Seriously?

I spent a couple hours on Saturday with some good friends. We had no children with us and decided that a trip to the craft store was in order.

While driving (I live 5 miles out of town) our conversation progressed to the financial shortages we face and then to the option of donating plasma to buy groceries, pay bills, and spend at the craft store!

One of my friends has considered it seriously enough to find out that she does not weigh enough. The other commented that she was concerned she would be ineligible because of her weight as well.

You see, to donate plasma one must weigh 110 lbs.

I can't decide if I need to lose weight...or find chubbier friends...

Jumpin' In

It was bound to happen sooner or later. I am adding a blog; this time a PUBLIC blog! I have blogged for years on a private blog; chronicling the ups and downs and twists and turns of a somewhat messy and dramatic adoption. I have had lots to say, but not lots to share with the world. It was important that it stayed in a nice little private bundle.

But today - I'm jumpin' in.

I'm joining the throngs of gals who blog their everyday happenings, their successes and failures, their tasty recipes, and the entertaining things that their children do. I am not sure if anyone will read; but that doesn't matter much. I am excited to connect with people that I have read and admired for years. Here goes nothing...
