Blind, I think I would be overprotective of a blind puss cat too! When we got our two fur monsters, there was a lovely partially sited cat at the rescue centre. I wanted him desperately but they didn't think he would cope with babies. Naive ttc optimism there as that was well over 28 months ago.

Mmm...chocolate! I'm currently in bed doing the 'wave your legs in the air' TTC dance and a bit of choccy would be lovely! (Thought you all might like to know that... 
!
Just realised I got shafted by autocorrect earlier. Of course I fell in love with a partially sighted cat, not a cat located partly at the rescue centre and partly elsewhere... Silly me for not proof reading!

boodle v jealous of Sunday afternoon DTD. I went to the funfair at the chav seaside near us & was jealous of teenage tattooed instadiffers. I did fall asleep last night with my folded pillow under my arse though . I thought about getting up & putting the mooncup in but thought the gravity en route would be bad. Got a line on my OPK today so have started stapling them in an exercise book to see which day is darkest as I never got one as dark as the control line last cycle. If you don't O at all would you still get surges but never the dark line or would you just get nothing all the way through?
thunder chuck us some chocolate - I'm just about to go to the gym so will work it off promise!

Hi berries.
Glad to hear your father is doing better bajas. Echo the sentiments about wanting a baby in part for the wider family. I'm the only chance at grandkids for my parents, and believe me my mother never goes long letting me forget it. She doesn't realize just how painful the little comments can be.
We are back from our bonk weekend. What a bust. Got a peak reading on Fri morning before heading out, and DH was cuffed as we'd DTD the night before. DTD again Fri pm, used 3G of Preseed; took Jim forever to finish as he'd drunk too much and neither of us could really feel what was going on. I had to admit that the problem wasn't all on his end, and was completely mortified. Sat went on a huge hike, didn't DTD as DH felt ill at bedtime and spent hours in the bathroom during the night. Woke up this morning & peak reading had changed to high. Promptly went on crying jag that still isn't fully spent.
I am just so over feeling like this is my project that I need DH's help with, instead of a truly joint effort. He was ill last night, but felt fine before that, but DTD just wasn't a priority I guess. IC OPKs still showing faint line, so God only knows if the CBFM is right, or the OpKs are, or if my app is, which doesn't show of til tomorrow. I don't know if we're out of time or if the right time hasn't really gotten in full swing yet.
I effing hate this. I hate how obsessive it's making me but my DH is so laid back that putting him in charge of this to give me a break seems like a pipe dream. really disappointed in him. We could've DtD this morning but it didn't even occur to him and I was feeling too teary to ask, even though that would've been the thing to salvage the day.

Oh sid that sounds crappy, why don't men feel the same as us about TTC, mr bunny still has the whole 'it'll happen one day, average is 18 months' attitude that drives me crazy! Hugs!
Just turned down DTD as feeling blah, having bubble bath and galaxy choc instead

DP just made curry but it was too spicy for me so he's making it up to me with ice cream .
Done as much planning as I'm going to bother to do tonight, it's tv and early to bed for me!!
sid sympathies, but sounds like you did get some in the bank during the critical time frame .
