MMMMMMM (Marge Simpson-esque growl)

Two days of actual school left, then one beach day, some clean up on Friday and it's all about the holidays after that! Oh yeah! My kids have checked out already. I gave them a day to catch up, and they did not a lot at all. Some of the girls helped with clean up. I have them sorting my stuff into subjects, and I even had a couple doing easy marking and another entering marks on the computer while I helped out others and organized the rest of my helpers. And now I really should stop stalling and get to marking. I have to get on top of it all.
Anyway, on the adoption front, Perdita emailed me back (I called her Saturday hoping we could get together while I was in Edmonton and sign the Home Assessment Report). She said the HAR is done save for one tweak. She'll send it off tomorrow and then the folks at ABC will sign it and then send it to me. Except that by then, I'll be on holidays. Seriously! Perdita said she'll tell Ramone, the head honcho at Adoption By Choice about the rush and see it we can't work it out before the weekend when I leave. I doubt it though. I guess this is the waiting they were talking about. Already this sucks! I hate waiting. I can only imagine how much harder it'll be to wait once I have a picture of my little girl and have to wait for the courts to do their business. Akk. This is going to be a long year+.
