This year is at an end. We have done a lot of paperwork, but much more is to come...things will be getting much more interesting. We are now working on the medical forms that need to be done. We need to be tested for every STD known to man, and our doctor has to certify that we have no "heavy, chronic diseases". Here is the original blog post from Rani on this date:

After some difficulties with lost mail, everything for our Home Study is finally in, and we are just waiting for our social worker to come back from holiday to get it all spruced up and sent to us.

We have all of our dossier ducks figured out and in a line. It’s amazing how much easier this all seems after you have spent about 3 hours figuring it out and organizing it all.

Requests are in to the doctor for the newest medical forms - I’m afraid I confused the poor woman at the front desk with all of the things that have to be mentioned in it, she’s going to have the doctor look at it and call me back. Fingerprints have been taken by our local PD and we sent them off to the FBI, so we’re just waiting on the reply to add to the dossier.

All in all, not a bad way to end the year. We’ve accomplished a lot - taking the leap, making it through the Home Study, and getting a grip and a head start on the dossier. 2010 will involve a bit more paperwork , and after that we’ll have to see where the new year takes us!

Happy New Year!

честита нова година!
