He will have it on the 25th! Watch... :thumbs:

how long does it usually take anyway?

Anywhere from 3-10 business days.

I have until friday morning to call delta and change the flight and that will be a damn fee. So much for getting the ticket cheap...

Lady C lol.. Steve betnot try to push me off the bed :angry: I may be short compared to him, but I can take him :lol: (knowing dayum well I can't)... Anyway, I made honey vanilla chamomille tea and put some bacardi coco in it. He said I was snoring lol I sleep so dayum good. They don't know that THEY are the reason we snore, we are dead tired after filling out "THEIR" paperwork and making sure they adjust well!!!

:hehe:

So I have a serious question for e/one.

As things have moved and stalled and moved again, and thru all the issues, drama, tears, fights, pain and all... Im sure we all have similar stories and trials. Question is.. would you do it all over again? Or, knowing what you know now, would you run like hell.

Im sometimes 50/50 on this. I love my husband, but getting to where we are (and we arent even there yet) has been a ride- and sometimes downright painfull. I dont regret marrying him! Dont regret loving him.. but sometimes I regret meeting him. Is that bad?

We didn't do too much other than the concert on Friday night. Montell did good...he actually has a decent voice. Keith Sweat was a mess! He was so over the top...he put on a show though.

We used Saturday to clean up and place some of the bridal shower gifts that we got. It was a laid back weekend for sure...but definitely much needed.

LOL, no its not bad at all! I've learned that some days are better than others. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. Early on in our relationship I was faced with a decision to move forward or leave him be and I honestly couldn't imagine my life without him in it...visa journey and all.... :whistle:

Its not bad because I sometimes have these same feeling. I love G to death but adjustment for us is not always good. Some days I want to scream at him (which iI usually do) and some days I just want to love him up. Its not easy when they leave everything and come here and have to wait to start working and then they get bored from being at home. I would do it again if I had to but maybe I would do some things alittle diffrent.

I believe everything happens for a reason & in God's time, so I would do it again. I might do a few things differently, though, like take a few less trips to Jamaica and save that $$ instead.

I don't plan on marrying again if this doesn't work. I believe in "til death do us part" :devil:

I love hubby and I needed to experience marriage just once. I am going to "make it do what it do" as A would say, but if it doesn't work, this is it for me. Not alot of fight left in me.

I would have to go with what Nat said but one thing we would do differently is cut back on some of our spending of $$$!
