No NVC case # yet, I call them about 3-4 times a day.

Hope they don't keep a record... "oh yeah that's that annoying one, she keeps calling lets not assign a case to her yet"... Not likely I kno... I'm just paranoid.

Looks like it will hopefully be next week for me for a case #.

Hope everyone continues to have progress on their cases. :thumbs:

Thanks Lidia, and you and your hubby are beautiful too. Many, many good wishes to you two, and we're all hanging on in there. It will take us a day or two to get up to speed on how everyone is doing. We went back into a bit of a depression with the Police Cert delay, but we're OK now.good.gif

The only positive thing about the TSC mess is that it allowed people from different horizons to meet, share and support each other.

Thanks for all the support, advices, friendship....

Yeah, I see my husband every few months as well, otherwise I'd be dead if he couldn't come visit me. His last visit was about 2 weeks. Next time I see him is when I move to the USA :D

Glad you like the name laughing.gif

Yep, me too!! Our last trip together was 2 weeks also!

I hope it won't be over 2 months before I see him again!

I also hope he has another surprise trip somewhere for my birthday, he did mention about a big surprise when I get there :whistle:

The best part of this was that I got 4 honeymoon trips between last year and this year, sweeeeeet :dance:
