Still Waiting

Still waiting for my passport to get back - not that I expected it to be back by now anyway. I'm hoping for Monday but that may be way too optimistic. The application said 3 business days (which would be Saturday or Monday) but the website said 2 weeks - which explains why we haven't bought the tickets just yet.

I asked Jessica this morning what she recommended I take for a 3 month stay in Mozambique. "Besides the 'no, duh' stuff" I said. Then I paused, "No, actually you may want to include the 'no, duh' stuff - you never can tell how duh I'm going to be!" We had actually started a list when there were two different calls for each of our husbands (who WERE both off today). It seems there was a train derailment in Hattiesburg and Ed had to go into work (EMT) and one of Peter's co-workers got sick and he had to go in too (tax preparer). Needless to say, the list fell by the wayside.

I am trying work extra to get all the files filed away at work. They had started piling up because I ran out of drawer space and had to wait while they got another cabinet. I've almost got it caught up. I worked on it so much yesterday that I dreamed about files last night! Big, heavy, legal size files. Stacks and stacks of them. It was awful. It was nice to wake up and know that I am actually almost done with them!
