ok - i confess. i am feeling anxiety about our greencards. not that we won't get them, but just that i want them NOW. patience is not one of my juiciest fruits, if you know what i mean. waiting is *so* hard... i feel like my life is at the mercy of how much effort a stranger feels like putting into their day - based on whether or not they got the donut they wanted from the cafeteria or if they had a nice date the night before! ack!
basically, i think i'm just tired of wading through the red tape and forms and fees. it hangs over my head, nagging in the back of my mind behind every other thought. i weigh every future possibility - even family vacations - against whether or not we will finally have our permanent resident status "by then"....
i am praying hard, and trying to wait patiently. but ... *sigh*

I'm praying with and for you!
We all wait, over and over. When this is resolved, you will be waiting for the next thing. Waiting is a very real form of suffering in some of it's shapes. But on the other hand, waiting is all about the surprised of unfolding life.
I am waiting too. Waiting with you for your green card and all your other dreams. And with V as he builds his life. And with my own self.
Thinking of getting an office gerbil. Just a little pet that could live in a drawer. We need some fun around here.
Not sure if Marilyn's last entry was a total non-sequitur or a proposed solution to the waiting problem.
hmmm....
