Venting(Sometimes you just have to!)

Venting, that is what I need to do at the moment. It was a good day getting out of town yesterday but today I just have the adoption on my mind. We are still waiting for travel and it is getting old. Got the referral in early April and were told 4/5 months till travel. beginning of summer told it looks like process is moving quicker so maybe mid July. Then told late July and told to get a 3 month visa. OK got Visas for late July early August travel. Told no travel yet maybe mid august. Nada. Our agency director gets back from a trip to Vietnam and delays in province with issues unrelated to adoption but keeping the powers that be dealing with other issues. so maybe early Sept. Now it is early Sept and maybe late Sept. we are old. I am getting fed up and for lack of a better word pissed off. I understand that working with a foreign government can cause delays, I have lived overseas and had to deal with them personally myself. Just when you are waiting to travel to get your child it all becomes very frustrating and seems like an emotional roller coaster. Any of you folks out there had to deal with this? I know there are but sometimes you think this only happens to you. Luckily the three other families in our group waiting for dates all communicate with each other so we have that. Well, I feel alittle better typing this, deleting it due to many swear words and re-typing it LOL. Sometimes venting works. Lets just hope we get to go soon before I and my wife go crazy!

We had a bit of a wait like this with our first adoption. It is extremely frustrating knowing there is nothing you can do but still wondering if there is something you could do..
