  • I'm in the second week of the TWW and just found out that even with progesterone supplements my P4 tanked. So now those have been doubled and estrace has been added in.

     

    So, when I'm not obsessing over that, I'm working from home as much as is humanely possible (I have a commute that's just brutal---SI to Queens, so if I can stay home I do). 

    While I work from home I stare at my apartment and wonder if it  would somehow be possible to get it to do a Beauty and the Beast number and clean itself magically. 

     Otherwise right now, waiting for the DH to get home from teaching in the Bronx and thinking about what to make for dinner.

  • My temp job ended last week. I slept in and took a nap. I also cleaned and had dinner ready and caught a dish towel on fire. It touched the burner and went up in flames. Fun times. It was small and I patted it out with my other towel. I also cleaned deck benches while DH grilled. He said the outdoor bleach didn't need to be added to water. So I scrubbed and scrubbed. And now my hands hurt:< The bottle clearly says 6 caps per gallon.

    Tuesday is my WTF. I don't want to go. I just want to be pregnant.
