF, I can't wait.  We work together, so we see each other all the time, but rarely get a chance to go out.  Rant- too many.  

    CS/Q:  not a question, just a statement.  Its a good thing we aren't trying this cycle. The amount of open circles and the dotted CH makes for an incredibly ugly chart, which would drive me insane if we were TTC.  

    GTKY: If you could have a chef, maid, or gardener for the rest of your life which would you choose?  Maid . I enjoying gardening and cooking, and I would leave the cooking dishes for the maid.
    @eleven_, that sucks, hopefully it isnt doing anything when you leave.

    R/R: can't wait for tonight, gonna give my mum (and dad) a big hug. We talk all the time (i used to be awful but have made a conscious effort lately, I'm just not that great on the phone) but I haven't seen them in a few months. I think the plan is maybe a winery tomorrow and dinner at this French restaurant so that will get me through today  :D 

    CS/Q: temp is up again today 

    GTKY: If you could have a chef, maid, or gardener for the rest of your life which would you choose? Maid definitely maid. I am super untidy and it even drives me mad.
  • @AdorkablePixie my boss is awful with that, just random reps will turn up that no-one knows about. Hitting reply on an email with a quick yes or no is not hard!

    @littleredm Sounds like you are probably right about day 15 :)

    @rocketmom88 I hate driving too. Its other people, I just don't trust that  they know what they are doing.
     
  • edited April 2018
    @rocketmom88 I have just continued what I was doing in PT after my knee surgery.  Lots of squats, dead lifts, and lunges.  I also do a HIIT class twice a week and hot barre once a week.  Then running at lunch if I have time (which I usually don't).  

    @lokibear89 Your day today (now) sounds so fun, enjoy!

    @TJtheGoat I am finding that all my joints are getting a bit rickety as I get older (and I'm only 32!). I'm already also having trouble with my shoulders and an elbow, never mind my knee.  Oh the joys of aging.  (BTW, nice timing this month!  Fx!)
  • @lokibear89 You are going to have such a good time with your parents this weekend! A winery sounds like fun.
