Hello March filers I filed in April I'm just trying to find out how march filers are coming along? I understand there's been a few already approved. Just trying to get a feel for how long is going to take to get to April's.

We have a few approvals started so I suspect movement for March is getting there.  I hope so.

Lol everyone's finally trying to stay sane. I took a break from checking VJ for a couple of days, and it's helped my mental state so much, surprisingly! lol It's so nice to have people like you guys who understand 100% of what I'm going through, but I found the more I check back on here, the more anxious I feel, as I guess this topic is constantly kept on my mind.
I'm visiting some friends this week in another town, and it's been such a nice "getaway" from the thoughts of not being able to take the wait any longer! It's always the first thing on my mind when I go to sleep, and the last one on my mind before I fall asleep either way, but how refreshing it is to keep yourself busy from the Internet and having access to checking your status every 10 mins like anything's going to change LOL

 

Yeah I had to take a VJ break the other day. I know how you feel though for sure. In 8 days I will be with my fiance for a 9 day visit. I can't wait.

I've been moving into a new place for my fiancee and I that will be more accommodating for her situation of being newly arrived with no driver's license for some time. I currently live out in the boonies, about 10 minutes from the nearest grocery store by car at 60 MPH, and decided it would be a better transition for her if we lived in a more "civilized" area for a period of time. It was actually a pretty fun experience looking for our home together and now thinking about how we will decorate it since I'm a guy that's happy with stuff as long as it works, and not necessarily if it all goes together in an aesthetically pleasing manner.   I pre-installed the Wayfair app on a phone I sent her a few weeks back that's on my plan and she's been having a blast creating wishlists for the different rooms. I was very pleased to find that we share very similar tastes in furniture. It's always fun to discover new similarities and things to share with each other!

Well, it's my turn to whine...

Today is our 2 year anniversary, and I miss him so much I started crying twice during our Skype video call this morning/evening 

This year we decided to give each other 2 gifts - one cute and one goofy (have to maintain a healthy level of goofiness to keep sane). I ordered mine from Amazon to save on shipping, and of course they arrived on time, but his are stuck somewhere between the countries, they left Chicago on May 29 and haven't appeared anywhere else since. Not that I am materialistic, but in LDR it's really nice to have something you can touch.

 

98 days since our petition was received, 74 days till the next meeting and 32 days till I have to start doing an extremely challenging 6 week course that will greatly reduce our chances to talk boo

The last package I sent to Ukraine fell off the radar after it left San Fransisco. The day after I filed a lost mail report with the USPS, my fiancee received a phone call from the post office to notify her of a package waiting for her. It was very worrisome not knowing if the special surprises I had picked for her and her mother's gift for Mother's Day would arrive.  It was about a week after the tracking stopped that she received the package, so there's still hope!

I know there's still hope, and it's too early to report lost mail, he only sent it on the 27th. I only hope it is not lost. One of Eric's packages disappeared, and there was nothing we could do because he didn't keep the receipt.

Thanks for your support

You are right, the best thing is to remember that LDR is not forever. Our NOA2s will show some light at the end of the tunnel

You guys should be giving workshops and webinars on mastering LDRs! lol You two are always so creative in your communication, I love it. I might have to steal the 1 cute and 1 goofy gift for a 2-year anniversary hehe It's just so clever and wonderful

Thank you

That's actually one of my plans in case I have some free time after moving to the States

We first met in person 3 months after meeting online, and then we had 9 months to the next meeting. That's quite enough to learn how to be creative. So, if you need more cute/goofy ideas, I will gladly share

I'm loving your way of dealing with it, too!
Origami made me smile!

And it's ok to have a bad day too. Our 2 year anniversary will be in July, and I know already it will hit me, too.
Hang in there, we've came so far! Hugs!
