What John? We aren't your friends? *Sigh. I for one, am shocked! . Do you have the things ready for the interview...besides the medical? Ok John, what shall we do to pass the time? The whole group is counting on you for a good idea. They are about to come after me with torches and pitchforks, so it is your turn.

[BigSigh 12]

You are submitting all of this? Good grief! Do you have any receipts of packages sent back and forth or just regular snail mail letters? Other than that, you sound over prepared.

[johndoe12 2]

No no. That list is for the interview package. I want my wife to have it when she gets her interview call. Just in case they ask for something i want her to have as much as possible

Dont plan on submitting this to NVC.

John or anyone else, do you know how to print off Yahoo Messenger calls ? My hubby and I don't usually send emails or talk on messenger very much, but we spend hours chatting on our webcams. I have tried to no avail to figure this out, any help is muchly appreciated.

[BigSigh 12]

I know that the list was for interview not NVC. That is still a ton of stuff!!!! Sorry Pony1076, I don't know how to print them off. I hope someone can help you.

Pony1076 - Not sure about the voice calls as I dont usually do that. However, for conversation/chats, on the chatting window, go to Converstation -> Save as ...and that should save your whole chat log as a text file to a location you have specified.

Hope this helps.

Hey compared to what others take, this is nothing. Its better to be prepared than to get rejected at the interview.

[BigSigh 12]

Uh...my husband will have like 5 things to take. If he complains I will tell him that others take a whole briefcase full of things (that never get looked at).

[BigSigh 12]

So guess what wasn't in my mailbox today? LAMEEEEEEEE! Hopefully (for them) it will be there tomorrow. I will drafting up a scavenger hunt. One of the items will be a corrected NOA1 for myself .

[johndoe12 2]

Good one. you keep at it. U will find something soon.

[BigSigh 12]

If I knew where everyone lived...not stalker like but pen pal like...I could give us all assignments for sharing something about your state or your little corner of the U.S. Such as: good places to eat in your town and main attractions...stuff like that. I live in Omaha, NE. I haven't lived here forever so I don't know a whole ton about the place. I haven't eaten at many places there that aren't chains found all over the country...so no help there. I also haven't seen much of the city. I do know that the zoo here is supposed to be super awesome (I have been several times but always with little kids so never have been able to see the whole thing). Also the downtown has some draws. I know there has to be something else about here...but I didn't come here for the city. I came here for different reasons.

Does anyone have a definitive POE yet? I know it is so far off but maybe some of this group's SO's have been in the US before and have a preference. Mine has not. So, I know his POE will be where ever is cheapest. Luckily there are some nice POE reviews on here to help out with that decision.

[BigSigh 12]

DON'T LOOK!!!!!!

[johndoe12 2]

Look at what?

[tena13 0]

U don't want us to look at our timeline?

Well Kayaking is great fun. Your all invited I have plenty of room and if they fill up well its tents in the yard then.. Only dont look for me to cook haha.

On a serious side. Yes I know we have the Cover Letters and that's a great start but that's not the final, I'm ready point. As we all know, the devil is in the details. That's what gets us. With each of these items listed on a Cover Letter there are little points to remember and do. This would remind us of those points. So we should expand our thinking and dig the devil out of his hiding place.

That's why I finished cutting the grass and will be going midnight Kayaking. I can look up at the stars & Dream of the Days to come. It also helps me sleep when I get home.lol I am glad the we have summer upon us. It allows us the opportunity to get out and away from the house. If I am here to much I will sit and eat and gain weight and my mind and internet kills me.
