Hey there :-)

Well I am Kayte and I live in the UK currently, and my Fiancee Nick is based in Virginia beach in the Navy, but leaves in a month to move back home and go back to college... :wacko::wacko: Yeah a bit confusing I know!

We will both be living in Port St Lucie Florida, and I am currently based in Gloucestershire, UK.

We are currently going through the K1 process with Lawyers (I am very badly dyslexic), and are currently waiting to be approved by the Vermont service center... Estimated to be approved by late September.... Originally I hoped to be in the USA by then starting my Medical degree again but apparently not!

Just browsing the boards for random advice currently, I am not experienced enough to dish it out right now.

At this moment in time I am currently tying up loose ends in my life, paying off credit cards and loans, stopping phone contracts, and just getting ready even though I still have a little while longer to wait. I still need to save up for a house deposit. :unsure:

One of the main issues I am having is shipping right now, however I am selling all my old DVDs and books on eBay just to save a few $$/££ rather than have to ship them all over there.

Thank god most of my shoes and clothes are over there, otherwise there would be many more boxes!

I hope to learn more over the coming days about everything and hope your all having a smooth transition :).
