We basically went through the list and discussed the pros and cons of each program and went over why we ranked each program in each spot. It turns out we were actually much more confident in our list than we thought. We didn't end up changing anything, after discussing it with them and it just confirmed that we had done as much researching, thinking, praying and discussing as possible. I don't think we could be any more prepared. So I think our list is final!
Drew certified it tonight and we plan to forget about it (or at least try to). Technically you can certify your rank list as many times as you wish, and the NMRP just uses the last list you certifiy. That way people can certify it and still change their mind and recertify it. But we plan to just leave our list as is and not touch it (even though the deadline is not until Wednesday night). Our fear is that if we do any changing of the order at this point it will be a rash decision which we will later regret.
It feels good to have our list finalized. I feel like I can exhale a bit!
I intend to get to some of your questions this week! I hope everyone had a great weekend!

hey there... I am so nervous about submitting that list-I wish I felt as confident as you do. But I'm sure that things will work out for the best for all of us.
March 18th is going to be here soon! I just filled out my paperwork for a personal day from work. ahhh.. I can't believe in 3 weeks we both will know where we will be building our new homes!
btw... thanks for the kind message you left me last week. I know I've been MIA. I've just been stressed and haven't had much to blog about. But thanks for thinking of me:)
Congrats! This is such an exciting step! I will be thinking of you guys on Match Day!
Congrats on making it to this point. I'm sure it felt like you would never make it. I'll be keeping you guys in my thoughts and will be eagerly awaiting for Black Monday and Match Day. Just remember, no matter what's in that envelope, it isn't forever, and you'll find a way to make it through it.
Best of luck to both of you. I know how anxiety-ridden match day can be...I hope it all works out the way you want it to...I'm sure you'll be successful in your next steps together. My thoughts are with you.
On a lighter note, I always appreciate your comments...it's good to know you're there...and I like what you have to say. I wish I were better about commenting...
