So, between the Thanksgiving cooking, the Black Friday list-making, the food gorging, and the football-watching... I almost forgot that tonight is my trigger! I went to the fridge to get a drink, and there was my Ovidrel, staring at me.
While I'm really (really, really, really) glad that I didn't completely forget to trigger, I am grateful that I was so busy and having so much fun today that I was able to put all of the IF stuff out of my mind, at least for a little while.
And I'm also glad that DH is off until Monday, which means we don't have to juggle our TI around his really weird work schedule. During our first medicated cycle I had to set my alarm clock so I would be awake when he got home in the middle of the night... and last cycle I had to call in "sick" in order to be home while he was home. Here's hoping that the opportunity for some spontaneity will serve us well!
Re: Can't believe I almost forgot...

Haha.
Good luck, OP!

Ha! The relaxing was certainly good for my mental state, but if this cycle works it's because of the Metformin, the Femara, the Ovidrel, perfectly timed BD, and the grace of God.
Thanks for the good wishes, ladies!
