Small ray of hope

So…  Maybe I’ll get the hang of this after all…  Besides, young people do this (blog) all the time and I still wonder how they can have meaningful face to face conversations…

So much for the vent…

We have, right now, a small ray of hope…  Our dossier was received by our facilitator on the 14th, and collected from the translator on the 16th; too late to be submitted this week.  He is going through it to make sure everything is in order and will submit, or at least attempt to submit our dossier next Thursday (Oct. 23), and we should hopefully hear something by mid-November (‘Are we there yet?’ ‘No’! ‘Are we there yet?’ ‘No’!)…  When will we travel?  Nary a clue…

 There is a fear of the unknown, but yet there is the thrill that this is about to come to fruition, and so many “what ifs” that are either rhetorical, or difficult to answer.  To me, it almost seems counterproductive to post blogs when we don’t know what’s going on.  But yet, I find it helpful to periodically vent.  Maybe, just maybe there is someone out there who feels kinda like I do…
