The Switch Got Flipped

What happened today? This morning?

After dreaming fitfully about hearing about embassy appointments? After waking up and finding out that our case continues to be stalled in red tape? After finding out that our own government is causing these inexplicable delays? After being told to "be patient" one more week?

Yesterday, for the first time in this process, I got explosively angry.

I wanted to cry but just shook instead. Something's gotta give. And soon.

Oh, I am so sorry! My son and daughter-in-law (peep-eye) are still waiting for their MOWA letters. May all this red tape untangle soon!!

Oh. I wish I knew what to say. But I know there are no words. Just know that I'm thinking of and praying for you guys. Hoping things are settled quickly and that you can bring her home.

Hi Lori, oh do I feel your pain. We too are being held up by the US Embassy (we were also missing our MOWA letter, so for us this is just par for the course). Hopefully we will both get some good news soon. It's maddening, I know.

STUPID GOVERNMENT!

there are some delays in this process that I sort of understand. There are others that just make me ENRAGED. Like THIS. I'm so sorry. And I'm praying for you.
