What were the dates for the Yardie link up again? And where exactly is it going to be?

[Thompson2 1]

They Orlando Yardie Link Up is Oct 22-25th. I think there are some other link ups going on too. So far Tee and KJ (and hubbies) are coming for sure. Then there are a few maybes. So far the plan is Friday night we're going to have some drinks downtown (as long as the travelers are still up to it). KJ is going to have a mega sexy party and meet up with us on Saturday after she has shopped until she ALMOST dropped. Not sure what the rest of us are doing in the day Saturday, but Saturday night is Tee's birthday (KJ and Hubby's too) celebration at Bob Marley's (dinner) then maybe hitting some other clubs at CityWalk or just stay at Bob Marley's. Then Sunday is Wet N Wild (water park for all you dutty minds). I know a cool place that has kareoke/drinks/dancing if anyone is up for it Sunday night, or we can have our own party at my house, or go downtown to a comedy show and for some more drinks (whatever, I don't care). Then Monday we do a little something (???) before people fly out.

Any changes or additions???

Congrats to all the mommies to be!!! So excited to see all the VJ babies!!

Happy 1st anniversary to Bajan!!! Happy bday to hubby too!!! Soo much to clebrate and best of all is being able to do it together.

Tara- I agree with Sus, see if you can just do photography full time. I love that party special you are running.

DW big up on starting WW. I know it's NOT easy!! Just starting though is a HUGE step. Keep up the good work!

Nat- Does Steven still want a dozen kids? Vaughn did when he moved here, but then just told me America is not a place to have a bunch of kids and 2 is enough..lol

JQ- I know you had too much fun registering for the baby. Did you find everything you wanted? How's babygirl?

Hubby is talking and destracting me so he is to blame for me ending this now and forgetting someone I am sure. I still love you all though!

Her Brooke, girl, I found so much stuff and had a great time with my sis and my best friend. The scanner was so cool, we was scanning alot of stuff.

Whats so sweet, hubby called my sis and said he had $200 that he wanted to spend on the registry to buy all the little stuff that anyone didnt buy,maybe a week b4 the shower, because my family has even went today and started buying things

He just dont now she told me, he is soooo sweet, and wants to show his support for the shower.

Walmart didnt have any registry we went to 3 of them all there registries had down computers.

So I registered at Burlington Coat factory baby depot for the registry

Goodmorning vj,

It has been 4 months that the petition i130 in the process for my step daughter. I called uscis and they tell me the same ting to wait 5 months. I pray that my wife and I hear her approval this week or sooner.

When I filed for my wife june 09, I sent wife and daughter pic,documents and all that but was told to do separate petition for the child. It has been 4 months the petition for the child is sent and no noa2 yet. I'm going crazy waiting and just the other day the child cries for mother to get her. Its too long and hard on mother and me too.

I filed for her in May of 2009, we didnt get an interview til april 2010 yes you have to do separate petitons. you just have to wait sorry, maybe mom should go back for a few weeks, there is no telling when it will happen and still your case is in uscis not even got to nvc yet as you know that a few months also(L)

Awwwwww that was sooo sweet of him! I'm happy for you. He has really turned his train around. That's awesome that your family has already started buying. Everyone is excited for Jamerica! I love Burlington. They have some really nice kids stuff. I'm always just looking through when I'm there. I'm a mess, I know. Did you pick a theme? Or are you not really doing a theme?

MyJam-- I agree with JQ. I think it would be good if mom could go back and spend some time with her daughter. I know you guys may not want to be apart, but atleast you are adults and have a better understanding that this is not forever. I HATE this process. What is the point of keeping a child away from her mother for sooo long? They can't be doing big background checks on her. Ugh!!

Since it's slow up in here, I thought I would share something I was thinking about the other day. Maybe it's only me, but if anyone would understand it would be my beloved Vjers!

Ok,don't know why I was thinking about this, but my basic thought is that: I got to know hubby enough to know I loved him more than anyone else and that without a doubt I wanted to spend my life with him, but some of the day to day things I didn't get to know through our LDR. Some may have been due to being on our best behavior, not wanting to spend our little time together fussing (I know some of you go into it and that's great), but some other stuff like how he would care for me when I was sick wasn't know purely because I never got sick while visiting him. BTW he takes such good care of me. It's better than I could ever ask for. I'm not trying to say he takes horrible care of me and if I had known I wouldn't have married him. It was just an example I could thing of that we didn't happen to experience while on our short visits.

I kind of feel like in some ways our relationship started backwards. What I mean is when you are dating (in the same town) you learn each others day to day doings and pretty much encounter all situations, such as being sick (stick with my example, lol). You build up a solid base and things progress, as I would say normally and eventually you love the other person and decide you want to marry them. For us with just seeing each other a few days here and there, I fell in love with him, but now we are having to go back to like we were just starting out and learn trivial day to day things about each other. It's not all bad. I just thought with this visa journey we have to do, we progress in a different way. I think this can cause fights and we may think it's more devestating because now we are married, but we most likley we would of had these same fights if we were just dating, settled them, moved on and no big deal. I guess I just wanted to say that while we all found a love we wouldn't trade, we kind of got thrown in to a difficult situation and it's OK that things aren't always going to be smooth. In the end our love with see us through, but this is a unique process.

Thanks for listening (reading).

Thanks for sharing...I so needed this! I find that this is so true...its the simple little things that irritate the heck outta of me. This visa journey is no joke. I'm so thankful that I found my love but it definitely is some unexpected things I didn't take into account.
