it are here!

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

and now on the home stretch

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, 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

poked and prodded … and done.

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
