Hello ladies! Nice to hear from all of you on my ttm board. I really love getting to know everyone that’s posted. And for all of you who’s ttm boards don’t work, you might try looking it up on the main index. I see a lot of ttm boards that are up but the ttm button doesn’t work. Hope this helps at all. Good luck with that!
My life has been pretty boring lately. Just looking for jobs and driving Jeff to the Metro for school. Since he has night classes, I always hit rush hour traffic. Which is okay some days and terrible other days. It gives me a lot of time to think and to look at the trees though. And while I do miss Jeff at night, it’s nice to have the house to myself sometimes. I can watch all the girly stuff that Jeff hates to watch! :)
There’s a little bridge that I have to cross every day to go to the freeway. It’s over the Potomac (I think) and there is this little harbor with boats in it. At night, the boats all have lights and it’s just enchanting. Last night the moon was full and it was shining off the water in this beautiful pale blue color. It’s definitely a highlight of my drive.
Still no word on a job for me. But again, I’m not looking all that hard. Jeff went to a job fair yesterday and is really close to getting a job! Hopefully within the week we’ll hear back. He went through the interview right there and the guy filled out everything except the higher date. So we’re really hopeful that he could have something by the next time I write! Wish us luck!
As far as the ttc thing, I am waiting till this weekend to test. I hate it when I over analyze all my symptoms but what else is there to do in the 2ww? However, I’m trying really hard to remind myself that this is my break cycle and nothing is probably going to come out of it. That said, I really wonder if I’m pg. Doesn’t it almost always happen at a time when you’re least expecting it? I’ve been really tired lately and really thirsty which is what I felt like during my 2ww when I was pg. In fact, I remember not have any of the regular symptoms like sore bbs and cramping. I feel like that again. Oh, but I do also feel like my bbs have grown! Nice because I’ve always felt a little self conscious about them but frustrating at the same time because I just bought myself a new bra about 2 weeks ago and I feel like I’m popping out of it. So maybe?? I plan on testing on Sunday.
This weekend we’re going camping with our ward, which is the reason why I’m not testing on Saturday (my birthday). Although I’m tempted to. I just can’t decide about it yet. I’ll let you know next week. Oh, and Shari, if I do decide to test, I’ll try and knock down the tent if it’s a bfp!
Also this weekend, we’re off to Mt. Vernon for their fall festival. I am so excited about this! Jeff is being so sweet to me and letting me have a great birthday. I love having birthdays on a weekend. You can do so much on the day! I’ll be 23.
I was counting the other day on how many months I have actually been ttc. 5 of those months don’t really count because for 2 months I was bleeding and then 3 months of bcps after that. But still, I counted them anyway. 17 months! I was surprised it’s been so long. This is only my 12th cycle but still! I can’t wait till we have decent insurance and I can look at going to a doctor about this. Although I still hope I’m pg now, but it’s always good to prepare for the future.
Lately I’ve been having a lot of thoughts about a spring baby. Pushing the stroller down the mall with all the cherry trees in bloom, sitting outside on a bright sunny day under a tree watching my baby play on a blanket…that kind of thing. It’s been really calming and makes me pretty happy. If I am pg, this baby would be born in May.
Well, that’s all for this week. Hope everyone has a good weekend! Oh, and congrats to Heidi and Megan on their pgs!! Have a happy and healthy 9 months!
--Always, Cat
