Never Under Estimate The Power Of Murphy

Remember how, in early December, we rushed around to renew all our background checks - you know, the police, CPS, etc? And how after we found out that labor could be at any moment how we rushed around and even called our social worker who was on vacation to see if she could check and make sure everything was in and she looked and said everything new had gone through and been cleared ok?

Apparently she was looking at our now out of date CPS checks from 2006.

And, oh yeah, the forms we sent in in early December got lost in the mail.

So today we are scrambling around to pick up new forms, fill out said forms, get said forms notarized, and then overnight said forms to Richmond. Where a very nice woman said she would process them immediately so that we didn't have to live in Florida for the entire month of January, since we can't come home until those checks are processed.

Cause what I woke up really hoping for was a little bit of extra stress just to make life exciting.
