Stress

I just had a large amount of stress rush over me. I received an email from my case officer who is taking care of my visa, which is positive news since it is the first time I hear from her. Also good news is that she is trying to process it in the time frame which they originally told us - 5 months since I lodged it at the beginning of July so then it should be done at the beginning of December. However, she gave me a huge list of things I have to send in to complete the file. Even though I have been in a genuine relationship with Rhys for almost 5 years now (our anniversary is in a month ;) ), it is not very easy to prove. We are still young so we still keep our finances completely separate. Due to his job, we have been living for free in apartments so we don't have many leases or rent payments that we can prove with and with Skype and the great invention of the internet, we can hardly prove that we have kept in contact during the times when we have been separated.

So tomorrow starts a big job to try and track as much stuff down, research through all old emails, bills, bank statements, photos etc. Which is also a bit of a problem because 3 of my external harddrives have decided to crash on me this year leaving me without any photos. Thank god for uploading photos on Facebook right?

Wish me luck!
