If I get a doctor's note, can I stay here?

So I'm wondering if I get a Doctor's note saying I'm too sick to travel, can I stay here? Probably not but it's probably worth a shot... If this is how my body takes on saying good bye to Tiffany's family, I wonder if I'll be in the hospital for saying good bye to Tiffany!

This past weekend was my last one up by Tiffany's family. We drove up on Friday night and stayed at Johnny and JoeAnn's or as it will be known from now on, at Adriana's. They're not taking Adriana to see people just yet because she hasn't had her vaccinations so they were not able to come to the bbq on Saturday. We stayed up past midnight, had a few drinks and talked.

On Saturday we had breakfast at Adriana's, went to the pond to swim with Carly, enjoyed some sun, went back to see Adriana with Celeste who hadn't seen her before and then headed to Billy and Amanda's for the bbq. It was just us, Tiffany's mom, Billy, Amanda and Carly, Erin, her new bf Brad (who will start studying for his architecture degree and knew 2 Finnish architects), Jane and Celeste. We had good time, had some drinks, good food and when it was time to leave I was fine until Erin started crying and then I lost it.

On Sunday we had breakfast with Billy, Amanda, Carly and Tiffany's dad, went to see Adriana one more time and got home later than we wanted to. After few hours at home I started to feel like crap. Achy, cold, was coughing and just felt like I was getting the flu. I'm still achy and feel out-of-breath but other than that I'm fine.

I have a project I need to be working on as well as going through my stuff to figure out what to take to Finland, what to leave here and what to throw away...and pack as much stuff I can so that if I'm not coming back till next year and Tiffany needs to move before that, she doesn't need to pack my stuff. I also need to get some WII time in as well as quality time with the cats. They won;t be getting too much sleep during the day this week because I'm constantly waking them up. There's plenty of time to sleep next week!

Look for more health updates later this week/early next week to see how this move is affecting me. It's total bullshit that I need to go back home and leave Tiffany behind when there are thousands of straight couples who can get married and sponsor their spouses to stay but we need to be separated because of this stupid immigration law that is totally FUCKED UP!!!

Talk to you later or see you in Finland.
