Ever since I bought my plane ticket the distance has become harder to deal with. :(

I'd been okay up until now, really.

This week has been horrible so far. I miss Alex as much as I did after I'd left in January (of course the distance always sucks, but it's a little more painful when you've just left someone - I'm sure you can all empathise). I thought it'd be easier once I'd booked my plane ticket, but it's not. I think it's because I know it's so close.

I don't want to plan a wedding or worry about money, I just want to be there!

I understand your feelings exactly - I've got so much to do on the wedding planning, house fixing, flight arranging, and work sides that I'm a bit looney at this point. I leave for Kiev in 2 days and the interview is next Wednesday after Tuesday's medical exam. I just want all this to be over, no more planning, no more painting, or waiting, or any of that. I've been waiting for too long already and I want it done. On top of it all I pulled a calf muscle in last night's softball game so my Kiev excursion will include a lot of limping. Oh well, thank goodness Olga's a doctor - I'll be her first american patient.

Well Gareth called the London Embassy today since our stuff supposedly got mailed to them on the 19th and still nothing. We got the 2 to 3 week period and well next week hits 3 weeks. He asked if him having medical already now would mess anything up and they assured him that no it wouldn't. We are just hoping now that he put the bug in their ear about having medical already and that they should have file by now that they will speed up a bit........I know wishful thinking aye?

Our hopes for a September interview is slipping away more and more each passing day...SIGH.

WOw Blake you have lots on your plate right now and too darn cute about you being Olga's first American patient tee hee! I am sure she will take very good care of you ;)

Yeah Michelle that is the one with the corset back though huh? I tried that one too but was not as flattering on me as the one with plain zip back and then the added sash to bring attention to my waist! But yup Love them pickups on the skirt of dresses! Love feeling like a yummy cake heh heh!

Great advice Chantal, I will definitely use it. :thumbs:

Well tomorrow is my flight to Kiev to be with Olga for the interview. I can't believe that this day has finally arrived :dance: I went back and read the openning pages of this thread and now it seems like such a long time ago, hell, it was a long time ago! But here I am taking the last couple steps in this long journey. My flight doesn't finally get into Kiev until 1:30 in the am Monday, at which time I will sit and wait at the train station until 6:30 when Olga arrives.

Although my leg is much improved today, I'm sure I can summon up a limp that will require immediate medical attention. Iwill write from Kiev to let you all know how it went. Your good wishes are greatly appreciated.

And So It Begins......
