Oh Yeah, I forgot to mention.....

That CCAA got to March 14th this month. That is 10 days away from our log in date, SWEEET! So we are hoping for a July/August referral...hopefully July.

I am almost afraid to put this out here, knowing how swiftly things can change....OMG July is so close!!

I DID forget that May 24th was our 38 month log in date anniversary EEEP!! I can only pray that I have only one more of those before we get to see Mia for the first time,,,wheeee!

I feel like I can breathe again.......

and come out of this self imposed blogging hiatus....I just had to get away, away from the discouraging news of CCAA holding referrals because of H1N1...away from anything adoption because I just couldn't handle it at the time. There is only so much a person can take, KWIM?

Well, there is news that referrals are arriving in Europe, the cut being March 14th.
I believe it's and R3 on Rumor Queen, so it must be coming from more than one or two sources...I am so relieved. It the cut-off is March 14th, that means that CCAA is only 10 Log in dates away from us....If CCAA keeps on track then more referrals should be arriving in another couple of weeks, I really hope so.

I am really hoping for a July referral, but you never can take anything for granted in this process...

*SIGH*............Just heard from my agency...

Who says their office in Beijing has confirmed with CCAA that matching and mailing of referrals are being delayed, due to the swine flu... Just what the matching and mailing of referrals has to do with the Swine Flu is beyond me..... Right now I am just so tired of this,......Nothing about TA's being delayed though, something is going on. This swine flu thing seems to me, just to be a smoke screen, an excuse. It doesn't make sense to stop matching or mailing referrals......Travel, yes, matching, why? Yet I keep reading of people leaving soon for China, or who are there or having no problem getting the traveling papers..I just don't understand..


Worked till almost 8 o'clock tonight to come home and read this.... Nothing about this makes sense anymore.....it's a total nightmare....

Going to bed......

Long Island Ice Tea Saturday...

I know I haven't posted in a while, heck I even haven't checked my favorite blogs lately. Lot's of working late, well lately and lot's of stress....

So I am winding down the day, after working another Saturday, with my favorite drink second only to the vino... So my friends, if I haven't posted on your blog lately, please don't be offended, I just haven't had the energy to form a coherent thought to post something intelligent...sounding....lol.

A teeny rumor is floating around in virtual adoption land, that CCAA will get to the March 15th this month.....How come it seems that all the bad rumors come true, but the good ones don't. AHH WEll, that's the way the fortune cookie crumbles I guess.....

Hope you all are well!!!

I asked Guru Joe if I would get my referral in July, he said "Absolutely Not"...Jerk

A new Day, a new Attitude and good News....

You can almost hear the collective sigh of the adoption community...It does not appear that CCAA is going to suspend travel or referrals, they, the CCAA, is encouraging agencies to counsel their clients to do so, but it does not appear (yet) to be policy.... I guess we will know more next week, when referrals and TA's should be coming out, so keep your fingers crossed...

My agency did send out an email, letting us know, that they have been given no indication that travel and referrals will not continue as planned. So I am going to trust they know what they are doing and not get myself worked up, lol.


p.s. I am will be so glad to get off this rollercoaster....I have had about all I can take at the moment....
