I guess I haven’t given any adoption updates in a long time. Why is that you ask? Because there is no update. They love to keep us totally in the dark .
We are still stuck on #11 in the adoption process checklist and that is because Guatemala keeps deciding it needs to make us jump through more and more hoops. They suddenly wanted another physical and then they wanted a psychological evaluation (which I will go into great detail about sometime in the future). Now we are sending those documents around to get everyone’s stamp of approval and then we can send them to Guatemala so they can hopefully proceed to the next step. (It’s been over a year now, c’mon man, let’s go already.)
Of course it doesn’t help me to read articles like this one: Guatemala Status of Intercountry Adoptions.
I should make myself adhere to my “no news” rule more closely.
If this adoption ever manages to be successful, I hope it happens before he can drive up here himself or I’ll find myself living in a cozy new room made of rubber.
I thought this post could use a song. I’ve chosen Playgroup’s “Make it Happen.” I like to play it really loud and give the subwoofer a workout. It kicks ass if the floor is vibrating.
