Hello friends! All two of you! It has been such a long little while since I've talked to you. I've been a little bit busy getting a divorce and trying hard to keep my job while doing so. Whew! That's a lot of work ( Read more... )

But they are strappy sandals, and fully adjustable, so I figured what the hell?! I'll wear three inch heels on my half-mile walk to the train, stand up the whole way on the train and then ( Read more... )

So we're starting to work on saving money toward having a baby in the next few years. If we save $250 a month (no easy feat), we can start with in vitro and donated sperm and whatnot in a little over a year. Scary and exciting! We also need to save aproximately $333/month for Jack to have surgery before we have a baby... which is part of why we ( Read more... )
