Ok. I feel a little better now. I don’t know what my hang up about my first post was all about. I guess I’m just a private person, and it’s a little wierd to just “put stuff out there.” Plus, I’m not entirely sure what this blog is going to turn out to be. It could turn out to be an infertilty journal of sorts, since that’s what my life is centered around right now (more on that later.) I’m sure I’ll also throw in other random stuff, including accounts of life with my funny furry friends. Who knows. It’s just hard to know where to start.

Well, I’ve been putting off writing my first official post, because I just wasn’t sure where to start. I figured I might as well begin by explaining the name of my blog. While my husband was in law school, I taught preschool (4&5 year olds.) One of my students was a bit behind in his language development, so he couldn’t pronounce my name correctly. Instead of Amanda, he said “Manana.” My husband has since taken to calling me “Manana Banana.”
