Oh my Goodness - What a week!!!!

OK... so I arrived in the UK at 6.55am on Monday morning, then got the train down to London ad 1.30pm - Saw Trinny and Susannah at Runcorn Station. One of them was talking abut Prada and how she was going to have shepards pie for tea!! Was very bizarre!

Had my interview at the Embassy in London at 10am on the Tuesday. I expected to be there for about 6 hours and be totally grilled and interrogated. Took about 45 minutes and asked me about 3 questions and it was done!!!

Met up with Georgie that day and it was really odd to see her in the UK, stayed that night at Sarah’s again, then got the train to Ely on Wednesday. Met up with Sian.

My visa arrived at 6.45am on the Thursday morning much to my relief so booked a flight back to NYC for Monday. Then got the train up to Huddersfield.

Met up with Maria and Karen and met up with everyone for a night at zetlands and some good ole cheesy dancing - ooo how I have missed all that!!
So then came back to Helsby on Friday and got my oldest friends wedding today! 20 years we have known each other - that makes me feel sooooo old!

Got an early Christmas with the family tomorrow and then its back to New York for at least the next 3 years of my life!!! I can't believe after the past 6 months of stressing and paper work and letters I am finally sorted. It’s very surreal and odd but I am so happy.

It’s all very cheesy but I feel like everything has just fallen in to place - eventually - and that it was all meant to be. This is exactly what I am supposed to be doing at this point in my life. It may not be what or where I am forever but who knows..... I am enjoying myself and surrounded by fantastic people in the UK and US so that’s all that matters!

Yay New York!!!
