December Filers

[Mariye & Ky 172]

Oh my gosh I didn't see theirs!!! By the way I made this taste dish tonight for dinner, very easy but next time I would consider browning the the meat (I used all pork) before it goes in the first time, the plucking it out, browning it and putting it back in seemed unnecessary?

My contact with tim/mav was on March 30th, they are waiting just like us

Actually I prefer just a chicken adobo! the chicken gets really tender even if it's well done unlike the pork, the pork gets tough when it's over cooked....

Same here, chicken and it's much healthier in my humble AmFlip opinion. Why does that pork get tough anyways? I know you say overcooked, but if you don't cook pork well, you could get parasites. (That is one thing that will gross me out... worms in the intestine)

My mom's is never dry or tough, and that is why I don't make it... I can't do it properly. Besides, I'm not much of a porky pig eater anymore.

Lee you have to produce one of JennieBeeze Zamboranga regional recipe (where in the heck is that?!)

Hello everyone!

I hope everyone had a nice weekend. I had trouble logging on to the USCIS website so I couldn't see if I got fondled. I believe I locked myself out the system. At any rate, I registered again under a different e-mail address. I now see that I was "fondled" on 3/21/2011 also!!!! woo-hoo!!!

Getting added to the Decemberite TimeLine

Ladies and Gents,

Managing, uploading, sorting and picture-fying the December Timeline is a daunting task. I am more than happy to do it for the Dec. Fam as it gives me something to focus on in relation to our journeys!

HOWEVER, hunting in the posts for who needs what change and who needs to be added is difficult seeing as how I don't check the site every day. Going forward, it would be easier if you provide me a link to your VJ Timeline (the one that tells your your approximate NOA2 adjudication window), because that is the timeline I use to update our timeline. Just providing me your username and information makes it harder for me to research your details. A link to your timeline will be good. Otherwise I wait until you post here and I can click on it...hence the fact you don't get added as soon as you want to be.

While I understand that you being able to update the list your self might seem easier, in the end could create a nightmare for the group. Also - in order to do something like that our timeline will end up being ugly and I'm just not willing to stoop to an ugly timeline. Our colors are pretty. And I like it that way.

So, no link? No add. Good link? Add.

Also - private messages to me are no good. I never check 'em. Sorry!!!

We're almost there gang! WoooooooooooooooooooHOOOOOOO!

OK since Jamila is teaching and working admin too... I don't think she saw the post on linkage. So, here is her link to her timeline although the touch date is not on there. http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=93887 (But, I have her post above when she got the touch date)

DizzyLox!

OK that timeline looks amazing and it most certainly does give us all a better reflection than Igor's. Thank you for all your hard work on this. And one other thing, I want to acknowledge you for dreamin' up the Decemberite Fitness Challenge! Girl, not only did you motivate me to "MOVE MOVE MOVE", but I am noticing a big difference in my concentration and focus, as well as strengthening a shoulder that I thought was forever going to be painful and weak. Although, [through my beginner yoga classes] I am new at the flexibility and agility activities... i am really loving it!

Love ya!

Mari

Hi think I've done this twice now. We are excited about other Decemberites and are glad you found us!

Please add us to the Timeline: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=103303

of course

I need you to update your Timeline on VisaJourney (you can do this from your profile). Tell us what Service Center your I-129F was routed to (CSC or VSC) and make sure we know your NOA1 date.

Hi Mari,

Thanks for the message. Yes, we did get touched on 3/22. I have been a bit behind. Now travelling on business in India. Will go to Singapore on the weekend. I got flights for Piemsiri to join me there. We are excited to see one another again as well as to get to the NOA2.

On the fitness front I went to the gym yesterday 30mins of cardio and 20 on abs and obliques. Congrats on the fondle. How do you know you were fondled?

Hi Mari -

Congratulations on the NOA2s received so far!

Here is our timeline:

http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=93914

NOA1 is from Dec 13

And our service center is California

Good luck to us all!

[∞♥ 17]

Can we be added to the list?

I am curious, those whose applications have been touched since submitting and those who are getting the NOA2, were these sent to the CA or VT service center?

Our application shows it hasn't been touched since the NOA1.

Is the VT. center behind?

I keep getting the feeling that we're in limbo here on the east coast.

Dizzy, I cannot say enough how adorable you are for all the hard work you put into the Timeline! Absolutely Fantastic Job Sissy!!

OK now don't spank me but I went through both VSC & CSC lists to find any newbie Decemberites that have been missed with an Invite from us. Expect to see a few new "faces in love' around here!

I love ya to bits!

Mari

PS: Gurlfriend... are you going to post us a recipe from Mr Loxy's hometown?

Welcome Derek & Karol to the Thread!!!!

Very happy to see you here and hope you find "your" Decemberite Family Thread Amazing!

[Christine + Blake 18]

Congratulations to our new approvals!! I am insanely jealous (and cursing being stuck at VSC!) but I am also so happy for y'all!!! Keep us updated on the process.

Our venue issues have been resolved, so we officially have our new (and final, I hope!) wedding date of May 4th 2012. Definitely a relief, and now this means I'm REALLY far ahead in the wedding planning so thats off my radar for a long time now, phew.

Gotta get moving with the fitness challenge, now I have to maintain my current weight for over a year more! D: hahaha

Welcome Brian & Chay to the Thread!!!

Happy to see you here. You'll meet many dynamic Decemberites here to live, love and laugh along thru great and not so great times during our VJ. Keep a postive spirit OK? Nobody is left behind cuz we're in this together.

A bunch of CA got touched one week in March when they were digging through the boxes to expedite Japan. I haven't seen any trends from VT showing the same thing, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.

The VT center is about a month behind in approvals than CA, however, they have the same relative # of approvals in 2011, so hopefully VT will catch up soon. The same thing happened last year with CA when they stopped working K's for a while.
