Oh, dear. I am WEEPING with laughter.
Check out this blog and the tantalizing cakes therein. I think I’m going to have to look at the passive aggressive cakes for a third time and see if they make me cramp with giggles yet again…
(yes, they did.)
In other news: I actually did the sleep study last night.
I [...]

So, I’d say my blood gets a C+.
I went back to the nurse practitioner and we went over my bloodwork and bone density scan, and it was pretty mediocre.
Bragging rights to Daddy J are floating away in the wind… Buh-bye…
It was certainly a Good Thing that I went for the bloodwork. My bad cholesterol (LDL) [...]

I had the basic layette all bought/given, washed with baby detergent and fabric softener, and folded and laid out on the play table. Clearly, it was time to put it away in the dresser.
Which, after over three years, was still full of Wardie’s clothes.
~~~heart contracts painfully~~~
It made it easier to do when Daddy J and [...]

Having walked through the deep and dim and prickly forest of anti-adoption views (a journey I took all on my own in the past couple of months via teh interwebs) I have emerged tempered and sure and thrilled to my core.
It’s hard to not second-guess yourself and feel doubt when reading very sad and emotional [...]

Which is a very good thing right now. Otherwise, there would probably be an excessive amount of internet sad-adoption-story reading and possibly some obsessive hot gluing/decorating around here.
The charity ball I’m involved in is this weekend. I verified last night that I can in fact get into my dress (eating might not be possible, but [...]

Daddy J’s thirty-eighth birthday is tomorrow, and we went with a group of friends to Morton’s in the Big City to celebrate. It was awesome. We shared a limo on the way up and back, passing around tequila shots, and made up mildly obscene limericks on the way home.
***AND I have a great pic from [...]

The scene: Mama Jamz is driving Rockinrolla to school because he missed the bus.
Mama Jamz: Uhhhhhh, I have to go get bloodwork done this morning.
Rockinrolla: What’s bloodwork?
Mama Jamz: When they take blood from you with a needle and test it for stuff, like high cholesterol.
Rockinrolla: It sounds like a horror movie: Bloodwork, the unrated version. [...]

Just for chuckles, let’s see how many days are left until the due date… hmmm… looks like…
TWENTY FIVE DAYS UNTIL HE MIGHT BE HERE.
THAT’S JUST NOT VERY LONG, PEOPLE.
And we’re plugging on along here.
Sometimes I envy Daddy J for being busy all day at work and not having time to obsess and wory about the baby [...]

The background: Daddy J has been to a real, live general practitioner of his own a couple of times, and has had big ol’ thorough checkups. He recently got his happy report on cholesterol and such, so, go Daddy J.
I, on the other hand, have never had a doctor of my own since I [...]
