Hang in there Rings and Loke! NOA2 will come really soon!

Have you guys started organising your stuff you need for the interview? That could be something to do to take your mind off the waiting.

I think we all know what you're going through, with the post-visit moods and everything! We've all been there. :) Most days are good but some days... I just want my baby :(. But I'm comforted to know that even though its not right now, it WILL happen some time in the future. Same as for you guys. Only a matter of waiting it out. :dance:

Come on that NOA2! :thumbs:

Hello Everyone....

Hi Kath...long time no talk.

Have been reading up on how everyones doing everyday..and im so glad to hear everyone is moving along.. and even for those who are at a stand still, just remember back when it all first started and how long ago that was..you all have come so far.

I on the other hand have been pretty down the past few days..it feels as tho i'll never get to see Ron....He's been trying to save up money and i have been trying to sell some things on ebay..arrrg that seem to be going nowhere how frustrating...it just never seems like its going to happen everything is at a stand still till we meet.

I went on a job interview yesterday that had the potential to help our situation tremendously but didnt get...ive been a lil bummed ever since...Our rain storm seems as tho its never gonna end :crying: ...I'm trying to not think so much about it and am trying to keep my chin up.....I still get to hear his voice everday and that soothes the soul (for the moment) but giving a big-smack-a-roo on those lips would be great right now.... :blush:

Anyways everyone keep their smiles on..as i will try and do the same...Remember we all have someone we love and who loves us back.. and that should keep all of our hearts company in the mean time....

hey Tamzo,

Well interview at Job Agency went well,

they said they will call me today.. but no calls as yet.. only 12.40pm here Thursday..

Wifee will be quizzing me on the Road Rules of Massachusetts :unsure::blink:

Some time this week or this long weekend for Memorial Day..

Want to go for my Permit next week sometime depends on Wifee's Work Schedule..

All I got was A STAMP AND DATE ON MY CR1 VISA FOR AOS IN MAY 09.

GOT MY SSN# IN THE MAIL 7 DAYS AFTER I APPLIED FOR IT IN PERSON AT LOCAL OFFICE.

Hoping you and everyone else in our "boat" can soon gain Employment and a licence

to Drive in this Country.. lot of the driving i have seen reminds me of Melbourne :wacko:

and some of Sydney Driving lol Left ahnd lane to turn right.. and so on..

And not having any sort of Any Particular Public Transportation in Particular

Part Of Massachusetts is mind boggling considering the size of the place

and how many people don't drive or won't drive because Gas Prices are going through the roof.

But enuff of my nagging :whistle: I am just glad to be here with my Lovely Wifee Cheryl :luv:

Hope everyone is Happy and still going strong.

And to the ones that are awaiting Notification.. soon Grasshopper Soon

When you can snatch the pebble out of my Hand Grasshopper,

That is when you will be ready to face the world :huh:

And when 2 BECOME 1 ...UNITED AGAIN IN ENDLESS LOVE... (L)

Cheers

AMEN to that! I'm sure it's a bit difficult to get used to the new environment where things are literally flipped! Make sure to practice in Boston, land of the one way streets (in the same direction!) You won't have any problems there because there are rarely any two-way streets haha.

Hope everyone is Happy and still going strong.

Moonie - you know what Stewart did? He withdrew, using his ATM card, the maximum amount per day that he could for like a week (he didn't have THAT much)...that way there was no fee...

It was easy :) Might be the most recommended way to do it but it worked for us

I told him that. I was like just use your ATM card. I also told him that I could add him to my account or he can just use cash. It isnt like he will get here and be paying bills.

Hi Sharyna :)

What a pain in the ####### with the police.....Any news on what your case number is? Who did you email and should we do the same for confirmation? We have tried calling a couple of times but the automated system says there's no record of our petition yet. Will try again this afternoon.
