Monthly post

humm this is a not so regular blog isn't it. Things get in the way of playing on the internet. What did we do before internet. Can you picture blogging by candlelight? Ya that is pretty lame wasn't it. In the last 4 weeks I have started a new post 6 or 7 times. I wanted to include pictures but I don't want to waste your time with bad ones so I haven't. Several months ago I started helping some friends register at a local university to take some classes. We spent the first two months working on getting the university to help us get them a visa. That didn't work so we got our own visas for them as students, it was easier and faster. That took about 2 weeks. So in June we started with the paperwork for their registrations. First we translated their passports and diplomas. Then we had those documents notarized. Then we took them to the local department of education who requested that we get copies of transcripts. When we had those we were then told that they needed to also be translated and notarized and accompanied by a copy of the institution who granted the diplomas' accreditation paperwork, which needed to be translated and notarized and accompanied by a document from the US embassy stating that it was correct. Right! Like that is going to happen. Last week our students started classes. All went well. It was decided that as they only wanted a couple semesters of language and not a degree that the translated diploma would do fine. Hurry up and wait.

Oh, about the pix;

Well, can your cat play cards?
