Can't sleep....must blog...

Holy Cow, it's 3 in the morning and I'm having dreams of hot tubs and tie-dying t-shirts with Julia Roberts (who is very pregnant and made the cutest shirt with hand prints over her very large belly) and someone else who i think is Kathy over at Waiting for Chani. (Hi Kathy!) I'm too tired to make a link right now. It's a bit of work with my browser, what with going to find the html code and all. Of course, by the time I typed all this, I could have gone and found it.....oh, bother. I told you it was late.

The hot tub dreams are because we bought one today. A really nice one. I'm very happy about it, really. But when we got home we realized it wouldn't fit thru our door like we thought. It's going in the sunroom. So Jeff started removing door trim and the jam. I'm still worried about the opening. We'll have to have a handyman come and fix what Jeff will do to get it in. Then, of course, we need an electrician for a 220 outlet out there. Our current dinky hot tub was just fine on 110.

I know what you're thinking... "Georgia, how can you justify the expense of a new super-awsome, mac-daddy, hot tub, when a)you already have one, and b) you're suppose to be saving for this China trip?" Well, let me tell you! Our current one is really not much more than a heated kiddie pool. But we still used it daily all fall/winter. So we KNOW this one will get used even more. We can use it all Summer, too, since the temps can go lower. Also, it should last forever since it will be inside (if we can make the opening big enough, that is.) And as far as the cost.....we've been considering vegetarianism for quite some time, you see. Lots of spaghetti and ramen in our future, Amen.

I still can't explain dreaming about Julia Roberts or the tie-dying, which I have never done.


Oh, and while I'm up, I should talk about the adoption stuff!! Referrals are coming and they're for 3x's the number of days we were thinking they would be for. Although it's still not that much, when you're expecting really horrid news, and only mildly bad news shows up, you think it's practically miraculous!

And this effects (affects?) us how? Well, I'm proud to say I haven't pushed back our expected time line. (and that's saying somthing) I have a good feeling about October, with late November travel. Could be a month earlier, could be a month later, but I think a December referral is out of the picture and that makes me pretty darn happy.

Anything else I can talk about while I'm here?.....hmmmm.... not so much. So Good night! Tomorrow I'll take some pictures of my new improved doorway Jeff's making for the hot tub.

Oh, okay let me go rustle up a link for hot tub. It's big enough for company, so if you won't laugh at me in a bathing suit and you bring the Corona, consider yourself invited!

The new baby.
