Re: FABULOUS FRIDAY!!!!!

  • Bull crap to the first day if spring. We are getting more snow today!!!!!

    I will probably be drinking again this weekend.
    Ttc is not going well for me. First off my husband is having trouble keeping an erection and doesn't want to take his cialis. And because he can't keep an erection he doesn't even want to have sex. Ah hello, I can't get pregnant if I don't have sex!!!!!
    Second, I'm having trouble with my opk's. I drink a to now water during the day so my pee is always light or clear. So this is the second cycle I havnt picked up a surge. I can feel the side that I'm ovulating from but can't pick up the surge on the stupid sticks!!!!

    Grrrrr just frustrated so Jameson or Johnnie will be my friend this weekend.

    Oh and no weekend plans for me.

    Getting snowed on here as well, which makes me want to hibernate this weekend. Big St. Patrick's day party at friends' house tomorrow. We'll be late because my husband got mandatory overtime but everyone will be drunk so no one will notice what time we roll in. Was thinking about driving out to the shooting range on Sunday but if it isn't going to be quite warm enough for comfort I will probably put that off until next week. The only other very exciting plan in my weekend future is a Costco run. Woot - food in bulk - woot woot!

    @hooligans4 - my husband and I have also been rendering all the charting and tempting and opking and RE advice moot lately. I agree that it is incredibly frustrating to do all the work loading the blunderbuss and identifying the target and then not pull the trigger. I say have that drink or three, lady, and may it cheer you.

  • @hooligans4 I'm sorry things aren't going well right now. I tell you timed intercourse is just the worst thing (or it was for us) there is just so much pressure! Enjoy your weekend lady and your drinks!

    We have a friends birthday party of Saturday, I'm thinking of taking a bottle of prosecco for that but then leaving early so we can go have dinner just the two of us. Other than that it's March Madness so it's college basketball all the time for us! Go Devils!

  • Won't be drinking this week as I think I just entered the TWW.  Not temping/charting this month has taken stress off of H and he has been more interested in sex so that's good.

    We will be finishing up the move this weekend so yay!  Spending the first night in our new house tomorrow.  Still have to go back and clean the old house but it will be nice to be in a bigger space.

  • Happy Friday ladies,
    This week has been a long one!
    Not sure if I'll be drinking much this weekend, but if I do, it will be while watching March Madness!!! I don't really have a team, I just loooove the tourney.  It's my favorite time of the year! I run a small pool, but my bracket is already ruined. So upsetting.
    So I'll mostly be doing that this weekend, plus making a dress for my friend's shower next weekend (oh it's in Brooklyn btw, I think I was asked that last week). I have a bunch of work to do too, but we'll see if that happens.

    We are getting spring here, so very sorry to those of you still under snow. For those of you that can't see the flowers, check out the google doodle. It's pretty.

    OldNellhooligans4 I am so with you on the timed intercourse thing. It seriously sucks.

  • Woot woot March Madness! Sparty on!

    You ladies better not send the snow this way! None in the forecast right now.

    No big plans again. Getting the cats to the vet. It's a job!
  • I'm letting myself drink coffee this week since af arrived. I'm hoping it won't screw anything up just to have it until af is gone. Truthfully I don't feel very hopeful right now anyway so I may as well at least have this one thing.

    We are UK fans. I kinda married into it, my family (dad) are IU fans. I wasn't raised watching sports, my mom could care less (divorced parents) so I don't get super crazy about it but I watch the big games with my h.
    Me:41, DH:41 Positive for MTHFR mutations- one copy C677T, one copy A1298C. One daughter born on Thanksgiving in 2013. Six losses.
  • Happy friday and spring everyone! 

    It has been a long week for me -- in a very busy. productive good way, but still exhausting so looking forward to a little time to relax this weekend. I leave wednesday for my 'ivf trip' so will be getting both work and home stuff done. Feeling a bit stressed with everything to do, but i am sure it will somehow all get done in time.  

    @Dwmmwd - i loved todays google doodle! 

    @hooligans4 sorry ttc isn't going well for you right now. I hope things turn around soon. A drink (or more) this weekend sounds well deserved.

  • Happy Friday ladies.....Ive already been drinking all week!!! Hubby and I got to do the deed for the first time in 4 months! So yeah......i drank like 3 glasses of wine in prep for that.......i wanted to just love my hubby and not think about how fat I am.....lol. We had fun. lol. 

    Sadly though, the drinking will not continue. I have a charity event fashion show I am the photographer for on Saturday and Sunday is quiet but I have client consults and a newborn session on Monday. Top it all off with I am on call again for another birth. Mamma to be is dilated to 2 cm so she can go anytime. She literally just booked me after seeing the slide show video of the birth i photographed last month. We hope she doesn't go on Sat cause well...i could miss it, but she does not feel like its happening anytime soon. Looks like I am diving into the world of birth photography head first. The response to the video was ridiculous and I booked 5 more mammas all this week. I may be leaving weddings behind.

  • @hooligans.......oh Im fat alright!!! lol. 
    However the news from the dr that everything is all good with me may be just what i need to get back on track with my diet and not fall off the wagon.

    I want to be lighter if I manage a BFP again.....i think i had thought it was never gonna happen and therefore never felt fully motivated by it........I no longer feel like that. SO.....I'm obsessed. IF I were to manage a BFP I want to document it in photos ALL OF IT! I want to maternity photos, I want the birth photographed I want to be in the newborn photos. I know the photographers I would use and it would not be cheap!!!! I wouldn't want to spend thousands on photography and end up hating it all cause i hate how i look.  so there it is....motivation! lol. 

    I hope everyone is having a great weekend!
