    @inthewoods23. squee!  Cinnamon rolls!  I've got two more batches of cookies cooling, and another two batches to try to finish baking off. (The sugar cookies need to cool completely so they can be iced.) Tomorrow my first plan of attack is the poppyseed loaf!  Which needs to rise twice as well. 😬 I've never made it before, so I'm excited.  I've never made scratch cinnamon rolls, either!  That sounds amazing!  Pitter patter ;) Enjoy a quiet Good Friday... 
  • @inthewoods23 oooh and they're GF?? Where did you find the recipe? I've never proved anything in my life (except in high school geometry πŸ€“), much less something GF πŸ˜‚


    Month/Cycle: 4/4

    CD: 3

    WAYDTGKU: bbt/cm

    R/R: DH says he finished taxes. We owe an absolute sh*t ton. 😫 I have no idea how. I'm going to double check he entered stuff right, but it's turbotax...hard to screw it up.πŸ₯΄

    CS/Q: nope.Β 
  • Back from spring break and happy to be on the board again!

    @inthewoods23 YUM!!!

    @pajamstagrams us too, every year. It sucks!!! Just need to start putting more toward taxes throughout the year... oh and have more kids apparently. Tax guy never fails to tell us that, thanks bud.Β 

    Month/Cycle: 5/5
    CD: 13
    WAYDTGKU: HIO, OPKsΒ 
    R/R: Rave: Spring break was amazing. Went to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg, TN. The crowds were insane, but it was nice to get out and hike! Dollywood was super cute. As a Disney parks lover, I have a total appreciation for the detailed theming.Β 
    CS/Q: None

  • @inthewoods23 oooh, cinnamon rolls sound awesome! Enjoy the tech break!
    @pajamstagrams ugh, boo taxes. We got a refund federal but owed a good chunk of it back to the state. I'm waiting for a refund to hit before I file the state ones.
    @misspricklepants glad you enjoyed your break!

    Month/Cycle: 6/5

    CD: 23

    WAYDTGKU: bbt, opks, cm, cinnamon supplements

    R/R: We need to work on more cleaning today, but I have a case of the I don't wannas. Also need to sew the apron I'm making my mom for her birthday. Bwah, I guess I'll have to get myself moving soon.

    CS/Q: temps have actually been nicely relatively even the last few days, which is slightly unusual for me. Going to start HIO probably today since I'm starting to see lines on OPKs now.




  • @inthewoods23 oooh yum! and gf/df baking is HARD! my sister is vegan and my mom is gf. makes for super fun family meals.Β 
    @BusinessWife jealous of all of your baking!
    @pajamstagrams yikes, always my fear. we are used to owing with owning a business/self employment but it's always a matter of how well did we estimate.Β 

    Month/Cycle: 5/5

    CD: 9

    WAYDTGKU: i remembered my OPK! woot, still struggling on the vitamin train

    R/R: holy cold front! we had outdoor dinner reservations that i think i'm cancelling. brrrrr between covid and being "old" i have no desire to suffer thru any kind of inclement weather for fun.Β 

    CS/Q:Β 

  • @inthewoods23 those cinnamon rolls sound delicious and I'm glad you're getting a tech break in too! sometimes we gotta disconnect.
    @pajamstagrams definitely double and triple check everything. we used turbo too and it didn't auto populate some things correctly so it kept saying we owed like, a LOT, but when we manually added the correct info, we ended up with a refund. fx for you there
    @misspricklepants welcome back! that trip sounds so so so fun :)
    @fantasyflyte cleaning accountability buddy! I need to work on tidying up a bit and cleaning too o.O
    @anniemarie887 I feel you there! It is simply still too cold for a lot of things outside.

    Month/Cycle: 3

    CD: 6

    WAYDTGKU: opk (premom and the cbad bluetooth, since both correspond to apps), cm/cp, bbt, pnv

    R/R: I'm in a cleaning/organizing mood but I have to finish homework first. I've been working really hard on my pole climbs in class and feeling so strong and powerful; it's a lot of work but I love it.

    CS/Q: finally a little something
    premom opk today gave me a 3.5 based on the app. adding the cbad ones starting tomorrow.

  • @misspricklepants your vacation sounds so fun! Glad you had a good time.

    @fantasyflyte but, does anyone ever want to clean?

    @anniemarie887 we had a cold front too! A nice comfortable low 60s πŸ˜‚

    @chgilmore pole climbs...did I remember correctly that you were doing a pole class? Or did I make that up? (If so, bad ass!! πŸ’ͺ)

    @ReadyForaB it's so hard when they release results before your doctor can go over them with you!Β 
  • edited April 2021
    @ReadyForaB lol SIL is cooking, and when I asked what I could bring, and I said I was thinking about making a few sweets, but I figured there would be a whole bunch already, she said go for it!Β  Bc she actually wasn't planning on that part.Β  So I basically have no choice but to BRING IT. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
  • @pajamstagrams lol low 60s is like my dream... we wen't back to down to 30s and had snow on 4/1. we are in the thick of what we refer to as "fake spring". one day its 70 and gorgeous. the next day its sleeting/snowing.
