So D day will soon be upon us. Our
appointment for our bio-metrics for our Green Card application is on
Tues 14th May. The last step in the ‘oh so lengthy’
process of becoming residents. As Lorraine commented – we are now
in spitting distance.
This of course prompted the discussion
over tea about me getting a job. Now it’s very real that soon I
will be able to apply for stuff, I actually feel quite terrified by
the prospect. It means breaking free from my little ‘Sian Bubble’
and joining the real world of the big bad Americans. Not to mention
the questions of ‘what exactly will I do?’, ‘how will I find
something part time?’, ‘will they pay me more than 10 cents an
hour?’ and of course, ‘will anyone actually want me?!’
This was enough
to prompt a very sleepless night. That and the fact that it may be
the end of April but it actually feels like August. It was just too
hot to sleep. Not that I am complaining mind. I post this picture
only to remind myself of how wonderful living here can be!
At 1am I’d had enough and got up and
did a bit of work on my stories. ‘The Word Thief’ is nearly
done. Please let someone publish it so I don’t have to look for a
‘real job’
