MY GUY IS REALLY PISSING ME OFF, ITS SO HARD TO GET HIM TO UNDERSTAND WHEN I SAY I AM TIRED I JUST WANT TO REST ,AND ITS LIKE HE ALWAYS TRYING TO COMPARE HOW THINGS ARE DONE IN JAMAICA TO HOW WE DO THINGS IN THE USA DO ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEMS.

Oh Ms Nelly, I had that problem with hubby. Even though he is considering Miramar, Kingston 21, he will experience that things do run differently here than in Jamaica. Honestly, he is going to have to experience it for himself before he understands where you are coming from.

In this regard, you going to have to let him have it. You need some time for yourself; what...him expect you to be at his every beck and call? Does he have trust issues? Nip this in the bud before he comes here thinking he is going to be a ruler over you, is equal partnership we are dealing with here

Fi real, you must be tired Girl you need a serious spa day. You let him have it, shock him into being more considerate. As hardworking as you are, you need some serious rest. Has he always been like this?

[JA Tam 7]

Does anyone have any idea which form/agency I need to contact to have our original documents returned to us? At POE, we were told we have to request the return of our original documents. Not sure if anyone has had the opportunity to do this.

Thanks.

We go to the Embassy at about 6:30 there were about 15 people outside. We waited for the Embassy car park to open, then about 6:45 there were like 30 people outside, it was not too bad we walked up on the side on the right for those with 7am interviews that line went fast then 715 then 730.We were in right on time. Gaurd asked to see our paper. He asked who i was and then let us both in. Security checked through our bags,then we walked through the courtyard to the next door. A man was there behind a desk with another security agent giving a speech about what papers are needed to be signed, and to sign your police report then gave us a pink long slip and took the interview letter. We then went thru another securtity thing and entered in to section A. and sat down until our name was called and we seemed like we were playin musical chairs as someone got up the next person moved over people were sitting there handwriting the forms that came in packet 3! some went up to the agent at section A and kept getting sent back to fill out things correctly.They called my fiance up he opens his folder and they say you seem to be very organized. She filled out a pink form checking off what we needed and in order so we went over to the side and put those papers in order and returned to the window. She asked me for job letter, tax returns and i handed her all the fincancial stuff she waved and said no more lol our file was the biggest one! its in a pink folder. She then said go to section B we went there sat down others were getting fingerprinted. Some were asked if they ever committed any crime or traveled anywhere out of the country. We got there the man asked who i was, i told him then he fingerprinted my fiance and sent us off to section C. As i was sitting in section B i was hearin WHO i wanted us to get to for the interview lady number 21 or 23 they sounded nice, helpful and cheery. So i say lets sent on the front row so i can hear. So all it all there were alot of families there with lots of children. About 3 got sent to get DNA test as they added the fathers name late. One guy was there with his daughter, she looked to be about 8-10 she says why did u take so long to do this what were u out of the country! were you DEAD! she was loud too everyone laugh. One lady got approve in like 2 min they didnt ask her nothing really. One guy was trying to adopt someone he raised but he had no proof of any kind to support his case he was gettin smart with the consular officer but she remain calm and said sir im really trying to help you here so calm down. She was very helpful with him. Did not witness any denials. One couple was up there over 30 minutes i dont know what happened with that. They called my fiances name and he jumped! lol they said his entire name over the loud speaker. So we go to the very last counter, 24. She says hello she asks who i am. We are both there smiling away at her looking pleasant. I say his fiance she says oh GREAT! so then she asks him if he has any form of sickness or illness, he says no. She asks has he ever committed any crime, he says no. She asks when did you meet and i answer Dec 30 we both kinda answered. She said how many times have u been here i say TEN... she says wow and smiles...She oh all this information in such short of time. Just this past Dec, she asks again...She had a hard time flipping over our heavy folder Then says when will u get married so he says Dec 30th the day we met so she says awwwwww. She says to him you dont have 7 wives in another country do you. He laughs and says oh nooo. She pulls out the little pink small paper and says congratulations and then tells him where to go to airpak. I think thats all.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!

Aliens In Jamaica

That was funny! Wouldn't that be nice to have that "feature" on our men?!!!!

[rhondapayter 0]

They meant if I go a week past Dec 15th (EDD) and he's still not here *lol* didn't mean to worry you!

My heartburn has subsided but my left ankle looks like one big ### sausage LOL and my right is not as bad. Seems like my left side is taking more of the brunt of this pregnancy (those 5 stretch marks I told you about are on the left side too). Don't even remind me about "getting comfortable" - that does not exist anymore

Ok, that makes sense! You had me worried for a minute! My right side seems to be suffering the most. My back hurts on the right side and my right foot/ankle is more swollen than the left

MY HUSBAND FINALLY GOT A DATE (NOVEMBER 13TH @ 1 PM).

That's GREAT!!!! You waited long enough - you'll be together soon!

[rhondapayter 0]

got approve easy only like 2 real questions im abt to type all that up. We were like the most organized and dressed for business

Congrats!! I hate to bring this up, but are you guys ok now? Was he just getting cold feet? I wish the best for you

[rhondapayter 0]

She asks when did you meet and i answer Dec 30 we both kinda answered.

Then says when will u get married so he says Dec 30th the day we met so she says awwwwww.

Me and Tony also met on December 30!! It was 2003 though! We got married almost one year later, on Dec. 11, 2004. I wish we could have gotten married on Dec. 30 also. That's a great idea!!

(Hey, you weren't on a cruise when you first met him were you? I was on a New Year's cruise that stopped in JA when I met Tony.)

Thanks Rhonda!! I am hoping I feel better. I went to the doctor today and have lost 10 pounds in a month and a half. Due to morning sickness. Eww thats the glucose test yuck!! I hate drink chalk like material. I had to do that once when I was sick in the hospital. The doctor send next month its time to draw more blood yippee. Ew and a wonderful flu shot tomorrow. UGH

The glucose test isn't that bad. It tastes like flat orange soda. It's just really sugary. Keep it in the fridge before you drink it - it goes down better! The chalky drink that you're talking about, I think that's the one for the Upper GI test. I've had that one done too, and yes that stuff is NASTY

I can't believe you've lost so much weight Is there anything you can eat that will stay down? I know carbs worked best for me when I was feeling ill - crackers, toast, pasta, etc.
