Welcome to today's edition of Connections Abound. The point to Lost and Found is to level the support playing field. When LFCA works correctly, the newest blogger with the smallest readership can receive the same level of support as the oldest blogger with the largest readership. Anyone can submit news to LFCA by clicking here.Lost and Found is open to anyone in the infertility, pregnancy loss, adoption, pregnancy-and-parenting after infertility, assisted conception, living child-free after infertility or loss community (as well as anyone I inadvertently missed on that list). Please support the list as well as anyone posting announcements below.

MISCELLANEOUS NEWS

- We won't be voting until the afternoon, but the report from Josh this morning is that the protesters were not out at the polling place. All that dance practice for nothing.
- Helpful Site: To Write Their Names in the Sand is a children's memorial site. They will write your child's name in the sand and photograph it before the ocean washes it away. They are currently not taking names again until tomorrow (scroll to the bottom of the page).
- Another place to vote: Please vote for Shauna in this contest. The money will be used to pay for fertility treatments if she wins.
- Idea: Knocked Up, Knocked Down is thinking of starting a literary magazine "for the TTC/KuKd set, comprised of readers' submitted essays, poetry, columns, and even artwork/photography. There are lot of cool 'zines for so-called normal mommas - but what about the reproductively wacked? I believe that writing is hugely cathartic not just for me, but for others who are at a point in their lives where they need some human connection in this lonely-seeming journey of infertility or knocked-downage. Regardless of what your situation is, you certainly have a unique perspective that others can benefit from." Go over and vote on the title.
- The new IComLeavWe list opened and there is a way to do it even with Thanksgiving. Come join along and increase the comments on your blog.
- Harriet the Spy is the current book club selection and everyone is invited to join along.
