I am so mortified at what just happened in the staff loos !!!!!
It was time to do my OPK, so I discretely hid the kit in a plastic bag from my handbag and took it into the loos with me. Our staff toilets have two toilets next to each other, a dividing barrier but there is a gap between the wall at the base as is usual for toilets.
Anyway, I carefully set myself up with the (thin, vegetable-holding type of) plastic bag on the floor. I PIAC, one of those little “sample” sized ones included in the Fortel pack, but end up with over half full of pee. Never mind, I think, a good sample to collect from.
I carefully place the cup on the plastic bag (in case of a bit of dribble is on the cup base), then go to pick up my OPK sachet. I THEN accidentally catch a bit of the plastic bag on my fingers as I lift my hand up , and I SPILL the entire contents of wee on the floor. !!!!
In the meantime, another staff member had come to use the loo next to me, and I was suddenly aware of the very wee-like smell (I hadn’t had water for a while so it was rather concentrated!!!) PLUS, to my horror, the floor was graded in such a way that spills would drain toward the drain, situated in the centre of the wall between the two toilets. So my great wall of wee was rapidly sliding toward the staff member in the other toilet !!!!!! I quickly fumbled for heaps of loo paper to soak it up, thinking, WHY OH WHY did I have to put SO MUCH WEE IN THAT CUP !!! I ONLY NEEDED 3 DROPS !!!!
Thankfully, the other staff member finally leaves the other loo, and I can quickly finish cleaning up.
Ohmigawd. I feel quite exhausted after all that stress !!!!
