Good Morning,
Nothing really new to report. Last night I was scrapbooking like crazy. (I just finished our wedding book and now am starting on trips and stuff like that) I got some new paper yesterday and that was very exciting!!! (I know I'm a freak. LOL)
It's Thanksgiving this weekend (in Canada) so a big family get-together. That'll be nice. I have to make perogies so that'll take all day Saturday. It's such a big job but worth it.
I have to go to a funeral today. I hate funerals (I guess nobody likes them). A friend from my teens commited suicide. Suicide is so hard to deal with. When I was 14 another friend did the same and I still have trouble with it. You just never understand, and you're questions are never answered but it's hard to stop asking. I just don't know what could be so bad that you have to take your own life. I don't know because I've never had to negotiate life with myself. I've just always known that it'll all be worth it in the end and the bad times will pass.
Anyway, that's a little to depressing for this early in the morning. So I'll tell you a little story that made me happy: When Erin's social worker phoned me to see if we were going to proceed with the adoption and I told her that we had decided not to, this is what she said: "I'm sad that I won't be working with you because you and Stacey are a great couple and I know that you will make great parents. I was impressed with you guys and wanted you to know that you presented yourselves very well in the meetings and asked all the right questions. The next social worker you have will be lucky to work with you."
I thought that was very nice and it was nice to hear at such a tough time, it lightened things up a little.
Well after this depressing post, I hope everybody can still have a good day.
Stacy
