Anyone else burst into tears at the post office....or just me?

Got a bit teary this morning putting the big AO application envelope in my bag but thought I'd got it out of my system by the time we left the house.

Me and DS did a little selfie in the post office queue with our envelope and I'm thinking yeah minty, finally figured out how to hold your shit together but oh no, hand over the letter ask for recorded delivery then burst into tears Blush

Happy tears I might add, anxious tears, relief tears, slightly terrified tears mixed in as well but overall bloody happy as a pig in muck tears.

Only noticed when I got back in the car (having spent an hour in the shops) that my eye make up was all over my face....just to to add to my shame of being THAT women in the post office!

But it's done, it's posted, keeping everything crossed!!!

Had our celebration hearing today and had a sneaky cry after that. I reckon it will keep hitting me for a while yet! Good luck with the ao application...
