The Waiting Is The Hardest Part


Today is July 11.  This was the first day that I was hoping to board that Qantas 747 out of Los Angeles and start my new work and life adventures a half a world away.  But due to a back log of Business Visa applications in Sydney I am still grounded in Boston waiting for my visa to be finalized!  

The movers came on Monday and took away my belongings.  A shout out goes to Gentle Giant for doing a great job.  Not sure where they fall in competitiveness of pricing but if they are more expensive it has to be worth it.

I am still hoping to get my Visa any day now.  

I think my new departure date will not be until a week from today.  Again, this is all relative to the Visa process.  Good times!  

Look back for more updates!

(p.s. - the picture above is named 'Waiting')

Wow - frustrating! I'm sure you'll be down under soon! :-) Keep your chin up. Nice pic btw.

Thanks Jal. It is frustrating but not too bad right now. If I am still in the US in two weeks then I may be a bit beyond frustrated! At least Boston in the Summer is a good place to be.

True dat! Do you still have to go into the office while you wait? Count me in for drinks anytime!

Yes I will be back in the office tomorrow and next week waiting for the Visa to be issued.
