Our trip was wonderful. Damien was so happy to see his family and friends. We spent quality time together - it felt like we fell in love all over again. We had dinner with my mother, aunt and Damien's father and brothers - it was very nice. He was a little emotional at the airport. He made out of JA with no problems with the AP but they made him wait 45 minutes in Fort Lauderdale so we missed our flight to DC - after waiting in line for almost an hour because part of the airport was closed so 6 international flights landed at the same time. US Airways booked us on the next flight with no problems. I miss JA already.

Awww. What a great trip you and Damien had. I know what you mean about missing Jamaica; even without any familial connections I feel like it's my second home. It has a vibe like no other place I've been to in this world. You're going back again this summer right?

Good Morning everyone,

Well I am at work (as usual)...geeesss I am working 72 hours this week :crying: ..but i guess I cannot complain I can sure use the money. I was going to try and call the embassy today but the position I am working at work today would not allow me to sit on hold for hours, I am answering 911 calls today so I guess it would not be a good idea to be on hold with the embassy and not answer the 911 calls :whistle: ...at my work sometimes I work a radio channel and assist the firefighters when they are on emergency calls and then other days I answer 911 calls, when I work the radio channels I have more free time to make phone calls.... :hehe:

well anyway enough about my job...hope everyone has a great day!!!!

Until later, Joanna

OK ladies,

Sorry for the all the questioning, but you have "been there done this". For the I-134 Is it too early to get a letter from my employer and a letter from the bank, or should I wait till we get an interview date?

We're going back in July for the Sumfest. My cousin and I are planning to take the kids Memorial day weekend. I hope Damien will be able to go (depending on his job). Both trips are short so hopefully we'll get a long one later in the year.

We shall see, I am the Corporate Jamaican lol... Actually my Mom is from Jamaica and I have Dual Citizenship. Depending on how the startup goes, it's hard to say how long I could be there.

I could be leaving as early as next week.

Worst thing that can happen is it will be a free trip to see the wife. Can't complain....

:thumbs: that's always a good thing!

EXACTLY!!! :thumbs: Good Luck with your case Eric...I hope you are able to get an interview while you are there :yes:
