I received a large envelope today.  It was from the consulate.  From Anna Vigelli.  I opened it with hope that all my documents were cozy inside. 

Negativo.

She sent me back all the documents I forgot about.  The copies of my great-grandparents documents but nothing that I gave to Mr. Alberto Oddo on January 3rd 2007.  Please let's all together ask the Universe to have Mrs. Vigelli find the other file my ORIGINAL documents are floating around in and have her promptly send them back to me.  I emailed her back with all of the documents I needed in BOLD.  Since she answered my first email, I am thinking positively that she will answer again. 

This too shall pass. 

a presto amici
