I have sky high cell phone bills...how far back should I go? I talked to my cell phone company and they can't give me a print out of just my international calls....it would be a lot to print out!

maybe you can just do the screen prints of the calls.. then you can capture many many days/weeks on just one sheet. Thats what we did with yahoo chats.

"you fondle my trigger then you blame my gun"

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!

Yeap that would work!!! Good thinking Lisa!!! :dance: Also maybe print random bills, say maybe every other month, or every 2-3 months?

Truly happy!!!

Yeah, that's what I'm doing with our email. I think I have around 3,000 emails from my husband! So needless to say I don't want to print all of that out! LOL. I don't have any phone bills, because he got rid of his cell phone and never kept his bills! I'm printing the ones for my phone that show recieved calls from Canada, but there's no proof it was him. Hoping they will believe that I don't talk to anyone else in Canada but him! LOL Geeez, where would I get the time to squeeze anybody else in? :wacko: ;-)

Hi Lisa!!! How are things?

I haven't seen Zarqa lately...don't know what's going on. I hope everything got resolved for her.

We are all still keeping the couch warm. :unsure:

Hi Amanda, Lisa, Jackie, Kiyah and everyone who support me until now, I was so busy calling the Embassy, Lawyers, Congressman, Representatives........ I hired an Attorney Marc Ellis, he interview my husband, he is preparing the rebuttal if my case is back to USA, still in Madrid, so far one of my Senators told me I will need to wait until my case is back to USA because is not denied, my other Congressman still sending emails because he call the department of state and my case is not there still in Madrid, so again he send another email requesting another interview, we waiting for the reply .... I just keep my fingers cross, what about you Amanda, I know this month is your interview, good luck inshallah everything will be fine.

Zarqa,

I pray you get some positive news soon. This process is so difficult at times, downright un-bareable.

So much heartache in this process. You are in my prays.

Beth

Hi Beth, thank you for you prayers, and yes all this process is getting me sick, I'm still fighting I know will take time I know won't be 2 months, 6 months maybe will be more but inshallah later this will be a dream,

Amanda..OMG 3 days. It will be fine and Raad will be home soon. If you start to freak out, pray for patience and peace of mind (F)

I can't wait for him to book his ticket & get here!! I know God has it all under control...just need to sit back and let Him handle it. :) I just have to keep myself busy this weekend!

Yeah...these last couple of days really are torture, but I've waited over 7 months already...2 days should be a piece of cake right? He he.

I could do some painting this weekend & mow the yard, clean...etc. So I will try to keep myself busy.

Raad is in Amman today filming a party & he will be staying overnight to meet with our third party agent for a pre-interview briefing and to make sure we have everything...then back to Amman probably on Sunday to spend the night. :) Thanks for your prayers...I'll take all I can get!! :thumbs:
