Woo hoo! Thanks Beth for the feedback. Very reassuring. And actually, as evidence of just what an anal geek I am, I already have the book from the American Women's Club of Dublin. It was helpful, but actually the website I listed is even better and not much more expensive.<BR/><BR/>Hope you keep on reading, even though I don't get to the actual living in Ireland part for another couple of months. Here's hoping you keep on enjoying it too!Sirmeljahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14938342894893584543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698400921868577046.post-41429114336210712992007-04-05T21:24:00.000+01:002007-04-05T21:24:00.000+01:00Oh, and check out the American Women's Club Dublin...Oh, and check out the American Women's Club Dublin - they publish some sort of moving to Ireland booklet but I was already here by the time I found that out.

There's a Unitarian fellowship in Cork that is increasing every month so that might be an option for you, and there are lots of hairdressers who can do black hair (at least in Dublin, but I know Cork must be the same). Now the TV stuff is a little bit harder, but we do get all of the shows you named, just a little later... ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698400921868577046.post-33606856486239536972007-04-05T00:39:00.000+01:002007-04-05T00:39:00.000+01:00Battlestar is my new must watch show.

How am I supposed to wait till 2008??<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure yet how I'm going to handle the hair issue. I'm guessing there must be somebody in Dublin who does this. They do have immigrants from Africa in Ireland. Maybe an every 6-week trip to Dublin? I wonder how expensive it is to make the hop over to London?<BR/><BR/>Or, maybe an afro?Sirmeljahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14938342894893584543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698400921868577046.post-62395741992514285612007-04-03T04:00:00.000+01:002007-04-03T04:00:00.000+01:00Arlene,I am cracking up.

It's good that you were willing to take the plunge and to get out of your comfort zone. However it workd out you will grow by it. Don't be afraid to step out into the unknown. The Lord has promised to NEVER leave you nor forsake you. (See Joshua 1:1-9) All that you fear will be found to have been only fog and shadows: the Lord will clear them all away as you go forward in faith with your hands in His<BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/>Daddy<BR/>Ps.
