we were but I think it was partly that we were tired of looking and didn't think we'd find anything better. it worked out great but in the future i will take a much more objective approach and really hold out for what I want. of course we have more $$ now than we did when we bought our current house.

[ - ] So my DH and I are back on the every other day sex pattern after identifying and fixing our TTC issues (hopefully) had 2 MC last year and am really hopeful that now things will work out. Problem is we are back to the same old problem where his work stress makes having sex on a schedule so stressful. We need to have sex 6xs over the corse of 12 days (Drs. reco) why can't he just prioritize!! 3 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

probably just nerves/stress from going back to work. it will likely fade over time. if it turns into a bad feeling, trust your intuition and find someone else (doesn't sound like this is the case for you though). GL! [ Reply | More

[ - ] WWYD? we put a deposit at dd's old preschool, then decided to move. PSD told us we would get our money back only if school was fully enrolled (which I'm sure it was, but never mind), and if not, that she would send us a receipt so that we could count the deposit as a charitable contribution (the program is at a church). However, now she has not returned my recent phone calls. Should I write to her, contact the minister who heads the church or what? 5 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More
