Hello?

Ok. I know. I'm not really a blogger anymore. I've let all three of you down. Two? Anyone? Buehler? I've been off in my own little world which includes at least four poopies a day (sometimes an extra couple, no names, Nic, I promise), lots of organic faux "Cheerios," and complex decision making, like, oil-rubbed bronze versus brushed nickel, and dual flush toilets or just low flow with cistern graywater. FYI: ORB and dual flush. Cisterns can get pricey. And Craftsman bungalow and oil-rubbed bronze just seem to go together, don't you think?

The "green" house is coming along s-l-o-w-l-y. I hear they finally poured the foundation floor today. Everything is ready to go up. Pre-assembled (less waste) walls sitting in the lumberyard, windows should be delivered any day, roof trusses sitting stacked at the jobsite. Etc. Etc. Building a house should be kind of fun, but when all decisons and errands have to done on the odd Wednesday that my mom takes the girls, around orthodontist appointments (going on four years! Woo!) it kind of takes on the aura of a chore. I just want to get in already.

Nothing to report on the next donor egg attempt, except that we are postponing until April-May 2009. I know. That's a long way off. It made more sense that we should get moved into the new house and settle a little, first. You know, hang curtains and what not. Plus, D is taking three weeks off when his current project wraps up by then, so he will be available for full-time twin care with my mom to help. The off-season will just begin in South Africa, so travel costs will be down, too, for the couple of weeks that I will have to be there. I think I was sort of rushing it, because psychologically having a baby at 42 (its always a number, isn't it?) sounded better that 43. Whatever. We all know it may not even work. Not like I've had the ute checked out in over a year. Could be fibroid city down there, by now.

Anyway, what does an infertile blog about when she is now a mom, not cycling any time soon. Are you tired of hearing mommy stuff? I still read the blogs of infertiles-turned-moms, but maybe that's just me. I've got a lot to talk about and time to write it down, but I feel like maybe there isn't much interest. Maybe I'll try putting it out there as it comes to me, and judging by hits, keep going. Or not. I kind of feel my voice coming back and less of the diary narrative. I may start blogging about any old thing.

Gotta go. Sick babies mean shorter naps around here.

I'm always interested and wished you blogged more. I'm also hoping we can hang out in the spring. This winter has been sick, literally, for all of us. Constant runny noses, etc, and I don't believe in passing along the love. Hopefully we can talk soon.

I may not always comment, but I do always read. I read through bloglines though so unless I click through to leave a comment, I won't show up in the stats.

Wow, D really has long projects! All your reasons sound eminently sensible. Still reading, I'm not going anywhere.

[moo]

I'm always here sister. Keep posting.

[Roni]

Hey you, I'm still listening!!! Post when you can, and live your life in the meantime. We all understand:)

House project sounds cool!!

[Pamplemousse]

We want more house projects stuff!! Keep on going....still here.

I'm still here- or newly here anyway. I only started reading in the last few months or so. I know, stupid me, I missed all the excitement. Anyway, my twins are almost exactly six months younger than yours, so I like hearing about what they are up to. And I'm very curious about the green house. We just built a house, but alas, didn't have it together enough to insist on all things green. But we combined 2 households (my mom's & ours) into one, so maybe we get points for reducing our carbon footprint? :)

Sorry. Results! Why, man, I have gotten a lot of results. I know several thousand things that won't work. Help me! It has to find sites on the: Window air conditioners for sale. I found only this - ventless air conditioners. We also have a wide selection of eyes, makeup accessories products online at. Providing canada with more than the product for over years. Thank you very much :o. Shaine from Austria.
