    @kbrown2385 have an awesome time with your brother! Which day is your birthday? Mine is the 29th, yay Christmas babies!
    @stephanie123456 mine is typically within a day or two every month! 
    @littleredm FX for minimal side effects! I hope you and your family friends have a good night reminiscing about your dad. That will be good for everyone. Sorry to hear about your brother :(

    R/R: I mean shoot I want to be part of the TTGP excitement! How awesome was that this morning/ this week?! We hosted our inaugural pre-Christmas brunch today with some of DH’s family and it was a huge success so I’m feeling very accomplished! And exhausted. My parents are very proud that I set my first proper table  :D

    CS/Q: still nothing to see yet 

    edited because I accidentally hit post before I was done 
  • @b_1029 Giiiiiiiiirrrlll meeeee too! *Violently knocking on the SMEP-y Semptemy BMB to let me in* So happy for all of our TB friends Awesome about your brunch! 

    @littleredm I'm still just so sorry you lost your dad and are having to deal with it as the holidays approach. It's like a double whammy. Sending love and peace to you my friend. I hope your brother gets the helps he needs. Its good to surround yourself with friends and family who know and loved your dad. 

    @kbrown2385 Enjoy your time with your brother!! 

    @stephanie123456 Have I told you how much I love your s/n? It's SO easy to tag you in!! haha. That's awesome that you have such a predictable O! I wish I did! Isn't it crazy what we can learn about our bodies when we start tracking things?

    @kimmer1412 Sorry to see you back over here :( But yay for the kayak rack! And my DH doesn't know it yet, but there's a giant bag here waiting for him to take to Goodwill too :)

    R/R: No rant today! Just running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to get things ready for the next few days of celebrations! 

    Also, loving how much we're celebrating grads lately! 

    CS/Q: Meh. Have I said already how boring the WTO phase is?

    R/R: was hoping to leave late morning for my parents to celebrate Christmas but didn't wake up and out of bed until 9!! I still had things to wrap and all the dishes to wash! Finally got out of the house shortly after 2. No big deal, my brother's flight wasn't going to land until around 4 so we weren't late by any means.

    CS/Q: didn't bring my thermometer or OPKs withe to my parents but whatevs, I'd just be doing it for extra.

  • @b_1029 mine is tomorrow (the 23rd). Glad your brunch went well! 

    @kimmer1412 you’ve had a busy day!! 

    @littleredm I hope your brother gets the help he needs. I’m glad you are able to spend some time with your dads friends. I’m sure it will help to reminisce with them. Sending you lots of love for the holidays. 

    @inthewoods23 it might actually be relaxing to not have to temp. Enjoy your weekend with your family. 
  • Good morning, ladies.  Hope it's OK for me to jump back in over here, even though I'm not 100% sure where I belong at the moment.  I've missed you all, too. <3 

    @kbrown2385 happy birthday! I hope no one wraps your gift in Christmas paper or gives you a birthday/Christmas combo gift.  ;) 
    @littleredm I am so very, very sorry about your dad.  So much love to you and your family during this time.  I hope you'll be able to find some peace and comfort in your memories of him.
    @inthewoods23 have a great time with your family!
    @nomangos23 I hope things calm down for you and that you can relax a bit!  I used to host Christmas Day and I totally get the craziness.  
    @b_1029 I hope that your brunch was yummy! Happy early birthday, too. 
    @kimmer1412 I am exhausted reading about your super-productive day yesterday. Whoa.
    @stephanie123456 yay for O!  That is kind of funny that it's been the exact same day for a few cycles.  There's something comforting about predictability, though. 

    Month/Cycle: 6/6 (not sure if benched is the correct term, but we were advised to wait a cycle)

    CD: 6

    WAYDTGKU: prenatal vitamins, Fertility Friend, temping, red raspberry leaf tea, HIO, SMEP, OPKs
     
    R/R: My neighbor's rooster is a jerk.  Someone tell him it's Christmas vacation. Or at least the weekend. Yesterday was my birthday and it was a nicer day that I had anticipated. DH was extra sweet, and it was nice to get out of the house to go somewhere other than work.  

    CS/Q: Nope. Will start temping again in a few days.  
  • @emeraldduchess I am so sorry to see you back here, friend  ❤️ I’m glad you had a good birthday and YH was so sweet!

  • @emeraldduchess Happy belated birthday to you! I’m sorry to see you back here, but glad you were able to enjoy your day yesterday. If I had to deal with a rooster next door, it might go missing.

  • @emeraldduchess So sad to see you back here. But, happy belated birthday and I'm glad you have a sweet hubby 💜
  • @emeraldduchess So sad to see you back here!

  • Thank you, ladies.  💚💚💚 
  • @kbrown2385 Happy birthday today! @emeraldduchess Happy birthday yesterday! Hope you got to celebrate outside of Christmas festivities.

    @littleredm I'm very sorry for your loss of your dad; I hope you all find comfort in celebrating together at the same that you may be grieving. It is a delicate balance... I just read this beautiful note that is making the rounds on the internet for its thoughtful take on mourning our loved ones.  I hope it can help you and your family through this time and the times to come. https://www.thepoke.co.uk/2018/11/27/nick-cave-open-letter/

    @b_1029 @nomangos23 That grad thread gave me so much joy & hope!!! Can we all just get in there asap?!
