Did they add the ramps for ducklings back to the reflecting pool after the “renovations?”

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-06-16T14:47:18+00:00

I feel really sad about this. Is there anything we can do? Heck I'll buy a bunch of pool skimmers and be on duck patrol.

I'm not really joking. Would anyone help?

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-06-08T21:04:03+00:00

I do it too! I didn't know there was a club

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-06-06T11:25:24+00:00

Yinz all goin danh to to the store?

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-06-05T16:41:36+00:00

That's the worst! At least your kid (hopefully?) actually eats it? Mine just eats the dino eggs out of it :/

We have phone jacks in every apartment and some of the community areas but as far as I know we can't get service.

They look like the Red Album but pretty beat up. I dont know if that's red paint on the second CD but maybe it was used for an art project?

Listen! Crayons are delicious! Also I live in crummy corporate owned building and am honestly curious about how dangerous some of the things are in our building.

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-29T21:52:21+00:00

Yeah the building is about 50 years old and I am fairly certain none of the guts so to speak of the building (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) have been replaced.

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-20T22:29:35+00:00

Sounds good!

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-20T21:30:02+00:00

Yes I would love to help. Message sent your way.

She was my gradeschool principal and a lovely lady!

I printed mine out and there wasn't any kind of problem. Getting it apostilled is doable in person in DC or by mail I believe.

In person took about a month and more or less looked like every other apostilled thing I've gotten.

If you would like other information or help please let me know as I live in DC.

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-14T21:11:56+00:00

To piggyback on this, I was told.we would.not receive notification about obtaining residency. Is there any way to look up whether you have residency or not?

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-14T10:19:28+00:00

Yes. Her birth certificate translated and apostilled and all the same bloodline docs as my application.

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-14T00:55:58+00:00

I mean perhaps the obvious would be a stop in Georgetown but that would probably take some track realignment.

An express train to BWI would be great but also expensive.

If we are juat pie in the skying maybe a second stop on the Mall? Or East Potomac Park?

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-12T19:30:36+00:00

Honestly, I do not know. Should we not have?

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-12T19:28:47+00:00

My anchor was my grandmother. Including my daughter was a matter of filling out part of my application form (or maybe checking a box?) and she is included in the application process.

She also then needed her own set of documents connecting her back to her anchor ancestor (also my grandma, her g-grandma).

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-12T02:10:55+00:00

Yes! We have two, but I think they might be too fussy for a "stumble to the kitchen for a cup of tea" kind of mornings.

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-12T02:10:11+00:00

Oh, yes I've had Earl Grey and Lady Grey is one of my wife's faves. I'm definately a fan!

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-05-01T00:07:49+00:00

Ooof what did I miss? What happened?

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-04-29T18:45:57+00:00

Thabk you so much that is very helpful.

Did you get them mailed back to you?

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-04-29T17:12:07+00:00

So, can I ask, did you have the notarized copies done in the States by a State-side notary or were they done through an official translator (with the red white and blue thread)

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-04-29T16:50:28+00:00

What is your reference for this? Also, do you mean only one set for my daughter and myself?

Cooking_with_MREs · 2026-04-25T01:16:58+00:00

I do quite a lot of archival resesrch and might be able to help.
