Since my last post........

Since it's been such a long ass time since I have updated you I'll skim the last month of activity.
1. We did in fact get our 171. I was in Grand Junction when Frenchie called me to give the good news. The funny thing is that I had been crying like a baby to the girls about it just a half hour before he called. We are waiting for Frenchie's BC to come back from yet another stop. The good news is that CCAI did take what we had of our dossier to start critical review. We'll be DTC and LID before we know it.
2. My trip to Grand Junction was good. I got to play with the Z's and my Belly. Oh, I also got to spend a few hours with my cute little Russian. I do have to admit that I would rather eat my shoe than work over there. It is such a battle zone. Those people (because it's not just the girls)are some times hard to figure out. You really have no idea if someone is your best friend or worst enemy. It's the craziest thing. It made me realize that I may feel a little lonely over here at work from time to time but at least there is not the drama.
3. My trip to Seattle was good, but strained at the same time. The good news is that A and I got to know Nate better. We really like him a lot now. He's a sharp one. I really dig the way that he handled all of the loudness that takes place when the family gets together. I'm really excited that he'll be my BIL soon. I can't help but to think of what great guys the three of us have landed. Frenchie is the best thing to ever happen to me. I have a new found adoration of Nate. And we all know that I want to adopt Steve. N wasn't exactly thrilled with us. It was just hard to go all that way up there for her and feel like she wished we were different. Her shower went well, but attendance was sad. She never said anything about it. My hope is that she was happy with what was planned for her. I really did put my heart into it. I was completely devastated that there weren't more people to be at the party with her. The last day of the trip was Mother's Day. It was so hard. I was proud that I never cried once. I did get teary a couple of times, but that doesn't really count. At least that horrible day is over and I don't have to think about it for an entire year. Frenchie never gets too down about Father's Day. It's really impressive.
4. I spent the rest of my time off just kicking back. Frenchie left for business as soon as I got home. I had plenty of time to veg. There were several days that I didn't even up on make up. That right there is huge for me. I rented the first season of Lost. That was a huge mistake because now I am hooked. I want the second season to come out like now so that I can start with the first runs next season. Yummy boys that take their shirts off a lot is really the kind of television that I like.
5. My girlfriend Stacy had her second little girl this week. Don't just my spelling, but her name is Baiyler. My cousin Caren had her forth baby a couple of days after. His name is either Colton (or maybe it was Clayton, but I really think Colton).
