Well, I know that nothing is really happening on the adoption front, because of course, I am just waiting now, but I have had an exciting revelation – I have thought and (I think) decided on a name for my girl. I wasn’t going to change her name, out of a respect for her family, and I know somewhere in the name I will pick will be her name too (probably third), but I have the names that she will get from me. You’ll have to wait until she is my girl to hear them, but I will give a hint. Her first name will start with an A and her second with a B. But she will be called by a short form of the second. Those are your only clues.
I hate it when people are cryptic, but oh well.
On the spreadsheet front, I have made an Excel sheet to keep track of recent referrals and the many many people ahead of me, but the newest modification (yes I spend way to much time absorbed by this process) calculates the number of days people wait for a referral and then averages those numbers, and projects (based on the current date and average wait) my possible referral date. I know it won’t be right there and I know it’ll change as info is updated, but right now, end of June. I know wait times are increasing, but I don’t care. I just need to point my attention elsewhere!
It’s a good day! Eight and a half school days until Christmas holidays!
Home!

wow- you spreadsheet sounds fancy! mine is now colour coded - but that is as high tech as I am going to get. Can't wait to see the name you have choosed - we still have a long way to go with names - especially boy's names.
I know your first name... won't ruin the surprise, don't worry! But for the second name, is it the same name you named that cow? Because that would be funny! (Although I do like that name! And it has an easy nickname...)
Umm, well the second name, it's close to the cow's name, but not exactly (and in my defence I gave that cow a stylin' name). And it is sooooo cute.
