Klondike Kate's Space: Water Park Weekend
http://klondikekateblog.blogspot.com/2009/03/water-park-weekend.html
Sunday, March 08, 2009. Our weekend water park get away was great. The drive into Idaho took me into new territory – I’d never been past Spokane. The hills and Coeur d’Alene lake were really beautiful. Since I started the weekend on the verge of a nervous breakdown, we got on the road about 1pm after a nice and slow morning and arrived around 4pm. Silver Mountain is everything a ski resort should be – fireplaces, dark wood trims, picturesque setting… very nice. Unfortunately for us a blizzard blew in tha...

Klondike Kate's Space: Absorbing Pain
http://klondikekateblog.blogspot.com/2009/02/absorbing-pain.html
Wednesday, February 04, 2009. So AJ had her braces adjusted today. Well, for the first time, she's also feeling the wire poke at the back of her cheeks a bit. The orthodontist office gave us two care kits that included wax for just such an occasion when the braces were first put on. Needless to say, AJ can't find the kits or the wax. I'm giving the dog an emergency bath (don't know what she got into but it reeked! So I cut one in half and put it up there. It was bleechh! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Klondike Kate's Space: September 2008
http://klondikekateblog.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 22, 2008. Real Estate - funny post. So I'm thinking about buying a house sometime in the future. I'm checking out websites and came across this. I thought it was hysterical! Since I live in the area of these underground silos maybe I should check it out! Saturday, September 20, 2008. It's been 6 weeks now and I just didn't feel like writing before this. AJ and I were at the Oregon coast for a mini vacation with Grandma and Grandpa when Seby finally succumbed to his health issues. It was...

Klondike Kate's Space: April 2008
http://klondikekateblog.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 12, 2008. We met with our adoption worker Erin this week. I have a bunch of paperwork today but she's met AJ and I've done my fingerprint check so we're on our way! When I became a foster parent I had to be fingerprinted and checked. Now that I'm adopting a child out of foster care, I have to get fingerprinted and checked again! That doesn't make any sense to me! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Klondike Kate's Space: December 2008
http://klondikekateblog.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 07, 2008. Just a general post. OK - so the amazing thought of posting twice a month didn't quite happen. not like my faithful readers were surprised! Christmas deco is up and the house is looking quite festive! And got to meet their great extended family including Lisa. AJ is doing well at the moment. She seems to have backed off from the stealing and is actually doing really well with the restrictions at home and school. I'm enjoying the lack of drama but also holding my breath ...Paren...

Klondike Kate's Space: November 2008
http://klondikekateblog.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 14, 2008. My dear friend Jenn keeps gently reminded I have not posted in a long while. I am so completely overwhelmed with life at the moment I don't even know what to share. So I thought I'd do the Simple Woman meme that Jenn's started doing. I might even post twice in a month! It's dark. it's not Alaska but the change to winter is noticable. It was a very pretty fall day. I love bright red fall leaves! I want a nap! I am thankful for. Wire and bead creations for friends for Christmas.

Thursday, March 27, 2008. Adoptive Mom to Be! Well, it's finally happening! The adoption worker from the state talked with me today. We set up our first meeting for Monday! This is really good news since AJ had a really bad visit with her birth mom yesterday. Her mom hasn't seen AJ in 6 months and she comes to the visit drunk. Amazing. On the one hand I'm calloused and angered by the birth mom's actions. On the other hand, I realize what a powerful hold alcohol has on this woman's life. And stole the con...

http://klondikekateblog.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 01, 2008. My wonderful friend Jan. Took pictures today of the adoption festivities. Here're a few highlights! The limo at our apartment this morning. Boy did we create a stir for the neighbors! The limo is done in a racing theme complete with model racing cars in display boxes on the bar, 4 TV screens, sattelite radio - it was deluxe! My parents, AJ and I before the adoption. The mother/daughter twin look was at AJ's request. AJ and I and our wonderful Judge. I have officially adopted AJ!
