    1. I went to our favourite ice cream place yesterday and got an ice cream.

    3. I think I'm going to treat myself to Subway for lunch.
    4. Two short weeks in a row!
    5. I'm wearing yoga pants under a long shirt today and I'm so comfy.
    6. Lots of adorable pet pictures over in WTO.
    7. I'm actually looking into goat by-laws in my city because of that thread.

    9. My dad's girlfriend is really ill but he hasn't told me yet, so we're going to offer to have them over for Easter so she doesn't have to cook. I can't cook to save my life and this will be our first time hosting a holiday meal so I'm excited to learn.
    10. H's birthday is in two days and I think I'm going to pintrest the heck out of a beer can cake and see what I can work out.

    1. Cute animals in the WTO thread, love it! 
    2. Now I kinda want a bulldog.
    3. I looked at my sensor graphs for my blood sugars during FW, and I'm convinced the one high spike out of range I had was because I ovulated right at that time,  not because I missed insulin or ate something too sugary. :)
    4. I just realized I had cravings last night - OMG SS.
    5. I'm going to work out again today.
    6. I will also shower. Doing my hair takes like 3 hours -.-
    7. Small group tonight! I'm so excited. Love those people.
    8. ...which means I cannot cook ranch pork chops/potatoes/green beans like I had planned..
    9. I'll  just cook it early and eat before small groups.
    10. ... I should get off TB and work out now so I can shower and be ready to cook dinner in time. 
    BONUS 11. I also have to make lots of phone calls regarding the HOA satellite dish fiasco and school loans - we called and paid off one school loan... and the money never disappeared from the bank account - what?

    1. I finished the huge backlog of dishes that needed to be washed last night (our dishwasher recently broke and now we're hand-washing them).
    2. Healthy chicken strips are a thing and I ate some last night.
    3.DH was actually bummed when I started AF and told me out loud that he really wanted me to be pregnant. :blush: 
    4. All my dogs cuddled me this morning for warmth. They're better than a warming blanket.
    5. I've rediscovered my love for apples.
    6. Smartfood Kettle Corn is a delicious snack.
    7. The bus was actually on time today so I got to work relatively quickly. 
    8. Fanfiction has me emotional today.
    9. Seeing @Sugargirl1019 's signature of little fuzzy bunnies perked up my morning with an "Aw" moment.
    10. I live in FL and it's cold in March. This is unheard of, but also a nice surprise.

    1. So happy that we found a new place. While I am disappointed the house we put an offer on was sold to another higher bidder, this apartment will be much better than our current place. It had a golf course and a fenced dog park!

     2. Can't wait to play golf with DH at our new home. It's his favorite sport since a knee injury made football impossible for him. 

    3. I am very proud of myself. I have made it a whole 30 days without peeing on things! 

    4. I got my garden plot all weeded and tilled. Although I will probably not get to use it this year since we are moving, it still feels good to have a pretty, freshly weeded flower garden in my front yard.

    5. DH built us a gorgeous new table from reclaimed wood. I love it so much! He has already had two people place orders for him to build them tables too.

    6. One week from today, DH and I will be relaxing and enjoying a romantic mini vacation at the Hobbit hole hotel.

    7. No food has sounded good for the last 3 days. Everything makes me nauseous. 

    8. Since the break-in, DH is taking me to the shooting range so I can get some practice in with the handgun he just bought me.

    9. It's finally sunny outside and not rainy and cold. 

    10. DH and I are starting a new workout routine Monday to hopefully get back into shape.

    1.  I can finally bend down and walk up stairs without feeling like I'm going to die!  Ok...exaggerating, but this is my first day of no soreness.  Yay!

    2.  THE SUN IS SHINING!!!  It's cold, but at least it's not raining or snowing.

    3.  I'm ready to sign up for another race!

    4.  I'm getting more girl scout cookies delivered today.  Thin mints totally make you thin....right?

    5.  6dpo and so far I haven't googled anything yet.  Go me!

    6.  DH is working on our old house today so we can get it on the market.  It's been a solid two months of work so far and there's still so much to do!  FX that when we do finally list it that someone buys it QUICK!

