Well I am now officially an alien in the USA Immigration System.
Got confirmation today that they received all my paperwork and are now on the case.
I hope to have an interview in 3-5 months to see if they like me enough to stay here.
Meanwhile I had to have a medical and they need to ensure I am not a National Security Risk etc etc etc
LOL
Should be a fun ride ahead huh?
What happens when an Aussie woman comes to visit a small town in Western Kentucky for a few months.... and are the locals ready for that ?!?

More of the frozen Mississippi River in Illinois
The Cabin we stayed in
An old windmill in Northern Illinois
We also found the Hobbits from the Shire - alive and anonymous in Illinois
Me attempting to navigate and still getting used to the "wrong" side of the car and the wrong side of the road
And Himself - freezing to death but the snow is so pretty !

January's Update - late of course lol
Well I have been so slack in not updating this blog ..
Sorry !
Things got hectic.....
I got engaged for Christmas and then married in January... so I had a lot of things to do and very little time to do them.
Now I have had to apply to the US Immigration Department to be allowed to stay here - and trust me - that appears to be no easy task.
Dave and I have had to fill out more forms than you can imagine, and I decided to retain a lawyer to help with this process as there is no room for mistakes !
I had an Immigration Medical Exam today - cost a fortune - came out of it with 3 vaccinations and a TB antibody test as well as two holes from where they took blood off me. I hate being a pin cushion.
:(
Monday I go back to find out if I pass the TB test and hopefully get my paperwork approved for the medical side of things. I don't know what else I may need. I am guessing a Police Clearance from Australia but I am not sure of that.
I will post the long awaited photos as soon as I am on the computer that has them stored.
