get a passport

I am very close to my savings goal for this, if not as far as I’d like to be.

I should have enough saved to be able to get this done in December. Crossing fingers that nothing else happen in the meantime.

I have almost 60.00 saved for this now.

I had to raid savings for this to pay bills, thanks to not being able to work as much as before. Grr.

Savings is coming along. I should have enough in about 3 months or so, at the latest.

I have started a savings account specifically for this goal. It’s been hanging on for too long.

My mom has offered to make this one of my big presents, should I so desire it. I’m not sure, yet. With the economy having taken a nosedive, traveling is very much on the back burner right now, in favor of basic survival.

We should get a fairly decent refund back, taxwise. When we do, some of it is going to go to passports for both of us.

Husband is going to go to the courthouse tomorrow and I’ll go with him and get copies, or know why.
In the meantime, I’m going to set up an account to get money set aside to pay for them-it will be 97 dollars apiece. Ouch.

Sent the husband down to get his name change certificate and they refused to give him a copy because he didn’t have the case number. She was really rude about it too. Wouldn’t help him look it up or anything. It would seem to make sense that if he needed a copy, the case number wouldn’t be readily available by him, no?
She also refused to give him a copy of mine, saying I needed to be there in person. Bull. It’s a public record and should be available to anyone, whether I’m there or not, to the best of my knowledge.
In any case, I’m going to have to figure out how to get down there and get copies for both of us. Grrr.
