That's great news, billytea. One of the sadder feelings in a separation is that you're losing all that relationship that you've invested in. That this person knows you so well, and you're losing that. But you haven't, it sounds. Has Bec sorted out her visa issues?
If folks have any spare job-ma handy, please direct it toward EM. She had a good interview and should know by Wednesday. She's been out of work for a year, has exhausted her resources (and mine) and this is would be an excellent fit for her. (Plus she could start paying me back.) Also, obviously, it would be much more stable for Emmett if his mother was gainfully employed.
Has Bec sorted out her visa issues?
Not yet, though she has her employer's full backing. I think it's quite likely it'll get sorted out in her favour.

Not if she keeps spelling "favour" with a "u"! That's a dead giveaway! Oh wait...you don't have to pretend you were born here and adopt the accent do you?

Nah. I think it helps, in fact. Last year a survey found that America's favourite [sic] foreign country [sic] was Australia. So that's nice.
Oh, on accents, apparently Bec thinks mine has become stonger (i.e. more Australian) since moving back. Also, apparently people have been telling her that she's picked up a bit of an American accent since I left, though frankly I think that's just crazy talk. She sounded just the same to me.
Aww, cute Annabel pics. I love the one in the swing. Wow, she's getting big.
BT, glad for the good phone call, and may creepy guy stop making with the creepy with Bec.
New URL for my flickr pictures, and new Lily pictures too! We went up and met with my Aunt Doreen today (without having to cross the border!), so we have the first picture of Lily with any of my extended family. We also added a bunch of pictures of Lily with various members of Paul's family (mother, father, sister--I think we failed to get a picture of her with Paul's uncle when he was in town. Hmph.) [link]
Lily and Mama are gorgeous.
Annabel is adorable (and walking already!).
Gloomcookie is tired, yet awake. Pity.

Yeah. I'm sure he doesn't mean to be creepy, but really.
That's really, really creepy. My thought while reading was that Bec should talk to her pastor, rather than the guy, and let the pastor do the dirty work.
That's a good suggestion, Cindy.
Good morning everyone. I am feeling like a slug. This is not a good thing.
