have you noticed, even on our timeline here on VJ, that there are some days with no or just a few approvals and then those days with a flood of them? I have a weird feeling that on those quiet days they are busy with some other petitions... ehhh

Yes. It really looks that way. And it's very unfortunate. The lack of consistency is what has held us back at VSC for so long. If they would just consistently direct some resources at the K1, it would be better. Very worried about how long we're all going to be waiting. It's just insane...I've held off on service requests and congressional inquiries...But I'll reassess everything by the end of the week or early next week. Maybe I'll just have a call put in by my Congressman to see if I can confirm it's in the hands of an adjudicator (as Photomile was able to) as it might help to alleviate some of the anxiety..But I think we're not going to be too pleased with the results this week. Whatever is going on at VSC...It's not good. The place is understaffed. and overworked..and we're all caught in the crossfire. The problem with the processing times could easily be solved. But it's simply not a priority. The K1 and I-130 just aren't an area of big concern for the service centers.

I'm still not sure if I should put in an inquiry. Calling USCIS won't do any good, but I feel helpless just waiting here. I'm not giving up hope for today though! We saw a few late afternoon and evening approvals last week.

Well my notification date is the 20th of January, but when I put my number in it says 'received on the 18th' so maybe we are a bit further apart. Not that that matters, however, considering how random the approvals seem to be!
