We're back home from the Embassy & we are APPROVED!!!!! :)

My family is so thrilled. Now we got 3 months to pack up, sell stuff, and book our one-way flight to NJ!! (DH's job requires 3-month notice.)

There was hardly anyone waiting in line at 8:30. There were a lot of non-immigrant visa people there though but it only took us appx 1 hour. Didn't ask to see much paperwork either! All in all, it was so simple. Oohh, I *think* there was a model there getting a Visa too but I couldn't tell you who she is though but you can definitely tell she was one unless she's just some fine looking woman. Made me feel all ratty, lol.

Good luck to those with interviews coming up!!

Congratulations!!!

Ok.. I just edited my post but it never showed up... Basically I added this:

I'm not sure what part of England you are in but there is now a Springtime flight (Continental) that leaves out of Bristol and flys non-stop to Newark, New Jersey. I used it last time I flew over to visting my husband and it was pretty good... especially the price. LOL When Crash came here over Christmas he flew a KLM/Northwest flight out of Bristol that had a stop in Amerstam but then was non-stop to JFK and he got a great deal on the price for that... much better than say BA or Virgin was out of Heathrow.

Hope that helps...

Ok guys I totally need some lifting of my spirits... Not to take away anything from all you guys getting your interviews who have been right around the same timeframe as us but I'm starting to get really depressed... The waiting is making me crazy... Crash tries to calm me down and keep me relaxed but sometimes (like now) I can't help it and all I want to do is cry.. I know our time will come soon but it feels like it will never happen. Logically I realize our case is different from the rest because its not just hubby's case but my stepson's as well so it may take a bit longer for them to process but all the same I want a date!!

UGGGH... ok.. I hoped that by letting all of that out it might help me just a bit but.. no luck... and my poor hubby.. feels like theres nothing he can do to make me stop stressing... How can I not? The only thing that would help would be being in his arms...

God I hate this... Thanks for letting me ramble on and have my little breakdown...

Cari

Cari,

Just keep telling yourself it'll be worth it in the end and it's all going to go so well you'll kick yourself after for worrying and being impatient.

I found rambling on here and in real life helped me alot! My poor friends... I must buy them flowers. I also made lots of lists, usually at 3am and wrote down how I was feeling. I'm keeping them so I can look and laugh in a few years time. Dave got the brunt of my mood swings and impatience but he know to just say "yes dear" and let me rant some more - I swear he wears earplugs.

Keep positive, it'll all be over before you know it and you'll be back where you belong.

Good Luck,

Helen :)

We will probably fly out of Heathrow, since its closer to us (St. Albans). Its ironic how Bristol now has direct flights because when DH & I were dating, he used to live there.

I'm glad to see March has one success after the other. WTG us!

:yes: please add us too

Love hurts

When you live an ocean away

When you change your sleep schedule to catch a few more moments

When you really need to be held and you have to imagine whilst your partner describes it

When you constantly refresh the USCIS website to see if you're getting any closer

Love Loves

When it repays you with the love of your life

When God finally answered your biggest prayer

When you can live life again in the real world but still have that eternal connection

When you wake up for to the beginning of the rest of your life with the person you fought so hard for

When you love somebody that much

You'll do anything

Just wanted to post and say that we are still waiting for an interview (our petition was sent to London the first part of Feb.)...I haven't been posting much because I was driving myself crazy with worry!

The last few months I have been pretty much OK trying to ignore the visa stress, other than a few times, but lately I have been feeling really antsy and hope this means that we might hear soon about an interview date!

Congrats to all of you that have received your visas over the past few weeks! Good luck with the moves :)
