I had a conversation with a man today, who is the same age I am. He told me that his kids were all grown and gone. He had had children very early in life and told me I should have done the same, so that way I could be free to do whatever I wanted.... Continue Reading →
Why didn’t he just contact the American Embassy in the first place?
I have been working on this for over two months now, possibly longer. But he never wanted to listen when I told him what needed to be done on his part in order to obtain daughter's passport.

Greek Law vs. American Law

Use as intended
I am still so upset. I just couldn’t write this even over the weekend. I knew that if I would have, I would have used so much profanity and that wouldn’t have been a pretty site. Use as intended??!!!! How can I use as intended when it isn’t even the correct document needed in order... Continue Reading →

A week extension…really??
What is another week going to do? Is it really going to help them come to an agreement? I doubt it. I bet they got the approval for their one week extension all because they didn't want to spend the entire weekend working. I wish the Government would just stop messing with my plans.

Going a different route
As stubborn as he is, it’s no wonder why he wanted to take another route. Let’s do things the hard way instead of getting things done much easier and in as little time as possible. Let’s just let time roll on by in hopes that airline ticket prices go sky high, so much in fact,... Continue Reading →
