    Rant/Rave? DD was being super feisty last week but is being extra sweet now. 

    GTKY: What is something you're looking forward to about fall? Just enjoying it with DD! She has been celebrating Halloween since the spring: watching the Sesame Street Halloween episodes, checking out jack-o-lantern books from the library, saying "Happy Halloween" over and over again. Hopefully she won't be over Halloween by the time it comes!  :#

    Any thoughts about this cycle? I have no idea what is going on honestly. 

    Any questions? Nope. 

    Rant/Rave?  had about 20 people over yesterday to celebrate my son's birthday yesterday.  We had a party for all his little buddies the weekend before at a local bowling alley.  Pair that with the last week of July/first week of August being my busiest times of work all year.  I am exhausted. 

    GTKY: What is something you're looking forward to about fall? Ohhh alllll the things.  My son and I always do a corn maze and make a scarecrow using his old clothes every year at a place by our house.  We have three scarecrows, this will be the fourth. Other than that just all the typical things, halloween, pumpkin carving. everything. It is my favorite.

    Rant/Rave? went for my physical therapy today, and they also do manual therapy so i got my body realign again! 

    GTKY: What is something you're looking forward to about fall?
    Lower temperatures. I live in Texas y’all , and it’s been in triple digits forever now. i’m dreaming of just walking down the block without a danger of heatstroke and a sunburn. Plus, I just got tickets for my mom to visit us from europe in November, and i am beyond excited about that!

    Any thoughts about this cycle? Benched so just waiting for cycle day 1 of next cycle to actually try again

    Any questions? Nope

    Rant/Rave? I guess I ranted in the gtky question. 😅

    GTKY: What is something you're looking forward to about fall? I get some seasonal insomnia around this time of year because the sun rises too early and wakes me up but sets so late it takes a while for me to wind down for bed. I love it on paper-warm weather! Sun! But I am HOT and TIRED and CRANKY. I actually have some blackout curtains I’ve just been procrastinating on hanging, lol, that might actually fix things without needing the whole planet to move. I also like pumpkin spice lattes.

    @hestia-is-wearie I also can’t wait for 3 year old Halloween!

    @ReadyForaB  I always feel a little verklempt in the TWW if things aren’t happening like they should be.

    @aga31 Hooray for long distance visits from family!
  • @ReadyforaB We just ended "party season" over here. I'm glad we finally have a long break!
    @aga31 Ugh, I can't even imagine having triple digits all the time. It's bad enough when it hits the 90s where I live!
    @krb99 Nothing wrong with PSLs! I will probably get pumpkin cream cold brew when it comes out.

    And for those of you who are loving my DD's Halloween obsession...last night I said, "Goodnight, DD! I love you!" and she responded, "Goodnight, Mommy! Happy Halloween!"  :D

    WTO/TWW? Still WTO

    Any thoughts about this cycle? wishing a little now that we hadn’t tried to push cycles to start. The added bloodwork is annoying. Forgot how much I didn’t miss that… 

    Any questions? Anyone have experience with high prolactin? Maybe I should jump back to the IF thread - want to check in before I do, though… 

    Rant/Rave? It was randomly 90 yesterday and oof I was not ready for that. Rave - just got my first rhubarb harvest! 

    GTKY: What is something you're looking forward to about fall?
    i love all the cooler weather, pumpkins patches, and Dinovember! 
  • @hestia-is-wearie Halloween already? Love it! 
    @krb99 I’m too lazy to invest in blackout curtains, but otherwise agree! We all sleep so much better in the winter. Love that summer sunshine, though! 
    @aga31 is it humid where you are? I grew up with triple digit dry heat and it was okay. Humid heat gets me every time, though! 
    @ReadyForaB 20 person party - yikes! Hope you get some wind down time soon!

    Any thoughts about this cycle? Meh.

    Any questions? Not today

    Rant/Rave? I'm feeling all the feels today as I got a BFN this morning and sent my sweet baby off to kindergarten. I don't want that to taint this happy day, but dang if it doesn't heighten my sadness of an ever-increasing age gap if we're lucky enough to have another. I'm so excited for DD though! She has been waiting to start school and was thrilled to go this morning. 

    GTKY: What is something you're looking forward to about fall? Everything! I love fall. The cool weather, apple picking, bonfires...it's all great. 
  • @hestia-is-wearie That is so sweet! Hopefully she is just as excited come October. 

    @ReadyForaB Ooh, a corn maze is a great idea!

    @aga31 I hope the supplements help! What new are you trying?

    @krb99 Haha, when I'm hot and cranky I also think the planet should move for me. 

    @halfanewt Ugh, all of the extras that come with a non-natural TTC cycle are so annoying.
