This. Month.
SUCKS! Where, oh where do I begin?
All went well with leaving on Friday... got up to Lockhaven and drove around... and around... and around... and around. It's really rural, so you have to go by miles on your odometer to find the road to turn on. Well, my MIL said it's 6.8 miles when it's actually 6.2
We got to Lockhaven University while it was still light out. We finally pulled over after turning around for the 1000th time and a blue pick up truck pulled over right in front of us. THANK THE LORD, it's my IL's!! My step FIL said that's the first thing he heard me say when they pulled up. Apparently they drove into town where there's cell service, tried calling us and when they got vm, they figured we were somewhere between town and their road.
So we get there, all is good, we make our beds (not sharing a bed ) and hang out by the fire before heading to bed. I wake up the next morning to the sound of rain, temp and it's 97.47 I'm like "What the... that's awfully high from yesterday."
It literally poured 3/4 of the day. DH, MIL, BIL & I sat in their trailer playing Rummy and listening to my MP3 player for most of the day. Once it stopped raining, I had a shooting lesson & few beers with my SFIL (not at the same time!), which was pretty cool. I've always thought it was a good skill to have, and there's no one better to teach me than him!
Saturday's OPK was really pale. I figured maybe from drinking water, beer, etc... Maybe my pee was a bit diluted.
Things took a further turn for the worse today... Temp went back down, so I'm like "Okay..." On the drive home, we discovered that, somewhere between Friday and today, I didn't have my acupuncture money, the rest of our grocery money or the rest of the pet food money.
We get home at 2pm... OPK time. Held my pee from the time we left at 9am. I go, test... freakin' pale as crap, but cm is slippery. What the...? I look everywhere for the money... and it's gone. I don't know how or where... but it's gone. DH's back has taken a few steps back and I just break down and bawl
Everything is going wrong. I lost all the money, DH's back is jacked, my OPKs hate me and we haven't had any sex at all. Luckily, I don't have to cancel my acupuncture appt for Friday... but I'm not feeling good about anything right now.
I'm trying not to read too much into my temps, considering they were taken while sleeping, basically, outside. I really hope my OPKs are either just being weird or maybe it's the stress about the money and everything. I dunno.
I put 2 Salonpas pads on DH's back after he got out of the shower and after being told there would be "no sex in the champagne room", I gave him a back rub which he said made things feel better.
I'm still not holding my breath for any reindeer games though...
