Since I'm supposed to be cooking supper I thought what better time to stall :D

 

This is Off Topic so we get to have fun here and nothing has to be immigration related. That is totally what this forum is for :dance: 

It has been slow here in Off topic for way too long lets bring some life back to it. You can post in here or start a whole new thread it's all good but lets do something to cheer ppl up (L)

 

So here are a few pictures to to start

I picked up some new chicks last week and they are so adorable

Just look at her fluffyness (L)

And here is their adoptive mommy just don't tell her they aren't hers and she won't bite your head off. She has all 5 tucked in under her. Love at first sight.

Oh does anyone have an airfryer? Rotisserie chicken and rotisserie pork loin are a must try. I am really impressed with it. I know it's not the same as deep frying but it is good enough that I don't hate the fries from it I do miss the greasy badness from deep frying from time to time. Not enough to fill my deep fryer up again. 

 

Oh and I swear I did start supper, looks like fish and chips :P

They raise my other chicks so I don't have to keep them in the house doing it myself. Plus they are so pretty they are yard art :)

They are really the best. Snowball took these chicks while not even the slightest bit broody. She just loves her babies and wants them all.

@Ontarkie Do you have any other pets/animals?

Oh boy do I ever :)

3 dogs, a cat, a rabbit, guinea pig, 4 ferrets, 1 green cheek conure, a love bird, a leopard gecko, a fire belly toad, a pacman frog, a chameleon, fish galore, 4 mice they are sweet too and 19 other chickens not shown above. I'm hoping to add ducks this spring too. I think that is it.

You're living the dream! I live in an apartment so my options for animals are quite limited. I do have 2 cats though, that I love dearly.

Thanks, I need to be on a farm, amazingly even in Arkansas they won't let you have a cow in the city :rofl:

 

 

I'm happy I'm out of the apartment stage of my life. Cats are great too, ours is a big baby he's  12 I think.

Store chickens are easier to pluck than silkies are.  After plucking the silkies, you'd be too tired to fry and eat them.

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).
