Not even sure where to start...

The last time I looked at this, John and I were getting ready to submit the immigration paperwork.... That was a while ago.  John got approved to sponsor me superquick and it moved onto Buffalo and then Seattle.  We were asked for more information and thought, "This is going so fast!"  I'm pretty sure that is when we jynxed ourselves...

So, now we are waiting... somewhat patiently.  I'm bored and frustrated while John is like the Virgin Mary; just waiting patiently, checking with our immigration lawyer everyonce in a while. 

I'm watching time pass.  It's getting to be Autumn again.  The breeze is getting crisp and cool.  Every evening feels like Halloween.  I almost picked up corn stalks but figured I needed to wait until October 1st at least.  John and I were sitting by a campfire a few nights ago;  It was wonderful.  We had s'mores and spiderdogs.  Mostly, I enjoyed the contrast between the heat on my face and the cool around me.  Well, at least until we had to leave, which is when we got to find out just how cold it was getting.  By the time we got home, the temperature read-out in the car said 2 degrees celsius.  Yikes. 

Another sign of the changing seasons was having our softball tournament.  The team didn't do too well, but we were missing a few of our seasoned players.  Game over for the summer (Joey and I are breathing a sigh of relief).  The perk is that badminton and volleyball are starting up.  Technically badminton was last wednesday but we forgot.  Those will keep us occupied until summer comes back....

I feel like winter didn't end that long ago... why is summer over already?  Oh yeah, I'm in Canada....
