judecorpDon't make me go outside today! Waaaaah! (Fairly light day - 1 school visit, 2 home visits, staff meeting, 1 home visit) It's freeeeeeeezing!
Jen started her new routine of getting up at 6:45am so she can make herself breakfast before work. This came from a conversation we had about when she saw the nutritionist and got some really great advice that she hadn't been able to really embrace yet. Breakfast is important, yo! My body woke me up at 6:30am because the sun was out. Damn it, I love longer days as much as the next guy but I hate sleeping farmer's hours. In Ohio, the sun came up LATER and stayed out LONGER and that worked much better for me. Aah well. I keep taking my temps earlier and earlier.
I'm having a tough time with the CF checks, probably because I have hormone problems and therefore have unreliable CF. It's seemed more "wet" than "creamy" for like the last 4 or 5 days but really, if that was the case, I should be getting closer to EWCM and I'm definitely not. So I decided to check cervical position/softness this morning, although I probably should have started earlier in my cycle for comparison. I remember that TCOYF mentioned (why do I remember these things?) that a firm cervix feels like the tip of your nose and a soft cervix feels like your lips. So there I am, right hand checking my cervix and left hand feeling my nose and my lips for some sort of guide. How hysterical that must have been! Still, I didn't know whether it was firm or soft or whatever (so of course I picked the Libra answer "medium" on my chart) but it /did/ feel kind of open. I think. So we'll see. I'll probably continue doing the cervical checks since I'm so unreliable with the CF.
I'm so psyched that the Dolly Parton Transamerica song is free on iTunes right now. YAY! Dolly Parton is so cute. I love Dollywood. I was there for my first honeymoon, yo!
Have a wonderful day, friends!
