Month/Cycle: 2/1

CD: 38!

WAYDTGKU: Right now, I'm waiting until CD 45 to take provera and jump-start a cycle. Then crossing my fingers and praying like hell that I ovulate.

And HIO, etc.

R/R/CS: I'm fine now that I've given up on this cycle.

GTKY: One thing I do too much of is consuming caffeine. I drink coffee (3 cups a day) and Diet Coke (2-3 a day), and it is starting to occur to me that I need to cut down for health and TTC purposes.

One thing I do too little of is drinking water ...I am working on it, though!

WAYDTGKU: tracking CM on FF

R/R/CS: Without keeping track of BBT or using OPKS, it's hard to tell, but I feel like I'm in the O. Mittelschmerz cramps and light spotting have continued. It's weird, because I honestly don't remember ever experiencing any of this before. The cramps suck but it's kind of cool to really be aware of the way my body changes in a cycle!

FF has today as my predicted O day, and I think I'll move on to TWW by Friday. Excited for my first TWW! @PennStateCait was very kind in assuring me it's possible to get KU by up to 4 days before O, but with my SO being sick and me not knowing when I O'd, I'm not really confident in our timing. I hope cycle 2 will work out better.

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?

I get too much sleep and too little exercise. Trying to reverse that lol.

WAYDTGKU: all things

R/R/CS: not much. Doing well with my goal (so far) of not stressing out as much (with ttc and life in general) I think exercising again has helped this

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?

we eat out way too much - I did give up places with drive thrus for lent and have not "cheated" yet. I am with you @cjt121413 in that I struggle to drink enough water. I need to do so but I also need to do it throughout the day and not try to get it all in at night which then causes me to be up every hour peeing. Must find a balance lol

***question at the bottom of my thread***

Month/Cycle: 5/5

WAYDTGKU: everything

R/R/CS: I had another beautiful rise this morning, hopefully heading over to the tww tomorrow.

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?
Definitely too much shopping
I don't go to the gym enough at the moment- that will change when I get my back sorted!

Question!! I'm coming to the US on Sunday!!! Will be in New York for work. If anyone can recommend must see places and more importantly - best shopping destinations please let me know!! I'm so excited!!!

WAYDTGKU: Temp, CM, CP, POAS OPK, Saliva OPK, extra folic acid, PNV gummies, Cal/Mag/Zinc, SAD lamp to increase FSH & LH, Guaifenesin. DH is taking multivitamin, folic acid & zinc. We plan to HIO 2-a-day in FW.

R/R/CS: This part of the cycle is about as interesting as watching paint dry.

GTKY: Thing I do too much of: procrastinating. Thing I do too little of: working out

cjt121413 · February 2016

@babymishI hope you have an awesome trip! I can't give much input on NYC, as I've only been there once, but I'm sure some ladies will chime in.

@Marley629 Places with drive-thrus is a great idea of something to give up for lent. I was trying to give up restaurants completely....and, um, I had Chipotle for dinner last night.

Too much of? Sweets! They're my weakness so that's why we try not to keep it in the house.

Marley629 · February 2016

@babymish - I would recommend the WTC memorial (it's a bit somber but powerful), Empire State Building, Lincoln Center & Rockefellar Center. Times Square is a must as well. There are good shopping places around all of those

and food too! Please please eat a bagel and a slice of NY pizza when you are here. There is nothing quite like either. Enjoy your trip!

WAYDTGKU: BBT, CM, OPKs, EPO, BD, Yoga

R/R/CS: WTF is up with all of these crazy "Am I knocked up?" threads lately?! I swear there were none for soooo long and then suddenly they are being posted like crazy! One even got closed before anyone had time to comment on it.

GTKY:
What is one thing you have or do too much of? I have way too many clothes. DH thinks I donate something every time I buy something new. It's a good idea--I just haven't committed to doing it yet!
What is one thing you have or do too little of? I don't read as much as I used to and really miss taking the time to read a good book!

