Can someone please just kill me now?

AmoroAgain

I'm molto stressed out right now.  All of this move crap is starting to take a huge toll on me because nothing is ACTUALLY planned, and we move in like one week.  I fly to Sweden tomorrowfor house hunting, the Italian government wants me to come in tomorrow afternoon for an appointment for my permit to stay (which I HAVE to have from somewhere so I'm freaking legal while we work things out with Sweden immigration), and I can't get to that appointment because, well, I'm on a plane!  It's kind of non-refundable.  Aaand if the government would get their process down, instead of making people come back a bajillion times, that would be awesome too.

H accidentally took the card I'm authorized on with him to Sweden, so now we have to shift some money around in the US so I can have it for the trip tomorrow, which, we don't even know if that's going to happen because the person who handles our US banking is out of the office, so a back up is supposedly doing it. 

I was up allll night trying to calm down, but I'm stressed to the max right now and it's really starting to affect my body.  I just got horribly sick after having lunch and now I'm all icky and not wanting to do the 1million things I have to before I leave tomorrow morning. 

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Sorry, Amoro, that sucks.   But, take a deep breath and remember... you're moving to Sweden!  That's exciting.  Have a glass of wine and then start tackling the to-do list.  Good luck

AmoroAgain

heh.  I'm actually having a cup of tea right now because my stomach is in such bad knots. 

I'm trying to focus on the long term "YAY SWEDEN!" But I have to go through so much crap to get there that I'm like. GRRR. lol

Yeah, what kiki said: this all blows right now, but in another week, you're through with Italy for good. Hang in there! I almost said "keep us posted", but I already know you will

AmoroAgain

LOL!!  "Yeah Amoro, you're a total AW anyway!!" hahaha

opalsky007

LOL. Nah, I know you're just bored to death and need to vent a lot. Besides, I swear a lot days you're the only thing keeping us talking. Okay, maybe not yesterday. Yesterday was just weird--WTF is up with all the crusaders? Or one crusader wearing many screen names?

AmoroAgain

It's dead slow in here today too.  I wasn't really on until last night, and then I missed the awesome page from sophistersomethingorother.

So sorry your having a hard time of it. Try to relax.Have you made a list. Sometimes just putting on paper a list of things to do and checking them off makes me feel better. I guess it makes me feel like I'm accomplishing something.

So drink your tea,breath, and write it down.

Yeah, I hope she's fake. I mean, I know there's stupid out there, but I like to have at least some faith in people.

AmoroAgain

Yeah, KD, I've made my list.  Now I just haev to get off my ass.

Oh Opal, you're much nicer than I am.  I lost faith a while ago. lol

I'm sorry. All I have to offer is that in my experience, if they are disorganized enough to jerk you around, they're disorganized enough to bend rules for you, so hopefully Italy will let you reschedule your appointment. Just go talk to a young man and cry about how you missed your appointment - and hopefully his Latin blood won't let him stand to see you so upset.

Hang in there Amoro.  Can you set a reward of some sort for yourself partway through this process?  Like, if you find an apartment, you can get a massage?  Something to stay focused on and stress relief to boot!

Hey can I use then in my life too? I made it to work and back I get a massage? :D

I think that's a great idea. Dont let yourself get run down.

AmoroAgain

Duuuude.  Squirrly, I would give my left nut for a massage right now.  Hm.  Will have to think this out!

Emily, if only it worked like that.  They give appointments, but what they mean is, "Your stuff is processed, so you can show up, and like the rest of the smucks, take a number and wait all day." Sweet.
