Eff Yew Cramps

*Rant alert* Now that we are actively TTC I have found that I get EXTRA moody when the cramps arrive. I honestly feel bad for my coworkers today. Tell me it's not just me.

You have control over your attitude. It sucks, but get a grip.

Note to self. Get a grip. Confused

I'm just saying, I definitely notice the symptoms more now that I am paying attention to them.

We all do. You just don't have to take it out on your co-workers. It's not their fault.

Ehh. You don't know the backstory, or my coworkers. Or the level of patience I typically have. But thanks :) I'll be sure to work on it.

Your inability to handle PMS & the TWW is not on anyone else's radar. Again, get a grip.

*RANT ALERT*

I get extra moody when posts like this arrive.

TTC since October 2011.
DX with Non-IR PCOS in October 2012.
Missing RIGHT tube due to a prior surgery to remove cyst-zilla (40 lbs!) at age 12.
HSG showed tube was blocked - cleared by dye. DON'T DO CLOMID WITHOUT AN HSG!
Cycle #8 with 50mg Clomid & TI = BFN
Cycle #9 with 50mg Clomid & TI = No response.
Cycle #10 with Clomid 100mg + Ovidrel shot = BFN
Cycle #11 is a break cycle. Cycle #12 is a break cycle. (The break so nice, she did it twice!)

Next time it might be helpful to give the backstory if there is one.

Ohhh. Ok. Let me try that again. My coworkers are bishes and I am moving units the end of the week with a promotion which I am THRILLED about, but in the meantime, the high level of patience I typically have feels much lower today. My cramps and upcoming period also suck bawwwls. K?

I totally thought this was going to be something about Christmas. I read the post headline as "Elf Yew Chants".

Can do. I was going to make that stuff for Kiki but she says she doesn't put out till the second date, and I'm a busy woman sooooo... Oh wait!! I didn't post a picture of the finished short ribs. I'm an ass.

Just before we started eating. Those are roasted pearl onions beneath them.

Oh, and have a bonus bread. I made sandwich bread on Saturday.

The short ribs were *so* good. We had a bottle of our wedding wine left and we used it for the braising liquid, which we later reduced to make the sauce you see in the picture. It took about 6 hours from start to finish, but was well worth it. I want to make it again so I can perfect the dish.

I love to cook. I would rather spend hours making an amazing meal than just throw something together. Unfortunately, we only get one or two really great meals each week... crazy schedules.

We do cook a lot. Today I'm making a 15 bean thingy in the slow cooker with locally smoked slab bacon for flavor. I'll make cornbread when I get home. The ribs were something we did as a "special" dinner but we cook probably 6 out of 7 days a week.
