Make digital ones They don't take up any physical space!

.....whaaaaa? It's not the same! You can't cross stuff off of digital lists on your wall! Gah! How would I keep all my ducks in a row?! LOL

Oh good. You have a weekend to think about other things, because the senator says "answer on Monday." What are you going to do with your free time?

I want to, and then I look around and go "but this isn't clean...and you can't put more stuff in here...fix it fix it!" lol. My worst thing is making lists, then tacking them up EVERYWHERE...

On weekends I always think about the process. This will end when I am with my wife in the states. On weekend, as usual, I talk, chat with wifey I rest and go to rehearsal in the afternoon at church. I play piano for my church, I'm christian.

I emailed the DS-3032 same day I got the case #, but one who's NOA2 got their DS-3032 and AOS Bill same day. Lucky them maybe?

I received my DS-3032 in the first package (with the case numbers and such). But why are you concerned about that? Haven't you emailed the DS-3032 to NVC already?

Doesn't it make you feel MORE stressed to never take a day off from thinking about the process? I try not to log in here much even, because I need a break. After my weekend, on Mondays I usually feel refreshed and ready to go - but by Friday I'm ready to take my phone and ram it down the next DoS operator's throat that tells me wrong info - that's how I know it is time for a break!

I know how you feel actually. I have a physical agenda for school to cross off assignments I've done. With all the apps and such out there, I'm sure it would have been easy for me to find an online, digital agenda, but I too like the feeling of crossing things off.

You can keep your physical ones, as long as you throw them away once everything is crossed off

I did the same thing for my immigration process. Here's a snapshot of my sticky notes on my wall with each step of the process. Took them off my wall once each step was complete.

But I still don't get what you're concerned about. Them sending the DS-3032 doesn't mean anything. It's standard. What you should be focusing on is them accepting your DS-3032.

THAT is amazing! Mine just end up being point form lists on white paper, literally tacked to my wall. Yours is AWESOME! What did you use?!

I called nvc, the embassy has not given their final decision yet.... I'm happy because today my wife received a letter at her house from nvc date April 18th stating our request was denied. This letter was written for the previous request that we made and was written the same day we made our second request. The second request was sent at 10hpm april 18th and got a message from nvc saying the reviewing started april 19th. It was just to avoid confusion I called and to tell wifey there is still hope.

You are saying NVC Emailed you a response saying your expedite review started April 19th? I emailed my Expedite request on Tuesday April 17th @7:00 PM and only got the auto-response email

Each time I'm thinking about my wife, the process is there in my mind too as it is the bridge to take me to her. This gonna be a long weekend, I do not like weekend as it delays the process

Hehe I just used this free sticky note pad I had lying around. First column of sticky notes was about the AOS package and what was needed, second column was about the IV package, third column was the medical, and the fourth was the interview. I also then had digital notes of what I needed to do before I moved (sell stuff, pack, rent a car, etc). Lists are awesome And keeps yourself SO organized! Plus, it feels good to cross things off and remove your lists (if physical).

I try really hard to just enjoy my husband when we talk...and we talk on skype every night. If I didn't get to see him, I'd be a very sad girl. But I look at it as, I get two days a week to think NOTHING about that stuff, just enjoy him. I'll take it!

...long weekend? It's no longer than normal, it's 2 days (Saturday and Sunday - NVC is open Monday...)

Really, I emailed april 18th and I got the automatic response the same day and tomorrow morning ( april 19) I got a message from Lola a contractor saying that my request is under review

LOL yes! I need to cross things off my list - actually I take a sharpie and write DONE across each item. It feels good

When I talking on phone with her, when we hang up I still miss her. Even I was using skype when we log out I was still gonna miss her or even I see her. My only way to stop thinking about the process is to be with her and be able to play with that big belly. The baby does not need nobody to touch the belly, she will kick u... Lol I really want to feel the baby kicking my hand.

Those 2 days are like an eternity for me

Ohh, that's even better than just crossing it off! Maybe I should start doing that with my homework assignments in my agenda
