This is super freaky!

I saved another turtle this morning!!!

Yes, that makes it now TWO turtles within 24 hours.

Seriously, what are the odds of that!

I woke up really hungry this morning (thanks, progesterone) and felt like treating myself to a breakfast sandwich at Pan.era Brea.d.  They have a power samdwhich which is quite yummyy, it had ham in it though, oh well.   I doubt a little ham will make any difference during TWW.  I know one's supposed to avoid it when pregnant.

Anyway I digress...

So on my way back I am on a 2-way road with a grassy divider. So, I see this turtle hurtling across the road at top speed. Goodness, it was fast!

I simply could not believe my eyes.

My first thoughts were -- "Another one...are you kidding me?!!"

Initially, I thought I would wait on the road effectively blocking traffic and let him cross. But then I realized he may not be able to get onto the grassy divider and then he still had to cross the other side road too.

So I sighed, got out, put on my hazard lights, opened my trunk, took out my handy-dandy plastic bag "now officially termed the turtle wrap" and approached it.

He was so cute. He looked quizzically at me as I approached and only when I bent down did he retract into his shell. This one was dark brown with some orange.

I picked him up and walked over to the woods on the side he was coming from.

Just then a guy in a truck pulled up behind me -- I was entirely blocking the road, but its a part-residential road anyways.

I think he understood what I was doing - taking something and gingerly putting it in the woods. I waved thanks to him for stopping, and went on my way.

As I drove off I could not help but burst out laughing at the coincidence of it all. 

In other news -- still no symptoms of implantation such as pulling/pinching/cramping  :-(   Not sure what to make of it.  From all I have read online, ladies who had cramps in the days after 5-day transfer, had more successes, than those who did not.

I am bloated and gassy but that I know is entirely from the crinone. And I am always hungry on the luteal phase of my cycles - medicated or not - so that is nothing to go on.

No sore bbs - which last cycle had me wondering and when they suddenly became super sore towards 12 dpo I got excited. Now I know better -- with crinone it just takes longer to get sore.

I was very tired last night, but again not a symptom since I had an early wake up, a very busy day driving back and forth to the DMV, walking to the grocery store and cooking dinner. I foolishly walked to the grocery store and had to bring back stuff. It was not very heavy but I kicked myself for doing it.

Still no caffeine of which I am proud -- I could have done with a decaf coffee with my sandwich, but now that  am doing well I will just hold off until beta.
