  • Haha @ratspj H and I talk about squatty potty all the time. I'm really intrigued as well.

  • @RatsPJ No way! I want one too, I just haven't bit the bullet and ordered one!

    I'm not sure how I managed to talk H into it, but we are starting to watch Outlander tonight. I haven't read the books, and I know he'll just be rolling his eyes, but at least he's humoring me!

    I really want a squatty potty. Is that weird?
    Nope I want one too! I visited a friend who had one and I liked it. I just like never visit bed bath and beyond and it's not something I want enough to make a trip for.

  • Hey, looking for some NBR advice from you ladies. 

    My mom and I are going to NYC in a week for a quick 4 day trip. Just a nice getaway because I miss my mom and she is one of my favorite people and our lives are so busy we hardly get to see each other. So, suggestions on things to do, and think cheap. Fun cheaper places to eat, parks to see, coffee shops. We are not high maintenance, but want some unique things to do. I haven't been to NYC since high school, so I don't know much. Just know that we both LOVE the city!

  • IT'S WRESTLEMANIA WEEKEND EVERYBODY!!

    I'm so stoked because one of the best matches of the show will be the women's triple threat between Charlotte, Sasha Banks, and Becky Lynch.  The latest round of women's wrestlers have completely changed the way the "diva's division" is treated, to the point where they're planning on retiring the term "diva's division".



    It's been a slow burn over the past year since they've been introduced on the main roster, but these girls are hella talented in so many different ways and I can't wait to watch them kill it.  GAHHHH.

    I know it's not everybody's boat, but man can it be a blast to watch.

  • @linzrunz Well the first step was clearing out all the boxes of stuff and old clothes we had thrown in there when we moved in, lol, so hopefully you don't have to do that part.  Then I just put down a big rug we had in storage and brought in a TV and hooked up our apple TV to it to be able to play the youtube videos on it.  So, basically there is nothing in the room but a rug, yoga mat and the TV haha.  The more time consuming part was cleaning it out but I wanted it to be clear of clutter.  Thinking of adding some things to it but I like how clean it is, feels nice and relaxing for yoga!  The closet in the room is mirrored so that is helpful for fixing my terrible looking yoga poses lol.

  • @sparty18 haha I love it! We have a guest bedroom, but rarely have guests that use it. I'm thinking about making it my escape room and adding yoga stuff would be awesome. The doors of the closet are mirrors so that'd be perfect for checking how horrible my form is. The room is fairly clean... Except for the closet.

  • Happy weekend everyone! Anybody have any exciting plans? I know a few of us WTO ladies have baby showers tomorrow (what is it about baby showers in April? I have another one at the end of the month!).

    I had a crazy busy day today (work, then an hour drive to a friends where we finished shopping for a baby shower tomorrow, wrapped our ten million presents, and then helped make the favors for the shower before finally getting done at midnight!) but I just wanted to give a shoutout to my amazing DH. I'm staying at a friends tonight and I thought I forgot my BBT and I was upset (even though it's so early in my cycle) because I didn't want to miss a temp. Turns out DH saw it on the bedside table and put it in my bag before I left! DH is the real MVP today!

    @jenmlangtake2
    I'll introduce all four because I'm so hyped right now:
    • Charlotte - Ric Flair's daughter, current champion.  Super athletic, fantastic at being a cocky underhanded player (just like dear old dad).
    • Bayley - super nice, known for giving hugs.  Currently loved by basically everybody (but not part of Wrestlemania because she's still in the development company)
    • Sasha Banks, aka The Boss - One of the best talkers in the company and a vicious but technically gifted competitor.
    • Becky Lynch - The Lass Kicker, a submission specialist and current underdog in the match.  Has a vaguely steampunk theme.  Used to have a thing with puns, but I think they've dropped that.  Also used to do softcore erotic wrestling before joining WWE if you're so inclined to search that.

