I am too hasty now...I have been going nuts trying to book this flight for NEXT THURSDAY!!!

It is pretty much in the bag but honeslty none of this has been easy and the last stages still seem so hard!

I feel like I am waiting for my wedding day, I swear...I feel so emotional and overwhelmed and nervous and excited and well JUST EVERYTHING!!!

We will be getting married here in the states sometime next year so we can share our happiness with friends and family. Cant wait for that but for now, one day at a time....i did a little cleaning...but all my focus has been just celebrating with hubby via internet..THANK GOD I WILL THROW THAT THING OUT A WINDOW, and my dear girlfriend...

too many people anxiously awaiting his arrival including our 3 children.

I may have some ?s regarding what happens once he gets to PHL International...that would be PHILLY

like I know he will wait in line sometime and they may drill him hard or maybe not...any info you can share about your POE experiences would help.

have a great day everyone!

Well, CONGRATULATIONS!

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

congrats!!!!

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!

BE WHO YOU ARE AND SAY WHAT YOU FEEL, BECAUSE THOSE WHO MIND DONT MATTER AND THOSE WHO MATTER DONT MIND

YOU CANT CHANGE THE PAST BUT YOU CAN RUIN THE PRESENT BY WORRYING OVER THE FUTURE

TRIP.... OVER LOVE, AND YOU CAN GET UP

FALL.... IN LOVE, AND YOU FALL FOREVER

I DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT, JUST NOT THE ABILITY

LIKE THE MEASLES, LOVE IS MOST DANGEROUS WHEN IT COMES LATER IN LIFE

LIFE IS NOT THE WAY ITS SUPPOSED TO BE, ITS THE WAY IT IS

I MAY NOT BE WHERE I WANT TO BE BUT IM SURE NOT WHERE I WAS
