No time to breathe or blog

We came back from vacation and I hit the ground running. Monday was drive around and get all the last necessary documents picked up for the update to my homestudy that was taking place Tuesday and try to unpack and clean sand out of every crevice imaginable. Tuesday was taking the cat to the vet and cleaning the house, and the homestudy. All went well with that, since this is my THIRD update. The only dark spot is that my child protective services clearance may show that anonymous complaint that someone turned in on us last year to DFACS. They say it is not a big deal, that if it shows up they will just include it in the homestudy and explain what happened, but it is a big deal to me and I was further peeved about the mysterious busybody who reported us.

I heard from my facilitator that my file is not lost, but still awaiting the president of Haiti to sign off on it since we have more than 2 bio kids. Apparently if you have 2 or less children your paperwork can slide through, but if you have more than that the prez himself has to sign it. The director at my O said that she was pushing very hard to get my file moving. That helps some.

Nate and I are off this morning to Raleigh, for my good friend Jacque's (JacDan in my sidebar) wedding. We are making this our annual getaway as well. Several of my old friends from High School will be there and I am looking forward to seeing every one, but nothing compares to my excitement of seeing Jac finally tie the knot.

Catrina,

Congratulations on getting through the home study, again! I am sorry that the DFACS complaint is giving you a headache, but just remember that this type of complaint could happen to anyone and i am sure everyone will understand. Have fun at Jacque's wedding, she sure seems like a fun and interesting character! I have enjoyed reading her blog! She is soooo funny and 'in love' : ) : )

Bye,

Ash
