Re: TWW Friday 1/15
Month/Cycle: 13/1 AL #2
CD/DPO: 20/3
Timing: -1,-2,-3
Typical LP length: 13 days
Testing: Only if I’m late. This is my emotional self defense this month.
R/R: We bought some rural property recently with the intention of making it a camping site. One of the main considerations currently is the lack of a bathroom, and we are considering a sort of tiny house for a bathroom with loft sleeping space and small kitchen. Now I’m excited to peruse tiny home inspiration. I don’t want to work today!
CS/Q: The temps themselves are very messy, but FF gave me CH on the day I think I ovulated, so I guess I’ll take it.
@fitzfizz definitely feeling your strategy this month!
