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!

I'm so darn tired! I told my husband I want a maid! :angry: I don't know how my grandmother did it. She worked full time in a factory and raised 5 kids. She also cooked every single day and did the laundry and major cleaning.

I can barely walk to the door of my home after work is done :cry: I have a migraine almost every day :cry:

I finally went to the doctor (because I felt paranoid as my aunt was always tired and headachy before when she was still alive). Doctor thinks I might have sleep apnea. I don't snore or anything like that. She thinks my breathing might be too shallow. I have to do a sleep study. They were going to schedule me the same day, but I couldn't bear to part from my husband this soon. It's like I don't want to sleep alone again!!! So i scheduled it out into July.

I'm so tired that I am down to like only 3-4 cigarettes a day! :lol: Because when I get home I'm too tired to make a pot of coffee and I can't smoke without coffee :( I also figured if I'm not getting enough oxygen, I should probably stop smoking. Even with this decrease over the last several weeks, I feel even worse! Lisa, what do you think? Should I start smoking more again? Maybe my body is rebelling? :lol:

Seren, sucks about the test. That is so stupid. Then again, California is one of those states that always makes you take things over. I know for my work license, California does not reciprocate and I would have had to take the tests over again. They also don't accept higher degrees from our state either. It's weird.

Waving (tiredly) hello to everyone :D Hope all is well!

DEF start smoking more. Your body has its own way of telling you what it needs. When we're hungry, we get hunger pangs...tired, we get sleepy. You body is telling you to light a damn cig already! :lol:

no really, it might just be stress hun. You know all the odd ways it can manifest itself. Your whole life just changed and there are new pressures. Dotn work yourself into a frenzy if you get overwhelmed, just do one thing at a time. (L)

My wife entered the US at Newark this past Friday and everything went very smoothly. Since I was traveling with her we were able to go in the citizen's line which was considerably shorter than the one for non-citizens (the wait was hardly 5 minutes long). The immigration officer took my wife's fingerprints and photograph and opened the mysterious brown envelope. He handed it to another officer who asked us to follow him to a secondary checking area. We waited there another 5 minutes before my wife got her passport back stamped and with the I-94 attached. No questions asked throughout the whole process.

Overall other than the long wait at USCIS I would say that the K3 process has been a lot smoother than we had anticipated. Hope that the rest of the journey goes smoothly as well (we will be filing AOS papers soon).

Oh You poor thing.....If you are tired and not getting enough sleeps, doc usually come up with sleep Apnea. Good idea to get it check out ad a CPAP machine is a quicl fix for sleep apnea. Now quit the smoking!!!! :unsure:

I can't believe that CA will make you take your lic again too... :ranting: I guess they need some avenue to make income.

Hey Seren...I will see what they say, but eventually I will make someone order a head scan for me. If they had done so for my aunt, she might still be alive. This all started when my aunt was still here with us. I'm just concerned I may have caught an infection or virus from her. She did have multi-drug resistant infections on top of her condition. Since I also recently had my radioactive shots, my immune system was not at its strongest. I don't know...it could be just the hot weather. But sometimes you just know when something isn't right...and I feel like something isn't right inside.

Good Morning guys.

CnT, go back to the doc if you feel like its not just sleep apnea or stress! Take care, do you have any sick days you can take just to rest?
