Well... In about 15 minutes time I'll know my fate... Wish me luck at actually failing a test.

one of the few tests in life you actually want to fail but most women seem to pass with flying colors

Not the thing I want to hear as I sit on the bathroom floor of my old college waiting for the result...

Never been so happy to fail a test! I'm OK, it's OK, the stress all just came off me at once...now I'm dizzy. No little nugget for now! Lesson learned!

Hate to be a downer, but you could actually still be pg...

Shhhhhh! I just needed the stress off, I get it's still possible but now that possible is even smaller. In reality with how sick I was with that UTI the timing of that could very much be related to this.

Yep between that, stressed, your increase in physical activity all can be factors.

I've tortoised myself silly today. Yes, I just used tortoise as a verb lol.
There was a mini photoshoot with the hatchlings today and Mia came inside for a probiotic+supplement snack. Everyone is tucked in and I'm finally going to eat dinner. Uhhh...that is after I clean up Mia's mess LOL.

If my kids weren't already tortoise people before these hatchlings arrived, they certainly are now. They are smitten with them!

No real increase of physical exercise...but I've also been "coping" with losing half my job so that stress alone could do it.

Keep practicing and I'm sure you'll pass one day. ;)

Every year on 9/11 I watch the documentaries and stuff that air on TV mostly just the survival ones about the first responder and workers. Well now ones on with basically a bunch of clips regular people took during the day from all over the city. There was one, you could see person after person jumping and while I've known since the day how big of a tragedy it was, I don't think I actually thought hard about the people in the upper floors. I had to leave the room I couldn't watch it.

I couldn't leave a “like" because I didn't want folks to be confused, but I “like" what you are reminding all of us about, and I “like" that you are tough enough to admit you had to leave the room.

Hey Grandpa!!! I've found a turtle for you that I'm sure you'll be interested in getting. I even have a picture of it for you.

I've been spending time reading real books to help with my cognitive repair. When I pointed out that I've plenty of books on my iPhone & iPad I was reminded that those are designed to distract and that what I need is to be able to focus. BUT… during the week I'm here all day and would always welcome a phone call from a true friend such as yourself.
