I'm Back...

...from vacation that is. Our vacation was just what the doctor ordered. I am hesitant to dive back into reality, but here's my 2 cents on referrals.

I felt that this last batch of 8 days was better of course than the 5 day that we had in October in number of days and poll families matched, but not really back to 'normal'.

While I was away my adoption agency sent out it's usual notice that referrals had gone out as well as another note warning us about visiting rumor sites. I realize that there are people who can get caught up in the RUMORS but I have believe that Rumor Queen is the best source we have to finding the FACTS. Below are the last 6 months of referrals based on RQ's polls, showing the number of days and the number of poll families matched.

Using the number of families matched is a much better way to estimate what will happen next... of course in this ever changing environment this is of course shaky on a long term basis. So here's what I'm thinking for next month.

I will be happy with 10 days but not surprised with 7 days,of course the header for 5 days speaks for itself!
