Finally heard from Social Worker!

We got an email from our social worker this evening, to say that everything is now sorted out with our Local Authority and we can start work on our new homestudy. Trouble is our social worker can't start working with us until the 7th July ANOTHER three weeks away!! I am going completely mental!! We first told our LA that we wanted to change our application from China to Ethiopia at the end of February - 3 1/2 months ago!!! Aaaargh!!!! Our social worker said she could work with us on Mondays or Saturdays, in our reply we asked if we could do both!! We are conscious of how much time has already passed, and that we are away for two weeks in early August - we don't want to waste any more time. I've been pressing "Send/Receive" on my emails ever since and I feel sick and my stomach is churning!! I guess that as it is now after 11pm I won't get a reply until tomorrow sometime - urgh!!!!
