The consulate will give you a map of the area, the Xray place isnt too far from the doctor, you can ask the doctors assistant that time how you have to go...(then she says...look at ur map haha)

I dont like it either when they take blood..the worst part is when i try to concentrate and they start the stupid questions to distract my nerves like where do u work, what work are you doing, where are u going in the usa, why are u going..etc then im almost like..stop asking me stuff..i try to concentrate on what u're doing, dont distract me! lol :wacko:

I love this weather we have right now...hopefully it def stays like this over the weekend!!

LOL, that sounds so Dutch :lol:

But that means we could walk it I guess.

Well, woke up this morning to a dark, gray sky.

Too bad.

Hope you all have a great weekend.

Oh I know, I'm super-excited!

We just celebrated our first wedding anniversary and my 29th birthday from 4500 miles apart, so that sucked in a way, but I like to see things half-full, so it was novel too. I convinced my local florist in Oklahoma to deliver a nice bouquet at the time we got married on the 2nd and that definitely made her day for sure.

After a week of silence, VSC seem to have picked up speed again.

Hope it keeps up like this.

Only 2 more weeks before we get on that plane again for 1,5 week together.

Would have been nice if we could have celebrated NOA2 together, but I fear it is to early.

just one more working day this week and than it is 4 days off :dance:

Yep, I saw that too...we've jumped up quite a few places on Igor's in the last week.

Wow...I hope the next 2 weeks go fast, Peet!!! Who knows, you might just get that NOA2...I hope you do!!!

Lucky you....I'm not off at all for Easter...that's ok though since my daughter will be with her dad this weekend.

Hugs, Liz

I HAVE A JOB!!!

Sorry, had to get that off my chest, but I was offered a job yesterday.

1 year contract which I can end the moment we are ready to move.

Still can't believe they wanted me knowing that we are in the middle of this visa process.

LOL, maybe good luck is starting to come our way now?
