I suck at keeping old paperwork. ARGH.
I thought I was doing myself a favor by finally updating my license with my current address (I've only been at it for 3 years!). SO, I get this done, only to find out that if my license was issued sooner than 6 mos. ago, and if my surname is different than the surname on my birth certificate, I need a TON of paperwork to prove who I am. SHEESH. Like I kept my first marriage certificate???
So, I am drowning in old paper, have an official copy of my birth certificate on the way and am going to pay dearly for expedited passport service.
I just have to remember, it will all be worth it in the end, right?
(oh why didn't I just go back to my maiden name???)