Yep! It's a typical 10,000 lux lamp to treat Seasonal Affective Disorder. I do about an hour each morning before 9am from Oct-May.

sldp123 · February 2016

Good morning!

@cjt121413 Glad you are feeling better. I always feel better knowing we have a plan, even if it's not the plan that I originally wanted.

@writeress -4 is totally possible, I'm sure it was said that several posters last week had BFPs from only -4 timing. Fx for you, and if this isn't your month, sounds like you're ready to go for next month.

@Marley629 Good for you for sticking to your goal of giving up drive-thru places! We go out to eat way too often, too. I do try to make healthy choices (sometimes) but we also spend way too much money, so we are trying to cut back. That being said, Wednesday night is dinner date night because DS is with his dad, so....

@babymish I don't have any suggestions, but I wanted to say have fun in New York! I think there are a few posters who live there, so hopefully someone will chime in with some shopping suggestions.

@GhanimaAtreides I agree, the first week or so of WTO (or more if you have long cycles I guess) is so boring.

Month/Cycle: 8/8

CD: 18

WAYDTGKU: 99% sure I already O'd, so at this point just temping. This was my first cycle of Clomid + TI.

R/R/CS: I had a temp jump, and one more high temp tomorrow will give me CHs for Monday. I was hoping it would be yesterday so we would have -2 and -1 vs. -1 and O. But even if it was Monday, I had my u/s that morning and I hadn't O'd yet. Even if I did as soon as I left the office, we still HIO within 12 hours so I think it's fine. Side note, the girl behind me who is accidentally KTFU is talking to another coworker about her u/s yesterday and I'm just sitting here like

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of? I do too much eating and not enough exercising apparently, haha.

Megzb510 · February 2016

@babymish - I second Ny pizza and bagels. They have tons of places all over to get a manicure under $10. Getting tea at the Plaza is super fun.

Month/Cycle: 7/5

CD: 26

WAYDTGKU: pnv bbt cm preseed OPKs for days

R/R/CS: I am hopeful that I O'd yesterday. I had a small rise today and 2 more high temps puts CH for yesterday. I had really good timing (best I've ever had) so if I get CH for CD 25, I will be the most hopeful person ever going into the TWW.

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of? We definitely eat out too much. Now that DH works afternoons I've scaled back on that a lot. I also need to get back in the gym!

beary67 · February 2016

@cjt121413 I used to drink sooo much Diet Coke but finally gave it up starting January 1st. It was sooo difficult at first with the headaches, but it's now all completely out of my system and I think I have more energy now! One thing I did to help transition from Diet Coke to water was drink flavored sparkling waters. They are calorie free but the carbonation made it kind of feel like pop so I think it may have helped a bit too! Now, I LOVE drinking water and find myself craving it.

@writeress I was on BC for so long that I have no memory of what my cycles were like prior to taking the pill. It's so weird now having cramps, etc. As much as I hate the cramps, I do like feeling like my body is doing what it's supposed to do!

@Marley629 I like your idea of giving up fast food for lent. We have been good about not visiting too many fast food restaurants lately, but I have a hard time with eating too much candy (and sweets in general), so I gave that up for lent. I have been doing well so far!

@babymish we will miss you when you move to the TWW! I have only been to NYC a few times, and can't remember the restaurants we went to, so I'm not much help, but I am hoping others will be able to provide you with some awesome recommendations!

@GhanimaAtreides your 'paint dry' comment made me LOL

Month/Cycle: 6/4
CD: 55
WAYDTGKU: *I'm pretty sure I O'd on CD31 (positive OPK on CD 30, very crampy CD 31), but who knows at this point. Way past the TWW, with two BFN. Temping (recently), OPK's (stopped after I O'd this month, if I did).

R/R/CS: UGH
GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of? I stress/obsess too much. I stopped exercising after losing 30lbs for my wedding, that was a dumb idea, need to get back on the horse.

@babymish - I wanted to say that I live very close to the city! I wish I had good suggestions, but I seriously hate it lol. Too crowded, gets my anxiety all cray. BUT, the Forever 21 in the heart of the city is sweetttttt. And I can definitely third the pizza. You won't find better anywhere!

