Re: Fabulous Friday

  • I will be getting a massage Saturday afternoon and hang out with friends Saturday night.  Depending on my LH surge I could have IUI on Sunday 
  • Loading the player...
  • Klake, I only use natural products and to really disinfect the bathroom I clean it a mix of hydrogen peroxide, vinegar and baking soda. It basically kills everything but the tiles. I buy food grade h2o2 and dilute it down to a 3.5% solution, so that the bottle of 35% lasts forever. You should try it!

  • Oh, plans for the week end. I'm having lunch with a friend tomorrow, then work in the afternoon. On Sunday hubby and I are going to class together and perhaps will take a relaxing walk afterwards, if the weather is nice.

  • I love a nice clean bathroom too! I usually use mostly natural stuff but like to give it a good blast from time to time with a low dose of chemicals.

    I'm going to be rehearsing tomorrow for a Halloween show we're putting together. And then a dear friend's going away party. She's moving to France to be with her boyfriend. I'm sad to see her go since she's one of my real-time friends who I can share my TTC woes with (in addition to all you wonderful virtual friends :-)

    I'm inspired now to fit in some cleaning too...

    We went to the hometown football game last night. That was fun.

    I need to clean something, but I must do dishes and laundry.
  • I'm on call this weekend for 48 hours. Pretty much keeps me pinned in the house all weekend. Have to be within 30 minute response time from hospital :(( So i'll just get in a couple workouts and work on painting our house. Only 1 side to go and it'll be done!!!

    Enjoy the weekend everyone! :-h

  • Not much on the calendar here. Today just taking it slow and then planning on a 3-hour grading session at some point when DH is available to hang with LO. Tomorrow, church and then a trip to a nearby town that has lots of apple orchards and stuff. Should be fun. I'm sure there will also be football. ;)
