All.

I would like to say I'm overjoyed. Approved last night.

There is still much to be done following the many posts from others who have shared their approval status. To everyone still waiting. Be encouraged as your day is near.

I may never meet many of our November and early December filers. If you are in the Houston area. Perhaps, we can meet. Like a reunion of sort to meet others that have shared the journey with a celebration.
