So, here goes!
Listening
My husband and I are obsessed with the show "The Pitch" on Netlfix all of the sudden. It's about two major marketing companies making pitches to major businesses and corporations to win their business.
Basically, it's another reality show. However, at least after watching this one, you don't walk about feeling dumber than you did when you started. Believe me - I know. I watch plenty of dumb reality television that will suck your brains out and flush them down the toilet. Let's be honest, those are equally as awesome.
Loving
My husband and I have been waiting for 3 1/2 years to adopt a baby from Ethiopia. Because of the major slow down in international adoptions from Ethiopia the past 3 years, our social worker suggested while we wait for that sweet baby, we start a domestic adoption.
So, after waiting for 6 months, we were matched with a baby boy that will be born in 8 days...1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8...EIGHT days! Crazy exciting! We can NOT wait.
Thinking
So in order to keep myself from going coo-coo crazy waiting for these 8 days to pass by quickly, I need to finish these next 5 things. More close reading, Patriot Day resource, History Mysteries, writing mini-offices...I may have carpal tunnel. Already.
Wanting
My husband and I live in New Orleans and I am obsessed with Cafe Au Laits from Cafe Du Monde. They magical deliciousness in each cup. Holy moly. Delish.
Needing
A GIANT chill pill.
(This may or may NOT need to be explained.)
New baby - 8 days.
Adoption.
Waiting.
Paperwork.
Court.
Life changing.
Love.
Excitement.
Anxiety.
Packing.
Flying.
Family.
BABY. <3
Last night, I LITERALLY was drinking chamomile tea will applying lavender essential oil to the back of my ears and my temple. Nothing.
Hence - giant chill pill.
Suggestions?
3 Trips
Utah - That's where we will go and get our sweet baby boy.
Ireland - I've been obsessed with Ireland since I was in 8th grade. I will go one day. I MUST go one day.
The house in "The Holiday" in Surrey, England - That sounds like a magical place to be right. about. now.
So, that's all. I'm off to finish one of the 5 TpT packets. And drink more chamomile tea. ;)
Until then,

I love that movie. I'd love to go there too. We went to England and it was awesome- so different than the states. Good luck with the adoption and try to get some rest before that is impossible. :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the upcoming birth of your little one. A chill pill wouldn't begin to be enough if I had all that on my plate with school starting. Hope all goes well with your adoption.
ReplyDeleteYou are a saint, in my eyes, for getting anything accomplished while waiting on your precious baby boy! I had to wait a month before picking up my Golden Retriever puppy last year, and I was the most unproductive person counting down the days. That is seriously so exciting! Congratulations, and good luck with your bundle of joy!
