So today we went by to check the mail one last time and that fucking certificate of no records finally came. That has been the biggest fucking pain in the ass of everything we've had to get. First of all, it's taken over a fucking year to get. We submitted a request and were counting down the thousands of numbers ahead of us. Then our request was processed so we awaited the certificate. But nope! Instead we got a letter saying we had to submit another request for another search. Fuck! Thankfully this was only took a month or so, instead of a god damn year. And when it was processed I still didn't get my hopes up. But then I opened the envelope and there it was! A fancy certificate of no records. A big fancy seal on it. And no more steps to take. We're done. Well, with phase 1 that is. I'm sure I'm going to look back on this and think "Fuck! That certificate was a fucking cake walk compared to this...." But I am still optimistic. I will not give up on this. And I look forward to reading back on this blog from the Italian countryside with my EU passport in hand. I know it's worth it.
