hoping for the AP, because of the work thing?

"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!

Yes, he has to stay there til Dec 31, 2009. So if he gets it before June, he will have to fly here to activate the k3, then go back to finish work.

I told him today, I don't want to discuss this visa thing any further. I want to plan my vacation and count down the days til I can fly to him.

In fact now he's hoping to stay in AP til June :(

On a brighter note....we are counting down the days til I fly to Jordan. He asked me today if I want to see Petra or Aqaba...I said....I really want to go to Mecca Mall :P

Tell him YESSSSS!!! We did both... on our honey moon! Then we did Jerash and UnQais... VERY VERY BEAUTIFUL!

He told me today that his grandfather died lastnight :( so I asked him how they do a funeral??? I have seen three VERY different Muslim weddings(mine included) but have never been involved in a funeral. He got that grin on his face-that smirk, like "I can't believe she doesn't know how to put a body in the ground" and he explained... "we wrap the body, take it to the cemetary and bury it. Then we come home and people come visit to give their regards." I said "Oh! You mean like a wedding!" and he still smirked(I can HEAR IT!) and said, "ahem! Yes sweetie." (with that OH MY GOSH IS THIS WOMAN FOR REAL?! WHAT A TWIT!-tone) LOL! He's sooo cute- even with sad news he manages to be lighthearted when he talks to me! He's really patient with all my questions, and so sweet with his answers... I LOVE THIS MAN! WITH ALL MY HEART!

Hang in there JJ! BUT really go to both They aren't that far apart, Its like 4 hrs to Petra from Amman, and then another 1 1/2-2 or so to Aqaba... There's a back route to take that is WAY faster, and more senic-VERY pretty countryside! AND FREE RANGE CAMELS!

Thx babe! I talked with my Mom today to get the ball rolling on the joint sponsor paperwork since it's due before waleed gets out of the military. Does anyone know if the tax returns they want have to be starting from last year 2008 or can it start at 2007 since people are still filing their tax returns for last year right now?

This is my 5th trip to Jordan. I really just wanna go to Mecca Mall :P

I'd like to go to Jerash again to take pictures. I want drink coffee in Amman at night in the outdoor cafes. Oh I just can't wait! I wish it was tommorrow!

jJ

How long you gonna go for? GOSH sure can't wait till we go back to visit! There are a few places around here we'd like to touch first! Hubby had never even heard of Yellowsotne, OR the Grand Canyon- I have never been to Yellowstone, so we'll do that first I think--he seems to not mind sleeping out under the stars!=he'll protect me!=but if he asks about the bears and their furrrrrr--I might have to laugh and scare away all the wild life around us!

Have you been to the Dead Sea then Jackie?

Lisa--- I LOVED umQuis. It was so peaceful and beautiful, we sat on the "stone couches" only they weren't couches, but broken sarcoffigises(really didnt' spell that right)! Kinda gross to think about now, but we were living in the moment--- If I could figure out HOW to load a picture into vj, I'd show you ours! Give me some time some things in this website still surprise me!--Amy