Month/Cycle: 13/14

CD: 6

WAYDTGKU: BBT, BD ED/EOD

R/R/CS: I just learned about the effects of ibuprofen yesterday when trying to get KTFU. I'm on cycle 14!!! I have chronic backaches and headaches due to an injury when I was in high school and I pop ibuprofen like it's going out of style! 13 cycles and maybe if I wasn't an idiot I could already be KTFU. Now I realize this probably isn't the only reason, just frustrated about how it's even possible I didn't know about it!

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?
I spend WAAAAAY too much time on my phone, and I'm trying to cut back.
Hubby and I don't "date" enough. We have a super great relationship. I just wish we had time for more quality time.

DiFazette · February 2016

WAYDTGKU: sp being way too much time think about doing OPKs this cycle. I keep saying I'll wait and spending way too much time thinking about it.

R/R/CS: I'm losing some inches! Always nice to see the work pay off!

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?

I'm going personal here instead of things - I get frustrated too often because I have very little patience. I thought I'd become more patient being a parent... At the end of the day I don't want to 'do' for anyone after being so needed all day with a 2 year old. Sometimes I feel bad for my H because I used to dote on him.

houseofsetters · February 2016

Month/Cycle: 5/3

CD: 30

WAYDTGKU: The usual.

R/R/CS: 99% sure I O'd on CD28. Waiting for one more temp for CH. or not, since my temps are crazytown. And I turn 30 tomorrow. Feeling weird about that! Would be nice to move to TWW on my birthday!!

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?
I spend too much time reading! Like, I ignore all the stuff I need to do and just read. It's bad.
I don't spend enough time exercising. I was just sitting here thinking about how I need to work out after work today. It may or may not actually happen...I might read instead.

JayJay1212 · February 2016

Month/Cycle: 7/6

CD: 19

WAYDTGKU: temping, cm, opks

R/R/CS: So I've been over in TWW with solid CH, even though something felt wrong about my temps. Well, I guess I'm back here now because FF took my CH away.

. With those CH I had my first "high" timing. Now I'm pretty sure this will be another anovulatory cycle. I'm so sad. I just had an anovulatory cycle from Nov 3-January 2. They take me out of the game for way way too long, and one anovulatory was one thing, two so close together makes me think there may be a problem. And also, for the next two months H is going to be on a surgery rotation that will have him gone for an ungodly amount of hours, so I feel like if this one is anovulatory, I will be out for several months.

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?
Too much eating, too little exercising.

mokay19 · February 2016

@Marley629 I drink most my water between 6am and 5pm, then after that I only have about a cup or two with dinner to avoid getting up every hour during the night to pee. I've always heard that it is important to drink a glass of water in the morning before anything else so I make sure to do that and I think it helps get my system going for the day.

@babymish I have never been to NYC, but enjoy your trip!

@beary67 I agree about the crazy posts! I stopped opening them because I noticed myself getting too frustrated with them

Month/Cycle: 6/3

CD: 12

WAYDTGKU: Metformin, PNV, temping

R/R/CS: Nothing really today.... I keep telling myself to stop getting so hopeful that something different will happen because I don't want to be upset if I don't ovulate.....again.

GTKY: I definitely go out to eat too much. I need to work out more. With my husband gone, I just don't do it as much because I use him as my personal coach haha

WAYDTGKU: nothing at the moment

R/R/CS: after two days of spotting AF has officially arrived. Had a rough day yesterday (thank you to everyone over in the TWW for putting up with me

)

feeling better about bout this cycle. I think we will just take it easy. I will temp because that doesn't stress me out and I like to have an idea of what is going on and track CM because, well, how can you not. But no Adv OPKs or wondfos. I solemnly swear not to pee in anything. We will likely be closer to NTNP than true TTC but that is ok. With the wedding I am in next year I figure a good compromise is just to take it easy this month. If we get lucky and have good timing, then great. If not... Then the break will be nice and we will be on to month 8.

