Heartbroken

I have learned hard lessons about adoption and fostering. Don't expect anything to go as planned. Our homestudy visit was scheduled for yesterday evening. The social worker did not show up! I was aggravated. I called this morning only to discover that the social worker QUIT! Yes, she quit and gave a two-hour notice!! Now there is no one to teach our class. No one called us to cancel. To top it off, we had scheduled babysitters with a sitter service (very expensive), which we have to cancel. We will spend $80 for sitters that we don't use. I am heartbroken, don't know what to do. Deciding to foster is a soul searching decision to begin with. Add on this stress and we really feel like we are being taken for a ride. I am waiting to hear from our agency, then go from there. I am very disappointed.
