Wow, I got NUTHIN'!
I realize it has been a really long time, once again since my last post....and most of my posts start with an apology about that. Well, no more. When I have something to say, I will post it. Right now, I just don't' feel like talking about how long the wait is taking. Sure, I've got things going on here, but since this is not a work blog or necessarily a house renovation blog I just don't have a lot going on in the adoption world right now. Things are unfortunately quiet. Other than the fact that I don't think I have officially congratulated my friend Em yet on here about the referral of her beautiful Lulu recently. Yay, finally!! (Of course I have officially congratulated her in real life!!) She knows how thrilled I am for her! :)
Let's see, we moved our offices--so I guess I changed jobs, technically--even though I am still working with the same people doing the same thing (only it's just the 8 of us now)--just under our beloved company banner again. That is a good thing--no more cube world and much more conducive to bringing buttercup to the office if the need arises. I did actually talk them into converting the almost three weeks personal time I had built up for travel at the former company into a leave package so I wouldn't lose it--that is definitely good. I heart my little company. They are trying to do what they can to help and are truly interested in getting little buttercup home. Now I just have to see what I have to do about updating our home study for this little job change....
The house progress continues slowly.......I can't see the light at the end yet.......but hopefully we will turn the corner soon.
All the news I've got in the world of adoption is that we are hanging at #6 on the list at the moment with, as always, the promise of a group of impending referrals that may include buttercup. But I am trying to be guarded about that--even though my non-rational side is so excited at the thought!--I don't want to be disappointed. Things in IA do not seem to ever go as you think they will.
Well, I guess I did have a little to say :) Ta-ta for now!

#6 is great! I'm sure it can't be too much longer with only 5 families ahead of you. I'll be hoping your referral comes this month.
Oh...I can so relate to having times when you just don't want to talk about how long the wait is taking. I hope this part of the wait is over for you in the coming weeks!
Good god, I hope they actually get referrals moving. It is killing me that is has been so long. I am tired of it for you. (you know that!).
Great about the leave. Getting there with the house!
I just hope referrals start moving along!
lulu is ready for you buttercup. MAYBE the next post will be THE POST!!!
