    I have wanted new floors installed since before we even started TTC. We have berber carpet and builder-grade tile at the moment and I would just love hardwood, or even high quality laminate. I have always loved our house except for the floors, and we had planned to install new floors shortly before we learned of our IF. Then IF happened. Now the ugly (and damaged in some places) carpets in our house always remind me of one of the many sacrifices we've had to make financially in order to even have a chance at having a baby. I feel like the day I put in new floors in my house I will have defeated IF just a teeny tiny bit.

    So this weekend we decided to "window-shop" flooring. I know we probably can't financially make it happen, but I want to say EFF YOU IF so bad and just do it. Who knows...maybe I'll find a good deal and we can swing it. In the meantime, I'm just going to daydream about them this weekend. :)

    I was suppose to work until 5pm, but I was told I could leave at 4...yay!!!  No plans tonight, just normal evening stuff.

    Tomorrow - Dh has a side job to work on in a city that is an hour away, I'm going with him along with our FD.  I'll drop him off and then take FD to a HUGE indoor interactive playground (museum of play).  Her and I will be there for HOURS, it's that big, then when everyone is all done we'll all meet up and take FD out to dinner.
