Just a brief check in..
Laura and I are still around, still waiting, and still wondering if the process will ever speed up.
In the meantime, we are pursuing other adventures. We figure that instead of watching the web for news, and counting the ticks on the clock that we would do some of the things that we won’t be as able to do when we have a little one in our lives.
I have taken back to writing again, although I am still a little gun shy about digging up the old novel to get that going again, but I found a great site that lets me exercise my writing in small bursts. It is called [ Ficlets ] and it limits you to writing a 1046 character story. You can add prequels or sequels to your stories, as can other ficlet authors, which makes for some interesting stories.
I have also become a full-fledged blogger over at [ For the Love of Geeks ]. It is quickly becoming a highly trafficked site and a full-time job in itself.
We will be in Palm Springs this next weekend (Fourth of July), soaking in the sun, and relaxing by the pool.
Laura is pursuing a career in crafts, and doing her volunteer work , she is in marathon mode for that this summer, so I doubt I will see much of her during the day.
So that is pretty much it for the time being …
Hopefully news will come soon

I sympathize with you. I know the wait must be extremely painful. Hopefully, you will hear news soon.

I know how you feel. It took me it seems like years to go through the adoption process, and I was adopting my boyfriend’s child, and it’s taking forever.
The only blessing was that the paperwork was easy. I went through myadoptionforms.com, and it was so smooth. I hope that the process will soon be over.

I agree with Lori: the process is tough. I, too, went through myadoptionforms.com and that made the process a little easier, but only because the paperwork was done.
It still doesn’t compensate for the fact that you’re still waiting. I wish that the adoption process was easier.

I realize this is an older post, I just had to say that I hope the process did speed up for you. Adoption is such an emotional rollercoaster, its hurry up and wait, then wait some more…. So hard to live like that on a daily basis.
I checked out that site listed above, my husband and I decided to go through them for our adoption. Thank you very much for the info — we really appreciate it.
God bless,
Pamela
