Thanks guys for the Happy Birthday and Anniversary wishes. We are off to Red Lobster tonight to celebrate. I can't believe its been a year and that its my last year in my 20's. My wish for my this year is to find a business that doubles my teaching salary so Dwain and my dreams can come true.

Were also going over to my parent house to tell them that hubby passed his second placement test and made it into freshman English, that he got his drivers licenses, show them the new car we bought, and tell them we are pretty sure hubby has a part time job. We will know on Friday crossing our fingers. We also have started working on an internet business with a great Team. I just never believed it would be so great in 2 months and all this would happen. . O.K. I won't bore people to death with all this news.

This weekend is are USA pig roast reception. We have 185 people attending it should be fun very low key no dressing up.

Thanks again VJ Yardies your the best!! :star::luv:

Met Jan 1998, vows on 2006, Jay Jay born 2008, baby 2 - 2011

Happy Birthday & Happy Anniversary to Jax!!!!!

Jay have a safe flight and good luck on the interview, if you see Marlon say hello!!!!!

Kimmy I am so glad he made it safe!!!!!

Thanks to everyone for the prayers, we need them!!!!

I spoke to JG last night and she said the same thing Rhonda did, to have Marlon go to the interview even if he doesn't have the form!

ARGGGGHHHHHH! Are ALL Jamaican men so dang stubborn?!?! :help:

So I told Marlon this and he's like well I want to follow the rules and the paperwork blah blah blah.... I so wanna strangle him! He did speak to a supervisor at the RGO's office and the guy was like man it shouldn't take that long! He gave Marlon a phone number and extension to call him directly tomorrow so we'll see. I explained to Marlon that he should go to the interview because it will be faster and better for him to be issued a 221G rather than waiting around for another interview! I was almost yelling at him to get through his stubbornness! I told him point blank that I want and NEED him here and I refuse to wait another couple of months. I then asked him if he would just go for us. He said he would. *sigh* Here's hoping for the NIM form tomorrow!

Yeah, they all are STUBBORN! I have gotten to the point that I just pray and ask God for Aaron to see the light and what I am trying to say to him; it then becomes his idea and it makes it easier. Good luck to you both. I have had my share of issues with the RGD. Took us almost 4 months to get our marriage certificate from them.

Hey guys I'm back :)...so his mother did take the bus to the airport and YES I ended up taking her home :wacko: His plane landed about 8:30 and he didn't get out till about 10:30 ..she (his mother) went up to the front of the bars :)wanted to be the 1st one he sees :angry: she was like come up here..I said no whats the point he gotta come this way right !!..so all she said was Kashi look good eeehh..I'm like shut up !

he said they didn't ask him anything at immigration, he asked about changing his visa to IR 1 and they did..changed it in his passport and on the forms or whatever papers they had...which is great

other than waiting it was pretty stress free...

thanks again guys

And the last 2 nites were... :dance:

Kimmy

Cam, I'm sorry to hear what has happened, just put it to God and he will see u thru..trust me. I will have u in my prayers. His time is near, think he can play with ppl feelings like that..keep the faith and be strong girl

Kimmy

Kimmy, I honestly didn't expect to see you back on here until next week ;) . Thanks for letting us know about his POE experience. I will ensure that we ask for the IR1 visa when we get to that bridge. Enjoy the rest of your week!

Congrats Kim...sometimes MILs can be very annoying. But at least you don't have to live with her. lol I'm so happy for you guys and that they gave him the IR1. Now you just have to wait a few weeks for the GC. woohoo :dancing:

Future Mrs., trust, I know all about stubborn men. I've just about had it with my husband. The other day I told him to call and schedule the appointment for the medical this week for no later than next week. He tells me "well the paper says 10 to 14 days so I'm goin to wait until th 25th" :bonk: so (besides the fact that the 25 is a saturday which I didn't find out until later) I was like why are you going to push it so close when you know how slow ja is and you never know what can happen. Then he says " well maybe the 19th" (another freekin saturday) . I was so pissed I was like the paper says at least 10 to 14 days because they know it takes sometime for the information to get to them. You don't want to go to the interview and you not get the visa because the report didn't come. <_<

I feel like just send him the rass binder and not even bother go again. mek him deal with everything himself. I can't tek up this stress pon me head. If him want to wait till September 3rd fi do it a fi him bloodcl@@t problem dat. I'm just about done. I have to start studying for the LSAT and I need to finish my incompletes, get applications ready. He's just not helping at all. Then him come telling me how him don't even want to leave him house and end up inhale ganja smoke. I'm thinking if you get the damn medical done NOW you won't have to be doing all that junk. I'm trying to help you out.

What the hell is wrong with these men?

Also (sorry for the long rant) I sent him the list of questions for the interview that I posted last week. Him tek it mek gospel lol. A tell me that the paper seh dis and dat. So I'm like um that's just someone's opinion you don't have to do everything it says. If you believe you can explain something better in saying "yes, but etc etc." then do it. He's like no I just going to say yes and done because that's what the paper seh. :rolleyes::no: Him fool een.

Ha :lol: Ha :lol: Ha :lol:

It it makes him feel better tell him that when the calls to schedule the "medical" THEY are going to ask him the date of the interview and his appointment will then be scheduled 10-14 days before the interview. This is really what the paper means even though it's not very clear.

He might have a problem getting an appointment if he waits until two weeks BEFORE the actual interview. Then the "worst case scenario" will be going to the interview without taking the medical and you will get the 221g pending the results.

If he doesn't believe you have him call where you are planning on doing the medical and they will confirm that to him. You gotta do what you gotta do :wacko::thumbs: .....MEN.....
