At least I don't have to say 'maybe' next time. It is seeming all but official that the 23rd closed the door behind it. So, for another month I will have my nose pressed to the glass...better than my tongue stuck to the flagpole ;0)

Congrats to all but especially to my wunda down unda! I'm so happy for you.

PS: If I turn out to be wrong about this cutoff I will gladly eat crow...after a pint of ice cream, why not? ;0)

C'mon They Who Shall Not Be Named! Move your collective arses!

Daniella said...

It ain't over til the fat lady sings - maybe just maybe you'll be eating crow with icecream and wine. IF not then next sounds awfully good :)

Joan said...

I really hope you are included in this batch. And if you have to eat crow, maybe ketchup will help?

I will be the pessimist and say that this bites.

I've watched some cook an opossum. Crow can't be that difficult after that. I sure hope I can make it for you.

Sofie said...

It is certainly not over - but knowing you are next is also kind of nice - at least it takes the stress of wondering weather or not you are 'in' away. Our referral came Jan 3 of 2006. So (if not this time) yours is going to come at the exact same time of year. Feb/March was a good time to travel to China. The weather was pretty decent. Not too hot and not too cold. I am really excited for you!

Kayce said...

I so hope you get to eat crow. You can add it to your black raspberry chip ice cream. Still sitting here with fingers crossed and prayers being said.

Maggie said...

Well, that's a suckfest. But 2009 will start with knowing the face of your baby -- that's one heck of a way to start the new year.

Red Sand said...

Grmmmmmmm. Ok, got that out of my system. If the rumours are right, then YAY. You're next!

Anonymous said...

I am soooooo hoping that you eat crow!

geminirn said...

Oh! icecream,wine and crow....hope I get an invite for dinner.....sounds yummyyyyyy!!!

Polar Bear said...

I cook a mean Cornish hen. We can substitute that for crow. A good bottle of vino and some chocolate - sounds like a plan to me. :-)

One thing is certain - YOU ARE NEXT!!!!

Love ya!
Hugs!!!

Special K said...

It's not official yet. And until it is I'm still hoping ....

If not.... then at least it's a huge relief to know exactly when that referral is gonna happen. What a glorious new year resolution she'll make. :)

Catherine said...

I hope you get to eat a huge mountain 'o ice cream as a chaser to crow. Still holding out hope for you friend.

Vivian M said...

I wonder if crow goes better with red wine or white wine?

Sandra said...

I am still holding out a little hope. If not now, then definitely NEXT!!!

Unknown said...

A box of Sees Candies (nuts and chews, please) and a bottle of chocolate port wine sounds soooo much better than crow. :)

I'm so excited for you! You are so close to getting your baby!
You don't know me -- but I love your blog -- due to the fact that I'm adopting a baby from China and I'll be a single mom, too. And -- because I'm a pharmacist at a Women's Hospital. My LID is 3-13-06 so I'm right behind you!

t~ said...

After crow and icecream, how about some Ron!?!

Where the hell is that dayum bird?
I'm getting impatient...and a tad irritated that the CCAA has not responded to my request letter. Hmmmf, what's it take to get a little recognition here in the states?

OziMum said...

No Offense... but I hope you'll be eating icecream with a crow chaser!!!

That said...

WHERE THE HECK ARE THOSE REFERRALS?!!!

Briana's Mom said...

I hope the cutoff isn't the 23! But if it is, it is nice knowing you are definitely next. I've been there! The cut off was two days before my LID! Hang on just a little longer!

Anonymous said...

I hope you're in, but if not, it is nice to know you are NEXT. I'm waiting on pins and needles for you!

M :-) said...

I have everything crossed for you!!!

Colleen said...

Ahhh.... the sure feeling of "NEXT" Its not so bad if you can be a bit zen with it, and I know you can. You never know...

Robin said...

I'm still holding out for you to be included but if not.. WOO HOO for 4 weeks from now!!! OMG.. 4 freaking weeks from now (if not now) That is totally doable - at least I think it's doable. So excited for you!

Anonymous said...

ay yi yi. Do they do a new batch every four weeks for sure? If so you will have a very happy New Year!

Steffie B. said...

Finally......I can't wait...so excited for you!

Carol said...

Wow! How flipping exciting!!!!!
