Some Unpleasantness
Tonight was a tough night for me. It was not only tough because I went out running in 20 degree weather without my gloves. It was tough because of the conversation I had afterwards with Luda. You all know that Luda has been an amazing find in my life. Her approach to my fitness and [...]
Much Ado About Two Sticks and Some Yarn
I’ve been a knitter for a long time…well since my senior year in college when I taught myself how to knit in order to de-stress during my med school application season. Knitting is fun, productive and, best of all, calming. And the joy of creating something wearable from what previously was a whole lot of [...]

Profile Pictures
Yes, I am still working on our profile. Actually I am working only on the easier part of it: the profile pictures and have avoided the “Dear Birthmother” letter like the plague. (And please no more digs about my using the term “birthmother.” This is what our agency calls these letters. I do understand and [...]

With the accelerated protocol that I am on, it says that you should stay on the combination of the pill and the domperidone for 30 days or until you increase one cup size. One cup [...]
Best Purchases of 2006

Hope you find them helpful. Beauty Though I am a diva, I tend to be a little makeup challenged. Lipstick is fine, [...]
They Can’t Be That Simpleminded…Can They?
So here’s what happened. I walked into my boss’s office only to have forgotten what I wanted to tell him. (Typical half-senior moment) As I walked back out, I said over my shoulder, “I’ve got to give up the crack! I can’t remember a thing!” But he was all like, “don’t let people hear you [...]
The Binky
I can’t say that I worked on the profile this weekend. I did work more on the baby binky that I’m knitting. Not bad for one week of knitting, right? Also, the yarn for my next baby project arrived from YarnMarket. I’m going to make this kimono: in this color yarn: I wanted a yellow, [...]
So There I Was Minding My Own Business
So there I was minding my own business, when all of a sudden I heard such a clatter. I rose quickly from my desk shouting to AdoringHusband, “what’s the matter?” Imagine my shock not knowing with what I was dealing And I ran to the foyer and looked up at the ceiling. What before my [...]
Paper Pregnant
Our home study and home visit went through with flying colors. So I guess this makes us “paper pregnant,” as they say.Now if I could just get this darn profile done so that a birthmother could select us, we’d be in business. Â
