Re: TWW Saturday 9/9
Month/Cycle: 5/4
CD/DPO: 24/5
Timing: good

Typical LP Length: 10-12 days
Rant/Rave: Rave: we are going to the parade of homes in town to get a better idea of what we like and don't like in houses. Rant: I'm starting to cough and get a sore throat from all the smoke from the fires.
CS/Q: Not temping.
GTKY: If you are in a bad mood or feeling down, do you like to be left alone or to have someone cheer you up? What are some things that usually make you feel better? I like to be left alone when I'm in a bad mood. And I usually do some retail therapy or go buy a fancy coffee to make me feel better.
@ChloandCoco The parade of homes sounds like fun. Are you in the market for a new home? (I love watching hgtv shows to get home ideas!)
Month/Cycle: 5/5
CD/DPO: 21/4
Timing: none (benched)

Typical LP Length: 13

GTKY: If you are in a bad mood or feeling down, do you like to be left alone or to have someone cheer you up? What are some things that usually make you feel better?
If I am feeling extremely emotional, I like to have a good cry by myself. However, I love people too so being cheered up by a friend is always nice. Things that make me feel better include going for a run, crafting, baking, or spending time with people I love. (I also agree with @ChloandCoco that sometimes a little shopping lifts my spirits too).
CD/DPO: 22/5 or 9
Timing: lots
Testing: not yet because I'm unclear on ov day...
Typical LP Length: 10-13
Rant/Rave: I finally have a hot minute for the bump! Missed y'all
School is great, and my students are great!
CS/Q:
GTKY: If you are in a bad mood or feeling down, do you like to be left alone or to have someone cheer you up? What are some things that usually make you feel better?
left alone in a fortress of solitude and folk music.
@ChloandCoco have fun at the parade of homes! Is there a reason you chose not to temp? It provides great insight.
@paleoprincess I don't temp because I wake up several times a night. TW* I used to temp when I was trying to get pregnant with my DD * End TW. I always get a very positive OPK each cycle, so it's easy to pinpoint when I ovulate (give or take a couple of days).
CD/DPO: 21/9
Timing: -2,-1,O
Testing: Nope
Typical LP Length: 14 days
Rant/Rave: It's the weekend! I got up and hit the gym, walked the dog and just sat down to breakfast. It's nice and sunny out there, so I may try and get some sun while I can and read my book. Things are looking a little better hurricane-wise for my family, but still worried and all holding our breath until it passes.
Tonight I am going to dinner and a movie with a couple of the wives that are also deployed. One has an anniversary next week and her poor husband is going to miss it second year in a row.
GTKY: If you are in a bad mood or feeling down, do you like to be left alone or to have someone cheer you up? What are some things that usually make you feel better? Retail therapy, the gym, treats. Depends on the level of stress.
@dukestar5 what kind of muffins did you make?
@paleoprincess We missed you girl. Glad to see you back. Glad to hear that school is going well so far.
Month/Cycle: 5/5 after a couple losses/bench time (16 months total)
CD/DPO: 15/3... but actually 2
Timing: -3,-1,O
Testing: no idea
Typical LP Length: 14ish
Rant/Rave: ff gave me lines today... but based on timing of OPKS, my usual pattern of OPKs and past cycles, I'm only 2dpo. Depending on my temp tomorrow, ff will probably change it (already tested it)

GTKY: If you are in a bad mood or feeling down, do you like to be left alone or to have someone cheer you up? What are some things that usually make you feel better?
usually left alone. But if DH quietly passes me a bunch of icecream.. while I'm being left alone, even better.

