Epiphany! Yay!

Ok, thank all of you for the many smacking-me-upside-the-head comments the last few days.  Yesterday my brain finally clicked into place on a lot of things.  But let me start from the beginning. We went to a wedding.  The bride was a friend from our first year of college.  The wedding was beautiful, so elegant [...]

How Do You Kick Someone Out of Their House?

~~If this is your first time here, or here for ICLW I put up a post on August 21st that covers my  infertility history.  Feel free to check it out ~~ This morning was a whirlwind, I got up, ran to the groceries store for Polly, went to Q’s to drop off said items and [...]

Sipping a chai

Alrighty, sorry about my backslide yesterday into pessimism. Part of the ice cream thing has just been that since it’s summer I’ve been craving ice cream but not really letting myself eat any, it wasn’t totally an emotion thing although due to my emotions I gave into my craving.

What do you get when you give two crazy cousins the day together?

I’m totally wiped so I’ll keep this short. Had an awesome day, went up to Seattle to see my cousin… he really needs an Avatar since he’s like a best friend and we hang out all the time.  I dub him…Blithe. (Kind of sounds like a real name, but also describes his happy personality) Anyway, [...]

No! Bad internet, baaaaad!!!!

For my internet access I have a USB drive thing-y from Verizon.  First, let me say that for the most part, I love Verizon.  My husband and I have been on a “family plan” with them since before we were married.  He has been with Verizon for almost a decade now.  We are loyal, and [...]

3 is a crowd … ?

Ok, this doesn’t really have to do with infertility or adoption but here is what is on my mind. We have three, very cute and sweet corgis.  They are healthy.  They are housebroken.  And apparently they are unwelcome in a new apartment. I understand there has to be a limit.  I really do.  But someone, [...]

Epic Fail

I actually saw a car today, that over the back window was a giant stylized sticker that read “FAIL”.  It made me and Khimmy laugh (she and I had gone out for breakfast, and then ran to my guilty pleasure ULTA for some new face wash.)  Why do I fail?  Um, because of the total [...]
