It all came down to

One phone call....I can hardly stand myself....but at exactly 8:36 this morning my life changed!! Literally!! This one phone call (and I NEVER thought of it being a phone call) came loud and clear all the way from the U.S. Embassy in Montreal....yes, you read that right! A phone call!!! This particular phone call said...
"We'll be issuing you your visa and we need you to send your passport to us...when will you able to get that to us?"

SERIOUSLY!?!?!?!! I'll have it to you by tomorrow!!!

"Good to know, I'll note that on your file"

Did you hear me SCREAM at that point?!?!??!?!?!! OH. MY. GOD. I'm going HOME!!!!!!!!!!! Is there really anything else to say!??!! I get to go home! To Washington!!! To live there!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Yeah...I like them apples!!! LOL

In other news...my two children are both fevered with DJ being the sicker of the two...he threw up dinner and then pooped breakfast and lunch out...my poor guy! SamSam's just got a low grade fever but she's been eating like a champ! I'm hoping it's just a 24 hour bug and they both bounce right back tomorrow...I'm also hoping I don't get it as I don't want it!!!

*sigh* all is right with the world now!!! The plan...well, they'll get my passport tomorrow by noon, they need to do their official whatevers to it....then express post it back to me in the envelope I left them two weeks ago (today, actually) which if they mail it on Monday, I might get it Tuesday...but Wednesday is a holiday (Canada Day) so Thursday looks more realistic...at which point we'll be hitting the yellow brick road on Friday!!! So 8 more sleeps!!! Putting us in Washington, in my hubby's arms for as early as the 8th quite possibly the 9th....heck, if we push ourselves it could be the 7th!!!!

I get to start Breaking Dawn tonite. The other book I finished last nite, and I gotta say...there was just too much going on it to make much sense....and too many characters that weren't done really in depth to get to know them....disappointed me really!


Til next time...ciao!
