I guess this is the best time to start AI...and the worst

it is the best because it is before fall recruitment.

It is the worst because I probably won't hear anything before September (mid July or August if I am lucky)

But the good thing is I have some AWESOME women in my corner!

It is hard to be patient....

Have you heard the quote: G-d give me patience and I want it NOW!?

I kinda feel that way!

Any vibes will be appreciated

Thumbs up Patience is a virtue......

Patience, my pets, patience.

I know that it is not easy to be patient when you are so excited and want to shout it out from the hilltops, but believe me, your progresses sound very encouraging.

There are women who have gone AI before you (in various NPCs) who had false starts with groups, or they encountered alumnae who were suspicious of them or "pooh pooh'd" the idea of alumnae initiates (and because of the reception that they got from these alumnae, they had "start anew" from the very beginning) with a different group, thus making their journey to their "home" even lon-n-n-n-n-n-n-nger.

Please be grateful that this has not happened to you!
Hang in there....when it all comes together, you can shout it from the mountaintops - and not worry, we will all be there to listen and share in your happiness!

With the summer going in full swing, things have been slow. I am keeping in contact with my connections and hope to be meeting with representatives from Group A soon

Keeping fingers crossed!