I am also looking forward to my pap follow up tomorrow so that I can start asking some questions about things that sort of bother me (spotting, super light periods, shortish LP).

On on the non-TTC side of the house, I am really going to try to start getting myself in better shape this month. I am down 1.5 pounds from last Wednesday (I only check on Wednesday) so that is good.

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?

too much: eating junk food between meals

too little: exercise

Neikoda · February 2016

cjt121413 FX for your next cycle. Also, I completely understand the caffeine thing. I switched to a lot of fruit juices. Simply makes some awesome natural fruit juices plus I use it for popsicles for a healthy treat.

writeress Sorry if BBT is giving you some trouble this cycle. If you have any questions on tracking for next cycle, feel free to ask. Also, check CM and CP around now to get an idea if you're Oing.

Marley629 Nice job with not stressing. For water intake, I got the half gallon water jug from Walmart and fill it at the beginning of the day. You can mark where you need to be intake wise at certain times and keep track of it that way. But you will need to pee constantly. Unfortunately it is just part of it.

babymish That rise in your charts looks perfect. Enjoy visiting NY and the TWW.

GhanimaAtreides Hooray for the boring part of the cycle. I'm right there with you.

beary67. It is making me crazy!

sldp123 FX for your O date. And good luck drowning out your co-worker. I feel you on that one. My KU SIL is the topic of every family gathering. It makes me crazy.

Megzb510 FX for continued rising temps and good timing.

Month/Cycle: 1/1 TTCAL

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU: BBT, CM, CP, OPKs, BD, Prenatal, Aspirin

R/R/CS: I had to start over with FF this cycle since it was all messed up with me not charting for a few months. Now I think it has my estimated fertility week too early as it gave me an LP longer than 11 days. Guess we'll just have to cover our bases with some extra BDing. Don't think DH will be too upset.

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of? I watch way too much TV at night when I'm just trying to unwind. I really should be productive but the couch next to DH is just so comfy. Also, I have too much cleaning to do and don't do nearly enough. Between a dog, a cat, a gecko, and 3 large fish in a 55 gallon tank, I spend most of my time keeping up with their cleaning but I still have a lot of general house stuff that needs to get done after work.

R/R/CS: patiently waiting for O... I think it was a little early last month so I'm frantically thinking I missed it.. But I'm hoping within the next few days I'll get there

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?

ugh.. So many things... I shop too much. I love it. I had a very hard upbringing and it's so nice to be able to buy things I want. But sometimes I spend too much..
I drink too much coffee. Not an extravagant amount but at least 2 cups a day. That's a lot when your TTC and might one day be KU so I don't know what to do about that..
and.. I eat out way too often. When looking FW gets too busy or I'm stressed we eat fast food all the time. I need to cut back and save some money! And my waist line..
Too little.. Exercise. I did so well for so long. But I got married and started a new job and I just don't even try anymore.

Lecool · February 2016

@babymish Yay have fun in NYC! I don't have any specific recommendations, but I do suggest that you eat ALL the food. I went to NY about ten years ago and just remember I ate so much good food.

@jmr1515 FX for good test results!

@beary67 All those posts yesterday were exhausting. I don't get the "should I test?" posts. Obviously, you think you should, or else you wouldn't be posting on a forum asking about it. I do not get it.

@sldp123 & @Megzb510 & @houseofsettersFX for CH soon for you all.

@DiFazette Good job on the inches lost!

@JamieMichelle12 I'm sorry about your crosshairs! That's very frustrating. FX for O for you soon.

@furbabymom2007 Sorry about CD1. I hope you get some answers at your appointment. And good job on the weight loss!

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?

Too much: Internetting. I use the internet for work, I come home and use the internet, I use the internet on my phone when I go to bed. Way too much internet.

Too little: Reading. I've always been a big reader, but I haven't been making time to sit down and just read lately. I listen to audiobooks in the car during my work commute, which kind of counts, but not really.

