I'm feeling lucky!

One worry- gone. My temp finally went up today! Guess when my test date is (14 DPO)?? St. Patrick's Day! I'm so excited; it would be so fitting for us to get a BFP on "Be Proud You're Irish" Day! For sure, we'd have our little red-head. Of course, we didn't have sex last night, so that sucks. I literally fell asleep when we were watching TV on the couch, somehow moved myself to the bed, and was passed out until about 3:40am. That's when I temped (hence the open circle), but it should be pretty accurate since it's after the same amount of sleep that I would normally get. Tomorrow should confirm it for me. It'll take another day after that for it to confirm it for FF, though. With today's temp, it STILL thinks I O'd on CD 14. Ha. 

YAY! Let the 2ww begin!

Random Worries

First off, I was completely shocked at my temp. this morning. Not only did it not go up, but it went down. I'm guessing it's my usual pre-O dip (hoping would probably be the more accurate term). It's just odd since I had my usual O symptoms: bachache, ovulation pain, EWCM. Oh well. We shall keep having sex until I see some beautiful red lines. 

A bigger worry is my sister. My mom came over today and said that my brother-in-law's loan is almost used up to get her commercial license to fly helicopters. The problem with that is that he hasn't even finished his private license yet. He's been trying for 3 years, but he was completely non-dedicated. I've been sensing some issues between my sister and him the last few times we've all been together, and I'm guessing that this is why. He used to be a photographer for weddings and, as you would expect, he brought in quite a bit of money. Then, he just stopped and started going to helicopter school. That is no income for 3 years. My niece is 2- not good timing at all. I can't even imagine how stressed my sister is being the sole money-maker. Thankfully, she makes good money, but they'll be the first to admit that they've been stupid with money. They have a ridiculous amount of credit card debt; so much, that she won't even tell me how much it is. I fear what is going to happen, mostly for my niece. 

So, my two worries of the day.

All Clear

Yesterday, I woke up early (an hour before I usually temp) and had to pee. I didn't realize that I should have temped before I got up before I was already back in bed. Can you believe that?!? I have a missing temp on a potentially crucial part of my cycle. I was/am so mad at myself. That situation made todays temp that much more exciting and, when entered into FF, those "lovely" crosshairs were cleared away. Yay! I've got tons of EWCM today, so I'm thinking that O is coming, and we'll have much better timing than if I had ovulated on CD 14. Speaking of which, you may notice an open space in the BD section of my chart for yesterday. Yup, we had a break in our marathon. I'd like to consider it like one of those days in the Tour De France (J is a cyclist) where they take a rest day and refill on carbs. Except it was completely opposite. We're both invovled in an organization that had it's first competition yesterday (Odyssey of the Mind, in case you've actually heard of it). Being pretty much the head honchos of our specific areas, we were run ragged up until late last night. We had to get to bed early because Mr. J had a triathlon this morning (only the cyclist part, though). We'll get back on track tonight, especially with the appearance of EWCM. 

Here's hoping for a spectacular temp rise in one of the next few days!