    7.  I got a ton of work done this morning which means I can catch up on TB.

    8.  I may have slacked at work a little yesterday and started lurking super old threads on here from a while ago.  It was entertaining.

    9.  My boss finally hooked up wifi in the office which means I won't be using any data on my phone when I'm at work!

    10.  Generally, I'm in a really good mood which is rare for me at this point in my cycle.  I will take it!

    1. This is my first time posting on this thread, and I think it's lovely. 
    2.  I just ate my favorite salami on chiabatta from my favorite Italian place for lunch. Yum!
    3.  I requested several single mid-week days off to go get busy with OH while he's working away from home during the week.  They're every two weeks to make being apart easier, and also to hit FW for the next three months.  Filthy hotel sex, FTW!
    4.  Most people have candy bowls on their desks.  Mine is filled with PNVs, folic acid, and EPO.  I know how to party!
    5.  I'm trying to use my solo weeknights to do productive things, like organize our closet.
    6.  I'm also attempting to get back on the low-carb wagon and work out more so that my body is more likely to want to conceive.
    7.  AF has vacated.  On to Cycle 4!!
    8.  I have a PCP appointment next week to monitor my blood pressure, which has been improving.  I'm planning to chat with my doc about TTC and hoping she is as supportive as my last doc. 
    9.  I'm also planning to mention my short LP to her.  It's 10 or 11 days, depending on the cycle, which isn't technically too short, but I still think she should know about it.
    10. I'm taking the day of my appointment off, and the following day is a holiday, and they're both within my predicted FW.

    1. We got a little sun here in Seattle, so I got to walk the lake and get some needed vitamin D. 
    2. I started tomatoes from seedlings last month and they are taking off! I cannot wait to have fresh tomatoes this summer. Normally I have a black thumb so this is beyond exciting for me. 
    3. I have been successful in drinking more water. (It has only been two days, but I have to start somewhere).
    4. I did not eat any junk food today, as much as I wanted to make pancakes and bacon this morning. 
    5. I killed a wasp in the house earlier, and broke the broom doing it. I am not even sure how it got in...? My DH is deathly afraid of them, so he would not have been able to sleep if I had not been successful in killing it. 
    6. I am going to start researching a vacation in the near future. I think DH and I need a break. 
    7. I bought very pretty flowers from Trader Joe's for 3.99. You just can't beat those prices. 
    8. I took a break from BBT this month and did not get a positive from my OPK or FM (I was sick so it is possible I did not O). The FM wanted me to continue, but I am letting go for this month. No more peeing on anything, I am taking a needed break and will start fresh next month.
    9. I made olive oil lemon cake with greek yogurt and it turned out great. I will indulge in that later this evening. I am considering it healthy since it has no butter. 
    10. Leftovers for dinner so no cooking or cleaning! Well, I actually like the cooking it is the cleaning part that I dislike.

    I just got home and I loved reading these after a long work day, so I wanna play!

    1. I actually got off work on time today! That rarely ever happens.
    2. They were having an after work baby shower today for a co-worker that is on her 3rd baby, I really didn't want to stay for that. My supervisor is the only one there that knows we have been trying for a little bit and could tell I wasn't feeling it and helped me get out of it.
    3. I came home to find out my DH had made dinner and dessert for tonight! Double win.
    4. We leave for vacation in 18 days and I cannot wait!
    5. I'm looking forward to Easter weekend. Looking forward to 3 days off and time with the family.
    6. It finally stopped snowing here and I am starting to believe there is actually a sun out there somewhere.  I am listening to the news, they are saying more snow is coming later this week. :(
    7. DH and I are having date night tomorrow and he is the one that suggested it. 
    8. The regular hockey season is almost over, I am so sick of hockey talk! DH is obsessed with hockey and his team will not be making the playoffs (oh damn) so I hopefully won't have to endure that for awhile.
    9. My dog was overly excited to see me when I got home and has not left my side since. Unconditional love right there.
    10. I'm in a really good mood today, TTC wise. If O'd when I think I did, I will know that we did everything we could this cycle.

    10. We may have decided on a cabin for our vacation. I just need to call and set it up:)
