I have today off again so I'm thinking of doing some cleaning. Im always amazed at how messy our house can get with only 2 people and one dog living in it.
I feel your pain lovetruly2015! I spend so much time cleaning and it's rare that I feel 100% "caught up."
I am going through my lists of what presents we have left to buy for Christmas and I think we are in pretty good shape. Now to just decide what to get DH....he is so hard to buy for!
pinkcat I need to go through what we have already bought for Christmas and what still needs to be done. Ah, so much to do!! I have a list on my phone but I know some gifts have gotten lost in the move so I need to strat trying to figure out where stuff is!!

I was supposed to work today but had to call out because our sitter cancelled last minute for today and tomorrow and DH couldn't stay home. I tried to find coverage so I don't feel that badly. Luckily I was able to swap my day shift tomorrow for night shift so I don't have to use 24 hours of CTO just 12.
I'm also irrationally annoyed because the water delivery guy came but I didn't know so I didn't have the empties out for him.

I'm so behind on Christmas stuff. We don't even have the tree yet! And of course DH is done with his shopping already which makes me feel even more behind.

I am pretty much done with my shopping except for my parents but I know what I'm getting them. MH, on the other hand, hasn't gotten gifts for any of his family yet. I just know he's going to try to put it on me to do but it's not gonna happen.

We don't have a tree yet either... you would think between the four adults living in the house right now somebody would have figured it out. But nope.
My contribution to Christmas decorating was wrapping lights around the stairwell banister.

I don't think we have done any Christmas shopping yet. I did however get my MIL to agreew to buy (I'll be giving her the money) and store DH's gift until I can pick it up. He only asked for one thing and its huge naturally so I can't hide it in to house and since its a cold smoker from Bass Pro I can't even use the card to buy it because he know. Difficult man.
Also I think my dog has officially convinced the mail lady she is a viscous animal. Poor woman came to drop off a package last night why she didn't have it with her when she dropped off the mail I don't know. Anyways she made no noise coming up the stairs and knocked on the door and predictably Hope when crazy. I think she ran to her van. Poor women.
Me: 31 Wife: 30. Legally married 2008, thanks CA! TTC #1 since 11/14 using donor sperm. IUIs Jan-Aug 2015 BFN Sept & OCT 2015 added Femara. BFN Saw RE December 2015.

+1 It's just DH and I and 2 dogs... I feel like we need a roomba (we've been avoiding it for so long) and to make it worse, DH is gone every other month so I have no excuses.

I have so much laundry to do it's crazy. I'm working from home and I should do some but I'm lazy and need to work. I have rehearsal tonight for A Christmas Carol and I so don't want to go. The show opens tomorrow but I do the show every year so it doesn't need much rehearsal.
I seriously doubt any work is going to get done today. I have a coffee meeting with another HOA director in about 20 minutes, then lunch with my H an hour or so after that. I suppose I might make it through one of the compliance trainings that have been sitting in my queue for weeks now...
Tomorrow I'm going shopping for the last of our Salvation Army Giving Tree gifts. We have 6 tags still to fill, plus I have one I took but hadn't filled myself yet.
I just put in a huge Amazon order yesterday for DH but I still need to make a list for what I have left to buy. My mom and I are going shopping Saturday to wrap everything up.
And I got my CMA test results back this morning and I passed!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone! I've been looking at 3 insurance plans for over an hour trying to figure out which one to buy. I have until the 15th to sign up for my coverage to start on January 1st. I just don't know what to do. I may choose the plan in the middle ground.

No way I'd choose the lowest when TTC, esp with my past issues. I'd highlight to biggest difference from the top 2. And figure out if any one is a deal breaker. If there is relatively little diff the opt for the cheaper one. understanding insurance is not fun.
Both plans are from Blue Cross and Blue Shield and have Copays. We are a one income family so we have a very tight budget. I am just trying to figure out which is better for us since I may have to see a specialist for my Thyroid issues. If I would've been added to H's insurance from work we would've paid $820/month.

I too am cleaning and am amazed that the house is this freaking dirty. We have a lot of garbage and it makes no dang sense. Even though I'm still cleaning out the old stuff that DH had stuffed in the house. He's kind of a hoarder a little bit. And his family used his house to store all the crap they didn't have room for in their houses, cause they're all hoarders a little bit too.
Also, one of my dogs brought a complete, only slightly dead rabbit into my house this morning.
