The Release

I spoke with my attorney this morning and I am officially legally released of my contract. It has been over SEVEN weeks since the cancelled transfer. I was sad by the news but I sort of knew in my heart that would be the outcome. So this week I have the task of meeting 2 new sets of IPs this week. From their brief description, I'm thrilled to meet both, and I'm hoping that there is a connection with one of them. This will be very tough if there is a connection with both... But my excitement is back and I'm so eager to begin again

Milestone 6 Months

It's pretty amazing that just over 6 months ago I was calling my adoption/surrogacy attorney's office for the first time. The time seemed to be going by so slow, but it's been 6 months... HALF A YEAR ALREADY!! My days seem to be going by slowly still, but I have taken on the challenge or making something pretty cute for a lady in my Fertility Family. I'm waiting for the rest of the starting supplies to come in the mail. It's a super exciting project for me and for sure will keep me busy.

It's been a week since I last talked to someone at the attorney's office. I was hoping to have a call by today but no such luck. I think I will wait until Friday before I call them. It seems like every time I call, I'm thinking "just another week", "it won't be too much longer", "they have to be close to knowing what they want to do by now".... only to get the "no news" card. I'm at the point of sort of feeling defeated. I was so optimistic and happy and so beyond ready for each and every next step (minus that dreadful PIO needle that I quickly learned wasn't too bad once I iced the area and warmed the PIO needle first). But at this point, I'm losing steam. I'm hoping that by keeping busy I will unexpectedly get a call with some sort of news. I guess we will just need to see what is in store for me on Friday when I make yet another call to the attorney's office to get more info on where we are at.

This week marks 5 whole weeks of no contact at all from IM. Seems to me that a decision has been made already.... just an observation....