Testing: nope
Typical LP Length: 14-16 days
Rant/Rave: Nice lazy start to toasty. Going to eventually have to be productive, but I'm enjoying right now.
CS/Q: not temping, opk
GTKY: If you are in a bad mood or feeling down, do you like to be left alone or to have someone cheer you up? What are some things that usually make you feel better?
Usually left alone, but obviously there are the random times I'll need someone. Listening to music always makes me better, or reading and getting away mentally from whatever is messing with me.
@ChloandCoco The haze is getting us here too. H actually got a bad sinus infection that he's dealing with because of it. Take care of yourself and hopefully it won't knock you down.
@paleoprincess I love your fortress of solitude!
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: CD 14/ 1 DPO
Timing: -2, -1, 0, +1
Testing: Not yet. Going to try my hardest to wait it out.
Typical LP Length: 26-27 days
Rant/Rave: This is the first day DH and I have off together in nearly 2 months and he decided it would be a great day to help my brother. Meh, whatever at least I am getting a lot of laundry done.
CS/Q:
GTKY: If you are in a bad mood or feeling down, do you like to be left alone or to have someone cheer you up? What are some things that usually make you feel better?
I usually do best if I am left alone. Take a nap, read and diffuse some essential oils.
@dukestar5 Muffins sound good! I was thinking of making some today too. Baking is definitely a good way to cheer up, as long as I don't eat all of what I bake!
@paleoprincess Good to see you here! I'm glad school is going well for you. What grade do you teach?
@nitnat007 Fx for your family! I'm glad you get a chance to go out tonight. Sounds like that will be fun. What movie are you going to?
@catlady1215 Looking at your chart, it does seem like you're 2 dpo. Does ff adjust the O date if you add fake temps for the next couple of days?

Month/Cycle: 7/6
CD/DPO: 24/10
Timing: -3, -2, -1
Testing: Trying to hold out until Monday
Typical LP Length: 13 days
Rant/Rave: MH and I got a lot done this morning! We went to the gym and did a much needed costco trip. Turned out to be very pricey, but we stocked up on a lot of things we really needed, so I don't feel too badly about the cost. The weather is gorgeous here today, and I'm hoping to get more work done around the house, and take today off from school prep.
CS/Q: My temps post-O look lovely - mostly very nice and regular. I wish that meant something! Chart in spoiler.
GTKY: If you are in a bad mood or feeling down, do you like to be left alone or to have someone cheer you up? What are some things that usually make you feel better?
I don't necessarily want to be cheered up, but I like to have someone keep me company. Sometimes when I feel crappy I just want someone there to say, "it sucks that you feel crappy." My kitties make me feel better, as does MH. Being outside also helps.
CD/DPO: 19/5
Timing: -4,-2,-1,0
Testing: waiting til day period is due
Typical LP Length: 12
Rant/Rave: football!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!
CS/Q:
GTKY: If you are in a bad mood or feeling down, do you like to be left alone or to have someone cheer you up? What are some things that usually make you feel better
in theory I want someone to make me feel better but it also can irritate me so it depends on whats wrong really.
Then the next AM, I got the jump and neg tests. So I think I O'd while sleeping thurs night. So even O day HIO session was technically before actual O.

@livelaughlovern Welcome! LP is your luteal phase, meaning the amount of days from ovulation until AF starts. It's usually anywhere from 10-14 days but can vary. With the number you put, I thought perhaps you thought it was overall cycle length. Also, please introduce yourself on the newbie thread so that everyone on TTGP can meet you.

@ChloandCoco That is exciting! When was the house built? We live in an older home. It is made so well and we have slowly been updating it.
@nitnat007 & @ChloandCoco Blueberry/walnut muffins. They were perfect with coffee!
@nitnat007 Sounds like you had a very productive day! I hope the girls' night was a blast. Do you know the other ladies well?
@catlady1215 Oh man--I am a sucker for ice cream too.
@Mylitta Glad you could enjoy a relaxing start to your morning.
@livelaughlovern Welcome! Did you end up getting to do anything fun with YH this evening (after he finished helping your brother)?
@darkstar42 Sounds like a very productive morning! What are your favorite things to buy at Costco? I need to make a trip there soon.
@thisnthat314 Are you more of a fan of professional or college football? Any favorite teams?
Also, those muffins sound amazing! Could you send me the recipe?
