I wish I could just pick up everything and go move with my husband. SIGH crying.gif...... but I can't.

I saw a cute couple a Kohl's yesterday. I heard the man tell the cashier he is turning 95 on Tuesday. His wife was holding his arm and gazing at him with a smile.... I love seeing couples like that ! I told my husband that is what I want.... He said " don't worry honey"

This waiting really sux. Our lives are all on hold...

I understand whar you are saying...I say the same thing

to my husband. September 18th was my anniversary and I wasn't with my hubby. First one we missed together :(. I cried like a baby. This process is really terrible. I hope things change soon.

Its a NEW day.... I hope we all see some moevement...

Today I will be spending time looking for a cheap flight....

I have one on hold but it is for an extra day.. I really didn't want to stay that extra day BUT... The ticket is $200 more if I leave tuesday. So, its either spend $200 more on a ticket and go back to work on Wednesday, OR Stay the extra day and lose $200 days pay.... Its all the same.... I have til Saturday to find something less than $518.

Of course I'd rather lose the $200 days pay instead of spend it on a ticket and lose time with my hsuband.... Not sure my job will enjoy it though.

Yep, I know how you feel . I am married but I can't be with him... I will see our anniversary come and go also. None of this nonsense will be over by March 9th ....cray5ol.gif

Hi!! im the USC my husband and i live in Portland, OR, he is from Mexico but been living here for 14 years. I'm from Costa Rica, have been in the United States for 8 years and I became a USC 2 years ago.
Our NOA1 date is April 2 2013, it have a MSC # and is in the NBC right now.
I hope time goes fast and we all get approvals soon.
