I Can Prove I Was Born

I have been successful in several things today...but my main goal was not met. I have just managed to add a photo the same way I used to...and...managed it without having to pay for the premium blog app. Yay! My birth certificate was handed to me by the UPS man...the first time a delivery person has knocked on my door since before Covid. So my certified birth certificate with my parents names on it is now in my hands. I thought it was interesting that Mother's maiden name is spelled wrong. I will NOT be pointing that out! As soon as I had my certificate in hand, I began the process of making an appointment with the Post Office. I had no problems when I made the appointment a couple of weeks ago. But today it was not as easy...took me forever...getting hung up over and over. I finally moved to my laptop...my second try I was successful and have an appointment tomorrow morning. Hoping that I can report tomorrow night that my passport application has been submitted. Next I will concentrate on my star driver's license...have to get that done before a week from Friday. One of my goals was to have all the ornaments off the tree...but...didn't meet that goal. But LOTS more are off the tree and another box is filled...so full that I don't dare lift it on my own...just put another box on top of that one and have it about filled. I brought some of the small boxes, that breakable ornaments are stored in, out to the family room to pack up the ornaments while I watch the Olympics. The tree is very much barer...but still probably more than I realize on it. There are a lot of ornaments! I finally had to stop an hour or so ago as my back was saying it was time to sit and stitch for a while. And, that is what I plan to do this evening. I got a special treat for myself...a cross stitch order. Before I got into my new things, I did some organizing of my current cross stitch projects...then added the new one to those projects...and, then started a new sampler, a Quaker Sampler...just two colors of silk. I got some pretty linen for it, too. To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
