What Have We Done?

The enormity of what we've done has just hit me. I'm having one of those 4 a.m. freakouts, does anyone else out there suffer from them?

I have no job and no home! What kind of a mother am I that I can't offer Lucy Fur her own house to nest in? I'm a bum! Ok, I've been a bum for all of a 24 hour period but it's terrifying to have the rug of security taken away from under your feet. Well, I gave it away really, I chose this - this is part of the life plan!

So I contacted the Immigration Lawyers yesterday and today I have the sweaty application forms in my hands (these Canucks don't beat around the bush). Our entire future rides on these seemingly innocuous pieces of paper. I'm scared to start filling them in in case something comes up that will halt us forever. I can't think what that might be.

Maybe Canada doesn't let ginger people through it's gates, who knows?

So apart from downsizing my possessions (again) and working through abandonment issues with the cat, my weekend is pretty much going to be filled with form filling. Pen pushing, I think they call it.

Hurrah.
