2) Josh Harris makes his way in to my daily conversations and I'm beginning to think I have a problem.
3) My feet are cold, but the rest of me is fine
4) I would like to go out for breakfast with Alan.
5) Alan has my two days off this week!
6) I don't think it's weird that I have a picture of Zdeno Chara in my bedroom. He watches over me when I sleep.
7) I really have to go through all of my clothes.
8) there is a bit of dust in my light that bothers me, but I'm too lazy too take it down and clean it.
9) my mattress is awful, but I can't seem to leave it in the morning.
10) my dogs are too cute. It isn't fair.

A Parachute in an Oak Tree: A World of Love
B/w 1/8: betas 17,345, progesterone 25.6
1. The county fair is 3 blocks from my office, and I really want a Lemonaid Shakeup, Corndog, and Funnel Cake for lunch. All with extra sugar and fried goodness.
2. I'm praying that these health insurance surveys for our agency will result in IF coverage being added to our policy.
3. Work has been a pain in my arse this week, and I'm not a fan.
4. My commission check from work covered H and I's weekend getaways last weekend, and I'm pretty happy about that.
5. I think my Tastefully Simple conference did more for my personal life than it did my business.
6. It feels like fall out! YAY!
7. Registered for a Marathon Relay last night with 4 other people. I'm running the longest distance of it, and I haven't been running much in the past month. Woops.
8. Our pool is getting cold, and it's making me sad. I don't want summer to end yet.
9. It's our anniversary on Sunday, and we finally decided what we're doing. Comedy Club and 5 course dinner, here we come!
10. Is it 5 yet?

A Parachute in an Oak Tree: A World of Love
1. I just ate a plain bagel even though i'm supposed to be off carbs and I loved it
2. I didn't take a shower this am because our power went out due to a huge storm.
3. i'm skipping family dinner with the IL's tonight to go shopping and drinking w a friend
4. I'm currently researching counselors for Ben and I to go see
5. I totally buy into the crap about fancy waters. like i'm obsessed currently with smart water
6. I yelled at my sister to clean her bathroom but mine is a mess
7. I didn't wash my hair after my workout last night and now its as stiff as a board and in a pony tail.
8. when I just spelled pony tail above I first wrote, poney. wrong!
9.I never bothered to put out our deck furniture this year and i'm happy about that because its done nothing but rain this summer and my chair cushions are new so i'm glad they're not getting all faded and soggy.
10. I'm so excited for my Run or Dye 5K this weekend!!
The Rowdy Roberts
1) I'm so grumpy today and I really don't have any reason to be.
2) I cannot wait to go to the gym tonight. I need to mentally and physically, I can just feel it.
3) First thing I thought of Sunday morning was "sweet, tonight Sister Wives comes on!" I'm obsessed with that show.
4) I really want an Origami Owl necklace for my birthday next month.
5) I went way over budget when buying stuff off my sister's registry for her bridal shower. I just got so excited that I didn't even pay attention to how much I was spending.
6) I still have 11 days of paid time off to use for the year...I need to think of fun things to do rather than randomly taking days.
7) Part of the reason I haven't used many days is because I kept thinking "well maybe I'll get pregnant and need the days off" or "maybe I'll hit my goal weight and can start treatments and need the days off" now I feel stupid that I was so hopeful early on in the year.
8) I tried sushi for the first time yesterday; it's disgusting.
9) I need a new book to start reading...any suggestions?
10) I bought a watermelon Friday night and have already ate half of it myself...it's just so delicious.
2) Just realized I'm going to O while on vacation with family. NOw that means I have to hide my OPK's and thermometer all week.
3) I'm completely wearing the wrong bra for the shirt I have one.
4) I would love some oreos
5) It's rainy and all I want to do is go home and snuggle on the couch and read.
6) I desperately need a Mani and Pedi
7) I'm sick of working
8) I hate my car
9) I wish I made more money.
10) I wish I worked with more people around my age.

1. I've decided to start giving a shit again and start peeing on some OPKs. At least then, if we have to do more IUIs, I’ll know we gave it an honest effort again.
2. DH is gone all next week. I’m looking forward to having a bunch of me time, but hate being alone at night…because I’m a child.
3. I’m almost half way done the crafts I’m making for a Christmas craft sale in November.
4. I’d like to stay at home and make crafts/quilts for a living, but DH says no.
5. I really need to get serious about saving spending money for our London trip.
6. Last weekend, DH and I spent a day in a wine region. We told each other that because we need to save for London, we would only buy 2-3 special bottles. We came home with 12.
7. I’m having a really hard time with running. When I was training for and running half marathons, I was lighter and in my early 30s. I’m finding it much more difficult now than I did then.
8. I got prescription sunglasses for the first time and they are AWESOME! I can actually be outside and not squinting the entire time.
9. My supervisor is on maternity leave, so we have a new supervisor for the year. I wasn't sure what to think of her, but we had a long chat this morning and I think she’ll be okay. She has a good sense of humour. She’s French though, and I just know she’s going to “encourage” me to use my French.
10. I have officially started my Christmas shopping!

TTC Since January 2011 - We have bad sperm2. @Xan921: you are making me want sushi.
3. I feel like crap today and just want to go home.
4. I got free coffee today from McDonald's and it was pretty awesome.
5. I'm wearing my new shoes and I love them so much.
6. I'm not ready to go back to school.
7. DH and I started a 500 piece puzzle over the weekend, and one of the puzzle pieces is missing.
8. It makes me sad.
9. DH got a promotion!
10. I seriously don't want to go back to school.
1. I had to reschedule our first IF appointment. I'm actually glad because I really didn't want to have to take a personal day so soon after school starting. I was able to reschedule it for after school on Sept. 18.
2. I have yet to receive my back to school letter with our schedules for the first few days of inservice. I always get paranoid every year thinking that I will never receive the letter and miss something important (even though I'll be working Wednesday the 21st in my classroom and none of the important meetings really start until Thursday and then again on Monday the 26th).
3. I went grocery shopping today. Not a good day to go since food stamps came out today so the store was extra busy.
4. The skunk smell finally left our house!
5. I'm frustrated with everyone trying to plan my days. This couple we hang out with from our church is always trying to push "girl time" and they want to go to a demo derby at the fair on my last weekend before school starts. Maybe a FFC: I'm not a big fan of the fair.
6. I watched a show today about the making of Steinway pianos. It made me wish that I had stayed in school and went for piano performance.
7. DH went back to work today after having his wisdom teeth out last week. His tongue is still numb. It better go back to normal!
8. I'm excited to go out to dinner on Friday with DH. We're going to do a little shopping too. I'd like to spend lots of money but don't know if that is possible right now.
9. We have a family reunion on Saturday. I'm not thrilled about spending the day around the SIL.
10. I have really been loving the fall-like weather. I just hope it's not a bad omen for winter!

2. I'm listening to the audiobook of 'light between oceans' and the narrator is Aussie and has such a great voice.
3. I love it when Kitten comes to snuggle with me the second my alarm goes off in the morning.
4. Threadless is having an awesome sale on their prints and I'm having a hard time not buying a bunch of them.
5. I'm going to the Melting pot on Thursday for ladies night and cannot wait to eat all the cheese and all the chocolate.
6. I hate that it actually feels like summer outside.
7. My ear buds keep falling out of my ears an its annoying.
8. I painted my nails with the same julep blue that @aimothy used on her nails an I don't like it on me as much as I liked it on her.
9. I think we might just have some blue box for dinner tonight.
10. I started watching Lost from the beginning again and I keep yelling at the characters and telling them their fates.
ETA: I got the cookie!!!
