Delay

We've had to delay moving until next Saturday, May 20.

Who knew that I would need proof of legal residence in the United States to get a home mortgage? Probably lots of people, but no one I talked to. I was supposed to have said proof a few months ago, but USCIS made an error. Thursday I drove to Indianapolis to correct this error. Ironically, if I was hispanic, like most immigrants, the mortgage people probably would have thought to address this issue sooner, and we wouldn't have had to delay.
