I was going to say I'm also making a brandy slush, heavy on the brandy!!

[lmitchem]

Mandy,

You know I'll join you!! It would help if PGN picked up some. But it would just be awesome if we would get our preapproval...lets say, tomorrow!!!!

Hugs,
Lisa

I have cried for the past two weeks b/c the wait is so hard for me. I understand. Praying for you!

[merkley3]

Hi Mandy,
count me in! This waiting is something I have NEVER had to deal with and I am not very good at it. We all need our children home- Please, Please, Please... someone stop this torture.
I am with ya,
Mary

Count me IN! I'll bring the chocolate for you and a bottle of red wine for me. Still waiting to enter FC, just got word from the agency today that they are having a problem getting DNA auth b/c they are waiting on "birth certification update for the birth mom". GRRR, I honestly don't know how I'm going to make it through this entire process!

I am here for the pitty party too... In between getting dinner ready and chasing Memo as he bolts out the door without telling me where he is going..
My favorite pitty foods are cheeze its, ice cream sandwiches and WINE!!!! maybe not all together at the same moment.... LOL HUGS honey, I feel your pain....

[pvanabel]

Hang in there Mandy and everyone else...but a little ice cream can cure the blues, so does therapy shopping!!!

[LMG]

Can I come to the pity party too? I'm going to bring a bottle of wine...and drink it all myself!!!

Today marks one year since our referral and I want my son home!!!

[bamagirl]

I'll join too - my part of the pity party is a bit different though. I want so badly to go back and adopt a little girl but I know that financially we could not afford it. Maybe one day the door will open for my little girl....until then I'll just hug my boys a little tighter!!

By the way, I'll bring the oreos and milk!!!

Well .. I don't know how much of a pity party this is.. But... Today my sister needed to borrow my car so she could get to her doctors appointment. So I had go to in my husbands work van (gross-a-rama) to try and make it to the notary AND to the post office. Made it to the notary, but then we got stuck in down pours, to the point we could not see the road. Yikes. So we go home, run in... It clears up 30 mins later. Ok, perfecto. The p.o closes at 4.... well we try our hardest to make it there, but they closed the back road. We only had 3 mins to make it through traffic.. Which was not happening! So we came home, my husband says LETS GO! We had to go to another town to send down our Embassy letter, plus a package for our girl, and send in some updated info. Aye aye aye! At least it is sent though....

I hope you are in and out of PGN quick!

[ej-momtobe]

I WANT OUT OF PGN!! I WANT MY BABY TO COME HOME NOW! I WANT PEOPLE TO STOP ASKING ME WHY IT TAKES SO LONG!! I WANT PEOPLE TO STOP ASKING ME WHY I AM NOT ADOPTING FROM RUSSIA INSTAED!!!

(sorry for the shouting, I get that way when I have had too many martinis)

[nykrissy]

Count me in too please..if there is still room!!! There is an awful lot of people at this party!!! I think that I will bring some Key Lime martinis for everyone...yummy!!!! We all just need to hang on and keep the faith!!!!

[devildogwife]

You know what always makes me feel better? Godiva cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory. That's the one thing I do like about California. I hope you're doing better.

[chriscinger]

I'm having a pity party, too. My husband left today for a month long business trip to Asia. And I keep hoping we will hear this week that we are out of PGN. I cheated on my diet this afternoon by eating massive quantities of corn chips. But, oh, Brie, a Mocha Moolatte! I think that would really make me feel better!

[devildogwife]

chriscinger- I know how you feel with your husband leaving. Mine is soon leaving for a very long deployment to the middle east. It's not a great feeling and I have to say I've cheated on my diet too. Oh well.
