So once we got the visa I was super pumped thought he'd be here by the end of the week but not he had a bunch of things to get finished and you all heard me wine about how I'd have to wait. I think a lot of the things he had to do could have went better.
We got an abstract and he had to go to Kingston 3 times to get it done. The first time he went they said they couldn't do it because they found an unpaid ticket from 2010 for him which he had to pay first. They also couldn't tell him WHERE he had to go to pay it. He finally payed it in TRELAWNY and went back to Kingston same day to get the abstract. He got there and there was a hand written sign on the door saying that they were in a meeting and closed. So he had to trek back again. Third time is a charm. He was also told he needed the abstracts to be addressed to specific companies which I think is stupid because he needs it for whichever company hires him. So I made a list of companies and then they told him he could only have 3. RUDE. Oh well. So we picked the top 3 perspectives and got abstracts for those 3 companies.
Next he had to get steel and make the grills for his new house so his mother could move in and be safe on her own. He has been building a new house for as long as I've known him and its almost done. She is now on her own as I have taken her last child away from home.
He also tried to get transcripts from his high school to proove how much schooling he has. I am trying to avoid him having to do
Once everything was finally done and he had collected the reference letters from his bosses he could finally come here to me! I booked a flight with Aeroplan miles I didn't know I had. The flight cost 77$ in taxes with the points, to get him from KIN to YEG (Edmonton).
He finally landed and I was a little late. My older sister told me to make a sign so I started that with like 30 mins to go. I had planned on going to get him by myself and then my entire fam decided they were coming so we ended up being late and I didnt get to use my sign. haha. We took a picture with it in front of a wall that said Edmonton Alberta after I ran to find him at the luggage carousel.
Thursday I had off so we went and got his SIN card, AB healthcare card and opened a chequing account. Tioday I have to work at two jobs which SUCKS. and then tomorrow we are going to CALGARY to surprise some other friends!!!
I have surprised 4 people so far!! Caught them all on video!
And that is all she wrote!
