Rawr, good morning - or night - everyone! I am hoping we will see more approvals!! Last time so many of us got the apps right around this time so I am keeping my fingers crossed for all of you. Please, please, please!

As far as a Halloween celebration goes, I will force some sort of celebration here. Halloween is not a part of the norwegian culture so I'm a REAL oddball for doing anything regarding it. It's important to Wade that our little boy has both the norwegian and american culture well intact so... off to hunt down some sort of a Halloween celebration, LOL! It will be a real cultural shock to me to actually witness a real Halloween celebration next year, but I'm really looking forward to it. Same with thanksgiving and valentine's day. No such thing here.. I guess us norwegians aren't grateful for anything or appreciative of the love of our lives, huh? :devil:

Aaaanyway, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for NOA2s - Come on CSC!

I hear ya! I'm a NOA1 date of 22 July and I am beginning to get a little anxious! All there NOA2's from various dates in July! concur...Come on CSC. PS Not a touch since day 1

This process is so unpredictible. It looks as though we are pushing out our planned time to be together. He originally wanted to be here for christmas and then changed his mind after we filed the petition. I suppose that was just my plans anyways.

I probably shouldn't even start to expect him until he has the visa in hand since he feels he has a lot going on right now. It seems he won't be ready to move for awhile. Bummer.

M and F your patience is going to pay off at the end.

Season I want you to get an approval and no RFE.

Apply the laws of the Secret and you will have your approval in no time. Envision your approval next week, and you will have it next week.

thanks! RFE is bad, but at least that means my papers are not sitting somewhere in the drawer and collecting dust, there are so many 'what if' in my mind right now. That's dumb, I know. Thanks for your kind words :) I wish that we will have something better take place next week, for everybody!

I took a drive up to Wyoming late last night because I was getting too stressed from the process and other things. Ended up doing some retail therapy at Discount Liquor. I didn't know they sold my favorite sparkling wine in a 1.5 Liter bottle - and at a discount! SCORE!!!! I need maybe 5 more of these for my reception (if I get to have one) :D

Ugh. well I honestly believed we'd see more NOA2s by now. They were so good about approving stuff last friday/saturday so I was hoping it was a trend at CSC. I'm happy for all of you guys who got approved this week and I'm hoping the rest of you will be approved next week!!

I'm also hoping Wade and I will get our NOA2 in the mail next week.. it's been 7 days so I hope it'll arrive soon. NVC keep telling us they can't see our case, trying to tell myself not to freak out about it but it's tough when the other people who got approved in the same time frame as us all have arrived at NVC by now. So.. I'm gonna take a deep breath and hope for the coming week :yes:

I'm happy to see you guys are trying to keep busy during the weekend, it really makes time go by faster. Wade and I haven't been able to talk too much the last couple of days, so I'm missing him real bad. I keep trying to find something to do, but thoughts of him and I keep sneaking back into my traitorous mind :devil:

Aaaanyway, have a good weekends boys n girls, next week is another chance of getting good news!!

Awww....that is such a nice dream. I am going to try to organize the paper he needs for his interview, and just going to meet up with a friend who just got a job after a long search. It seems like their is good news every week. So, this is a good sign for all of you still waiting.

Good morning everyone! Woke up and found a garage sale right next door. Bought me and Damo a new tv hehe. Found our wine glasses at my friends antique shop today, they are absolutely beautiful, from the 40s. Luckily she is a close friend and gave me a 50% discount on them so I got both for 40 dollars ;) . Damo spent all day moving yesterday so I missed him lots. Only got to chat for a little while, I think he was having a harder time with not talking to me than I was. The kids go to their dads house on friday nights, so I get to relax. Took a nice long bath, made me a mojito and spent the night watching my favorite shows. With all the stress and worry over this process we still need to remember to pamper ourselves. Enjoy the little things in life, it will make the time go by faster.

I have been living on my own for 3 years now. And just realized last night that soon I wont be alone anymore. Its a good thing, but also with the craziness of my life I enjoy some time to myself. I talked to Damo about it because I felt guilty feeling that way. And he told me he is the same way ^_^ . Its going to be so nice to not have to do everything myself, to have help, someone to lean on, someone to cry with and share happy moments. Still a few months to go.

Hope everyone here finds their little special things to enjoy, Use them to give them strength, and take every moment to just bask in the fact that even though our loved one is far away, they are there loving us, and missing us the same.

love you guys!

Jules

Just a quick note to mention the hardcopy of our NOA2 arrived today, just in case others who got approved last week are still waiting and would like to know if people are getting them yet. Don't worry everyone still waiting on your NOA2, it'll come... you're almost there, don't give up hope, stay positive!
