I started a new job about a month ago. The money is great but I’m feeling overwhelmed. It’s a temporary position as I’m filling in for a girl going on maternity leave. The supervisor wanted to start training her replacement (me) in January but the hiring hall agency didn’t get around to hiring me until June. So it was a super fast crash course ( Read more... )

My cat Shellie passed away and I have no words for how sad I am. My pets are like my children and I love them with all my heart, so it hurts so bad. The only relief I have is knowing that she had a good life and was a very happy cat. Just as all mom's feel that their children are special, Shellie was really special ( Read more... )

Lately, I've been so overwhelmed. I just feel like I have so much going on right now. I don't do well under pressure so I’m feeling some anxiety. My mother in law and been here for almost a week. That right there is enough to overwhelm anyone, at least my mother in law. And even though I stay on top of all my school work most teachers pile up ( Read more... )

We have saved up some money so now I have to make a decision. Do I want to get hardwood floors or do I want to get a breast lift/implants. Hmm.

I went to get my hair dyed today and chickened out. I did get my hair trimmed though. =p

I'm officially old. For years i've been getting gray hairs here and there but now it's out of control. I started pulling them out but i've given up, I think i'm going to have to dye my hair. I've never dyed my hair before except for a product called Sun In when I was in Jr. High. I don't even know what to ask for when I go in to get dyed and I have ( Read more... )

I never thought the day would come where I start my very own blog. Over the weekend I became obsessed with adoption blogs and I decided to make my very own. I plan to share it with a few friends and family. Warning I get very personal and emotional which I don't really show normally. I think my family will be surprised when they read it and a lot ( Read more... )

Tuesday Paul and I meet with Partners for Adoption, an agency that does the home study process. From there we decided to go with AAC Adoption and Family Network Inc as our adoption agency. We did the pre-application and paid the $25.00 ( Read more... )

As much as I would love to have a surrogate mother from India I just can't bring myself to do it. I'm still torn on if it's taking advantage of the women or helping them out. Plus everything just seems so risky. That being said I have been looking into adoption and i've requested information packets. The whole process seems so confusing, expensive ( Read more... )

I’m torn. Yesterday I learned about how many people are hiring women in India to be their surrogate mothers. It’s only about $30k instead of the American price of $100K+. Part of me wants so badly to accept the fact that these women from India want this just as bad as I do ( Read more... )
