the WAIT...

My kids are back in school... I am back at work (or at least trying to be)... but, I keep checking my inbox and yahoo group accounts for any updates. Maybe it is because I finally have the time to look, or maybe it is b/c the agency I used to belong to has had some referrals today, or maybe it is b/c after all of the holidays I am hoping our agency has some referrals to hand out so I can move down the list. It's probably all 3 combined.
However, I promised myself when I checked in the first time to see where I was on the list (my number was 16 then which means there were 16 people ahead of me with overlapping requests) that I would wait to ask again until I saw some decent movement. My unofficial list off my yahoo group puts me somewhere around #11 right now. But, because my made up list is just that- made up. It holds no real bearing and so really I could still very well be #16.
Anyhoo... today the wait is wearing on me. I know that my referral will come someday. And, I am not really expecting anything until possibly March but probably more like April or May. But, some movement sure would be reassuring.