Month/Cycle: 9/9

WAYDTGKU: PNV, BD, green tea, no alcohol

R/R/CS: I ran out of my gummy PNVs so I've been taking the Target brand pills for the past few days. I've been feeling SO nauseous. Put two and two together. The reason I switched to gummies 8 months ago was that the Target ones were making me feel sick. Doh! I should have remembered. Off to get more gummies today...

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?

I'm on Facebook WAY too much and I wish I read more.

@babymish So many recommendations. Depends on how much time you have! Rockefeller Center, Empire State Building, WTC memorial, etc. are all must do's. But also, my favorite areas to explore are in Lower Manhattan (below 14th Street). The West Village is my absolute fave -- cobblestone streets, cute restaurants and great, tiny boutiques. Soho is also great for shopping, with tons of boutiques on the side streets and the big stores on Broadway, although what you want might be different from what I want. I go there for the three story Topshop. In terms of food, get as many bagels, pieces of pizza (literally, any pizza shop you see is good), white and black cookies, and bowls of matzoh ball soup that you can.

Sparty18 · February 2016

*Lurking from TWW*
@cjt121413 & @beary67 I second the flavored sparkling waters to help ease the pain of dropping diet coke. In my case, I stopped drinking coke 2 weeks ago (and i always had at least 1 a day) and I now drink LaCroix waters and it has helped so much with still having the carbonation and the pop of the can top.

TrulyBlessed22 · February 2016

@babymish - how exciting for you! The city is a wonderful place to visit. Personally, I kind of agree @mrsdaddario about the craziness of it all but I like visiting there and then going home to the suburb's lol. Anyway, I second @marley629 suggestions and would add Bryant Park (though it's much nicer in the Spring/Summer) and 5th Avenue if you're in the mood to splurge. Also, if you like hot chocolate you should check out Serendipity 3 in the Upper East Side. Lastly, checking out a Broadway show is a must provided you have the time - they usually have deeply discounted tickets at a booth in Times Square for seats that weren't purchased and you can catch the show that same day. HAVE FUN!!!

Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD: 8

WAYDTGKU: BBT, CM, BD with Pre-Seed, PNV and DHA

R/R/CS: this month we are TTC but I'm not going into it with high hopes because the time will be off with DH going away BUT for some reason I keep having a good feeling and I think it's mostly in part to the fact that often times we hear stories like - well we stopped trying or weren't really trying that month and then we got KU! I guess the positive side of me is hoping for one of those stories <sigh>

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?

Hmmm, I do too much worrying, in general - about life and I need to stop because it's not healthy. Generally speaking I'm a positive/optimistic person but I tend to try to live my life on a trajectory and then feel bummed when it doesn't pan out. I need to get over it because in the end I always end up happy and that's all that should matter, not the timing.

As far as too little of - I'd say time for myself. I'm always running somewhere, drop of DD at daycare, work, errands during lunch, pick up DD, Dinner, bedtime. I know this is life when you have a child and I'm Blessed but it can get tiring and that's fine but I just need to find time for me. That's my issue though, not my families. DH is supportive but I need to be willing to tell myself "it's ok".

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?
I own way too many clothes. Our walk in closet in DH and my bedroom is just of my clothes. He has a closet across the house in the guest bedroom. So, when we start having kids, I am definitely going to have to downsize my wardrobe so he can fit all of his clothes into our shared closet. I have a problem with throwing away things, so I have clothes from high school that I never wear anymore. Like seriously, I am a clothes hoarder.

The thing I do too little of is exercise. I really want to get back into it, especially since my husband is so sporty and athletic.

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of? I worry a lot. We just had a friend find out her husband is very ill, it reminded me to be grateful for what we have.

R/R/CS: just that my endo pains are pretty bad and it makes it hard to feel ovulation sometimes.

WAYDTGKU: OPKs, trying to time around O, EPO and trying not to stress out

GTKY: I never have enough sleep! I should probably spend less time on the computer

@babymish: have fun in NYC! Just wandering around is an amazing experience. Central Park, lowertown, and Hell's Kitchen are worth a visit

WAYDTGKU: acupuncture tonight and IUI tomorrow!

