Thank you Rory

I tried your suggestion and I was able to log onto Instant Messenger. Unfortunately everyone is still in bed. I will come back later tonight and see if anyone is logged on. This is awesome, it will be like old times for me. Many many years ago I used to sit at work and send instant messages to people I once knew. I am hoping that some of them are still alive.
Our translator came back today and it was great seeing him. We feel much more connected to things here when he is around. We are supposed to be able to take the kids out of the orphanage for some ice cream at a real restaurant. Thank God we don't have to spend another couple hours in our 1/1,000,000 acre play area.
Also he found out this code we can use from our cell phone which will only cost us 30 cents a minute to call the US. If this works it will be huge for us. We will be able to call whomever and whenever we want, as long as it's past 8pm our time or 11 your time.
We were told that we have court this Friday at 2pm. You never know around here but we are hopeful that it is true. Then we have our 10 day wait, then 2 or 3 more days getting passport photos and birth certificates, then hopefully back to Kiev. We will try to fly this time if its cheap enough. Then 2 or three days more in Kiev getting Embassy stuff done. This is all depending on whether we bump up against the Ukraine Easter holiday which is 1 or 2 days, plus weekends. So it looks like we may be back in August, woo hoo!!!.
