Last week's GPS was a bit uneventful BUT Saturday I took care of two very crucial items for applying to foster....CPR certification and finger printing for the DHR and FBI background checks! Should give you a bit of piece of mind knowing that I'm now certified for CPR if you have dinner with me, right? lol.
I still have to have a "home study" done. Not sure when that will be. Plus I need to decide if I want to foster infants and if so I will have to do some more things at home before the home study can be completed.
The background checks are the longest "hurdle" in the process of being licensed, though, so getting the finger prints done was crucial. I had been putting it off for a long time then finally went one day only to have them say it would be an hour before he could do it. Saturday the guy was super nice and he did it right away. I'm not sure if my background check will go faster since it's a single background check versus married couple, but either way it will be awhile before I'm good to go. Unfortunately that means it will probably have to be AFTER April 15th before I will start fostering. People keep asking me when I will get my first child, and well, it's gonna be awhile people.
So if you happen to get a call from DHR or the FBI regarding my background please be nice! HA!!
