A Barrel of Nelsons

So, I haven’t been saying much lately about adoption stuff. That’s ’cause I haven’t got much to say.
Well that’s not entirely accurate.
I mean I’ve got lots that I could say, but I don’t for whatever reason. There are some topics I leave well enough alone because I’m well aware that I’m not an expert. There’s [...]

So I had this grand scheme of how I was going to post everyday in August, and start it out with a long drawn out series/thingy introduction.
Then I didn’t even look here yesterday.
Oops.
Oh, well, things are so crazy around here anyways, I probably wouldn’t have made it a week.
To review the not-officially-or-even-unofficially-agreed-upon schedule -

This weekend [...]

Okay, I haven’t really been inspired lately, I’ve got half-posts in my head, but not real posts, so I thought I’d give you all an update. And by all I mean the 3 of you that might look here every week or so.

So after the smash, crash, and it’s-a-total-here’s-some-cash deal with the un-named [...]

We saw Hellboy 2 last weekend. Not bad, not over-the-top great. That’s my vote.
I love comic book movies (or at least the concept of them). My dad’s a bit of a comic book geek, without having or spending a bunch of money on it. I remember him watching the cartoons when I was younger… X-Men [...]

So there haven’t been any updates here, mainly because I don’t have anything to tell you. That’s just how it is. I really promise that I’ll give you an update from the Mother’s Day Insanity as soon as I have something to give. Even if I have to be terribly vague and password protect or [...]

So I can’t say that I’m terribly less frustrated than my last post, but I just wanted to say that I’m here still and life does have a sunny side that doesn’t involve pre-meditated assault and battery. (That’s a joke for all of you out there who don’t understand sarcasm.) Also I just somehow magically [...]

Like I mentioned before, I’m starting to ease back into gaming as well as other things. I really do see this as a positive turn.
But it’s got me to thinking.
Way back when I was still pregnant and we were still talking to an agency about possibly placing through them, I can say that gaming was [...]

I’ve been having a tough time recently, not something I’m ready to talk about here, but I could use some humor…
So…
I’m going to treat you to some of the more “interesting” keywords that lead people here.

I”m sure that all [...]

Well, I have to say that I’ve been meaning to sit-down and blog for at least a week, but I just haven’t found the time or the energy. I’ve gone into “Lurker-Mode” on most of the blogs I read, and really it make me said to see myself withdrawing there.
Wedding stress, combined with work stress, [...]

We’re making cookies. Four kinds though two are almost like the same kind with different add-ons.
The two that are alike (ones a Shortbread Cookie with Orange and one’s a Cookie with Cranberries that’s almost Shortbready), Jeff got off some foody blogs that he reads.
We’re making the Thick and Chewy Gingerbread Cookie recipe out of The [...]
