Round two begins for real
We turned in all of our paperwork for our Home Study update, and the paperwork to the placement agency, and we went to the doctor, and all that jazz. We have a couple more classes to go to, and then the HS will be completed and we'll be "activated," which means we'll be waiting for a placement.
Yesterday we sat down and budgeted to figure out where all of the different fees and costs are coming from. We'll be maxing out our credit, most likely, but it's doable, and we feel very fortunate to be in the position we're in. Benefit of being middle-aged, I guess--our careers are in full swing, and things are going pretty well, financially.
So now I'm just trying to get a handle on having some kind of rhythm to my life while we wait. I went for a run today, and I went two days ago, and with perseverence I can get back into my every-other-day habit that I worked up to before it got cold. I have art projects to finish, and I have a lot of overtime to put in at the office, getting things ready for me to be gone for 4 weeks or maybe a little more. So it's not like I won't stay busy. But I've been doing paperwork for a couple of months straight, so it's odd to be back in the no-paper zone again.
