119 of 365...Date Night At The Clinic

First of all, I'm not sure why I continue to number my blogs. It's not like I am going to actually write 365 blogs this year. And as for the picture blog, yep not going to happen. I just find myself taking the same types of pictures and those tend to get pretty boring.

Anyway, now to the latest on the adoption process. One of the things Geek Boy and I are required to do for the adoption is get a TB test done. Insurance companies will not cover the test so it's very expensive to go to the doctor. Care Now wanted $77 for each test. The Health Department does them for $20 but only on certain days, which did not fit our schedule. So after doing some Google searches I found that CVS Minute Clinics do the testing for $27. I immediately called Geek Boy and asked him if we could have a date night. Of course who could say no to going to the clinic and getting stuck with a needle that could possibly cause a huge knot on your arm?

So after dropping Older Drama Queen off at youth group, we headed out to get our tests. It was pretty painless. She just stuck a needle under the skin of our arm and that was that. We had to wait 48 hours to see if a knot appeared on our arms. So she instructed us to come back Friday evening and have them evaluate our arms and they would give us official paperwork saying we're negative. What did that mean....woohoo...a bonus date night at the clinic.

Geek Boy and I took Older Drama Queen to dinner Friday night and then we went back to the clinic where I'm happy to announce, we do not have TB.

In other adoption news, we FINALLY signed up for all of our classes. Looks like by the end of July we'll have all of our classes wrapped up and will be able to schedule the Home Study. In the meantime, we HAVE to finish baby proofing this house.

We are trying to mark off a few things each week from the list so we're not scrambling around in August in a panic to get stuff crossed off.
