Good Morning!

Lisa,

I know that you are getting tons of advice and input, and you have probably gone to bed, but...

I had severe endometriosis, very different from cancer and chemo, but I was told that I would need to have an endometrial ablation and that it would be equivelent to sterility. Since my life had been put on hold because of the illness, I opted to have the surgery and put my trust in God that this was the right thing to do and to get my life on track. I was 32. The original physician wanted me to have a hysterectomy, so this option was less invasive and I was able to keep my ovaries.

The surgery was a success and my not-quite-husband and I decided that if we wanted kids we would adopt. But fate had something else in mind, and 6 months later I was pregnant with my one in a billion (yes, billion according to the doctor) child. They weren't sure if I would be able to go to term because the egg did not have anything to grow in, but she built her own lining as she went. Somethings are just meant to be!

I often tell friends that are trying and are paying tons of money on "science" to trust in their faith and adopt a child. They will probably end up pregnant when they relax and aren't trying. Just my own opinion, I tend to be a bit opinionated, in case you haven't noticed. I appologize in advance if I have offended anyone!

Great Story!

I have just watched most of the DCL DVD that someone kindly sent for me to see.

It is fab!! Just one thing, I see no overweight people at all on that cruise! Got some serious work to do.

Ok, I know it was a promotional DVD but just one large person would have been nice.

Obviously was NOT shot on our cruise!

I am not sure it was filmed on anyone's cruise!!! Nobody around apart from the groups of happy smiley THIN people!!! Loved the DVD though.

Angel......we are NOT going to be the overweight ones on the cruise!!!

How awesome is this story!!! God is so good!! He really wrapped his arms tight around your family!! I saw you calling your child one in a billion earlier in the thread and I wondered. Tell us about your little girl (is she still little??) I bet she is an ANGEL!!! God had a special hand in making her!!

Hey look! I hit 1,000 posts and didn't notice! yay!

I made a big deal at 1,000 posts ... Took me 5 years!!!

I am not sure it was filmed on anyone's cruise!!! Nobody around apart from the groups of happy smiley THIN people!!! Loved the DVD though.

Angel......we are NOT going to be the overweight ones on the cruise!!!

I am going to order the DVD now to see it. This realy made me laugh.

Got coupons for the $300 store in the mail today. Guess I better check my checkbook and see if I have an extra $300.

Loose before you cruise....please post the address again.

My DH and DS17 and I have been dieting since the 2nd week of Jan (did not want this to be a New Years Resolution). DH had lost 16 pounds total goal of 42. DS17 has lost 10 pounds total goal of 31 and I have lost 8 pounds total goal 22 pounds. So we are on our way......need to pick up the exercise though.

We are doing a 6 week Bible study in preparation for Lent. We are studing Disciplines. Last Monday night we studied prayer. Last night, we studied Fasting. Oh my......is seems the only people who fast these days do it for weight loss and not the Glory of God. I need to pray on this one. I am almost afraid to go the study next week.

Guess since I am talking to myself this morning, I might as well go to work.

I LOVED that show! Did you see the Devil Wears Prada? So funny - I thought of it b/c of all the fashion. (which now I know you just adore!). Actually, it is insane what people (who me ) do for shoes. I went to the Chanel store in SF and just had to buy (something/someone came over me) a pair of gorgeous black shoes. My kids had to eat mac and cheese for weeks! Who said life was easy? They need to know how to sacrafice. The good thing about having all boys (at least for now!) is that all the Nordie budget is for me!

Believe it or not, I did see that movie and loved it! I really only watched it because of Meryl Streep! I love her in anything!

I'm here

Have a good day at work!
