Filing in March

[aleena 0]

I was out with friend for a while...just got back...turned my computer i noticed i have missed some funny things going on here!

i enjoyed reading your descriptions so much!!!!!

yes....i am pretty tiny...(110 lbs) but hell no....i am not quiet!...lol... I am the loudest person you can imagine...lol...Now i learned to temper myself but in my younger years i could be really annoying...

ANA...as I said...seeing you picture just gave a shape to my idea of you... Sweet and natural and with that sexy Brazilian darker skin...

NICH... you laugh with your heart, you are very dedicated to the the things you enjoy... Of course there is a lot of maturity in everything you say or do... You are a person who likes to listen and give advice... Very patient...

Oh yes...and you do wear a cowboy hat when you work outside in the yard

KIM.... you probably have at leat 10,000,000,000 friends...a very communicative person...very positive...strong...there is no giving up with you...and also very very funy...Not to mention perfect drinking partner I also think you are very passionate in love

and our dear BEX...i saved the best for you... You remind me a lot of my friend from England... and i always imagine you talking like her. But there is a lot more maturity in you...She is exactly your age but lets herself carried away by whatever happens in life...You in exchange are very determined for a person your age...and very smart!

you have light brown hair...straight... light skin ( i wonder how i know that...lol)...you like to dress and you kind of have you own stile when it comes to fashion.

Oh my! This is too crazy. I love "holding back Bex's hair" and "wearing a cowboy hat while I garden." I'm going to have to think of some way to reveal all to you. And Kim, I would love to share a cup of coffee and many laughs with you.

I wonder where Bex was this afternoon? I guess she was sick and went to bed missing all the descriptions of herself. And speaking of missing in action, what has happened to Tuty?

Looking forward to a good next week. Adios, adio, adeus, arrivederci, au revoir, cheers, and bye y'all.

Hi guys!

How are you all doing?

Im smelling the freedom as this is the last week of school.

I really dont know what to tell you about...other than being confused regarding what Donnie's and my future hold for us. Because I have two sons here, probably we'll have to stay here for 4 or five years till the kids grow up a little (at least till the older one turns 18)...maybe I dont know. Right now they are 10 and 13, and they live with their father but I really dont think that leaving them will be the right thing to do. We are getting married in US, thats for sure, but then we dont know what to do...we have several possibilities:

a) marry there and come back to israel and after 4 or 5 years apply for DCF or K3

B) Marry there, do the GC thing and then come back to Israel

c) Just leave the kids here and go and live there and bring them to us when they are 18, and I will have to visit every 2 or 3 months (which may break my kid's hearts and develop further psichological issues)

so....Im still happy that we have each other and that someday our solitary life will end. As you can see we have some tough decisions ahead of us...now I thank God the Argentinian doc will be ready in a year....it will give me time to think and decide whats the best. We are going on with K1 because we will marry in US.

I love you guys. Good luck with the upcomming interviews. I can't wait to star seeing some wedding pics!!!!!!!!!!

good vibes to all

Hi all

Just to let you know i have an interview on 8th July at 9am

Omg OMG OMG OMG

So much to do now and so little time

I know the waiting is a killer and you mentally plan some of the things that you need to do and find lots of information out, then when it sinks in that you have to now do all that stuff (omg) it makes it feel like such a short time. Going from waiting to now i gotta sort here - kids house car dog family work friends packing tickets and then start sorting for the other side of home (need bigger place) wedding AOS work make friends etc etc and all this by Christmas too.

Gonna write my notice for work today - i know they say you shouldn't but to hell with it hate my job anyways and need to give minimum 4 weeks but contract says 1 weeks for every year so thats hmmm should be 10 weeks so am hoping they will go for the 4 weeks and not make it 10 as will be taking about 6 weeks of unpaid leave lol

So for me next week will be fun - taking my daughter to get her vaccinations on monday my cars mot tuesday medical with daughter of friday and then on saturday and takin both my kids on 3 day cruise as planned that weeks ago so we could all spend some quality time together before the move as my son is going to live with his dad.

so off to spend some time with my dads as fathers day then back to looking at what needs to be done and when (hehehehehe)

its a relief to get the date but moves you from one roller coaster onto another - emotional roller coaster of waiting onto the roller coaster of panic as need to try and get moved and somewhat settled before the schools go back in August so my daughter can start when everyone else does (need to check dates for that - damn another job to do ).

Hi Guys!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY TO ALL THE DADDIES!

This thread is hilarious right now! I'm so glad that we have each other to take the edge off how ####### this process is.

