out of my comfort zone
This whole permanent residency application process has been pushing me
out of my comfort zone. I've had to market myself, ask for things,
make phone calls and push my employers in various ways. Luckily this
morning's request (vaccination records from my doctor's office) went
smoothly and I'm all set for my medical exam this afternoon. I just
have to ask the civil surgeon if I can get an official copy of the TB
test result to bring to the hospital so that I don't have to get
tested twice (verified that yesterday).
I miss being on vacation. Looking at some of the pictures that people
snapped of me, I'm reminded of how relaxed I was and full of smiles.
Riding to work on my first day back cured that right quick. :)
In good news, it's T-1 month to my birthday, and just over a week to
cris's. I'm not doing anything big for mine (since I'm going
to a wedding in Indiana), but it's nice to get back to an even year. :) Edit: never mind, cris is doing something special for me. :) Though I'm a bit annoyed, my Amazon wishlist had been depopulated. :/ I went to put two books on it today and that's all that's there now. :(
I'm looking forward to the camping trip we're going on next
weekend, and beginning to get excited about our November vacation.
