Even though Kim told me that I could get my passport all set up when I got to Marshfield, I found that I can get it locally at the clerk of courts office, picture and all. With the 4-6 week wait, that means I SHOULD have my passport in hand and be ready and able to border hop by the time I'm in a trainer's truck, instead of having to wait. I got the passport CARD, as I don't see a need for air travel over borders...unless it's Flight for Life or something emergency-ish like that. Cost me $30 for the card, $25 for filing fees and $10.50 for the photo. Not as expensive as I was afraid it would be, and convenient since everything was in one location.
The only thing I was warned about was that if I got my passport now, I would need a certified copy of my birth certificate to send with the paperwork AND I need one to take to Marshfield...and if I waited to have Roehl apply for me, I think I would only need one copy. Since I just happen to have two copies, this isn't a problem, but I can see how it could be.
It's nice to feel like I'm actually doing something other than twiddling my thumbs...and I'm appreciative of Kim's assistance so I know I'm doing what needs to be done to keep on track.

Kim called me this morning to touch base and make sure I'm still ready to start April 9. My boyfriend heard her asking and yelled, "she's ready YESTERDAY! Just take her!!" Gee, it's so nice to know I'm wanted at home.
2 weeks and counting...Treefork and notezbngrn71 Thank this. -

He's probably saying this because he knows you need to DO SOMETHING!!! My wife was like that when I took off. She knew I was needing to work and sitting at home was only making me CRAZY!
Then again....... Ah, let's not talk about that.