Mommy Nicole my hair is almost exactly like you described, in fact only a few days ago I went and had the hairdresser cut in a cute side fringe that I wear very straight! I most definitely do not have a tattoo on my lower back! I'm going to get something special tattooed on my hip before I leave so that I know I can take some very important people with me where ever I go. I need to lose some more weight before then though. Lol and Kim no one has ever had to hold my hair back so I'm looking forward to the first! I would be up there on that table with you in a flash, put a pint in my hand though. Alina how on earth did you know that I have light skin?!? Lol!! Thank you for all being so kind about my personality. Love You.

Tuty sorry to hear that you are reconsidering your options. Most days I spend split between wanting to move and not wanting to. I can't possibly imagine how difficult it is for you to have to consider leaving your boys behind. I know that you and Donnie will make the best decision for you family.

I hope everyone is well

"I most definitely do not have a tattoo on my lower back! I'"

you might not but i do and its huge all pink n purple none of that all black tats that some people have, wouldnt suit me as my skins too pale. It was a bday pressie to me a few years ago and took over a year for anyone in my family to notice and my kids thought it was airbrushed hehehehehe

Aleena - wont be long now and packet 3 will be on your door step then a few weeks after that packet 4, next thing you know you will be joining me going OMG OMG OMG and yes it feels good, sinking in more now than yesterday when i got letter - guess thats delayed reactions for you.

Ah well time to go do laundry and get ready to go out, guess tonight will start on my todolist and gannt chart

[Nich-Nick 3,354]

Hi and Good Morning,

Well Pandora's interview date tells me we did the right thing in delaying ours. She is my timeline twin. Our dates, consulate, service center, etc are pretty identical. We were forecasting that the interview could very well time out to be while Nick's in the US. I can assume from Pandora's date that his would have been around the 8th also. He's here July 4-13 so that wouldn't have worked. Congratulations Pandora and good luck organizing.

Today I'm going to meet my daughters for lunch at a town halfway between us. I feel sad for them that they don't have a father any more. So everybody give your Dad an extra good hug today, especially those who will be moving far away.

Hi evebody!!!! Good Morning!!!!!!!

Tuty - Iam so sorry to hear that don[t your kids wants to move with you to States ? I mean they are into the age for you to fill the I 130f ( I think that is the form) anyway is almost the same process as the K1 but for relatives.... I don´t know if your country has some issues on that, you would need their guard and talk to their father to send them there on summer they will be able to be there 3 months a year.

Pandora - OMG OMG OMG girl that is close in a few weeks less than a month....

Nich - hey good morning my fairy tales mom!!! hahahaha did you forget that?

Hope evebody have a good day Iam going bak to work =/ a lot more stuffs to do here.... and so sad that I am not able to enjoy to awesome sunny day outside and run to the beach and feel the good salt water on my face today=~~~~ We use to say that when we go into the sea the sea water cleans all the bad "eyes" and jealoucy that people feel on you It like cleans your soul ... maybe I need that to help with my NOA 2 hahahahaha

Bye

Iam going back to work!!!

ANA.....Brazil is definitely on my travel list!!!!!! And i think Lee would love going there also!

but by the time we get there you will probably be busy looking after your children in the US

i went to a Brazilian house party in America last summer...Oh my God....i had so much fun!

there was this girl...Camila...and she was taking belly dancing classes! That girl could move...And she was trying to teach us some moves... And 2 other girls...were teaching us Samba! and i also learned some words in Portuguese...but i can't remember them corectly and i would embarass myself if i tried to write anything...

After that party i downloaded some Samba music and tried to practice in front of the mirror...)

Very very nice and warm people!!!!

BEX...hope you are feeling better today...And NICH...have fun with your girls!

TUTY i am sure you will eventually find the best way to handle the situation. The most important thing is that you have each other and that you love each other....

[KimandRuss 0]

Nic... anytime!

Tuty, it must be so difficult for you trying to make these diffiuclt decisions. Whatever you decide ..it's going to be whats right for you all. Wishing you much strength!

Pandora... congratulations on your interview! how exciting!

Bex, I have not a doubt in my mind we could have a wonderful time together!

Aleena, I think it's funny we all just kinda knew you were this tiny little thing. One of my best friends is only 5' but she's quite spicy too!

Wishing all of you wonderful people still waiting for NOA2 much luck this week!

I haven't been keeping up with VJ lately, or this thread since a couple weeks after it started, but I just wanted to let y'all know my fiancee had her interview in Tokyo today and was approved! They said she'll get the visa in the mail in a week. When I get more details of the interview from her I'll post them in the Embassy Review section for anyone interested. Good luck everyone!
