Congratulations to all the aprovees!!!!!

Please call me, call me, lol. I just called CSC, lady was somewhat helpful, she said my case was in transit to an officer. What does that mean? Someone is walking from the dusty room with my file over to the officers desk at this very moment??? I'm getting very, very nervous and I don't know why.

Good job CSC & VSC with all these approvals all over the board. People dont forget to give atleast some credit to the service centers making us happy even though its a long road.

With this approvals I 'm very optimistic that mine is coming thru soon.

On November 28, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E).

Red Rover, Red Rover, send Tess right over! There. That should do it!

Thank you!!! I'm sure to get it by the end of the day now

149 days and after the first touch I got the petition approval too. For some reason I'm not overjoyed. I'm very grateful I didn't get a RFE, but at the same time I think 149 days is way, way, way too long for this.

I just should not sit here and complain because I know some of us did get a RFE and have a 1-2 week delay and even more stress. I think about these folks and really feel for them because I felt there was a decent chance I'd get a RFE as well.

What also struck me was how accurate the VJ predicted date was. I was predicted to be as 'early,' as December 11, so it was only 12 days earlier than the prediction.

Still....I've waited for almost 5 MONTHS, so here is my happy dance.

Best wishes to our friends here who have to deal with a RFE and fast processing thoughts to all of you waiting for the NOA2.

Congratulations to you and all the rest of the recent approval, I have my fingers crossed and hope to get approved soon. We have the same timeline as you guys.

WOOOOOOOAAH! I missed so much. Great to see so much action.

A big CONGRATS to all the approvals.

well better go update this spreadsheet. Keep the PM's coming and I'll keep updating. It's now food time and I'm hungry so gimme an hour to get them done. In the meantime if you haven't let me know of any updates use this hour to do just that.

I am in agony. Went into work, got handed £100 and got told...."go get xmas tree decorations". We just got a new 8ft xmas tree yesterday. Now my office is at the bottom of the biggest hill in glasgow.....the shops are at the top. So up I go, buy enough lights, baubles and sparkly things for an 8ft tree (thats alot of shiny things). Almost roll back down hill to work. Then the guy that was supposed to be helping build the 8ft tree and decorate...well his job has been on the line for ages due to his bone idleness.....WELL they chose this morning to fire him and I had to do it all myself. I've not done that much physical labour in ages.....i've got muscles aching where I didn't know I had any!!!!

oh, I LOVE putting up Christmas decorations... I wish I'd been there; you could have sat in an armchair sipping whisky while I did it all

In that case, you can come to my house this weekend. I hate decorating! See you Saturday!

[StillThePrettiest 3]

oh, I SO would

I love deciding where everything will go, and climbing about on chairs to get it all in place... here's a shot of my living room last year, just to give an idea (note fabulous eBay linen press - solid oak, handmade, Edwardian - which I got for a SONG, and will be bringing to the States with me )

and the year before last (before I had the press ):

[*julez* 124]

WOW!!! That looks amazing! You are hired! My house never looks that good!

[StillThePrettiest 3]

I think it's at least partially the house

and I don't live there anymore...

never mind; I'll come to yours

[Jeraly 4]

i'm such a dork!!!

I didn't even click on the thing; i just saw the date change.

I GOT MY NOA2!

APPROVED!!!

:D

That's the sort of thing I would do!!! OMG - gratz so much!!!

I just want to say congrats to all the reccent approvees!!!! I can't wait to join your ranks!!!

Well talk about tempting fate

I became a total addict in the last week. I would log in and hit refresh every few minutes. Then realize I was being obsessive and log out.

Wait 5 minutes, then repeat.

But hey, I caught it! So I think at this point, or for sure next week, you can confidently check a few times a day. It just gets hard when you see the same thing again and again. I swear I did a double take when I saw that mine had changed! And then was so nervous, like I said, I didn't even click on it. d'oh!

I am beginning to get like that - I check *at least* twice a day and have been doing the refreshing thing as well - though about once every half hour or so

We got approved last night, just found out today. Such a good feeling.

I can't wait to read more good news from other members of this forum. I keep my fingers crossed for everyone.

Yay!!! See, you didn't have to panic!

We also were approved yesterday!!! Got the email in my inbox this morning!!!

Can't wait to see the updates and how I compare to the average days from Rec to NOA2!!

Know how you feel with the aches - I am not a very physically active person (too lazy ) so if I do anything I feel like I have just been put through a meat grinder!!! Hoping to decorate tomorrow - am also getting a Christmas card from one of my friends I made on facebook! Woo!! Need to post his as well
