Re: How about some FFFC's to perk the board up?
I'm sitting here at work with my pants unbuttoned because they're just a little too tight in the waist for the holidays, this is making me really regret the two pieces of pizza I ate last night. Serious business today because I don't want to get caught with my pants down.

DH and I were given an Amazon gift card for $100.00 from my Aunt and Uncle for Christmas. We discussed what we would use it for, and then last week he really irked me w/ some house stuff and not helping me at all, so I decided to get myself a pair of Uggs with the gift card:) He'll forget about the gift card and I got a nice new pair of Uggs to keep my feet warm:) I felt guilty for a second...
Also I got 2 pairs of tory burch flats as well, one was an exchange for the pair he got me for Christmas for sizing, but I found a pair I liked better on sale so I got two w/ the refund I got and put the rest on the Nordstrom charge I opened and will pay with cash. I feel evil, but I'll look good
Back story - MIL was really cold to me at Christmas (wouldn't speak to me and actually physically pushed me away when I tried to give her a hug when we were leaving) and ignored DH until we told them we were leaving. DH's Grandma didn't give him a Christmas present and the whole thing made my heart just break. He was really upset and we both were upset leaving that night.
Here's my confession though, earlier this week we had invited both of our dads down for a weekend and neither could come (both had made other plans). In FIL's e-mail he put that "WE would love to come down and visit you guys sometime for a weekend." I told DH that I never wanted that woman to set foot in our house again until she could apologize to me for being hurtful.
He said that he understands but I felt bad for being so quick to voice my anger.

Love, marriage and a baby carriage
I never thought I would be working on resumes and searching for jobs for myself, my dad and my fil.
Ugh my sil. I will never understand and I should stop trying, she will come around when she comes around. Dh and I cooked Christmas eve dinner for his family (part of our gift to them since they have e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g and are so hard to shop for) sil showed up just after 3, we had planned to eat 4ish. When she gets there she announces that she has to leave at 5:15 to make it to church on time. (wth?) She was pushing everyone to exchange gifts so she could eat and leave, and I asked how she expected me to open gifts and watch the pots on the stove? We ended up eating at 4:30, she ate two bites and was drumming her fingers rushing us to finish. We started opening gifts at 4:55, her car was packed and out the door at 5:10. Very upsetting to us and to my in laws. Oh and dh and sil b-day is this weekend, they always take us all out and make a big deal since they are twins. No one has heard from her since Christmas eve. I bet she will show up Sunday, get her gift or whatever and then disappear for 6 months or until she needs bailed out again. Dh and I are over it, but seeing how much she brings down my in laws kills me. If she even had a clue...
I am right there with you!
I POAS yesterday morning b/c my body is all sorts of weird right now and I've been having a lot of cramping like I did in the early days of my pregnancy with Mariela even though I've had low temps. When I left the house before work the test appeared to be a dud with no result in the window. I was dumb and didn't throw it away and looked at it when I got home. There was the control line and the teeny tiniest faint 2nd line. I showed DH and he saw it, too. I think he was excited...I was freaked out. I want another LO and have some baby fever, but I don't want to be pregnant again, yet. I feel like if I were to get pregnant right now, I'd be cheating M out of her time alone with us and it would be our fault for not being more careful with NFP.
Well, then I realized it was probably an evap line after so much time had lapsed, so I did some Googling (I know, bad idea) of tests with evap lines and then decided to just let it go until morning and test again. I tested this AM and got a stark BFN. PHEW! Now I feel guilty for being relieved I'm not pregnant.
DH's cousin is getting married in November. In Mexico and the IL's want to plan EVERYTHING.
While I would love to go to Mexico, I really, really want to be PG
(or close to giving birth) around that time and have an excuse not to go. I rather go on our terms-on our time and when we can afford it. The IL's no nothing about our IF struggles (and I want to keep it that way).
