Snow days and miscellaneous--again

Didn't go to school today, even to put in an extended day. I chose to be lazy, if that's what you call doing laundry, fixing lunch and supper, and doing other various and sundry items around the house.

I've been checking the listserv a lot today to see what rumors are out there. We who are adopting from ANY country THRIVE on rumors--good or bad. Today we got a bad one: expect only the rest of August and the first half of September DTC folks to get referrals. No one knows if that is the case (hence the "rumor" denotation), but that's what is going around in the circles. I for one am waiting to hear that ALL of September is on the way out and it may include some OCTOBER folks as well...

I will dream. No one can stop me. But darn, I have to get her room ready. For the past several months I've seen us at Brett's graduation with our little one on our laps. If it doesn't happen that way, we won't die, but it sure would be nice.

Had a dream last week that I got the call from Lillian: "Carolyn, you have a son. What would you like to do?" I have since learned that at least one couple has gone back to the hotel with their "daughter" only to find "a little extra" when they changed "her" diaper. That couple accepted it well. I wonder what I would do. As I've said so many times, I love my boys, but oh, boy, do I want a girl!