R/R/CS: I have two lovely follicles growing right now! I was so happy to find out the Letrozole worked!

GTKY (stolen from TWW): too much - criticizing DH about his food intake/portions. too little - talking to my family. Since my sister and I started our side business together I talk to her a lot, but I should pick up the phone and call my mom and dad more often.

@babymish I can't remember if you are one of the knit/crochet aficionados but in case you are, Purl SoHo is ah-mazing and super cute even if you aren't into their craft supply. I haven't been but it's on my Mecca list. On a previous visit, a friend and I dove into Don't Tell Mama (cabaret/piano bar in the theater district). So good, so fun, a bit $$. The food in NY is insane...I would avoid the chain restaurants and opt for the independent stops. I'd also love to hear your shopping suggestions after you go! We have friends in Newport, RI and we'd love to visit them and make a trip to the city this year! I would imagine Sherri Hill has a store in NYC and I'd love to go just to try on dresses. Have a great time!

R/R/CS: One week down, I'm good today.

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of? Oh geez, I sleep way too much. I can function on little sleep but could live on 10-12 hours a night. I definitely keep in touch with my family far too little.

@babymish; i've never been but totes agree that you've gotta try NY style pizza (and CHICAGO STYLE if you ever get there- former Chicago girl here!) And NY Bagels, I've heard they are amazing! Have fun!

@jmr1515; FX for DH!

@beary67; totally agree on reading! I would love to get back into that or find a way to join some sort of book club

@bender29; FX for more date nights, we could all use a bit more of that, love date night with DH!

@Lecool; ditto on the internetting, love that term!

@sparty18; if you lurk again- what LaCroix flavour should I try? I'm thinking Grapefruit?!

WAYDTGKU: BBT, FF, PNVs, BD EOD, no booze- damn you whole30, lol!

R/R/CS: @beary67; AMEN GIRL- WTF is up with all the drive by's & should I test, am I KTFU posts lately? there were like 3-4 over the weekend I couldn't believe it!

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of? Too much phone/internet time, before I would say a little too much drinking (meaning 1 drink with dinner nightly) but with the whole30 we've stopped drinking so that's good, worrying sometimes or anxiety over little things like work stuff that doesn't REALLY matter.... Too little; totally on board with @cjt121413 & not drinking enough water- BUT IT'S SOOO HARD lol. I've always been one of those people that didn't like the way water tasted, YES it has a taste. I have been better over the last year or so with DH support & I KNOW I have to get better now bc when I finally am KTFU I will have to drink a ton - the battle continues lol.

@thefarmerswife0411 - re what lacroix flavor to try...I love the grapefruit! However, it occasionally gives me heartburn so just be aware that it is pretty acidic. My other favorite is the coconut. Good for you keeping on track with the Whole 30, that's awesome!

Sparty18 · February 2016

@thefarmerswife0411 Of course I'm lurking again.

Grapefruit was the first one I tried, but for some reason I kept feeling like I was drinking an alcoholic drink with that flavor, lol. It may have been that it was the first flavor I tried and I wasn't used to them yet, but since then I have tried cran-raspberry, peach pear, passionfruit and their pineapple strawberry curate (taller skinny cans). Passionfruit and the pineapple strawberry are definitely my faves so far!

I LOVE the grapefruit La Croix. (My H makes fun of me for how I say pamplemousse.). The cran-raspberry is good as well.

WAYDTGKU: Just waiting for AF to vacate

R/R/CS: Nothing to say, this time goes slow. My friend is about 15 weeks along and is coming to visit us this weekend! I can't wait to discuss all things TTC and see how she is feeling and her baby bump! I love talking about it all, but DH doesn't want to hear all the sordid details

That's what girlfriends are for right?

GTKY (stolen from TWW): What is one thing you have or do too much of? What is one thing you have or do too little of?

Too much: cell phone/social media use
Too little: clean my house/stay in touch with people
