There are two kinds of people on this forum...
...those that want into PGN, and those that want out.
It's funny how everything seems to revolve around that one step of the process. I hope everyone gets in... and out... as fast as possible. I pulled up behind a license plate today that was half numbers and half "PGN", so I'm hoping that's a good sign.

I also had something happen over the weekend that I hope is a good sign. My cousin is a dance teacher and has a new little student that was adopted from Guatemala. They put her on the phone to me so that she could tell me she was from Guatemala.
Then I received a present today ( due to getting a new job) and it was a coffee mug that said I had an angel watching over me. I'm hoping that these are two good signs that we will be out of PGN this week!!!! And Yes.... All we wanted was to get into PGN. Now all we want is OUT!!!!

Please let me back in! I want back in sooooooooooooooooo bad. What is that? Oh, sorry that was the loud tick-tock of my "when am I getting back in " clock!

It is too funny! I kept telling the director of my agency..."I just want to get in, at least I know that I am getting somewhere!" And the day after she made the call to tell me that I was in, I called her to make her laugh and said "well now AM I OUT??" "I am never satisfied"! She got a good chuckle out of it! Here's to MANY, MANY Outs this week (hopefully I am one of them...lol!)

I agree...I wanted in sooo badly and have prayed everyday since then to get out! My brother in law came into my office this morning and said he had a premonition that I would be getting a phone call. I told him that I already had several and none of them from anyone I wanted to talk to! Oh well...there's always tomorrow!

How true! I'd be more than happy to graduate, so that someone else can take my place. Any takers?!?!

LOL! Very true. The other steps can have agonizing waits as well, though. I guess it's because PGN is the last long wait.
