Passport Woes

Eek! I'm having a hell of a time getting a passport, damn it! I have to get a special person to sign my passport, someone who has known me at least two years, and is some sort of professional type. If I was in Regina, I'd have no problem, but here...well, I'm just freaking out a little. I know a couple of law students but it seems they cannot help just yet. I know a couple of Engineers, but neither of them are P. Eng (whatever that distinction means) so no go there. My Doctor is out of the country, My Vet friend is unavailable. Gah! So, this weekend, I'll get Moustapha's cousin who is an accountant to sign for me, and I'll get the paperwork in to the passport office Monday morning. If I pay extra, and the people at the passport office feel nice, I can get my passport in 1 - 2 days, but that's only if they decide my reason is good enough. Is a free vacation in Puerto Rico enough reason for a rushed passport? I don't know. I really hope so.

Also! I still have not heard from Ian's employers, so I don't even know when I'm going! I need to know! ACK! I have to figure out what to do with Mary, and I have to let T & N know so they can arrange care for Jonah. I am highly strung at the best of times, and this is FREAKING ME OUT!! I've been trying to call them all morning, but no luck there, no one is in the office! Am I even going to get to Puerto Rico at all?? Are my hopes going to be dashed like an egg on the kitchen floor (which happened just the other night as I was cooking supper, was it a sign?)?

Okay, I've got to go bang my head repeatedly against the wall while I hit the redial button on my phone over and over and over and over......
