I have been MIA lately. Two reasons. First the good.
I have been working around the clock planning the launch party fir sjkid and making sure the site was ready for launch. I love this job. I am meeting the most amazing smart women. Women who have either do not work for pay (volunteer), work part-time or work full time with flex schedules. They have all found away to combine work and parenting, without sacrificing intellectual stimulation or quality time with their children. It is inspiring! The launch went well here are some pictures from it http://www.sjkid.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=354&Itemid=355
The bad. My wonderful dear friends in Montreal are having a major snag in their adoption. They have had been falsely accused of horrible things by a homophobic neighbor. They are the best people. They have an open house where people are invited to drop in at anytime and told to stay for dinner. They brought us fully prepared meal when Robbie was home from having surgery and we couldn't go out! They have 2 children one birth child and one who was about to be adopted by them. Both of them are special needs kids. They spend all their time at appointments seeing specialists to help the kids, mostly out of pocket. This is so unfair!

The launch party looked AWESOME, soooooo AWESOME!!!
I am so glad you are loving the job and it seems like such an great networking opportunity as well!!!
I am so sorry for your friends, how awful. I am so saddened how alive and well homophobia is throughout the world.
Its great that things are going so well with the work! I thought maybe the hurricane had you all holed up there (I heard it headed your way-- was that true?)
I am so sorry about your montreal buds... That is too incredibly awful and unfair...
