GUY
On July 10, we had a tragic loss in our family. My step-brother Guy passed away. He was a wonderful person and we will miss him greatly. My boys are especially sad as he was a favorite Uncle. If you would like to learn more about him, e-mail me for his website.
We had just gotten back from our camping trip to Utah a few days earlier and so I had not taken time to download pictures and post. Since the funeral on July 22nd, I have just not had the motivation to write much.
THE LONG WAIT
I'm a lot frustrated about the wait and the slow pace of referrals. They just matched June 29 - July 13 LID's on July 29th. This is a very small improvement over last time. Last month it was 13 days worth, this time it was 15. I am so thrilled for those families who received referrals this time, but for those of us still waiting it was a big bummer that they did not process more.
I calculated that there are 128 days between July 13th and our LID of November 18th. If you divide 128 by 15 days per month it comes out to 8.53333... SOOOO if they keep it at this pace then we won't see our referral for at least another 8 months, meaning March 2007. AHHHH!!
It is good to have somewhere to write and share my frustrations it does help. Well enough of all this sad news. So I will end this post and start a new one with our camping pictures.
