Just wanted to say hi. Crazy week - we're moving this weekend (started moving some things today and got our keys to our new pad)... and I had to go to the DMV with Masahiko so he could get his IL driver's license. Seems they've changed the rules (or I didn't remember them being so strict) - in order to get a driver's license in IL, you need your current license, plus a passport or birth certificate (to prove date of birth), a SS card, and two items to prove your residence address. These have to have the person's name on them. So because all of our bills have only my name, and we actually wanted to use our new address (for which the lease didn't start until today), I had to sign an affidavit. so I had to miss most of the day at work today between the DMV and moving stuff... i haven't gotten my IL license yet - I just didn't have time or energy to study.
I'm going through some stresses at work - there's been a transition (our CEO quit), and my boss is too busy in meetings all the time to really be a manager. I've had some things that I needed to discuss with her, and she doesn't return my emails. And I had a misunderstanding with a coworker today - that was not needed with all the moving stress...
and with all this stress and transition, I'm having intestinal issues, and I'm breaking out like crazy! hormones and stress are killers for skin and other stuff.
But good news is, we will be out of this tiny apartment soon, and we get our kitty Tuesday! and hopefully Masahiko will find out soon about jobs that he's been offered... so wish us well!
I'll try to catch up soon.
