Maybe it is still wishful thinking, but hoping for a xmas noa2.

You have a very high hance of getting your NOA2 by christmas... my own hopes for a christmas NOA2 are pretty much shot, but if today is the first august approval... then new years is still a good chance for me... of course really until you get your NOA2, anything is possible (good or bad yikes!).

thanks well i dont think its going to be too big cause really theres not many people to invite. i was trying to plan everything and was like ok how many people will be there... then i asked my sisters and that was 1 no and 2 maybe and my mom was a big no my dads gone. the only friends i had really died or live too far.

i cant see paying allot of money when its just going to be maybe 6 people ( haha and thats including my 6 kids)

I moved here for work, and I don't know anyone in Kentucky yet except for the 2 guys that work in the office. We should have a Kentucky VJ meet-up :-)

I can't wait to have my man here to explore Kentucky with. The time went by easier when I was with my friends and family but now that I am here alone it is a lot harder.

On a sad note, someone tried to steal my car last night. Luckly they were bad car thiefs and I still have my car, after spending 20 min struggeling to get the screw drive that they broke off in the ignition out.

Candy - you will still have a very special day no matter how small.

Soontobe - which part of Lexington are you staying at? Pls be careful. Lots of jerks around. I agree, we really have to have a VJ get-together!

I drive an older toyota camary.

Happy- I live inbetween Tates creek and Alumni. Kind of a run down nieghborhood, but it means cheep rent. I am trying to save money because USCIS is taking to much of it :-)

I am just happy my car still works, I really didn't think it was going to. I kind of think it must have just been some punk kid who didn't know what he was doing- otherwise I would have woken up to no car.
