T.A.'s are here!

Yeah -- We got T.A. today!!! (Travel Approval from China). Now we just have to wait another day or two and we should have our confirmed Consulate Appointment (CA). THEN we can start booking our airline/hotel reservations, etc. My agency thinks we'll have confirmation early next week. They are requesting a Consulate Appt. of Dec. 11. If that is approved, then we would leave for China the week right after Thanksgving (probably on Wed. Nov. 28) - and would return home on Dec. 13 or 14 -- just in time to collapse for Christmas! :) I am really excited now -- except that I have so much to do!! I guess you're never really ready... but I must at least start off with a clean house and I know I won't have time to get it to where I want it - so I'm calling a maid service tomorrow! :)
