I tried so hard to sleep in to minimize the wait time...I ended up waking up an hour earlier than normal.
I don't know if I could focus on a book, I'm too anxious. LOL

LOL Books ease my anxiety!!! hmmm....do you play any video games/can you take a good walk? Anything to get you distracted!!

We didn't , VFS doesn't provide shipping labels to my wife's current address. We used DHL, provided a return waybill which will be charged to my wife's company account.

Ah, yes, I remember. In that case, you should get a tracking number by email from Sheffield once they have made the decision and arranged for the return shipping.

I'm gonna watch some good 'ol The Price is Right (because i'm a 70 year old in a 25 year old's body lol)
I feel like some mindless tv will help. If not, I'll definitely be consulting my bookshelf.

I've been up since 530am, fed the horses, cleaned the house top to bottom, trying not to stress eat!! The bad thing is, I may not be home when my package is delivered.....I have to take someone to the airport, no other way for him to get there.....I'm hoping they won't require a signature.  The last time they just left it on the porch.   Not sure I can survive another day of waiting  :(
