April 2006

Kinda of excited…

So Rye and I have been “house hunting” for a while. We have a huge list of criteria. There is nothing wrong with our house now..in fact I love our house…so one of the things that I am hung up on is it must be another excellent house. But….I have agreed with him that it is a good financial move..to move. I bought this house almost 9 years ago ..for…


In which I whine….

So I got my period today. And I turned 38. And Rye worked all day..won’t see him till 11ish..if I am lucky. Garin came home sick yesterday..so I brought him to the doctor. He has the same thing I did ..10 days ago, but I never went to the doctor. So we have Strep. The good thing is now there is a script for Penicillan in the house,and more that…


To keep Cloudsome Happy!!!

So…. Short list of things to bitch about today: 1) My throat really, really hurts still. 2) Rye calls me at 8 AM this morning..he had gone off to work. The AXEL of that stupid Jeep BROKE. I swear I should have a Blog on the trials of that stupid thing. I hate my husbands Stupid Jeep dot com. Have I mentioned that he belongs to forums where people POST…


Well….

So I didn’t break Tristan’s face. I was worried all night as it was dark when it happened and then he made me plaster him with healing bandaids..so I couldn’t see underneath when we got home. This morning I managed to bribe them off him..as he likes bandaids and will wear them for a week. No swelling and just a little abrasion..and no brusing, yet. Scarlett, on the other hand,…


Triggers, boo boos, bandaids, and disgust…

All over the place tonight…maybe I’ll work backwards. I just got back form my kids cousin’s birthday party. So nice samll family like affair..simple, cake and presents, nothing insane..a bout a half dozen kids. No sooner do I get there, two of the guests ( relations on the other side?? I am not sure..they seemed like an older lesbian couple..not that that matters..) are showing off to Colleen ( my…


Life is not a box of chocolates….

it’s mixed nuts! Been so out of the loop! Wednesday morning I woke up and relaized that I had been hit with a flu…fever, chills, bad sore throat, aching bones, sweats, headache..all but the belly heaves. I lost two days in bed. Two beautiful sunny days which I was planing on gardeneing, and cleaning, and getting the Easter stuff together, plus Rye’s day off, kids home from school, etc… Recovered…


Taurus

“You know that your ambitions are delicate, and the fact that certain individules have found it within their rights to play dice with their loyalty or play politics instead of carrying water has been disconcerting. Yet, if you can let the petty things remain small and keep your heart and soul focased on the vision for a better world that you have been nursing, you’ll find that all the games…


Crazy Redheads and Coffee…..

Man, I still have to pee. Lousy personality, but that waiter kept the cups filled. This AM I took a little ride and met up with Suz for a little brunchie-brunch…didn’t really taste the food that we ordered, but loved the talk!!! Look to see the mirror image on Suz’s Blog of me snapping he pic..lol. Yeah, we are goofballs. Laughed while we did this!! The rest of the folks…


Wait, wait, wait…

and wait some more. I KNOW they have had to recieve the letter by now. I sent it Monday. It is Saturday. The postal service is not that bad. I keep on checking my bulk mail box and deleated any crap as I don’t want them to be lost in it. I keep checking my reglular mailbox too. I keep yelling myself that they will needs time to digest, process,…


Letters, changes and theories..

So just to keep ya’ll on the edges of your seats…I have heard NOTHING re the letter yet. Wel at least form the parental units of my son. Max does not hink that they have recieved it yet which makes me think what is wrong with the postal system in this country? It really did not need to go that far..and I sent it Monday. Geez … Anyway, I did…


HUGE………..

I am really in a state of shock. Adoption.com forums made a huge blunder and deleated the GLBT forums..and people are leaving in droves.. And where are they all going you might ask? Well they are going to Soul of Adoption. How perfect is it that our Heartened had the perfe non profit, ad free non agency owned truthful adoption forum ready to run. Hats off to Heartened!!! This is…


One year ago today…

I got my first message from my Max… “Holy smokes…mom?” Just like that..and it was over. Exile was over. I can’t beleive a whole year has gone by. I have been writing my son and been involved in his life for a year. A year. Wowza.


Accomplished!!

So this morning, as I was reading comments, it hit me “Oh yeah..I have to send that letter today!” So I printed that puppy up, resisited one last doubtful look, signed my name, addressed the envelope, found the stamps and stuck it in the box. Gone it is. Then, feeling acomplished, I cleaned out the junk drawer. That alone was a big deal, but since I had to hunt though…


Noggin=nothing

Dorie the Fish says it well, “Nothing in my noggin.” I can tell you about how I found my hair dye. I can tell you how I got mad at my hair and hacked at it last night. I haven’t decided yet if it is a get some height and texture good thing or a moppy bad thing. I can tell you how I still haven’t delt with the laundry,…


Letter goes out Monday…

With “blessings” from the boy: Hell, go for it. I want them to stop being retarded too. Probably more. I’ve had to live with the idiocy for the last 18 years. Yikes. Worst thing that happens is they continue being stupid. Which wouldn’t surprise me. So I’ll just continue doing the exact opposite of what they say, which wouldn’t surprise them. Then, everyone is happy. Except them. But we dont…
