Visited the city offices again today. Good news, ‘Chelle and Sheridan both have their Visas for the next nine months. I have my extension until January while they check my health insurance.

In all it has been a wonderful (and by wonderful I mean enlightening, if not wholly frustrating) experience figuring out the process. So that said, I’m having some coffee from an English roasting company that doesn’t roast your beans until you order them, how great is that?!

All for now.
