Our Boy Loves Pink!!!

Just checked my e-mail(its 11:30 pm here). and we have our pink slip!!!!
Our appt is Dec 2 on a Friday. Our agency just suggested that we e-mail the embassy and ask them if we can possibly pick up our visa that afternoon. Otherwise we will have to wait out the weekend and go back on Monday.
Please pray that they allow us to do that.
I am sitting here in shock!!!!

Very unhappy with my agency due to lack of communication, long process, contract restrictions, and many other reasons. Ask me if you'd like to avoid them.
