Interview

Well, I finally got in touch with the social worker. We played phone tag. She was in meetings all day. Then, Bill cut his finger using an electric hedge trimmer. He wasn't paying attention! It scared me to death. I'm a nurse and can deal with blood, but it's different when its your family! Especially your husband. I wrapped it in gauze and off to the urgent care we went! We had to wait forever! He ended up cutting it in three places. They had to cut a skin flap off. She said he didn't need stitches b/c it was a clean straight cut. So he got a dressing on it and we were on our way back home. It was about 4:30 in the afternoon. On the way home there is one area where my cell doesn't get service. Wouldn't you know that is when the social worker would call me back! My phone said I had a message so I checked it, and it was her and she said she was going to try me at home! Oh no! I called her back right fast, and thankfully she answered!

So, we finally got our application interview scheduled! Yay! We are going to Williamsburg next weekend, so I asked if she had anything next Thurs., Fri., or the next Mon. around that weekend. She had an opening on Mon.! So, our interview is on Mon., Nov. 2 @ 9:30! We are so nervous. We know that it is all in God's hands, but it's still a little nerve wrecking! She said all we have to do is bring ourselves, and then we would leave with a stack of papers to fill out. She said it wouldn't nearly be the amount we would need for our homestudy! There's so much paper work to be done. I'm gonna try to work hard on it all and finish it in good time. I definitely don't want any hold ups to be b/c of us not finishing paperwork!

Well, I guess now we just have to wait until Nov. 2! Then we'll see. It sounds like they like us already since she said we would leave with a stack of paper work. That sounds promising!
