All I know is for now, hubby can be here the latest Nov. 6th, and Im scared to death now!!! UGH!!!!! We fight, cry, find the strength in us for this disneyland journey, and its right under my nose now of having hubby here, and I truly dont know what to do now.

Holy ####### Paris... you got your October interview??

How'd you swing that sweet deal? I swear to god, I'm going to relocate to France or something like that. It's been over 9 weeks and we haven't heard a peep yet. None of us Canadians have. NO K1s or CR/IR1s. It's scary.

Congratulations -- it means you guys get to be together SOON! That's amazing...

Sorry I missed that, I have been staying out of these places as hearing about people who finished way after I did getting an interview in the space of a week or two really bums me out.

Am happy for everyone but just dont' want to have to deal with it, ya know???

#######? He has to be here within a week of the interview? Now that would be stressful...hang in there Paris! In a few weeks you'll be together!

Well , he has to leave Paris on or before Nov. 6th that is when his french residency card expires. Im standing here in my family room shaking my head, I dont know what to do first, pack, clean, shopping, where is the additional evidence? GOSH, where is my head???? DONT ANSWER THAT!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

This is a good topic because I think everyone of us at some point goes: "holy #######, they're actually coming!"

For us... we had MANY lengthy discussions about the adjustment period,what to expect ect, we had lots of time for it lol

We talked about roles and expectations of eachother. We also talked about what exactly we were each worried about in the first 6 months-year...and that REALLY helped us.

He has been here for 5 months and we havent had any "times" that arent to be expected from any other married couple who are living together for the first time.

keep your communication open and have an open door policy to discuss any problems you guys may have and you'll be just fine!

I have read of many HARD adjustments and it scared me to pieces for a while before he came, we talked and talked and now we laugh at ourselves for freaking out about it(ok, he teases me is more like it )

Mine loves the ocean so much, he's just crazy about it! Since it's cheap here in V.B. during 'off season', I'm going to rent us a beach house at Sandbridge for one full month. Then he can wake up every morning to the sound of the waves, see the rising sun as it rises from the ocean and last but not least, Dolphins so close to the beach you can practically touch them!

I really have my hopes up to make this a reality for him.

I can't wait to be back. I spent the previous four years in college and so it won't be a hard change. But I can imagine it might be a bit of a shock/adjustment for those going over for the first time. But I'm sure you'll get over it soon, and you will have your SO and his/her family to help you through it.

OMG beth, i didnt have to worry about taking a trip on top of everything else lol I promise whatever you do around the house wont feel like enough if youre anything like me I also promise that everything that you are worried about will be just fine. He'll be fine when you have to go back to work and you can give him a Honey-do list to keep him busy while he looks for a job also, you cant imagine how nice it will be to come home from work and HE'S THERE!!! teehee

evidence: bring it ALLLLLL!

thats cool!

there's not a ton of things to see in Louisville. But he was happy to see everything that I had been seeing and talking about for almost 2 years lol

If youre close enough to go to magic mountain and she likes rollercoasters, how about knotts berry farm or universal studios too? you have tons to show her (I grew up in OC )
