Yardie Party!!! Come as you are - Part 1

[My4rmylife 0]

I am bussing my butt . I've booked a million flights but we were trying to book our hotel & flights separately, which I am hesitant to do also. We wanna fly into MoBay- stay 3 nights at an all-inclusive resort, then travel to Kitson town and spend another 3 nights then come back to Philly.

I've been browsing Cheap caribbean, skyauction, booking buddy, etc... I use Bookingbuddy.com to search Expedia, trip advisor and all them...

Thanks much love... Im a keep up the search

i love it in kitson town except the red dirt ...my mother in law lives ther

Hi LS!! how you doing?

I am innocent do like kj

Doing very well Mrs. Tee in March the baby will be 1 and my older daughter will be 6. Me and hubby are doing very well, we had our rough patch when he first got here. I realized we were in love with each other but didnt really know much about each other and with two children in the picture it was tough. We hung in there and I can honestly say we are just now really enjoying each other the most. Its like we are newlyweds after 1 and a half years of marriage.How are you doing???

That's good to hear LS...I know its difficult adjusting with just the two of us...I can imagine if we had kids...I'm glad to hear that things are going well for you and your family.

Hello ladies (and gents!). Hope everyone is doing well. I'm a bit frazzled and feeling very overwhelmed at the moment- feeling like there's sooo much to do and I'm steady running out of time...hoping this will pass soon. Hope everyone stays safe during all this crazy winter weather!

Wow this is NOT the hot spot anymore. I guess FB has taken over.

LoveSponge- Good to hear from you. So glad everything is going well now. It's sooo not easy transitioning from a long distance relation to real life. I can't even image throwing 2 kids in the mix. That's great though that you guys stuck it out and are enjoying one another again. I can't believe baby girl is going to be 1. Wow. Are you are facebook?

Tamisha- Take a deep breath. Everything important will get done and the rest can just wait. Just make sure you are taking care of YOU!

Hello everyone....wanted to come on here and officially give the update on how our interview went on Friday... Most(if not all) may already know some of what happened but here it is in full....brief but full.

Michael went for the interview and at first he said the officer couldn't understand him so the CO told him to hang up the phone and try again...Michael said though that he could see before he even started asking questions that there was his name written on the blue slip already. After the normal questions...he was told that I would need to let them know when I could come back to the embassy for an interview and I would need to bring a cosponsor paperwork. Some of you may remember I was attempting to use assets in my Affidavit of Support but thought that they might require a co-sponsor as well. Long story short...I had a "friend" lined up to be that co-sponsor and the week before she backed out wanting me to have an immigration attorney write up some sort of amendment to the AOS...ray ray ray....ultimately I told her NEVER-MIND and we would attempt the interview with assets alone....

anyway...you can all imagine how I must have felt to #1 have to go down to JA short notice and #2 find a co-sponsor. Trying to remain positive I went ahead and booked a mileage tkt(blessing #1) I had been holding onto for me to fly out Sunday Dec. 5th and return Friday Dec. 10th. This was the only time open in Dec to use these miles and happen to fall the week before my finals so I will only miss my review (blessing #2) I wrote a letter to the embassy telling them how much of a financial hardship this was and how when I had asked to attend when I could have planned I was denied.....rae..ray...rae..I told them if they were unable to waive my attendance then I need them to accomodate my schedule and book the interview on Dec 7th or 8th... OF WHICH THEY DID (blessing #3) Next I started compiling a letter to write to my friends...taking great care to explain all of the technical mombo jumbo and putting it in laymans terms to advise of responsibilities and requirements to be a co-sponsor. Having to dispell many of the myths that those not involved in this process have...Not feeling 100% comfortable with the feeling of begging people to help me. Along with opening up all of my personal business....THEN MY 4th BLESSING OF THE DAY.....

One of my VJ sisters sent me one of many emails supporting me and assuring me that it will all work out....along with saying that she said she really felt that she needed to be my/our co-sponsor. She understood how I must be feeling not because she had been in the same situation but similar and people really reached out to her so she felt that it was her turn to reach out to me... (F)

I was in such shock that someone who only knows me from this board and FB would show me so much love...I could do nothing but cry and thank her repeatedly. Now, I know yall is some nosey heffers and part of me want to leave the story hanging since we havent had one of Dara's story in a while.. So...But I won't be mean... MY ANGEL WHO WILL BLESS ME WITH MY HUSBAND IS....... Danna (L)isn't that just the most amazing thing??? :crying:

Oh and to my ATL sisters...I have a 10 hour layover in Atlanta on my way back...so....I may be looking to one of yall to rescue me from the airport (at least to go for drinks or dinner???)

Hi I'm new to this site and you basically went thru what I am going thru right now. My husband's interview was yesterday and was given a blue slip and told I need to return with him. Can you advise me on your experience when you went in? It would be greatly appreciated. I emailed the embassy asking for Jan 20 or 21st and they replied stating the earliest appt they have is March 16th, :-( anyway please advise me on your experience. Thank you
