GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? ETA: Sorry for my USA focused question. You can certainly pick another Provence or just city to make it easier.

What are you doing to GKU?: Sex...OPKs will start in a week or so...
R/R/CS: Nothing really.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? Texas. Because I have a bunch of friends who live/have moved there.
R/R/CS: so much crap going on right now, I'm thankful I'm too busy to freak out but know that a good cry is coming. I just hope it doesn't happen in public.
GTKY: For some reason I can see myself living in Las Vegas, NV. I'm not sure why since I dislike heat, but it seems like it would be a fascinating place to live.

What are you doing to GKU?: BBT, waiting out period.
R/R/CS: It's my anniversary!
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? California, specifically the Bay Area. I've visited a few times and always loved it and could see myself living there. But, I can't see myself moving that far away from family and friends.

Happy anniversary notagoddess! Do you have any fun plans?
Thanks! We're going to see a movie that was partially filmed in our neighborhood. It doesn't have great reviews, but I think it will be cool to identify random places where we walk past every day!
What are you doing to GKU?: bbt, pnv, starting opk soon
R/R/CS: Nothing really right now other than trying to stick to my diet. I'd really like to be in a bit better shape before being pregnant.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? Same as notagoddess - can definitely see us living in the bay area if we had to move.
What are you doing to GKU?: Just trying to get back in the swing of temping. I took the week of AF off and now I am struggling to remember first thing.
R/R/CS: Nothing to see here. Just hanging out.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? I would move back to the DC suburbs of VA. I miss it. I think I'd also love Austin/San Antonio area of TX as well. I've done 2 cross country moves, and feel like I have at least 1 more in me!
What are you doing to GKU?: Well, my RE told me I had to obstain from sex for two weeks since I had a hysteroscopy so.....
R/R/CS: Nada, I didn't even temp this morning, whatevs.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? Probably somewhere down south. Where I live now (Connecticut) everything is so expensive, but everything is really convenient so it's a trade-off. Actually, I'll move anywhere that is cheap to live.
What are you doing to GKU?: just BBT and PNV for now
R/R/CS: Nothing today. TGIF!
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why?
This is tough because I love where I live. But if I HAD to move to another state I would probably choose Wisconsin. I feel like it has a lot to offer and would feel very homey.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? I like MA. Don't wanna leave! But Maine or NY would be fine, too.
youdontsay, I live in a high cost of living area too. Sometimes I think about what lifestyle we could have with our current income if we lived in a normally priced area. I'm sure we could have a house by now.

My parents live in New York state and pay crazy property taxes PLUS school taxes. Last week they went to Tennessee to look at some houses and towns. They found a town that they are in love with so I was on realtor . com to help my mom find some houses. She was like "make sure it's not in city limits, because then we have to pay a city tax!" I go and look at the property taxes on these homes and they're $400 a year!!!!! For a huge house and a ton of land! My house is ~1000 square feet and not even 1/4 of an acre and I pay $5000 a year in property taxes. So when my mom was complaining about the city/property taxes down there, I go "mom, FFS, I'll pay the property and city taxes for you! You don't even want to know what I pay here!"
R/R/CS: just hoping to O earlier than CD41 this go around
GTKY: Thats a hard question. I live in MI currently. I love living within 20 minutes of our family, so I wouldn't want to move far. Honestly though, my dream is to live somewhere warm all year round. I love the Carolinas. But it's really far from family (13ish hours) and I'm just not sure I could ever do that. H would move in a heartbeat though.
What are you doing to GKU?: sex, bbt, opk, metformin, methylfolate, ...
R/R/CS: I'm pretty sure I ovulated on cd 14. Just waiting until tomorrow to see if I get crosshairs.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? Washington. I just up and moved on a whim last year and I like it here. So if I had to move again I would just go north a bit.

