Hi Moon1968. Hope your day is going well since last post. Try not to think about the situation too much. That's what I'm doing. Do you go to a church anywhere? Any close friends you can hang out with? Reading God's word is helpful as well. Well, my suggestion is to read the book of Psalms chapter 37. Rest assured you will come out rejoicing after your done. Just keep reading a few verses or chapters a day until the interview comes, that way you will be empowered and ready! I am sure the interview will go well. I believe that all the jitters will go away once the interview is done. Keep praying too. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers as well.

Thank you for your ideas and yes him and I are religous people.....I do enjoy reading the Bible and it does help.....Im not sure what it is.....I ask myself is it the interview that Iam so concerned about or is it that I know he is going to be here that soon????? Have not seen him in a year and a half now......I have so many thoughts running through my mind.....He just now arrived in Lagos today at about 10pm his time after a long bus trip. Got a call from him and he is setteled in for the night wating for me to call him later......He will be going to the Doctos tomorrow to get his medical results and finish up with that......then he is going to take some time to just try and relax before the interview.......Knowing that he is there in Lagos now gives me a little breathing room...Seems I am a little more relaxed but still at times I want to cry.....I cant wait to be with him again and in his arms where I belong.......Im concentrating on What im going to wear, gettng my nails done, my hair done, and just how im going to pick him up from the air port.....thought one good way would be to rent a Limo......what do you think????? Will have about 7 to 9 family members there to greet him and wanted all of us to travel home together all in the same car......Tell me what you think???? Ohhhh yes with bottles of sparkling Apple Cider with toasting glasses...........

Haha! Girl, you made me laugh, sparkling Apple Cider and toasting glasses. That's nice. I may just get my fiance and I some Sparkling Grape juice with some plastic cups! WOW! Rent a limo? You are really truly going all out for your love. If I did that for my fiance, he'd probably be embarrased that I got him a limo to pick him up in just to be dropped off at an apartment building where he will be staying at. That's great lady. Go ahead and do what seems best for your love. I am not trying to thwart you in anyway. Go head get your hair and nails done though. I know I am not going to be greeting my guy with beedy bee and head scarf and old shabby clothes. I am going to look nice for him.

That's great that he is in Lagos and readying himself for the interview. At least that gives you some comfort. I know that we are all still human and we are going to have that emotional spell once in a while, but keep trusting God. My fiance will be doing the same thing, jumping on the bus and getting the rest of his medicals done in Lagos before the interview. He feel that it would make more since to get the rest of the things done a few days before his interview so that he will not have to go back and forth. Does your fiance live in Port Harcourt?

I think it is the interview and him being here that has given us all the heebee jeebees. Yep, and the different thoughts are running through my mind as well. I am thinking, ok, when I pick him up, I am going to get my car washed inside and out with a little bit of "new car smell" air freshener. Although, it wouldn't make since seeing that it would be snowing in the winter time and my vehicle would be covered in sludge in snow anyway. I have to buy him a coat because he said that he want to be here in December before Christmas. My closet is so small, so I'd probably have to buy a cedar chest for him to put his clothes in once he move in after we get married or I'd just thin out my closet. I got more shoes than clothes in that place. Yes, yes the count down is near.

Do what you gotta do girl. You go!

My Husband is in Port harcourt so he has to travel as well back and forth.....It was a 10 bus trip. I had taken the same bus trip when I was there) not fun) LOL LOL ....they did not arrive on time due to a major trafic jam so he did not get to Lagos until about 10 pm his time......Now he is still at the doctors office still finishing up with his exam.....which is 3:30pm Lagos time and still waiting......It is crazy all the waiting they have to do......I guess that is why my Husband is so patient with me..
