    Happy weekend! Where is everyone today?😊 Hope you’re having a lovely Saturday. 

    Month/Cycle: 24–Geesus. 

    CD/DPO: 20/8

    Timing: -4, -3, -1, +1

    Typical LP length: 10-13

    Testing: BFN this morning, but it’s only 8DPO so whatevs

    R/R: I’ve had a very tough work issue that I’ve been vaguely posting about for a couple weeks. Yesterday someone stepped in to take on the situation on my behalf, and I have new hope that it will work out in my favor! 

    CS/Q: Temps are oddly low this cycle so not holding out too much hope. 

    GTKY: Wedding colors? Theme? We had invitations that set the tone for our tropical wedding. Colors were green, gold, and fuchsia. The theme was just the setting: tropical flowers, ocean as the backdrop. It was natural & beautiful.

  • Hahaha!😄 Thanks for keeping me company, Asha. It’s been so quiet on the weekends recently! And thank you for your kind words, the wedding really was lovely. 
  • @keikilove it's definitely quieter on the weekends overall. Probably because people take the weekends to get stuff done and relax before the next work week. I hope your work situation gets better soon, and from taking a closer look at your chart your temp rise is definitely still there. I think your pre-o temps were fluctuating a bit on the high side giving you a higher cover. I wouldn't be too worried about it!

  • @ashaislurking Yeah, that’s a good point about my coverline being higher. After reading your comment I went back & compared my charts. Sure enough, my temps are within my normal range, but my coverline is higher than usual. Thanks for the help! 
  • @keikilove glad to take a look and hopefully alleviate some worries!

    @inthewoods23 Thanks for joining us here too! Hopefully some other TWW-ers wil chime in today. 😊 

    I was thinking about our GTKYs where we’ve all shared our wedding dress photos & wedding rings on here. Maybe we can share non-identifying snippets of our wedding photos/themes/ the special little details, & those who aren’t married yet can post their Pinterest/planning ideas. What do you think? 
    ETA: Those who would do it differently if they had a do-over can post their actual colors/theme, as well as pics of how they’d plan for it if they could do it again. Maybe silly, but a way to pass the time. ..
