Something other than the usual ....

Let's see if I can report about something other than my ongoing "battle" with losing weight. Maybe when I lose another 20 lbs I will talk about it again:).

I am at work today, switched days with my boss, he worked Sat/Sun. I work Mo/Tue. Which is nice, I had a weekend off, which I was excited about, because DH had signed up for vacation time, but we found out lst minute that he had to go to work last weekend and has next weekend off instead. And i will be working:(. Well only Saturday, I took Sunday off, it's our 6th years weding anniversary and we would like to go to Scaramento to have dinner at a nice restaurant.
That's the one thing missing up here, not much of a selection when it comes to going out in general. I do miss all the etnic foods. Thai and japanese are onthe top of my list. We have a decent mexican restaurant here and a Panda Chinese, but that's about it.
there than that I love, love, love being here, have not regreted one day that we moved here. And it's so perfect having alll the land (8 acres) for the boys to run around on.

The home addition is coming along. Only one more inspection! After that we can bust out more wall space for the extra windows I want to have put in. I want floor to ceiling windows as much as I can on all the walls. Once you beome acustomed to waking up every morning to seeing the mountain and nature only, you are hooked. We don't need to draw the curtains or blinds, and no matter what the weather is like, it's always beautiful.

So, once we put in more windows, I will paint the room and then it's time for the hardwood floors. After that we can pretty much move in. There are still things I want to do to give it the finishing touch, but some of it will have to wait. We are broke:)

The painters came out this morning, finally. With all the rain we had we kept postponing over and over. Now, that it's been nice and dry for over a week we are ready to move along.

I need to take more pictures and add them to our home project website. Haven't updated it since November.

As for the adoption, I think I am getting to the point where I just want to chuck it. I seem to be more at peace not having to deal with any of it, or better yet any of the people involved. But then there is still the "What if". Ok, if someone would come and say 'We have a baby/child right here right now for you" I would not hestitate at all, unfortunately things like this don't happen, at least not to us.

Anyone out there?????????? If so please let me know!!

Hey Lady- I am out here!!! Glad to hear te renovatiosns have come so far. please post the link to the photos, I can't seem to find it.

I too am wavering about going forward with adoption or not. I had my 5th and final IVF in January, got pg but lost it quickly.

I just had lap/hysto surgery- too long a story- lots of issues found and fixed. Now I just want some down time to feel human again. Nothin's easy friend.

Heike - I'm here!!!! I might not post all the time, but I do read... And since you haven't made an entry in a while, I must reply. ;)

I've been where you are at regarding whether or not to go forward, not about adoption, but rather IVF. Trying and trying and trying only to be let down time and time again takes a lot out of person, oh how I know that. And it takes a lot to continue to keep going forward and trying to attain what one so deperately wants... But there is a price and sometimes the price is the price of self. I paid that price and it's a hefty price to pay.

Hmmmm...not sure where I am going with this other than rambling on...

((Hugs)) and hope you're doing well.
