Correct me if I'm wrong, I thought when you sue that you sue the insurance company, they pay you but the offender's premium goes up? How can you possibly sue the offendet?

Im not sure...

Good Morning. Happy Hump Day!

Just catching up a little. We went to dinner and the mall last night... glad I can come and go as I please again!

MrsTee... congrats on the compensation. That is nice, I like to know good things do happen.

Ells... sorry about the phone issues. That is our biggest bill. We don't use cell phones though, just a land line. Louis is really trying hard to keep it down. He realizes his friends can call him just the same if they want to. The most $$ goes to "mom calls" and I can't discipline him on those.

On selective services.. if you do not register and you are under 25... then decide to try for loans etc for college.. you will get screwed. You MUST register, don't forget about it... I know this is just one bump you will hit there could be others. The reason I know this is because Tierra's jackass father never registered and then got in big trouble when he tried to get a student loan a couple years ago.

Congrats on the homecoming MsSheka! That is great news!

Den... he is not OLD!! What would that make me and Louis at 35??? LOL Jeesh! And now I am trying for this baby, I am going to need a walker when I am a few months along!!! LOL

Awww...so it seems like you're adjusting well...you learning you way around and stuff...Den is driving somewhat but he still is trying to learn the city...he says every street here has "Peachtree" in it and he says he gets confused ...poe thang, I told him with time he will get it!

I feel him on that. I've also noticed, when riding around Atlanta, that "Peach" is in everything.

Have you been to the Coca Cola museum? That tasting room had me SICK... probably set a record for amount of sugar consumed in a short time.

Besa, my mom sent two seperate money orders and she got her receipt letter yesterday...

Ladies, when your men went to the k-1 interview, I'm surentheybgot this paper saying that they should register for selective services (or something like that) as soon as they enter the country or else there'll be a fine. Did y'all let your men register? I didn't...

The voter registration was included in our packet from the courthouse when we applied for the license. My husband is registered.

Den... he is not OLD!! What would that make me and Louis at 35??? LOL Jeesh! And now I am trying for this baby, I am going to need a walker when I am a few months along!!! LOL

Morning Irie...no 28 is definitely not old...I just tease him cause Den aches and complains some times like he is a little old man...he had a bad injury when he was younger and he hurt his back really bad so sometimes he aches...so I call him old man. I'm in the over 30 group and I'm still hot to trot!

[MRStee 19]

Good morning, All.

Today is one of those days I host a 7am meeting. I HATE getting up this early (unless it's to leave the country for a vacation).

I wonder if an application for social security # or for driver's license triggers selective service registration. I'll investigate later.

Doesn't it trigger it if your hubby has to register to vote?

I feel him on that. I've also noticed, when riding around Atlanta, that "Peach" is in everything.

I went to the Coca Cola museum when I was like in 6th grade...I'm lame y'all...I haven't really taken Den to any of the tourist spots...I'm just not that kinda girl...he really isn't that kinda guy either. I did say we are going to the Aquarium and the MLK Center...that's about it though!

[NatPatBen 3]

MrsTee, I'm def going to look into it. We're not trying to be unlawful, even if neither of us wants Steven to go fight in anybody's war.

[MRStee 19]

