Habitat for Humanity

This is a post I put on my Live journal.. so instead of re-writing, I just copy and pasted it.

Well I just emailed the local Habitat for Humanity store here and asked them if they will take items of furniture that need some slight refurbishment. Which is my dresser, which is in perfect condition aside from the fact two little spots on the laminate on the dresser door has come off and two old kitchen chairs that need to have the seats redone. I then gave this man a list of the other items I will be not taking with me and I hope he's interested in ALL of them.

I would be happy and excited to give them to a good cause, but at the same time I am nervous to get rid of all my stuff in case my Man and I don't get accepted. And silly enough the ONLY thing that I can see us being denied is him not having enough money, which is crap because once I arrive I can apply for work authorization and begin to work once the EAC is sent to me. Which means I'd only have to be out of work there for maybe 2 months. I will have money saved up to get us through that time and therefore won't be an issue, but immigration can kinda be funny about these things.

If I could somehow put 5 grand in His account, then I wouldn't be worried at all, since I have no criminal record, no illnesses, and we are for real. But it's just this one thing... one thing... that gets me scared and not be able to enjoy this process like I was hoping I would.

I keep saying to myself "push through El.. it's going to be fine... push through..." Now if I could believe myself, we'd be happy! LOL
