I'm anxious

I have seen some posts about referrals, that came yesterday. Not everyone has gotten "the call" yet, though, because of Good Friday and Easter weekend. OMG, I'm so anxious right now. I know I shouldn't be. The Oct 26 rumor is still hot and heavy, and very well could be true. Who knows?

I sure don't.

Really, this end part to the wait is the hardest, yet. And here I've told my boss and a few more people at work, and am still not sure when I'll get my referral.

The other rumor I've heard is that they got through October 30. I'd actually be happier with that, then I'd feel a better sense of calm because, in theory, I'd be next *for sure*.

My friend's birthday is tomorrow. Easter is here. I'm just waiting.

Peace.

Sigh....

Well... rumors floating...

1. Might only get 2 days worth of referrals (bringing us up to a whopping 10/26) - YIKES,
2. The referrals *might* be on their way,
3. We might get referrals Monday or Tuesday.

*Heavy Sigh*

I'm doing OK, just wishing we knew something before the long weekend. 'Cause last weekend was just me checking the computer every 5 seconds to see if there was any information ANYWHERE. It will happen eventually. So, I need to just relax and remember that. And get excited when I know something for sure!!

... so, I'm going to try to enjoy Easter, my friend Joe's 35th (Woohoo) birthday, and my sister's new place!!

Oh, and sleep. ZZZzzzzzz

God bless you all. I hope you have a blessed Easter. It is definitely a joyous time. **Ok, now that didn't sound convincing, did it? It really IS a joyous time!! :) Say it with me folks - Happy Easter!

Peace.

No news

No new rumors. :( So, today... no news ='s no good news. bah.

waaaaaaaaah

Does this mean referrals won't come until the end of the month? Some folks say next week, but that just seems so odd to me. When was the last time referrals came mid month?

Peace. (although, i'm not feeling quite so peaceful today)

Latest rumor and stuff

Well, the latest news is that TA's arrived today, not referrals. WAAAAH. The stork played a trick on us, it seems.

Rumor is, we won't have Referrals until later this week... maybe. Who knows! :(

Bah Humbug. (ok, that's Christmas, but it is fitting here) Crimeny, Crud, Crappola. I'm grumpy now.

And I know people are like... why (am I grumpy all of the sudden)? WELL, LET ME TELL YOU.... It has been 17 months just waiting after I was logged in. I've been working on this since JANUARY 2005. Boys and girls, that makes it 2 years and 3 months! OMG.

I've been very patient. More patient than I EVER thought I would be. But....

NOW WHERE IS MY FREAKING REFERRAL????????

Ok, at least let me know that I'll be next. Ya know? Really. This stinks. I had comfort food for lunch (a tuna melt) and now I'm having Chocolate. Deep breath. This too shall pass. I *WILL* get a referral. I just don't know when. Really. God is good to me. I'm just wishing we'd hear something. ANYTHING.

Oh, and CONGRATS to those who got their TA's. That's just the next cog on the wheel. :)

Peace.

This weekend

So, Friday... we went to pick up my nephew (ok, Sis did, but I was on my way, too)... and BIL called ME and told me that Sis doesn't have Nephew for her normal weekend because of Spring Break. Of course he lied... she was supposed to have him Friday night until Sat., 9am. UGH. Very frustrating. And then the kicker is that he is on his *power trip* and even though he said Sis could probably have C this weekend at some point, he didn't let her. Liar. :( Makes me mad. I could talk a lot more about this, but I'll just keep it to myself for now.

Saturday was a VERY LONG day for me, for some reason. I checked the boards and blogs a thousand times. Then, I had a meltdown. Not sure why, except that this week should hopefully be referral time. With everything going on, I guess I just needed a good cry. Sis' friend kept picking on me (in fun), but it wasn't feeling so funny (he was picking on my singing...and anyone who knows me know that offends me a bit). Then his kids were not so nice that day. It was all I could do to stay there. But Sis convinced me to stay and the kids apologized and brought my stuff back in. His daughter, K, was very sweet and spent most of the night trying to cheer me up.

Yesterday, Sis got the keys to her new house (that she is renting). It is pretty cool! Great master bedroom and huge kitchen (which she loves). The girls and I drove to my house and FILLED my car with stuff for Sis' new place. It was fun. We blasted the radio the whole way there. :) They loved Manna and said I should take her to Sis'. lol. K and I went to Wally World and got Sis some stuff for the house (kitchen stuff, bathroom stuff.... ya know). Then I went to Kroger and got some fridge basics. Sis got a free bed, TV and dresser from B's neighbor yesterday, too! That was awesome.

OMG OMG OMG, I almost forgot! K saw a LADYBUG on Sis' new windowsill yesterday!!! That is good luck for sure, right?!!! :) That is the first one I've seen in AGES. No joke.

So, this all kept my mind off the impending referrals (yesterday, anyhow) that *might* still come today... although, it isn't looking good at all right now.

Oh, and OSU is in the college basketball finals tonight!! WOOHOO. Go Buckeyes!! :)

Peace.