Cycle/Month: Cycle 8 (6 AL)
CD: 8
What are you doing to GKU?: The Classic
R/R/CS: Got CD3 labs back and everything looks good. Estradiol, prolactin, TSH, T4, LH and FSH all normal. Still waiting on AMH results. If that looks good, will circle back with my doctor for next steps to determine what is up with my short LPs.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? Washington state
What are you doing to GKU?: BBT, CM, EODish, will start OPK's this weekend
R/R/CS: Started EOD earlier this cycle since I O'd early last cycle.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? It's really important to DH and I to live near family. Right now we live ~1 hr from everyone in my family. If we had to move to another state, we would probably move to PA (Pittsburgh area) to be near most of DH's family. But if we could just move everyone from both of our families to a new state, we would pick somewhere like Virginia or North Carolina with beaches and nicer weather.
What are you doing to GKU?: BBT. Will start OPK's next week.
R/R/CS: Ditto ellabee, with trying to stick to a diet and hoping to drop some lbs before getting pregnant.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? I could see us going to Seattle. DH used to live there and misses it. So different than Texas!

Cycle/Month: 6/6
CD: 1
What are you doing to GKU?: Waiting out AF.
R/R/CS: Charting for the first time this month. Will see how it goes.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? Alaska. We had to move away four years ago (thanks, Air Force!) and I have missed it every day since. We plan on retiring back there when DH is done working.
shadesofgold, glad your labs came back with good results. Hope you get more answers soon!
Cycle/Month: 8/9
CD: 6
What are you doing to GKU?: I think I'll try using OPKs this month, and other than that, will start EOD hopefully tonight . I have to stop taking my folic acid so I'm going to try and switch to food based substitutes this month and see what happens.
R/R/CS: My period is over! Feeling good about this month.
GTKY: Can I pick another province instead? I would totally move to Nova Scotia or BC. If I had to pick a state, I think I would choose Maine since that's where I've spent the most time. I would basically just like to be around an ocean, please.
tincupchalice, sorry about CD 1 I think you'll enjoy charting, it's so nice to feel in the know about what's going on with your body (even if it's doing crazy things or doing nothing at all!)
Cycle/Month: 8/9 (2 AL)
CD: 10
What are you doing to GKU?: BBT, EOD, OPK should probably start even though I likely won't O for at least another week or more, PNV, pre-seed, drinking water
R/R/CS: I'm looking forward to putting the thermometer away after I O this cycle (which I am doing since I will be taking progesterone and I don't want to be stressed by the false high temperatures). Taking my temperature during the 2nd week of the TWW gives me such anxiety-even though I've been spotting that whole week the past two cycles and pretty much knew I was out.
GTKY: If you had to move to another state tomorrow which one would you choose and why? Probably Virginia or Rhode Island, only because that's where my family lives.
What are you doing to GKU?: BBT, waiting out period.

We live in an extremely high cost area as well (MA). We had friends who sold their 2 bdrm condo here and moved to SC where they bought a 4,500sqft house with a pool. Sigh... Although in MA it's nice to have everything you could possibly ever need within 30 mins drive, plus the beach and mountains within 2 hrs.

Not sure yet. H said he might have something planned, but wasn't sure if it would actually happen or not. So we'll see! We don't typically do much to celebrate.

Were your born/grow up there? I went for a wedding in Juneau 2 years ago and every meal was the best food I've ever eaten. I'm hoping to go back for a fishing trip one day to send some of that delicious seafood home!

Happy Friday!
Cycle/Month: 11
CD: 9
What are you doing to GKU?: Same old, same old.
R/R/CS: MH and I had to figure out where to have sex last night. The roommate was studying in the office across from our bedroom and doesn't even listen to music. So we had to do it in the shower. Not fun. I was also researching REs in my area yesterday. Also not fun.
GTKY: I want to move back to Colorado. That's where I belong. One day it'll happen.

Cycle/Month: 7s CD: 14
What are you doing to GKU: Just temping and CM.
RRCS: I have this feeling I'm going to O this weekend which would mean we'd be out for this cycle because I'm going out if town without H. Oh well.
GTKY: Montana. I miss it so much. Sometimes, I think I just miss college living but whenever I start to get heartsick for it, none of the resulting memories are about college.
