Hubby and I went to an appointment for him, downtown, in order to finally establish his formal residence where we now live. Like so often happens here, we couldn't achieve our goal. There often seems to be something missing, or not right. Today, the clerk said she wouldn't accept a copy of the rental agreement. Had to be "an original". So we left achieving nothing. Hubby made yet another appointment for next Monday, to try again.
I cleaned up around the house in preparation for our handyman friend. I'm tired.
My 23rd wedding anniversary is coming up in a few days. I had to order all of the gifts for Hubby, including the card, on Amazon.de. I attempted to order something from a Czech website, but it was so complex I gave up on it. I asked my husband where in the heck we would even buy greeting cards. Pretty much the only places are shops called "papirnictvi". Literally, paper-related shops. But none are nearby and many are not even open. Cards are not available in the florist shops (save ones on flower bouquets), grocery stores, drugeries (special shops that sell only stuff like shampoo/toiletries), or lekarnas (pharmacies) like they do in the US. Even if they sold them, it would be tough to even know what in the heck was written on them, without Google translate. And also, I have yet to really go out much without Hubby. Hopefully next year will be much easier! I confess it would all be easier if we were in France.
Where will we settle eventually? France is the other option, but with this pandemic, making preps/explorations have been impossible. Please let this finally end soon!
