I'm Certified!!

Received word today that the judge has signed off on my paperwork, and I am certified to adopt! Phew! Now it's just more wait and see about placement of kiddos... My adoption specialist says she's left several messages for "the boys'" caseworker and has never received a call back. So I'm waiting, waiting... tap-tap-tap

Had to run 12 miles last Saturday and it KICKED MY ASS! Uck. But it sure made the 4 miles I did today seem E-Z. 10 miles this coming Saturday, then 14 the following. I have lost 17 lbs on NS so far! Feeling a bit more like my ol'self. At least I can fit into my old fat clothes. :)

(Sorry I'm not much of a commenter or a blogger lately, but I'm still one hell of a lurker.)
