Primeiro Contato do Consulado!

Hoje, chego do trabalho depois de 3:45h de engarrafamento dentro de um ônibus que liga Rio à Niterói. (Isso com o trânsito "normal" levaria uns 30 minutos no máximo.)

Pense num calor infernal, ônibus mega lotado, e TODAS as janelas fechadas, porque de repente começou a cair um temporal que só piorou o calor e eu alí só pensando: Ai meu Deus.. tudo q eu queria agora era deitar no gelo, sair de férias, imigrar, Canadá, ir pra Montréal... esses eram meus pensamentos desesperados....rs

Nossa... essa rotina está me matando aos pouquinhos... :/
E pra piorar, hoje a polícia do Rio entrou em greve eu que já sou medrosa com a violência aqui, saí do trabalho meio tensa... Aqui já é ruim, com a polícia trabalhando, imagine então sem ela? Mesmo sem policiamento adequado, tinha vários blocos de carnaval nas ruas do centro do Rio e eu deseperada pra ir pra casa logo.

Enfim... sobre o título do Post, assim q eu cheguei em casa e fui checar meu e-mail (vicio terrível! rs) vi de imediato um Email do Consulado na minha Inbox... e meu coração ficou como???? Imediatamente eu comecei a suar frio enquanto o mouse se dirigia para abrir o e-mail...

Quando abri, vi que era aquele e-mail, informando que eles receberam meus docs no dia 17/03 (me roubaram 1 dia!!! Pois eu entreguei pessoalmente dia 16/03/11).

Pelo menos eles tocaram na minha papelada, né?... espero que em breve eu possa acompanhar meu processo no e-cas, pois eu tentei acessar e vi que ainda não é possível. :(

Sei que esse e-mail não diz muita coisa... mas só saber que as coisas estão andando, me deixa menos estressada. Pois estamos há 11 meses esperando algum contato do consulado. E esse foi nosso primeiro contato nesse quase 1 ano de Etapa Federal!

Enfim.. é isso..

Segue o email que recebi abaixo..

Apenas editei o nome e dados do processo.

Au revoir!
