So, I probably did not write about this before, but … last week I got an email saying my Employment Authorization card had been ordered. That was last Tuesday. Round about Friday or so, I get another email saying the same thing. Yesterday I get yet another mail that my application was approved and my card ordered. And I am thinking “WTF … these people are crazy!”
Anyway, since yesterday, I have been thinking I should be working on my resume. ..read more

My stomach woke me on Monday morning. Sour as old milk. I was anxious like nothing I knew before. It was the final day that the passport could be ready and NOT have to change our flight information. And I was anxious. Hell, anxious is a LARGE understatement. I was in panic mode.
When hubby2B woke, he also had funky-tummy … tho based on HIS symptoms, I’d have to say that it had to be sympathy rather than anything we had ..read more

So, I took my depression on the road with me this morning. I always seem to use my despondency to motivate me into DOING things. Which is a complete turnaround from a few years ago. Back then, I’d sit and wallow and mope. These last few months, I find that it is when I am feeling my lowest that I actually get things done.

All told, they spent a grand total of 15 minutes with me spread out over just over 3 hours. What a joke.
I get to the door outside and tell the guard I am there for an interview. He asks for my appointment letter and then proceeds to insist that I ..read more

So, today is the day I venture out into the country with my parents. We’re planning to give Castleton a shout, have me take a last look at Dad’s childhood home, Firefly …. and maybe, if I am feeling up to it, cousins in Galina Pt and Walkers Wood with a drive through Ocho Rios and Fern Gully. That’s the plan.
This morning, I am feeling a little wobbly on my feet …. I know why, but it doesn’t make me ..read more

Well, I’ve been poked and prodded, x-rayed, injected and questioned about some of the more intimate details of my life …. AND I survived it.
I got there at 9ish. Surprisingly they are uber organized. They have the names of everyone with appointments in a book. When you arrive, you knock on a door and say “Hi. I am <insert-name-here>.”. They tell you to have a seat and wait for your name to be called. They call you and ..read more
