Welcome springtime...

It's been a little while since I wrote anything in my blog. I apologize for the break but there has just been so much going on that I haven't had much time and usually what little time I do have is spent regrouping for the next round of whatever is to come. I don't mean to sound ominous because, honestly, it's all been good.

First, we got notice that the last round of immigration paperwork for Alexander was received. We had one set back. I needed to send a copy of my 2008 tax return and I sent the wrong one. Not to worry though, we got a notice that I had sent the wrong one and we had 87 days to get it in. (87 days...I have no idea how they chose that arbitrary number of days, but oh well...) I had it here at home so we got it in right away. Alexander has his biometrics appointment on Monday in Milwaukee. Basically, that means fingerprinting and other identification things. I'm taking Monday off to drive up there with him. We've been warned by my friend Jamey, who's been through this with her husband, Miguel, to dress loosely, wear no metal anything, and leave our cell phones OFF! Immigration Services does not mess around and we don't want to risk having to be strip searched! LOL So, all of that is rolling right along and it should be soon that Alex gets his Green Card and Social Security Number. Then he's legal! Haha, well, he's actually legal now but he'll be even legaller. LOL!

At work things have been crazy as all get out. It's still as chaotic as it ever was but there is some light at the end of this tunnel. I've orchestrated a way to get, at least, some of my old duties back which makes me happy. I've been feeling rather useless at work so this change will help my work esteem for sure. And I hope will help the program I'm working in too. I love my clients though, I have to admit. It's been really good getting back to actually having more client contact than my last job. With the new plan for me, I'll still get that but have more supervisory duties. I don't know, maybe I'm just a bossy broad but I know I am also a really good supervisor. And I love to do that as well.

So that's what I've been up to. I'm trying to keep up with emails from my beloved Fikagänget and family but sometimes I fall behind in that too. Hey, I'm only human!
