HEY !!!!! I GOT MY K-1 VISA APPROVED TODAY AT THE LONDON EMBASSY!! WOHOOOOO :dance::dance:

I AM SO SO HAPPY, I CANNOT TELL YOU ALL HOW IT FEELS, AND I FLY TO BE WITH MY BABY ON THURSDAY (THE VISA SHOULD BE WITH ME BY THEN, BUT WILL WAIT TILL I HAVE IT BEFORE BOOK FLIGHT)

SO HERE IS MY STORY IN FULL AS YOU KNOW ME ! HEHEHEHEHEHEHE! OH THANK U FOR ALL YOUR WONDERFUL SUPPORT AND ADVICE - NOW I JUST HAVE THE P.O.E TO GET THRU THEN WORRY ABOUT THE AOS LOL :luv::luv::luv::luv:

took the 6.20am flight to London from Scotland this morning and took my mom with me :luv: arrived in plenty of time and popped into my lawyer friend with a bottle of whiskey for him and to thank him for his help and he sorted my papers into some decent order for the interview :thumbs:

Got to Embassy and stood in the freezing cold - I asked twice if I could go on ahead and was told no to wait in line - eventually got in Embassy and took my ticket number and then sat chatting with a lovely girl who was going for a work visa - I waited and waited and 2 hours later my number was called - I was asked for my birth cert - police cert - affidavit - and medical results - then filled out a form for courier service for visa and told to be called for interview - 15 mins later my number was called and I was standing signing the DS-156 forms - then she asked why I was refused entry before and I explained that I had used 3 visa waivers and she said thats ok, its not to be used regular and she smiled and said I guess you wanted to be with your loved one :luv: she then looked back at the computer and saw that there was a love letter in my luggage at my refusal of waiver and she asked about it, and I explained that I was so very worried about this and that It was inside one of my books - I said I know it looks bad, and she laughed and said well yes it does - but I will take your word for it, she asked me to put my right hand in the air and then she said a sworn statement to which I replied 'I do' - then she said welcome to America and I burst out crying !!!! then she said off you go now and gave me a huge smile : :luv::luv::thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

Im so very happy as you guys all know the struggle it has been for me :thumbs::P:P:P

So ! Im having a well earned glass of wine now ! and I love you all ! never give up even in your darkest moments through this guys...........!!!
