Happy Birthday to Our Spencer
Happy 19th Birthday Son!
This is the first time that neither your Dad nor I have been with you on your birthday. It is inevitable that this happens, you are becoming your own Man.
But, as I keep telling myself, I was there for the one that started them all - the day you were born. I celebrate this date for me too you know. It may be your Birthday, but it's also my MomDay.
You complained that you had to work today. All I can do is smile and say "welcome to the real world". The only time I have not had to work on my birthday is when it fell on a weekend.
I hope you enjoy yourself today both during work and after work and I hope the weather in LA is a lot better than it is here. At least it's not 110F like it was the day you were born in Texas.
Have a great day Spencer!
Love,
Mom
PS When are you going to send me your Mother's Day photos? I need some recent pix. Thx.

Petition Update and Creativity
No new progress on the petition/K-1 Visa process yet.
They have updated the processing times for the California Service Center from 7.5 months to 5 months, so that is promising. Our petition has been in the system for 1.5 months so far give or take a few days.
We had a bit of a hiccup when I got the official notice saying they had received our petition and gave us our case number. They listed out our names and birthdays and low and behold, I had filled out my Honey's incorrectly on the main form. It was correct on all the others and there was even a scan of his passport, but still they requested a copy of his birth certificate. Sigh. We had to wait a bit for the certificate to come but all's well now as they have everything they need once again.
We have not received any more notices or anything, but I'm just glad there is a number to call and very nice, helpful people on the other end to help you update things when you screw up. Of course that triggers a notice for documentation, but that is ok, at least we know that it is actually being worked on!
Oh, and I told Honey not to take it the wrong way that I got his birthday wrong. I always mess up with Spencer's and I was ACTUALLY THERE on the day it happend.
I'm just bad with stuff like that lately.
I read an article last week that said hot flashes are a major contributor to women having memory fog and that it is temporary and things go back to normal when the flashes stop.
I'm still waiting for the stopping bit. Summer is pretty much here, it's been hot and I can barely tolerate heat without hot flashes - with hot flashes it is just not good.
I want my normal brain function back please.
I have been having funny ideas about cartoons concerning hot flashes and general menopausal issues. One day soon I will be going to a place where I can sit, relax and try my skills at drawing. I have been writing down all my toony ideas as well as other Thoughts that pop into my head.
Now I won't forget any of it. They are mostly things I want to make, and they are quite good, so hopefully some day I'll be able to work on them.