thanks Nat i see your hubby's card was already ordered

I posted a review here it is

Review Topic: IR1/CR1 Visa

I went to JA for my hubby's interview we arrived at 6:50am (i know we were super early) we sat outside until 8:00am they we proceeded to the entrance which there was a very long line but i was told to proceed to the front since we are what they call "Filing" and i was told the others in the long line were "Non-Immigrants" we left everything in the car so security was a breeze a young lady at the door took two of my hubby's passport pics and wrote his name on the back and put them inside his passport and inserted the first page of our interview appointment letter inside the passport as well, they asked for my passport to prove i was the one filing for him them we proceeded to the courtyard and was directed to the check-in counter, we were given a number at 8:15am we were inside while waiting we noticed the numbers were not in order as we already knew by other reviews and we noticed the process as well(first call finger prints, medical and document check, second call interview) also we noticed a LOT OF BLUE SLIPS were being given for 2009 TAX RETURN & W2's and also for CO-SPONSORS we also observed what CO were really strict and stern and which ones were really nice, there were three Americans and three Jamaicans that were doing interviews and they would switch it up every now and then, the Jamaican guy was very nice and so was one of the ladies with her hair braided, there was a African-American girl with a short bob she was very strict and conducted all interviews on speaker phone which i found very upsetting because everyone could hear every question and every answer, and there was an African- American guy who me and my hubby called "BLUE SLIP' BECAUSE 90% OF HIS INTERVIEWS ENDED IN "blue slips" (who also turned out to be our CO) he was very thorough and he asked everyone to pick up the phone so it was really hard to tell what most of the "blue slips" were for but i remember two that needed co-sponsors and two that needed more proof of ongoing relationship, other than that they were giving visas left and right no denials, at 9:45am our number was called for the first time a young Jamaican female (very nice and polite) took my hubby's medical, took his finger prints and have him sign his Police certificate and asked him some general questions then she asked is this our first marriage we said yes she told us to have a seat and listen for our number again, at 10:30 our number was called again we were first asked to raise our right hands and to swear all the info we gave and that all our answers would be the truth then the CO asked me to take a seat and asked my hubby to pick up the phone, i could hear my hubby's answers and from that i knew what the questions were

1. how did you meet?

2. how long have you known each other?

3. when did you get married?

4. how do you communicate?

5. has your wife every sent you any money and do you have receipts?

6. how many times has your wife visited you since you started dating?

then i saw the CO whip out a blue slip and put it aside and that's when my i noticed my hubby getting very nervous he then proceeded to ask my hubby

7. do you have any children?

8. how many people was at your wedding?

9. do you have any wedding pictures?

then he asked my hubby to sit and asked me to come up to the window and pick up the phone

he basically asked my questions 1-3,6-9 and i explained we had no pics because it was a small ceremony and i explained we had a big one planned and had to postpone because my son had to have surgery he the asked 10. what kind of surgery and when? he then asked to see my son's birth certificate and my US passport, then he paused and reached for the "blue slip" i noticed it was for co-sponsor because we did not meet the poverty guidelines for 2008 but we did for 2009 so i then offered the CO the 2009 Tax return and W2 he then asked if it met the poverty guideline i said yes he said "yes i will need that since both you and your co-sponsor did not meet 2008" he took the docs and checked the poverty guidelines and said shook his head and said "OK thank you please ask your husband to return to the window with his passport" he then asked my hubby

11. have you ever been arrested? 12. have you ever traveled to the US? then he said "take this ticket to window 26 to pay for the delivery of your passport do not make any travel arrangements until you receive you passport with your visa" my hubby said thank you and we left he never said congrats or welcome to the US but i took his statement as an APPROVAL AND BY GOD IT WAS our interview was on Friday and my hubby's visa was issued on Monday and available for pick up on Tuesday afternoon was picked up Wednesday and we left Thursday GOD IS TRULY AMAZING!!

What a scary review but with a blessed and happy ending.. Im so happy for you guys! It's been a long time coming.. Just what the doctor ordered for mr. fats! Praise the Lord

Doesn't it trigger it if your hubby has to register to vote?

I think they're talking about the Selctive Service for males between the age 18-25 to register in the event of a draft for military!

[IrieCat 2]

Morning Irie...no 28 is definitely not old...I just tease him cause Den aches and complains some times like he is a little old man...he had a bad injury when he was younger and he hurt his back really bad so sometimes he aches...so I call him old man. I'm in the over 30 group and I'm still hot to trot!

You know Louis is been very achy and painy lately. I am scheduling him a physical next week. I was thinking how the USA has made him more lazy and out of shape. The night shift he is working is not agreeing with him either. PO THANG!! LOL...

[DedicatedWife 4]

MrsTee, I'm def going to look into it. We're not trying to be unlawful, even if neither of us wants Steven to go fight in anybody's war.

If they over 25 do they have to register? Now I need to go and investigate as well...ughhh!

[NatPatBen 3]

MrsTee, I checked into the voting & found that to be eligible to register in Texas, you must be a U.S. citizen. I still checked to see if Steven was registered to vote and he's not.
