Time off work for Appointments

My online adoption ally, Rob, posted an adoption cost post on his site, and it was invaluable to me, so I decided to include a running tally on our site as well. Besides the monies paid, these classes and appointments take hours of coordinating and actually attending. So far, Daniel has had to take time off work for the following appointments - this does not include traffic time:


Oct. 26: Orientation meeting (which lasted 2 hours)
Oct. 28: drop off application & fees (30 minutes out of Daniel's way to work)
Nov 08: Intake Meeting (which lasted 3 hours)
Nov 18: the Physical (2 hours including wait time in Dr's office)
Nov 21: TB tests (couldn't be done same-day as Physical)
Nov 23: the Live Scan (they told us about 30 minutes, it was 2 hours)
Dec 13: the First Aid & CPR class (8 hours)
