Time for celebration.

I am holding my EU passport. I did it. I got it. That is the greatest feeling in my life. Feeling I can share with the slaves that got a freedom. I got my freedom today. I can just get on a plane and go. I don't need invitations (unless I decide to go to Russia, then my mum should invite me as a guest from now on), proof of finance, visas, nothing. I can just go. And I can work anywhere I want. YYYEEESSS!!!!
I really need to celebrate that.

what has been and what will be

Finally I have decided to write something to the blog. Life is going so fast that it begins to give me frights.
If I begin to tell what has happened for the past 6 months it will take too long time...
But in short, what did happen last year...
I got a little girl,
I have changed work, sold an apartment, got a new one with a view to the sea, photos of which I still didn't manage to post...
I became a EU citizen, and while 'burning my passports on the dour-steps of the embassy', I have discoveret that I was not the only happy one, there were 2 other my former and my current citizens that were happy to get away from Russia...
I have visited almost half of the Europe, have travelled to Africa, have managed to get to 2 car accidents, but got into the mountains in Spain from the first time and managed to turn on the 1st (not the 3rd road) on a round about in Ireland.
I have managed to miss all the viokin concert of Davids in Denmark, the same applies to the parent meetings.
That is about all that I can remember from the past year. And now, it is 9 o'clock, and I need to get back to work, as noone has cancelled risk analysis, noone has canceeled currency backtesting. But my promotion has been cancelled and I have just managed to brag about that financial crisis didn't touch us....
Well, happy new 2009 year.

Press release "Citizen Dane"

And it did happen, believe it or not. 2 miracles in one day.

MIRACLE #1.
Get through to the Russian embassy after only 1 call.

MIRACLE #2.
The Russian government decided that I was not a valuable specimen for the former Soviet Union and I was released from carrying the "wrong" passport.(Which unfortunately for me results that if I ever decide to go to North Korea I would have to obtain a visa.)

Due to the confusion of the double citizenship for Miss Abby/Masha (in Russia she is a Dane, but in Denmark she is Russian), there are hopes that her case will be sorted out as well.

The older one was not affected by this event!
