An early morning call said we're OUT!!!!!!
YES YES YES!!!! We are out. This long-timer has been set free!! Our agency just called. When I saw their name on the caller ID, my hand froze, because I thought for sure it was another KO. My heart jumped into my throat, and I couldn't catch my breath. But they said we were out. AMEN!! DH and DH were shouting, and poor DD just got on the bus and missed the good news. I still feel like I can't breathe. It's like a panic attack, but a good panic attack.


We were resubmitted 12/1, so it looks like PGN is getting to work on the backlog. Let's hope we see many more cases today. All those files that they'e using as doorstops, let's see them signed off.


Hang in there if you are still waiting. One day the gloom will lift, the restlessness and pessimism will be over and you'll be out.


Rachael

Wow! You have two husbands and still got through PGN. I guess they are really loosening up!

[Just had to give you a hard time about that]
