Gigs I love your hair! Plus blue is my favorite color, ha-ha!
I am getting pretty stressed here. I still don't have the trailer... Dh and I decided to finance it to not cut into our cash the next few months. Turns out the financing company hasn't paid for the trailer yet so the trailer place isn't releasing the trailer. Gah!
If I can't get the sheep trained and on the trailer I can't leave on Saturday which means I don't get to see hubby Sunday evening.

Pl- have you talked to the finance people? That's crazy they haven't paid it.

Gigs LOVE the hair color. Looks awesome and you cut it damn good.
Campn...and whomever else, being a mom at 18 while working fulltime AND going to college full time use this trick TRUST me.
When you need a shower bring baby in wash them off quickly, and then swaddle them in one of those baby towels THEN set them in a bouncer or carrier seat right outside the shower while YOU get to shower.
I've done it with ALL my kids.
They will be nice and relaxed and sometimes even fall asleep.
The steam and sound of running water helps cranky babies anyhow TRUST me.
Since they are swaddled up and snug in the seat, you will even get to dry off or even use a hair dryer if need.
They all love water and find steady noise soothing- running water, dryer etc.
Which is why the old colic cure was sitting them on top of a clothes dryer lol.

I'm so sorry hun. We had to give our dog away to another couple and it broke my heart. I cried for a good few hours. No matter what or why losing a pet is a very hard thing to do. Are they getting another dog eventually? Some cuddles may lessen the blow.

Hey all- took a break from B&B because of work stress and being busy. Have to step away sometimes when AF hits!
I'm trying to catch up, skimming through the last 15 pages or so! (love having this much to read!)
AF was just awful this go-round (horrible cramps, went on for 8 days..) and ovulation was painful, and then our timing was horrible, since we had his cousin in town and I was just run ragged from work. Horrible timing all around, and the stress of it all made me just not care about TTC this month. So, technically in the TWW but not really counting on it. Focusing on relaxing and getting some household stuff organized. In my mind, onto the next cycle, at this point!

Sorry cb about your sisters dog... I'd be heartbroken too.
As for the trailer, looks like I might be able to get it tomorrow. As for the drive, It's a 1550km (1000miles) drive and should take about 17 hours. It'll take me 2 days. Planning on doing the first 8 hours on day 1 and the remaining on the next day. The second day also includes 2 ferries. One is almost 2 hours and the second only 20 minutes.
As for the snow here, we'll be very lucky if it starts melting by April, but we've had it melt as late as may. One year we still had snow on the north side of the house and in the deep forest on my birthday, June 3rd.

Welcome back Rex! Sorry to hear that your timing was not so ideal and that it's been a rough AF/ first half of your cycle. FXed you managed to catch that egg anyhow!
PL, so glad you figured out the trailer situation. That stinks that the finance company dropped the ball there. Hoping you get to see hubs on Sunday!
J, that sounds like an interesting idea. There was this tv show, "Playing House" and she used to take her baby into the bathroom and swaddle her right next to the shower. She'd talk to her baby from the shower lol. I take 5 minute showers anyway when it's for business. I'm only in longer when SO is in with me or post gym sweat and soreness.
Gigs, loving the blue! You are so pretty! I especially love how the blue brightens up and bounces off of your eyes. Killer. Good job on the cut as well!
CB, sorry about your sister's dog! That's never easy to put a pet down. My dog still cries looking for my cat that I put down almost two years ago.
AFM, got another bfn just now. Having some AF like cramping off and on. Won't be shocked when my temp drops tomorrow. 6/6 non pregnant charts started to drop/ had dropped on 12dpo. So if my temp is 98.2 or less than that is better than any pregnancy test.
