*congrats on the recent approvals

*congrats on the new additions (baby) to the family

*fi unnu wid plans fi go back a yaad soon, kissteet pon unnu - jk

*congrats on drivers license

*good luck with the upcoming wedding planning

*good luck with upcoming interview dates

*everyone dealing with immigration hassles - a special prayer for you

I passed finals (by the skin of my teeth) last week, and our wedding here in the states is now postponed. I need to focus more on my studies! We are still waiting to get everything together (including medical info from civil surgeon) to send in packet for AOS

Question: for financial form that needs to be certified, can I send in a photocopy of the original form w/ stamp or should I get two copies certified (one to send in with AOS package and another for our interview date)?

Best wishes to all who want to add to their families-babies are indeed a blessing.

Hey Jonesie -- We've missed you!

Definitely send the original with the AOS package. Get two copies notarized so you will <basically> have two originals. I really don't think you will need an original for the interview....but it can't hurt.

Rhonda - Hope you have a good night at work, sorry you're stuck on the night shift

Congrats on the AOS interview It's such a good feeling.

Thanks for the well wishes It's really hard with Tony working days and me working nights

Hey Mindy

Thanks for the info. This Friday we're gonna get the forms notarized, go to DMV (I need to get my name changed) and take care of all that other mundane stuff. I am so glad to come in the forum and see that progress is being made (Julie, your 6 month filing to interview date gives me hope that we can go to JA and surprise family during the holidays )

How is Hype TV? We still haven't placed the order yet.

For those of you that have Comcast, on Saturday afternoons BETJazz - channel 481 does a Caribbean segment:

St. Lucia Jazz

Caribbean Rhythms

RE TV (Jamaican show)

Wick'd (Jamaican music videos)

TnT Today (entertainment and stories from Trini/Tobago)

those are just a few of the shows that keep me locked on the couch every Saturday!

Sorry for the night shift - but it's better than being unemployed. How long do you have to work nights?

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE! BE SAFE

You're just saying that now because you get to see your man ALL the time! I only see mine while he's sleeping - ok maybe that is good - we can't fight if he's sleeping Seriously though, it sucks And to answer Jonesies question, I am on afternoon shift indefinately. They moved me with no notice - told me on Friday I'm going to 2nd shift on Monday - and they can move me again whenever they feel like it

Jonesie -- I haven't changed my name on the Drivers License either.....think I am going to do that this week. I am really tired of having to drag out a copy of my Marriage Certificate because my License doesn't match the name on my credit card.

Well.....we are now going on Day 3 with no HypeTv. Something is wrong on the Jamaican end. There is a message on the screen that basically says "we know, we know, don't call us to complain." This is the first time we have had any problems. Otherwise, Roy really likes it -- he has it on all the time. Personally, I think it was a really good investment.

We have BetJazz on DirecTv too......I have seen those shows but haven't watched yet....guess I'm gonna have to!!

Just had to share.

My hubby was right....

He was saying the twins are boy/girl.

I thought girl/girl

Rickie wins! Twin A is a boy and twin B is a girl

Yes, we ARE taking suggestions for names!

Congrats to Rickie! I guess Father does know best.

Wow! They can tell the gender already!! Are you planning to give them similar names like my sister in law did with Mariano and Marina? My girlfriend did Taylor and Tyler. In addition to Mindy and Roy, there are Dylan and Dakota. I say name them after big banks! Chase and Barclay.

Hello all

David and I took a trip down to see my mother and to meet the rest of my family.It went quite well, everyone seem to like him, it helps, not that I care much at all We had our biggest fight ever about his driving, I knew he was mad at me cause it starting yelling at me in patios, It's hard to argue when he's fussing it me in a different lanuage Anyways we made up after we got home

Rhonda: I feel your pain our love making session have turned into slam bam thankyou man, as we pass each other on the way out. Absence will make the heart grow fonder... I send David kinky text messages...it helps On the other hand don't let them push you around. They probably feel as though you won't leave because you have been there so long. With all that experience, you won't have trouble finding something else. I am putting my two weeks notice in tomorrow when I go in at this job I just started, because I cannot take it anymore, working at night that is, Three days turned in to four days, then they they added a weekend.... It was different when I wasn't happy, now I want to be home when my family is home.

Squitto's, That makes no Frigging sense.

Congrats Elizabeth and Henry....On the new Job...Yea don't let those hatters get to you. Hospitals have wonderful benefits. congrats

Good luck on the upcoming interviews Congrats on the recent approvals....Esp on receiving the green card without an interview..you were truly blessed, We are doing the same CSC dance.

and by the way....Our AOS stuff in in the Mail so our wait begins....Thankyou you all for answering my annoying questions. We decided not to to the EAD/AP.with hopes that our green card comes in less than six months.I know that I am being optimistic but we will see. Money is not an issue right now, David keeps himself busy with the GED classes, Scoccer and helping a friend of mine with Landscaping, so I think we are fine for now.

Enjoy the rest of the week. Later, I have a job interview, a meeting and going to look at some cheap ### apts that will save us about $500 a month in preperation to buy a house in two years.
