Any Day Now

I haven’t spoken much about it, but the baby is due any day now and I can’t wait! I’m going to write up an eviction notice and send it to the baby through email: resident@myuterus.com. Haha, it’s impossible to do obviously but it’s still a funny thought right?

So I finished up the family tree a few days ago. It was quite a wonderful experience. Sifting through old photographs, looking at immigration records, reading old newspapers, running a background check…I just can’t get over how touching and personal it was. It really made me feel in touch with my family and where I come from and what my baby is going to have as his/her heritage. Very exciting. But now I’ve got the finding people bug for sure. It’s given me a real sense of purpose and belonging. This weekend we were packing up old boxes and I came upon my high school year book. Wow, I can’t believe I kept it. I’ve been feeling pretty nostalgic about it. I think my next project will be tracking down my graduting class by using my usual techniques. If all works out I think I’ll write a book, like a guide to finding your old classmates. I could be huge! Well, I am huge right now. Not for much longer though. Hopefully!
