First of all....I want to extend my biggest thanks to all of you for your re-assurances...All of you were spot on and right. I lost weight even in the days up to seeing him because of all the running around I did. Abbas said I look the same as before, which made me feel better. :blush:

I was soooo anxious the first day. But all he did was fall into bed and sleep a full 10 hours. So I fell onto the couch and was able to rest also from all the strenuous preparing I was doing before he came.

In bedroom matters, we are both a little shy, but getting over this slowly.

All of you are right the most important thing is patience!!!!!! While our reunion was blissful, there are lots and lots of little details that need to be explained. How to operate a microwave, the procedure for check out at a grocery store, Iranian electrical plugs/outlets don't fit US standard outlets (he can't plug his electronic stuff in), how to work the stove, the tv remote....

Thanks again everyone for all your good words of advice and encouragement!!!!

:blush:

WB Nutty! And Welcome to America to Your Husband! Sorry I don't know his name yet.

It sounds like you both are out of the starter gates and (L) getting reacquainted :devil: which is good to hear! :innocent:

I think that you can find adapters or converters for those electrical plugs/outlets at any of the larger home appliance store.

I know you'll probably want to be spending a lot of time with him now but pls stop in and keep us updated! :D

Say hello to your honey for us and welcome to the US!

Welcome Back!

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.

I'm glad you're having such a wonderful reunion. Keep your patience, as you said, and your sense of humor. He'll be trying to learn things in a few days or months that you've had your whole life to learn, and he'll get super frustrated at times, but he'll get it. Best wishes to you both.

Welcome back-- glad you had a good reunion!

I think it's a lot more difficult to convert that direction-- usually you just re-wire because you need a transformer.

None of my posts have ever been helpful. Be forewarned.
