We got the FedEx tracking number yesterday and the web site said that the packet will be at my office by 10:30am. So I made an attempt to do some work and even managed to get something done. Around noon I saw the FedEx ground truck pull up and walk in the door so I tracked the guy down and signed for 2 packages. I looked the FedEx guy in the eye and said “You have another package for me!!” and he looked back and said “Nope that’s it.”. Once again my Jedi powers of the Force let me down. At that moment I realized that he was FedEx Ground and that he was right he probably didn’t have it. I decided to call FedEx since it was well past 10:30. They told me that they were running 3 hours behind. Now Becky has been in an all day meeting and would call my cell phone every chance she had to see if the package arrived. I knew that I couldn’t go home empty handed, I had people to answer to (Becky). Surprisingly Becky was taking the waiting time better than I was. I think as the time gets closer the more it is beginning to agitate me. I’m ready to go. Becky and I have talked and I don’t think having the picture helped, I think it made the waiting worse. We are so close and now we have a name and face to go with our goal. Anyway, around 3:00 I got a call from Barbara up front letting me know that the FedEx truck is here. I got up and ran to the front of the building and basically grabbed the packet from the guy and ran into Barbara’s office to open up the envelope where the original photos were neatly attached to all the other documents. I made out what I could on the descriptions of Fu Chuan Ke but did I mention I can’t read Chinese?? I called Becky and told her that I got the packet and at 4:00 I went home. I ran up stairs to our home office and started to fill out the forms for the referral acceptance so they were ready for Becky to sign when she got home. Becky double checked the info and we signed the document. LaWanna, Fred’s wife offered to have Fred put the package on the plane since he worked for FedEx and we wanted a quick turn around. I would say 3 hours in our possession was quick. Thank you LaWanna & Fred your Great friends. We then posted on the Yahoo Groups that our referral was signed and on it’s way back.
