Adoption

I've started blogging as well

I find writing cathartic and found writing for an adoption blog interesting. So I started to blog myself. Devoted quite a bit of time today and yesterday to set up, but won't be abe to post as often most of the time - way too busy!

It's something I'm doing for myself - something I actually find enjoyable. Some focus on me rather than the kids. It might sound an odd way to do something for yourself, but when have I ever been a sane woman?

I refuse to write about the contact saga for now. I am compartmentalising. I am focussing on other aspects of adoption i can much more happily write about.

I am mostly writing posts about adoption and giving resources rather than a huge amount of personal stuff (although there will be a bit of that) because a lot of my personal stuff is boring or moany and DD2 related, which isn't what i want to blog about, because that would defeat the point of it being enjoyable. If you want to read it,you can PM me for the address.

And also, guess what I did yesterday? I HAD MY HOT BATH At bloody last! I felt better the minute I dipped my littlest toe in!

Lilka.... Fantastic blog. The love and compassion and pride you have for your children is so evident in your blog.
So glad you have found a way to help you through these difficult times you are having. So eloquent and an inspiration.
Looking forward to hearing more.
