congrats ontheedge!!

Thanks. I'm so glad its all over. Now the hard part, helping him find a job here. He has a good position in JA, and his parents are truly scared that he won't find one here.

Congrats girl!

When is he coming over?

Its disappointing for me, but he's thinking early March. He has to give one month's notice at his job and then will get some work done on his house and come over.

The job situation is a real bear here and I am so scared he will give up a decent job and not get one here. He's in technical/engineering field, so I told him he should be fine. Those fields always need people. He could also finish up his degree if nothing materializes right away.

I have to keep remembering that he is making a huge transition. Although he's visited many times. Its different when you live here and go through the day to day grind.

Is there a transition group or can we start one that will help our mates as they transition into a new life here?

Ontheedge, I didn't realize you were in CT - me too - What part are you in?

Depending on where you are, there is a huge JA community in CT

Sus,

I'm in New Haven. Where are you?

We should get together. Have you started the process yet?

-K

[sus 70]

We should definitely get together - I used to live in New Haven, right now I am living in Fairfield - I am going to the Funk Fest Sun night at Toads - Haven't started, hopefully soon, trying to be patient!!

Lots of JA in your area - you aren't that far from Hartford, one of the largest WI populations in the US - lots of soccer leagues in your area, great reggae shows at Toads -

congrats MrsBuggy!

Does anyone have advice for calling the embassy- the website says not to call... so what number have people used and how do you get the info? I'm just thinking ahead and hoping we'll be scheduled in February for March.

Thanks!
