The other night I took a fall. I was in the kitchen on my bare feet one minute and on my arse the next. How it happened is still a mystery, something on the floor & I slipped, got dizzy and lost my balance? All I know is both of my arms are bruise beyond belief & I took another 10years off of Stew-Be's life. He swears I am slowly trying to kill him,LOL, this being the 2nd time in our marriage that I gave him such a fright(1st time was in June & then phone call that I was being taken to the ER). This is another case of it looks worst then it feels.
Also on a Happier?Better? note We marked another month off of our wait and are Another Step Closer to our dreams.

The fundraiser was a huge success, raising Five thousand dollars for research. There was great food cook cooked by her grandmother and friends, Over 100 raffles and a 50/50. One basket was a "Lobster Basket" (lobster pot, sauces, pasta, bibs & a 50 gift certificate to a local seafood place) All proceeds of this basket when to Taylor's parents to help with all her co pays. Usually I'm not very lucky but Andrew & I won 2 raffles, a bucket full of car wash stuff & a free oil change and the second one was a hair care one, full of samples of high end hair products plus a $25. gift card to the salon.
Today marks our 28 month being logged into China. I didn't realized it was even here till I checked on one of my fellow waiting families and saw their blog marking the 28 month marker.

Full week of work this week and the weather has been hot hot hot. We have a small blow up pool that the kids & Uncle Andrew love. This week besides the regular cast of charterers(Sarola, Fianna, Seamus, Tommy & Kenzie) that I watch during the day we had two extra rug rats (Taylor & Sammie) hanging with us & their grandma (My friend for the last 32years). So after a few hours in the pool, everyone got out, Kenzie went for a nap and the other 6 sun bathed. So my Three words for this Sunday are.....LAZY SUMMER DAYS.
When Andrew got home from work, he put on his shorts and hung out in the pool for about 90 minutes to cool off from the hot day.

Wow I can't believe that is already the 22nd of August. Seriously where is the time going.. Our summer has been a whirl wind between work, me getting C.M P. (still not 100%) running upstate to check on Andrews parents after Pops surgery,painting the bathroom , living room, entryway & stairs, a family reunion( Celebrating Andrew's Aunts 50th yr of being a nun), our annual block party with this years theme of Pete's (my father in law's)70th birthday, last week running to Maryland for Matthews outstanding performance & this weekend we have a fundraiser for my girlfriends granddaughter. I'm tired just writing that all. No wonder I haven't had a chance to blog much. Below are a the slides show I threw together of our events
The Family Gathering in Glasco NY
Our 2009 Block party
Sum of my redecorating. I love wallwords. I put strong words up our stairs, an italian saying in my kitchen,one over our front door & around a picture of my mom,2 sisters and me I put the words Live Love Laugh.

We are outlaw bound this weekend.Heading Maryland way to see my nephew & godson in a production of Urinetown. Matthew has had parts in Aladdin, West Side Story & Damm Yankees to name a few but this is the first time he has gotten the lead. Andrew, myself & three of my rug rats will be there for what promises to be an excellent show.
Meatball, we are so proud of you. Remember if you have Faith, Luck & Talent. you can achieve anything you set your mind to. Break a leg Meatball!

I luv three word Sundays and I missed them since they stopped. They started back up again last week and of Course I forgot to post my three words( my memory is shot, I am blaming it on the Carb*n M*noxide Pois*ning but Stew-be says its just old age).I would of forgotten again but while on FB this morning I saw a reminder about T.W.S and quickly threw this together
I luv this picture of Andrew. It was taken a few months back @ a party. This man, the one I call my husband, my best friend, my Stew-Be . I tease him about his Lack of maturity and his easy going good nature heart but when things are heading south he is the one I want in my corner, having my back, holding my hand and just loving me. Thru the death of both of my parent, the renovation of our house, this roller coaster of a ride called international adoption, cleaning out my mom's apt and the day to day stuff he is always a rock for me. So my three works this Sunday are....
ALWAYS MY HERO
