Cheering on all of my 3T ladies! DX with PCOS - 11/2012 DH S/A & HSG - Normal - Too many rounds of Clomid = BFNs - New RE 5/2014 - Repeat Testing - Losing 40lbs before injects/IUI
Tonight and tomorrow we have no real plans. Sunday we are going hiking with one of my friends and then having a little BBQ. Monday we are going to watch my Dad in my hometown's Memorial Day Parade and then celebrating his Birthday we a BBQ at his house.
TTC 19 months ~Started RE in March 2014~ DH was not ready for IUI so we waited ~Started acupuncture in May 2014~ ~~BFP 7/6/14~~~EDD 3/14/15~~It's a girl!!~~
Leaving work early today to meet with a builder then we'll come home, pack for the rest of the weekend, and hopefully relax.
Tomorrow, we are leaving to visit H's parents in the Dallas area. I'm not looking forward to it. I love his parents, but their house is unkept and his mom cooks weird food. We're coming back Monday morning, so it's going to be a long two days.
Tonight is happy hour with a few close work friends at our favorite Latin place in the city. I'm hoping to drink off the last 4 months. It will be emotional because they've been very worried about me since our loss but hopefully after the heavy stuff it becomes fun as usual. DH has already offered to pick me up because he fears I will drink away my stress.
Tomorrow is sleeping in with DH and then a little bit of shopping. We need to go to the furniture store where we had put a few items on hold and reevaluate our potential new house. I know the one piece won't fit so we'll see how it goes.
Sunday and Monday we have no plans. It will be amazing. We'll go to church of course and then I'm hoping I can convince DH to go on a long trail walk one or both days.
Tonight, tomorrow, and Sunday - No real plans. I would like to go to the farmer's market tomorrow morning and clean the heck out of the apartment. Monday - MIL "volunteered" DH & I to go canoeing with her BF and his family. :-L DH sees no problem with it. I, on the other hand, am pissed. And now we have to bring the food to grill. So I have to spend my day driving to a canoe place, bring perishable food, spend a day with people I don't know, all the while trying to be sociable. I get that she wants us to get to know that side better, but I take issue with the fact that I'm now being forced to do something. I know it'll be fun, but she could have asked first instead of saying we're going, end of story.
ETA - There is a brand spankin' new meteor shower tonight that will best be viewed in North America. 2-4am, 100-200 per hour. I know what I'm doing tonight.

Our friends are coming in from Ohio for the weekend. I can't even explain in words how excited I am to see them!!!
The weekend with them entails hiking, running, smoking lots of meat, winery, golfing, and Brij caving to eat gluten!
Then Tuesday and Wednesday H and I are both off and doing a staycation. We're drawing random things out of a hat to tell us what to do each day. I'm so ready!

Read this as smoking lots of weed. And was like "go brij!"
Tonight- date with DH. I'm excited because he picked to go to a healthy, local restaurant which is something he doesn't normally pick. Tomorrow-workout, running errands Sunday- church, dog park Monday workout, cleaning
We don't really have anything planned which is very unusual for us. A lot of our friends are working Monday Bc the schools are using it for their makeup day for bad weather.
Leaving work as soon as DH can scoop me up (hopefully around 4:30-5) and headed home to NJ. I can't wait to see my family! We'll head back on Sunday evening so we have all day Monday to relax by the pool if it's nice or get some more stuff done around the house.

These weekend plans sound fabulous. As I was reading through them, I kept thinking, "That sounds fun, I need to do that!"
This weekend is the kick-off of LAKE SEASON in Mid-Mo! We are headed the the lake house. DH has been working some major long hours, so it will be three amazing days of quality time--plus his immediate family will be there. We all get along really well, so it will be good to spend time with everyone (I may need to be reminded of these words by Monday ) . I am hoping this weekend holds some shopping, sun, boat rides, and delicious food!
We're having a bunch of people over to drink tomorrow. Nothing special for Memorial Day, it just happens to coincide, I guess. Otherwise, nothing is planned for the weekend.

I was thinking about looking for this tonight; my dad always used to take us out to see things like this and saw an article about it that wasn't very specific about timing. Is that an east coast time?

I took today off so I get a 4 day weekend, woohoo!
This morning I had a doctor's appointment, then I went to lunch with Dh and my bestie, then we went grocery shopping and afterwards came home and cleaned our apartment, including shampooing the carpets. It smells so good in here now. Once all of that was done Dh and I went for a 3 mile walk/jog at a local park and now we're trying to decide what we want for dinner.
Tomorrow morning I'll go to the gym and then in the evening we're going to a friends for a cookout/bonfire. I bought stuff to make smores...mmm.
Other than that, our weekend is open. My parents opened their pool so we're hoping by Sunday it'll be warm enough to spend some time in that.

After 2 shitty IVF cycles and 1 loss at 6+2 (EDD 11/7/14), DH and I are pursuing DIA.
11/17/2014 - ACTIVE AND WAITING!
Pregnancy was never the end goal; being a mom was.
I've been holding out on GP: I got drunk once and started a blog: Here it is (11/7 update)
Update for my plans is VFW installation dinner with free food and booze tonight. Then ovidrel shot at 11:30. Tomorrow possibly down the shore to help the ILs work on the shore house. Sunday morning is IUI. I was given the "multiples" speech because I have about 3-4 follies that are expected to go on Sunday. So, FX something happens.
Starting IVF cycle meds tonight after all... EEEEKKK! So nervous... Please body do what you're supposed to f'ing do for once!!!
Other than that, taking it easy and still hoping our house doesn't burn down! I was hoping to do some gardening and clean-up our front and back yards, but that's going to depend on how smoky it is outside (today, it's not looking so good).
TTC since 3/2012
DH - 36; nml swimmers; Me - 36; almost no AMH (last 0.081), low AFC, nml FSH/LH
J will be working, but should be off by Monday. I'm super deep cleaning since it's raining and I'm by myself . Clean out fridge, pantry, cupboards... Things that are getting out of hand but need attention. Doesn't sound exciting, but it'll be nice. Then j and I will take it easy Monday

How rude of me to post and run lol. I accidentally got drunk last night lol. So today Tom and I are just relaxing and watching tv. Tomorrow I want to get to the gym, run some errands, and bring Vera to a park to run around.
Monday is supposed to be really nice so hopefully I can spend some time outside. :-)
