A Heartworming Cloud Pleaser. Atta boy, Luther! 8220;You drive me crazy! February 4, 2011 by slurredpress. That was the only phrase the “man” in the red shirt could utter in English that crucial, balmy Venice evening (er, morning) back in the summer of ’02. I still don’t know if those words rang true or if he was just a behind the times Fine Young Cannibals. Fan For whatever reason I decided to leave my virginity with that… Angel. I think this quote from a friend sums it all up quite nicely:. You are com...

Barren Babe: Post-Op Days
http://barrenbabe.blogspot.com/2012/07/post-op-days.html
Surviving in a baby-obsessed world with courage, dignity, and style. Thursday, July 19, 2012. Today marks day 16 since my surgery, and I am feeling good. Yesterday I wore capris that had a zipper and waistband - which is a big deal since I've been hanging out in loose fitting shorts, stretchy jersey skirts, and flowing sundresses for two weeks. Today I feel like myself again. When did a hospital become a loud-talking place? Finally I feel good again. Going out for sushi with an old friend (who is als...

Barren Babe: February 2013
http://barrenbabe.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Surviving in a baby-obsessed world with courage, dignity, and style. Tuesday, February 5, 2013. We are getting ready to adopt a 17 month old boy from Vietnam at the end of this month. Life is crazy right now. It was the end of October when we received a referral to adopt a 13 month old boy with a minor correctable medical condition (he has a hernia). Wow!

Barren Babe: September 2011
http://barrenbabe.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Surviving in a baby-obsessed world with courage, dignity, and style. Thursday, September 1, 2011. Not The Chosen Ones. Three weeks ago DH came home from work and informed me that he had heard back from the adoption agency we had signed up with in July. Our profile had been presented, but the teenage girl and her boyfriend chose another couple as adoptive parents for their baby. Wow. Three weeks later I still feel a sting.

Barren Babe: October 2011
http://barrenbabe.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Surviving in a baby-obsessed world with courage, dignity, and style. Friday, October 28, 2011. October is the month we were married. With each anniversary comes celebration, but it also highlights what is not there and the years we have been busy trying to create a family. In nine years I truly thought we would have at least two children, but it is what it is. We have each other and we are closer than I ever thought we would be on our wedding day in 2002.

When intentions pounce | Another Door
https://anotherdoor.wordpress.com/2013/12/01/when-intentions-pounce
What happens when one door closes…. Intentions evaluation 2013 →. December 1, 2013. Okay I’m back for a bit. Something very upsetting happened at work just before Thanksgiving– nothing that’s a crisis. I still have a job. I am not being harassed, or asked to do anything that goes against my moral convictions. But it’s very upsetting, as I’ll explain below. I’ve been alternating wildly between deep sadness, self-doubt, rage, desire for vengeance (really — yikes! For 2013 included this:. 2) Find a new job.

Barren Babe: April 2012
http://barrenbabe.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Surviving in a baby-obsessed world with courage, dignity, and style. Wednesday, April 18, 2012. April is the Cruellest Month. It's funny how life can be smooth and quiet for months and then everything seems to happen at once. By the Ontario Health Insurance Plan). This afternoon I was searching the internet for ovarian cancer and I am scared because I have some of the symptoms, although they are quite vague: fatigue, bloating, abdominal/pelvic pain. I am trying to remain calm, but inside I am freakin...

Barren Babe: Cleaning Therapy & Olympic Days
http://barrenbabe.blogspot.com/2012/07/cleaning-therapy-olympic-days.html
Surviving in a baby-obsessed world with courage, dignity, and style. Friday, July 27, 2012. Cleaning Therapy and Olympic Days. My bad day has been swept away thanks to some good old-fashioned cleaning therapy. Nothing like cleaning and tidying to make one feel happy. Not only does it brighten your outlook it also makes your living space look great. What a spectacle that opening ceremony was. What did you think of it? I was really moved by the moment of stillness for WWI. July 28, 2012 at 10:58 AM. What у...

Barren Babe: August 2011
http://barrenbabe.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Surviving in a baby-obsessed world with courage, dignity, and style. Thursday, August 11, 2011. Dinner last Saturday went well. While drinking a glass of red wine I decided to reveal our adoption plans. Actually I was asked what I had been up to these days and asked DH if I should tell them about our 'project', and then I told them we are thinking of adopting. And I must go through the whole process over and over again. Thursday, August 4, 2011. To Know or Not to Know. Motherhood in your 40s. Surviving i...

Barren Babe: February 2012
http://barrenbabe.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Surviving in a baby-obsessed world with courage, dignity, and style. Wednesday, February 1, 2012. Another Day, Another Ultrasound. This morning I went for another ultrasound. The doctor wants to see if there has been any change in the cyst, and perhaps to get alternate views. I had complained to her about my experience at the other place, so she sent the requisition to a local hospital with a Women's Health Division. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Sex and the City.
