Does anyone watch Prison Break on Fox?? I so love that show. :yes:

I watched a few episodes last season.

Does anyone watch House? I'm the only person I know who watches it faithfully :unsure: .

:yes: I have been watching like other women watch soaps. I just can't get enough of it. :yes:

Girlfriends is the show for me though, well sitcom. Does anyone watch it??????

I only watch LOST. But I must admit I watch Girlfriends reruns on the weekends. They are nuts! Especially my favorite girlfriend, William. :whistle: One day my niece heard me say "heeellllll no". She looked up and said "Auntie why are you sounding like Girlfriends??" :lol: That is how my brother found out she peeks at that show when no one is looking. :o

Lee

Thanks Lee. I had a nice trip although I wish I could have spent a little more time there.

Jonesie very nice pics. Thanks for sharing.

I just wanted to add that everyone that I met with in Jamaica on this trip has recently experienced or witnessed the violence that has become so prevelant there; and I was dismayed at how it has affected my friends. My thoughts are with all tonight and every night. It's just so sad.

oh my, what happened? :blush: (sorry i'm late and playing catch up)

Good Morning all,

Joanna have a safe trip and good luck on the interview, even though we already know you'll be approved.

As you can see in my siggy, we received an RFE over the weekend. It says that we did not provide enough evidence to prove that we meet the 125% poverty requirement. Whatever!! I refuse to stress about it. I think Satan is trying to set up roadblocks for us. Eff him. I make WELL over the povery requirement, truss mi!! I sent pay stubs, tax transcripts and my complete return for 2004. I had not yet filed 2005 when we submitted our AOS. I'm going to photocopy my entire 2005 return and send it in again, with all the info I already sent. That and the fact that i'm making significantly more at this new job than I made before should make it very difficult for those f!ckers to tell me that I don't meet the requirement...kiss teet

I'm off to pick up Squito from his GED class. He started today!! :dance:

Good luck, Joanna and happy travels!

Happy belated birthday, Dee.

Congrats, Anna on the weight loss!

I am sitting here miserable. I have had a terrible case of hives lately, and dont know if its due to stress, hormonal changes, or what, but its totally making me miserable.

Finally broke down and went to the doctor on Friday, and she did a yeast and bacterial culture but nothing showed up. She thought it was probably allergies, and gave me a rx for steriods, but my sis had the prescription in her purse and keeps forgetting to get it filled.

doc said the other thing it could be is scabies. Oh great, NOW I feel like I have BUGS! She didnt THINK it was that, since the symptoms are not the same, but just the mention makes me crazy. So I got some peppermint oil and mixed it with olive oil (its good for BOTH things) and used that. NOW, the peppermint oil is making me crazy, cold and shivery and my eyes are watering. :( Waaaa I need a hug! :crying:

Second---US CITIZENSHIP..my Jamaican friend became a citizen and you do have to study but its doable. He is not the smartest and he did just fine! Second, you cant do it until he has been in the country for 5 years.

If you are married to a U.S. citizen you only have to wait 3 years to apply for citizenship - not 5 years. The 3 years starts from the time you are issued the Green Card.

OK MINDY!!!! were are your pics??????

Yeah Mindy, Where are your pics? :whistle::innocent:

Well, Lake had an interview yesterday at the local ADM plant we have here in Lincoln. I tell you, he is lucky with interviews. He really wants to finish his GED classes first, becuz this job would have rotating shifts, and not many days off, you get paid time and half on weekends tho. Work sevenone shift, then off four, then seven, then off two, and so on. Not sure he could handle rotating shifts, as he is strictly a morning/day person and I think thats why he feels so off, doing second shift now. The pay dang near makes me drool tho, what with the time and a half. :lol:

Anyhow, the guy told him, just let him know when he is done with classes as they always have openings. I am leaning toward tellin him I think he should take it and just miss class one week a month, rather than stay with this temp job. If he didnt like it, well, then he could always go back to doing temp.

What you gals (and guys) think?

Does anyone watch House? I'm the only person I know who watches it faithfully :unsure: .

I love House, I watch it faithfully and I am completely addicted to Lost.

Hello everyone.

Damien and I are thinking about purchasing a car from an auction. We're going to check it out this weekend. My mechanic used to buy cars than sell them. Hopefully he'll help us out. Damien wants to buy a brand new 2006 Acura XL :wacko: I think the auction or any used car would be best for now.

Acura is a wonderful vehicle even if you can find a used one on auction. I have two, a 2.5 TL and a 3.2 TL. The 2.5 is a 1996 and has 247,000 miles on it. I have NEVER had a problem with it except to have the ignition replaced because I had too many keys on my keychain. I have heard they can get up to 350,000 miles with no problems. My 3.2 is newer but I havent had any problems with it either.

Joanna, I know you are excited about your trip. I told Rickie you are one step closer to having Adrian here. Good luck at your interview and hopefully we will be able to come visit you guys soon.
