We have our homestudy Friday at 3:30pm...I called our cleaning lady last week, and she didn't know if she was available--can I say I was quite stressed until she called last night saying she'll be at our house on Wednesday. whew, I have cleaned but I need her for the floors and dusting..othewise we are all set. I just home the train arrives in Ronkonkoma on time. LOL.

All our paperwork is done, we mailed in the $ for the I600A and application, we met another China couple at our 8 hour class this wkend from Ronkonkoma who seem very nice....

Fingerprints are next I am guessing! Oh we got a bunch of Adoption magazines this wkend at our class.

excited!

Good luck..keep us posted.

The homestudy is really not a huge stress factor. Remember your agency is here to help you with your adoption, not prevent you from adoptionChat Icon Chat Icon

Our social worker is "jenifer" (jen?)...I think she lives in Riverhead. She sounds young. I can't recall her last name.

I am starting to feel better; it's funny, i had been putting off making a phone call to someone, and after I made the call, I started feeling better...and i am sure I will feel MUCH better after the homestudy!

I got my passport back yesterday! Now we just need Scotts! And I think I had my first 'baby dream/China baby' last night!

You guys crack me up...seriously. I wonder if we'll have the same SW, Sandra. I'm happy you're going first. Chat Icon You can tell me what to expect. Who did you call that made you feel better? Or did you purposely leave that part out?

ETA: What was your dream about? I had a dream last night that I got a third dog! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon I was happy to wake up from that one! Chat Icon

I had to call this woman I am an "assistant" to at the real estate office who I haven't spoken to since xmas..I said I'd call after the new year, but honestly, we have been sooo busy and I have been sick and I don't feel like giving up wkends anymore and I don't feel like doing real estate, and I had to call her, it was weighing me down and even though I called and left a message, she called me back, and now we are phone tag, but I made the call and that was a relief.

I can't remember the dream, darnit!
