Today's the day! 1 week ago

Today I will take my pictures to renew my passport at the Post Office during my lunch break. Once the pictures are taken, I will mail off my application and send it in…yay!



Passport Application Form 1 week ago

Today I printed the passport renewal form (DS-82) from the US Postal Service website. The renewal fee is $75.00 – now all I have to do is fill out the form and go get my pictures taken. Now that my hair is done, I may actually do this on Friday during my lunch break…we’ll see.

Done! 2 weeks ago

My passport is renewed, I can go on holiday!



Called the post office 2 weeks ago

I just called the post office to inquire about renewing my passport. It costs $75 and if I get the pictures taken at the post office there is an additional $15 fee – making the grand total $90. Now that I have the information, I will go down to the post office an pick up the application. After that, I’ll decide when I’m going to have my pictures taken and send it off for processing.

I’m definitely going to wait until I get my hair done before I take the pictures. I want my passport to have a nice picture of me since I’ll have it for the next 10 years.

Passport office phoned 3 weeks ago

It’s ready! Because of pending postal strikes my husband is going to pick it up from the office.

I find this outrageous, and forgive me if you disagree, but after a postal strike, they sometimes just shred ALL the mail, rather than deal with a backlog. So that was a risk I couldn’t afford. I know they did this in Italy a few years ago, and it has been mooted here.

I'm not really giving up on this one .. 3 weeks ago

I just want to move it into another more generic goal. But if I delete it I’ll also be deleting the 1 cheer it has and I’d feel bad for the person who kindly gave it to me. So it’s relegated to the ‘I’ve given up’ list unfortunately.

After all – of course I can’t give this one up… how else will I get to achieve all the travelling I’ve listed as other ‘someday’ goals ;)

Good news - they've banked my cheque 4 weeks ago

So my application must have arrived. Hurrah. Even though the post office’s website doesn’t record it as delivered – very poor.

Worried my passport application is caught up in the postal strike 4 weeks ago

%^$£*!!HSH curses, I’ve got recorded delivery on my application, but a week later, it still hasn’t been delivered.

Please, please arrive safely!
