Haha!! No I don't think anyone is bad for having a glass of wine!! It's relaxing and takes the pressure off TTC!!

Just jumped DH!! hehe!! Desperate to catch that egg.

BSL, Summerbird and Saz - don't you leave me out of the Coyote Ugly dancing!! I was only listening to my Coyote Ugly soundtrack whilst working today - spooky !!

I went to know where the bride's gone - MAAAAAF where are yooooouuuuuuu?!

I've still got loads of OPKs in the bathroom but they can bloody stay there this month! I start to think about BDing and then something happens. So today, my throat feels really odd.... you know like when you get the start of a cold...

Oh well, maybe I'll be too ill to go to the 21st birthday meal tomorrow for my Niece-in-law so they'll be spared my spot-ridden face!! My spots are making me very miserable. I hope they've cleared up by MAF's wedding!

I've got a gorge chocolate brown strapless dress that I wore to the evening do of my sister's wedding in December. Ribbon laced up the back and chiffon knee length (ish actually 'cos all different lengths....) skirt part. Really beautiful. Cost me £150 and I've only worn it once!! I don't do hats though so I'll get one of those feathery fascinator things - maybe on a headband!! Hair down and straightened with the celebrated GHDs!!

xx

summerbird · 08/08/2008 16:55

ps saz flirty and BSL see you on the dancefloor!!

summerbird · 08/08/2008 16:54

start practising your dancing moves saz

boogie boogie boogie!

saz007 · 08/08/2008 16:45

I'm sneaking off early to enjoy the sunshine while it lasts!

Have a lovely evening everyone

wildfig · 08/08/2008 16:31

I must admit that I went bargain-happy when Boots did that recent 2-for-1 on OPKs - my bathroom cabinet is overflowing with them. Even more sad, I do it because I quite like seeing two lines, if only once a month. I'm temping as well, but I can't get my head round anything more than that. Happy to drink grapefruit juice by the gallon (it's a Cosmopolitan... without the vodka) but will just trust that it's working IYKWIM.

Think this enthusiasm will only last a couple more months at most - is a bit like the start of term when you go and stock up with new pencils, maths sets, etc!

saz007 · 08/08/2008 16:12

I know BSL it was so cool, made us all feel part of the day even tho we were miles away. I'd never seen anything like before

I love that movie Flirty

Maybe keep a glass (or two) of the pink stuff aside for me please ladies....not grapefriut juice tho, I've given up on that it's just too rancid [yack emoticon]

FlirtyThirty · 08/08/2008 16:07

BSL - I'm beginning to think that OPKs are the work of the Devil too! Am going to try using them again next cycle and then that's it...no more! I'm just not buying them again. I just get a little sad to never see the 2 lines!
I'm going to continue temping - because I like to see my little chart (regardless of what's onm it!? and I'm going to try harder to analyse CM...I'm not very adept at this yet!

Summerbird* - I'm with you on the pink stuff and will happily be your lunatic dancing partner.

MAF - Hope you don't mind us all coming to the big day!

bluestarlavender · 08/08/2008 16:06

Saz - that webcam idea is awesome!

Pink Moet,it is!! I will dance with you, Summerbird...don't worry, we can be loons together!

watch it though coz if i drink too much i will be dancing like a loon at the evening do!

bluestarlavender · 08/08/2008 15:35

Dawn - I thnk you're proably right about not BDing every day... I've just been so panicky about not having very much CM for the critters to survive in, that's the only reason we've gone for every day in the run up to OV. Problem has been that I have no idea when OV is/has been this month. We're going to move to every other day after tonight.

I can't be doing OPKs next month, I'm a nervous wreck with all this stuff...

Our first group wedding - hooray! How exciting! I'm wearing a strapless fushia number...and a big hat! Oh, and I'll bring the camera. :-)

Dawn - I think you got a positive OPK for me...as I didn't get one this month!

summerbird · 08/08/2008 14:54

i will be bringing the hand crafted table plan and name places for dinner. what are you all wearing? i have got a lovely black and green prom dress a la SATC! x

saz007 · 08/08/2008 14:53

Oooh yes, MAF the countdown is on now to the big day!!! Hoping you have everything sorted and won't be getting rushed next week.

Virtual guests - yeay I don't need to buy a hat LOL

I'll take bubbles Dawn, we had those instead of confetti (and love hearts as favours) I am such a child!!!

Some friends of ours got married at Gretna Green a couple of years ago, they had a webcam at their wedding so we got to watch. That was a lovely touch

heverhoney1 · 08/08/2008 14:46

Dawn I think you should take the cake of cheese as yours looked so so lush!!!
