They are starting interview scheduling for Nigeria. OMG I think I will pass out. Already lost connection once now on hold again. Help me Lord. Tummy is doing flips.

Does NVC/DOS still insist that they only schedule interviews at the beginning of the month? Or are they admitting to scheduling all month long now? I'm asking because I'm hopeful that we will have case closed late this week or early next.

Rant: I am tired of my MIL falling for the emotional blackmail of my BIL. He's 40. If he can't fight his own battles by now, face it, he ain't ever gonna fight 'em.

:dance: :dance:

I've had that feeling for the past week. I just keep trying to catch my breath and checking that it still says ready for interview scheduling on the DOS website. :rofl:

Then, I panic because there is so much to do before we move! Aaaahhh!

____

Separate rant: My MIL just posted something rather disturbing on my SIL's new relationship status that she was so happy to have a son in law in addition to a daughter in law. Mind you, they've only known each other for 3 weeks and been officially dating for a day. :wacko:

Poor guy, I hope he doesn't scare easily.

Well the times I have called NVC they just say scheduling hasn't started and there's no set time.

I called DOS I think like 2 weeks ago nice lady and she says yes they say at NVC the 2nd week because most embassies thats when they send dates to NVC. But she said every embassy is different depending on how busy they are.

Please keep us in prayer this journey isn't over again. Right now I have chest pains and I am numb. Truly. Speechless head spinning. Feel like going into labor (Of course not pregnant. LOL)

RANT:

Trying to grow out my eyebrows a bit since I over tweezed one day... UGH... this is so hard not to try and "fix up."

This has to be one of the girliest things I've ever said...

rant: I wish people would just tell me whats up. All my excitement nervousness has turned into scared nervousness. According to him dad didn't talk to him properly and when i got home from work mom was super quiet and kept me weird looks. Dad is normal, mom is acting weird and he keeps telling me everything is good but he isn't really talking much since. I can't tell if he is upset or nervous about things going wrong. why can't people just say it as it is.

on top of all that my computer use to have great battery life and since I got it back from repairs, i will put it away with half the battery left and couple hours later go back and its died.

Woohoo great news! And may The Lord bless you and make these nerves a fond memory to tell your children one day

thanks. I hope all goes well and like you said I can one day tell them the story of how i meet their dad.

ok - here's my rant for the evening.

I really hate to write up 114 lines of text in my signature file. It chaps my @ss. I, instead, put stuff in the 'about me' section - so only folk who WANT to see something , can study it inside my profile page.

Alrighty - end of rant, for the moment.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

people who still do 90 mph in the pouring rain (here).
Where in Ecu can one drive 90 mph at all (the rain aside) without encountering the infamous potholes, many of which can swallow a smaller South American country?

Sad rant: With the death of Hugo Chavez, Correa of Ecu will probably now be the biggest loco in S. America, sigh man.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

If you get the smaller tickers, you can put them side by side and have more.

When are you going to update that "About Me"?

My rant - my SIL sent me a message last night that she wanted to come over today, I asked her when and she hasn't texted me back. Lady, if you want us to actually be here, you best text me back soon.