  • In reference to the squatty potty talk. I've never heard of it before this but I would totally suggest getting one!!! I have regular toilets in my house but in this part of the world, a squat toilet is 100% normal and can be found in quite a few public bathrooms. They are perfect if you're ever constipated. My work used to have one squat toilet and a regular one. I was super intimidated by them at first but sometimes you have no option and once I finally tried one, I've actually thought about installing one in my house. if you're on the fence, I recommend!

  • I'm enjoying some tea then will throw together an overnight bag and then go down to new haven to catch a train to nyc to hang with my bestie! I haven't seen her since her wedding in oct (she lives in philly) and can't wait to catch up. Downside: it's raining and also I can't take my bbt because I haven't told her we are trying. We are the only kid free ones left and I've done a 360 in the last six months. It's just one night and I'm 7 DPO so not huge.

    @mrsstuessyNew York is so big and there is so much to do - are you guys spending the night or just going up for the day? What are you guys into? We might wait in line for same day theatre tickets maybe the rain will make the lines shorter.

    @leksiL could you tell her that you are just keeping track of your cycle so you know when AF is expected (IF she even notices or asks)? I don't have experience with this, but some women seem to temp for information's sake, especially if they have super irregular cycles. You said it's not a big deal, so that's good, but I thought I'd put this out there in case you really wanted to take it and just didn't want to talk about TTC with her yet. ETA: Enjoy your time with her!!

     I wound up testing this morning with a cheapie. It was as white as an Irishmans's ass. I'm 9 DPO. Contemplating using an FRER later or tomorrow morning. I'm only 5 days before AF is due. I couldn't hold off. I was trying to stay strong. Oh well. I fail. 

    Tonight is our outting. I'm gonna drink up some virgin orange crushes like no ones business! Going to make random conversations so no one suspects were in our TWW or possibly pg. 

    I really should do laundry but it's in the basement level and our bedrooms are on the upper level (townhouse). Such a PITA lugging it 3 levels. Can't wait to move and have laundry on the main level.

  • @lcsrva - You are right. I haven't heard from Bailey in a while, too! I hope she is okay! 

    Have a safe flight!
  • @Sparty18 Ah! That sounds wonderful.  I have a room like that too.. it is full of things we didn't know what to do with when we moved in...in uh 2014..   Maybe this will be my project today.. I have wanted to do it for so long, but every time I try my allergies spike up because.. well 2014 dust particles probably. Id love it to be a craft/girlrelax room.

  • @mrsstuessy I recommend John's Pizzeria on 260 W 44th (Times Square). It is an old church turned pizzeria with the best pizza ever. Even my friend who lives in Manhattan (grew up in Queens) is obsessed with this pizza. I also recommend Smorgasburg in Brooklyn on Saturdays. This should be on everyone's bucketlist- gorgeous Manhattan skyline in the background of a farmer's market-type thing but instead of farmer's, the booths are all these amazing NY restaurants and chefs so you can try things from all of them! Oh and no admission fee.

    @sparty18 I'm going to give Yoga with Adriene a try today! I suck at yoga but we'll see. I need to find my yoga mat.

  • @PennStateCait Let me know what you think!  I suck too...
  • My H woke me up WAY too early this morning to say goodbye before leaving for work. I think it is super sweet that he always says goodbye, love you and blah blah blah but in the moment I get so mad that he doesn't leave until I respond back. He knows I am not a morning person and thinks it is funny when I get mad..


    Also, I am now googling where I can get a squatty potty and how I would justify this purchase to my H.

    There's no such thing as sucking at yoga - we all start somewhere!  Adriene is really great for beginners because she emphasizes that usually at least once a video.  Remember - you're not trying to match her pose, your trying to match her intention.  If she does a downward dog (hands and feet on the ground, booty in the air), don't fret if you're on your tippy toes and your knees are bent and you have to take a break because your abs are on fire.  Even just trying towards the position is better than not doing anything at all.  It's called yoga practice for a reason :)

  • I finally downloaded the Glow app. I've seen things I can never unsee...

    @PepperAT My husband does the same thing every morning at 5am. Now I just grumble a 'love you' and give half-hearted pat on the back. I just can't do mornings.
