Spring Fever?

All this waiting makes me feel like it's late January/ February and I'm ready for winter to be over already. On one hand it is hard to believe Christmas is one week away - on the other hand time seems to be dragging waiting for news on our referral and travel dates.

There really isn't much news. We know that our dossier will be resubmitted on Monday December 22nd. We don't know what they will do after that. We could (probaby not) get a referral then or end up waiting several more weeks. Russia closes down for the holidays December 31st through January 11th. They should be open the 30th which means we have 2 more chances to hear some positive news before the end of the year.

I am almost ready for Christmas. I have some last minute shopping to do either today or over the weekend. Then of course a bunch of wrapping. I really don't enjoy wrapping gifts. I'm not sure why but I have never liked it. Connor has to see Santa yet. We are running a little late on that one but he will get his "order" in before Christmas.
