So, I know I happily explained last post how I wasn’t bogging myself down by reading everything online or digging through the process notes – just going smoothly along. When I hopped online yesterday, visa card in hand, to place my order, I ran into a bit of a wrinkle. I had noticed that there was a form or something to deal with prior to purchase (they only send this stuff to certain places – contrary to popular belief, this is not a “do it yourself”situation), but hadn’t paid much attention to it. Well, turns out TRM will need to fill out this form and send it in before the bank will ship anything. So, okay, I sighed, downloaded the form, and planned to call the office first thing Monday morning.

I tend to get excited about things. I’m great at counting my chickens before they’ve hatched, carting before the horse, etc etc etc. So, once again, here I am having to take a little step back. I spend a lot of time celebrating things before they’ve come to fruition – mostly because I’m so excited at the prospect. Sometimes I know it’s better to keep things to yourself, but it’s SO hard for me.

So what happens if this donor doesn’t work out, and I have to pick another? What happens if none of this works and I have to go a different route? I guess it’ll be an adventure no matter how it goes, so I’ll just buckle in for now and see what is ahead of me. It’ll also be yet another amazing exercise in patience – a thing I have very little of in stock.

Come on Monday morning, let’s get this show on the road!
