Weekly Randoms 7/11

[cali]

Hey ladies, I'm here early so I figured I'd start the Randoms thread this week. What's everyone up to?

[skategirl128]

Laundry room construction continues! Hopefully it'll be done soon! At least the gas leak was discovered and fixed without us being hurt. The final report from the gas company was really scary!

But, the walls are now painted, ceiling fixed, drywall in and we should be ready for installation of the sink cabinet, storage cabinet/countertop and then the washer/dryer! They're also replacing the pantry door and the door to my furnace/water heater closet! It'll be a much cuter space to enter my house from and to do laundry in!

[bethkate]

Hey, ladies!

skategirl128, that's super scary! I'm glad it all seems to have worked out! I'm jealous of your new laundry room. I can't wait until I have a nice-looking place to do laundry.

AFM, I'm hoping our contractor shows up tomorrow to start our roof. We're getting our roof and siding done, and we gave him a deposit probably 3 weeks ago, but he keeps coming up with reasons why he can't start yet. If he doesn't show up tomorrow, I'm going to be pissed.

[skategirl128]

Good luck bethkate! I'm so over home improvement

[glb30]

skategirl128 and bethkate exciting stuff going on at your houses!!!

AFM: I'm off work this week. Done with my old job, and start the next one next Monday. I'm at the doctor right now, but I think I'm going to sit by the pool this afternoon. My dog is home from daycare, and already seemed annoyed at 10 am that we were not outside doing stuff. Can other people tell when their pets are annoyed? Bc I totally can. Haha

Yeah, I can totally tell when my one dog is annoyed. She even sighs super loud sometimes and she throw herself down on the ground really hard when she's pouting.

[glb30]

cali my dog totally sighs too!!! These animals are so dramatic

[glb30]

I caved and took a FRER, at 4dp5dt (of two)- bfn. It's early, so I'm okay, but my husband begged me not to test again and I promised not to. (He says I get too stressed- and he has a point...if I got a BFP, I'd analyze line darkness multiple times a day.) How can I ignore the 5 FRER's still left- yes, I bought 2 packs- for 10 days???!

[menrandes]

Heading to New Mexico tomorrow afternoon! I'm all stressed out over here. I'm fine with flying, except take off freaks me out a little bit. And the anticipation build up of actually taking off. Two minutes in, and I'm fine.
Ah well. Tomorrow night I'll be settled.

[cali]

glb30, ugh, it's so hard to hold out!! Hang in there!!!

menrandes, safe travels! I'm sure you'll feel much better once you're settled.

[MissSally]

BOOKED MY BEACH HOUSE TODAY! I cannot wait. 4 weeks and counting.

[cali]

MissSally, that sounds amazing! Take me with you!!! Lol

[rslh10]

MissSally where you going?

glb30 you can keep me occupied this week and I will keep you away from those pee sticks! Although I'm super bad for being a pee pusher sooo...
Also, lol @ your dogs. The pic on IG of one laying on the floor is what I picture the dog looking like when you say it's annoyed LOL

menrandes I love you!!! You got this shit lady.

skategirl128 oh I can't wait to see pics!!

bethkate I hope your contractor shows up. That's annoying as hell!

[rslh10]

cali, how are bcp treating you?

[rslh10]

I had an appt for my lining check today! All looks well, so we are set up for a transfer Monday @ 11:30.

Cue freak out.

Like super freak out.

[MissSally]

Going to Edisto Island, SC! My family has been going there for ~30 years. It is the absolute best!!!

Also I'm mobile so I can't tag, but YAY for your transfer omg!

[cali]

rslh10, just started again yesterday after 3 days off of them (per doctor instructions) and today I got the AF from hell. I don't know wtf is going on but I just hate bcp. I'm so excited for you for your transfer. I know you're freaking out and it's scary as fuck but you have got this girl!

[rslh10]

cali ugh. AF. I think if we're going through all this shit, we should be able to not have her. Even though she's crucial lol but STILL. Lol

And thanks! I feel optimistic, I know I'm going to be monitored way better and have a doctor that gives a shit about me. Just having a hard time separating my previous pregnancy with Kenley and the excitement of this one. It's going to be a work in progress probably forever. Blah.

When will your baseline be? Stims are what, the 27th?

[bethkate]

rslh10, Thanks. Super annoying. The good news is, he did end up showing up this morning. The bad news is, the company he orders from dropped off the wrong shingles (or he tried pulling a fast one and ordered the cheaper shingles while charging us for the expensive ones hoping we wouldn't notice...) so he's gone to get the correct shingles ordered.

[skategirl128]

Ugh that's the worst bethkate!

There's so much progress in my laundry room. It should be finished today! Everything is brand new It looks so good already!

[cali]

rslh10, your feelings are completely understandable! I hope having an OB you trust makes you feel better! I switched OBs after my loss and I feel like if I get pregnant again I'll feel so much more confident with my new OB (but still scared because how can you not be)! Ny RE's schedule changed so everything got pushed back a few days for me, so now baseline is 8/1 and stims start 8/2 if all looks good. I was annoyed by the delay but it actually works better with my school schedule since my last final is 8/3 and I should still be able to get everything in before I go back, so I'm over my annoyance. I just really want to get this show on the road!

[rslh10]

cali ugh. Sorry for the push back, that sucks no matter what. I'm glad it works better with your schedule though!

[glb30]

@missally that's awesome!!! Edisto Island- I need to check this out!! I'm always looking for new places to check out and we only like to vacation in the US. I find out of country vacations to be a little stressful....

@rlsh10 I ask this everyday, but when is the transfer? Lol. As soon as I'm out of my 2ww, you'll be in it. Ahhhh

cali aw!! My AF is usually really chill on BCP. When are you finally done with them?

skategirl128 you are making progress! Can't wait to see the pics!!!

[glb30]

Oh- and I am headed into work to turn in my computer and say bye to people. I'm also having lunch with my BF though, so the trip downtown is worth it.

[cali]

glb30, yeah, it's not cramps just really heavy AF, I dunno what's up. My body just sucks! I'm done 7/28, counting the days! Congrats on the new job, that's so exciting!

[rslh10]

glb30, July 18th! Next Monday@ 11:30!

[rslh10]

I haven't had time to watch an OITNB until just the last few days....Oh fucking hell. I have one episode left....

SPOILER: Click to show

P CAN'T BE DEAD. I WILL JUST BE SO CRUSHED!!!!

[elliecat17]

On the animal train of thought, does anyone else's animals react well to bribery? I let Soot sleep up by my face last night (they are normally only allowed at the foot of the bed, and today he actually came out and played in the living room right by our new dog! I don't know if it's because he got special treatment last night, or if after 3 days he has decided that Hedwig won't hurt him because she could care less about the cats.
