You Said It, Sunday, September 9, 2007

From my infertility post.

  • “I can tell by reviewing your list that you’re one kickass mofo… Glad your powers are used for good and not evil.” – Redsy making me feel all warm and fuzzy. And kick-assy.
  • “Why IS it that the doctors don’t recommend donor sperm they way they do with donor eggs?” – PunditMom asking an excellent question which I will weigh in on soon.

From Tuesday’s GRIT.

  • “These link posts crack me up. I feel like the blind guy in Amelie when she walks him down the street.” – Jonathon Morgan making me snort my coffee.

From my WeightWatchers post.

  • “I actually know of someone who got addicted to crack because she started using it to lose baby weight. I think you’re definitely better off doing the WW thing – even if it makes you look like the Joker from Batman.” – andi creeping me out. In a good way.

From my Lucy post.

  • “Erika, I am really sorry. You’re still fabulous.” – Moobs making me laugh really hard when I really needed it.
  • There are almost 100 comments on this post right now, and only one that is negative. I am so grateful for all of you, for your support, for your kindness and understanding. Reaching out to me when most of you don’t know me in person has been incredibly powerful and moving. I couldn’t be handling this as I am without you. And a lesson I have learned is that even if a post has a million comments, I’ll never refrain from commenting because I think it will get lost in the shuffle. Every.single.one of the comments I’ve gotten has been important and meaningful to me.

From Thank you.

  • “Lucy has some beautiful brown eyes.” – DD. True that.

    I second Moobs, you ARE fabulous. I’m so glad you got support from so many over your loss. Anybody who’s a Mom knows that sometimes, inexplicably you just FORGET… something, someone, somewhere. I just happens.

    My prayers are still with your gang… don’t bother to respond to this. Just go spend a couple extra moments with the boys!

    What a great idea to highlight some of the comments you received. I always wonder if people get a chance to look over all of the comments on my blog as that is really half the fun, isn’t it? I know I often miss some really great discussions as I’m so busy catching up on reading everyone’s actual posts.

    So, in summary, I’m once again in awe of your brilliance – and I’m not just saying that because mine was one of them – really!

    Whenever coffee is snorted, I know I have been successful.

    I’m loving this new feature. Sometimes the conversations that ensue are the most interesting.

    Still sending love your way re: Lucy. Furry friends are family.

    Crack or Weight Watchers. Hmmm.

    BOSSY: Tough call, isn’t it. It all comes down to my budget, though, and I think I’m just too plain cheap to get hooked on crack. $5 here, $5 there, it really adds up.
