    WAYDTGKU: bbt, cm, opks, cinnamon, metformin for me, vit e and c for him
    R/R: The storm wasn't nearly as bad yesterday as we originally thought it would be, because it made landfall in a different place than we thought, which was a good thing. Kind of stunk to be on skeleton crew at work and still stayed open, but what can you do. Rainy again today from the storm, just kind of hanging out until work later. Tomorrow is my last day off before school starts! I need school to start, I need the external schedule and I need something to focus on because I'm going stir crazy.
    CS/Q: at least my temps are stabilizing finally.

    @fantasyflyte That's good that you didn't get the worst of the storm. GL with school! I do agree I love having that kind of structure to my day. Especially in the crazy semesters where you basically wake up - go to class - eat - HW - go to bed - wake up again mode. I had so many HW assignments and tests one semester that I almost had no time to just hang out with people except on weekends.

    Month/Cycle: 50/10 AL

    CD: 13

    WAYDTGKU: HIO, bbt, opks, kinda checking cm, gf/df diet

    R/R: sadly our bonfire got rained out on Saturday. Rained a lot harder than we expected so our hangout with friends turned into chatting and various youtube videos. It was nice. Also omg my cat chilled in the living room with us and slept on our ottoman as we were all hanging out. I love that cat. She's great. She shows interest in new people and doesn't freak out, but she's not the super outgoing type that wants to claim some unknown person's lap. As far as my vaccine side effects besides the sore arm, I just felt a bit run down/not at 100% Saturday morning. It was a mixture of brain fog and fatigue. The fatigue may have started Friday but it's not uncommon for me to crash on the couch after work. I wasn't sure I was going to get through yoga but that went okay and did feel a lot better once I had showered. Which was good because I had an event with family to go to that was a lot of walking and it was flippin' hot Saturday. Other than that I was good. Strangely my arm was sore for less time this go around than the first dose ha.

    @inthewoods23 woo, I'm glad you didn't have bad side effects! My arm also hurt less the second time, interestingly.

    @fantasyflyte good luck with school!

    @inthewoods23 I'm glad your side effects were minimal

    Month/Cycle: 3/2

    CD: 27

    WAYDTGKU: temp and CM

    R/R: teaching starts on Wednesday, and right on schedule, I had my annual back to school anxiety dream last night. I'm ready to go back, though. Summer is fun, but by the end I'm kind of over it. 

    CS/Q: I think I haven't ovulated yet. Last cycle it was CD 30 so I'm not worried yet. Chart in spoiler if interested

    @fantasyflyte Glad you weathered the weekend ok! Enjoy the last couple days before school starts.
    @inthewoods23 Hooray for full vax status and that it didn’t hit you too hard!
    @wisewitch222 Geez and I thought my charts looked complicated! 

    Month/Cycle: 4/4

    CD: 8

    WAYDTGKU: bbt, cm, opk 

    R/R: More resignations at work today. I’m genuinely happy for those people because it sounds like they found jobs with better work/life balance and the opportunity to WFH. But it’s going to continue to make things more difficult for the people sticking it out. It feels like my company is so focused on supporting the people working from home that they’ve completely left behind the people at the production sites. I don’t know what’s going to happen to manufacturing if the industry doesn’t figure out a way to retain people in the current environment.

    CS/Q: Debating when to start opk’s. I think that I experience multiple surges per cycle until one results in O, so I guess I should still start early in the cycle? I think I’ll abandon CBAD though since it’s only going to pick up the first surge and what’s the point then.
