and lean not on your own understanding;

in all your ways submit to Him,
and He will make your paths straight.

Thanks everybody. My fiancee and I are super excited right now. I have been in touch with the embassy, I have already started on the affidavit of support and she has begun to coordinate the docs she can get now.

I hope the rest of the journey is quick. I hope it is quick for everyone else too. If you haven't gotten your NOA2 yet, keep the faith, but don't be afraid to whine and moan and kick and scream. It is your case, it is your life, stand up for it :)

VJ and the forums have been very important to me thus far and I hope that I have given back at least a little of what I have gotten.

Mark :)
