The One Year Strong Ladies!

[NJAngelAPN]

I am COMPLETELY weirded out about the post-coital test. That's why I hate when DH wants to before I go to work in the morning. Like someone will just KNOW I did it not long ago . DH always complains that we don't DTD as often as he'd like. Part of it is our schedules - he works from 12n-8p, so he gets home around 9pm, which ends up with him asleep on the couch. I, on the other hand, usually try to leave the house around 7-730am, so I'm in bed by 1030p (I'm up late tonight, LOL). So I go to bed, he's snoring on the couch, my alarm goes off, he's groping my boob, and all I want to do is get in the shower and get ready for work. Ugh. Even our fertility MD said that we're going to have to work on that - luckily he said that DH was the one who had to compromise, haha! For the tests and stuff, they want us to DTD between 10pm and 12mn. Not sure why the timing is so important.

I'm trying to talk my boss into getting another MD to cover for us for a week in April so we can go away. My boss hasn't had a vacation in almost 6 years, which is INSANE. He's got three little kids (10, 8 and 6), and his wife is starting to give him a hard time that they haven't done Disney World yet. I want to get down to Nashville to see one of my old friends (friends for 25 years), so if we get a week...I can drive down there.

Going to a friend's for dinner tomorrow - today was a super stressful ridiculous day, so I came home and made a chocolate amaretto cheesecake. SO. GOOD. I'm going to take it over there so it's not around my house.

@Nj, I hope that your testing goes good and isnt too uncomfortable for you...

I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I went to bed early lastnight, I was so exhausted from working all week and was feeling sick too, I feel a little better today. Hopefully by Monday when i head back to work I will be back to 100% because it will be our first time taking calls from customers, so i am going to be nervous as it is, and being sick would make it worse trying to get through an already stressful day.... Lastnight when I got up to wake up hubby because he fell asleep on the couch, i could barely talk and sounded like i was about to loose my voice...Thank goodness today I can talk again even though I still sound a little hoarse...It would suck to be on the phones come Monday and to have no voice..........

Not sure what we will do today, the sun is shining and it is going to be in the 50's so not to bad outside...

Hmmm, it looks like DH wants to do some yard work today, I bought red, yellow and pink tulip bulbs to plant out in the yard, some mulch, weed stopper sheets to help with fixing up the yard, I am feeling a little crappy and sick today so i am trying to find the energy to either work in the yard with DH or maybe i will just go for a nice speed walk and try to get in some exersize, right now the couch is feeling good, so here i am typing on my laptop drinking a nice big warm cup of coffee

Thanks Mrs Jerome, hopefully I will be feeling better and back to 100% soon, LOL, there were a few days last week were I was so pissed, and I called my mom when I got off work to complain and bitch, than complained to my DH when ig ot home... I wanted to flip out but I kept my cool well I was at work, i have learned to be a good actress over the years....

I got my tulips from The Home Depot, since they are in season right now, so u might want to go there and check them out..me and hubby are trying to get ideas on what to do with the landscaping in the front and back of our house since we are pulling most of it up and starting over from scratch since the old stuff was all over grown with weeds and all wild, we couldnt salvage much, there are some flowers coming up in the yard that were planted from the previous home owners that we are keeping, i am waiting to see what kind of flowers they are, my guess is daffodills, there are some buds that i am waiting on to bloom...in the past I have had really good luck with lillies and may get some more of those when they come into season and are in the stores again....My neighbor was outside talking to hubby and offering to help with patching the sidewalk in the front were the cement is broken/cracked, he is a really sweet old retiree and a nice neighbor, offers to help and asks for nothing in return, we got lucky that we have such nice neighbors were we live now...

Im trying to clean out the plot we will use for the veggie garden but the problem is that its spider heaven..and Im totally terrified of spiders..of any kind..so I have to wait on hubby to do some of it because he just tossed whatever he wanted in there before I moved in..included old pavers...shingles...plant containers....and this old rotting logs..which I know there are spiders and god knows whatelse in those..so he can clean that out..but I tried to rake up the dried brush stuff and get that cleared away..idk how we are gonna clean it out totally for the garden..I was thinking maybe burning it out...its only about 30 sq feet for so....and its surrounded by wet railroad ties...so maybe we can burn most of the leaves and old brush and I think ash and stuff is supposed to be good for the garden..and then spread some weed killer in there and let that work for a week or so..and then go back through and till it out rake out the big rocks and stuff.. and start loading it with fertilizer...its been the compost pile for leftovers too so I know its great soil...and then we will finally put plants in the ground the week before easter when my siblings are here to help lol...I cant wait to get it cleaned out and nice and put wire fencing around it..just so the dogs cant trample it and stuff...the main issue is hubby is a talker..and takes forever for him to actually do stuff unless its something HE thought of lol..and he also is totally project A.D.D and starts one thing and then ends up doing 3 other things and finishing nothing..I on the other hand like to start it and then get it all done asap...one project at a time...

Good luck with that project, it sounds like you got your work cut out for you. I dont mind spiders as long as they are not poison ones, in my previous state we lived in there were black widows and those scared me because they were poison.

I can totally understand what you are saying about your DH, mine is working on the yard now, and he is all over the place with projects, he doesnt always finish projects either before starting something else, and than i have to nag him about it, LOL, so it will get done... it drive me bananas, LOL

Just had a fight with hubby because I was watching SisterWives..and apparently just watching the show is a sin and a bad influence according to him..Im like..wow..seriously..Mr. Porno...you can validate doing that but I cant watch a freaking tv show because I find it amazing that they get along and havent killed each other yet..wow...uggh..men are such dumbasses sometimes..Im 24..its a tv show..doesnt mean Im gonna go out and do it .....

jeeeeeez don't you hate that...i know what you mean....BS if you ask me

 

[HappiestMom]

yep..but he made it all better by bringing me back a kids meal with the cutest little lamb bobble head toy and not even mentioning the fight...so for once lol..I am just letting it go..I had too good of a weekend before and have a hopefully great day tomorrow so I am not letting this get me down all night...

 

[DaretoDream]

Lucky that my hubby doesn't do the whole porno thing- since he is very religious and all. And well, we both find that show distasteful and disgusting. BUT i agree with you- he can't just decide what you watch is gross when he watches pornos. That's just insane.

 

[HappiestMom]

well he doesnt do the porn thing anymore either and had turned religious within the past 2 months...but he did do it and he totally validated that with the whole oh I dont turn him on thing and its his right..as a man and all that crap..... so now its like why do you think you can start telling me what to watch...when what Im watching doesnt affect you in the least bit...Im not watching it because you dont turn me on or because Im not happy with you lol..Its a tv show..its entertaining...just like the duggars..I dont watch that and want a billion kids lol..so I think I can watch shows and make my own decisions ...not like I was consulting them for advice lol... but anyway....he said he was sorry and that it was a stupid fight and we were fine the rest of the night..till he started snoring but thats a whole diff story lol...Im eating some cereal now and watching price is right and then a little bit after that I gotta start getting ready for my appt...yay! I'll be back by 5 or a little after and be posting any pics or videos or info asap....and we are now at OLIVE...yay!! and I need to do a bump pic too because Im pretty sure its gotten bigger!

 

[hopingnowsit]
