I bought bunches of stuff last summer but then Jeremy had to leave suddenly so I didn't really have the heart to get with the wine making...

Well as you are a pro you can help me make wonderful Californian Zinfandel from grapes grown in my own garden! Organic wine!!

It's ok - we'll make it before we decorate - besides - if we choose a nice coloured fruit then maybe it will save us the job of decorating :D

The Very Secret Diary of Legolas Son of Weenus - by Cassandra Claire

Day One: Went to Council of Elrond. Was prettiest person there. Agreed to follow some tiny little man to Mordor to throw ring into volcano. Very important mission - gold ring so tacky.

Day Six: Far too dark in Mines of Moria to brush hair properly. Am very afraid I am developing a tangle.

Orcs so silly.

Still the prettiest.

Day 35: Boromir dead. Very messy death, most unnecessary. Did get kissed by Aragorn as he expired. Does a guy have to get shot full of arrows around here to get any action? Boromir definitely not prettier than me. Cannot understand it. Am feeling a pout coming on.

Frodo off to Mordor with Sam. Tiny little men caring about each other, rather cute really.

Am quite sure Gimli fancies me. So unfair. He is waist height, so can see advantages there, but chunky braids and big helmet most off-putting. Foresee dark times ahead, very dark times.

My guess for this week hmmmm lets see

I think I will stick with 30 CSC for the week, as per usual (and 65 between all centres)...

they seem to be pumping them out quite well now LETS keep our fingers crossed that they keep it up (and here's double fingers crossed for all the June and July filers) who are still waiting to receive theirs this week... Then ROLL ON August and September <grin>

have a GREAT day

Tracy

26/9/2007 Steve posted I129F & check to CSC

(getting ahead of myself I know <grin> but want to get everything ready

.....

29/1/2008 - WOW the estimated date on my timeline NOW says 7th April.... COME ON FOLKS.. PLEASE UPDATE YOUR TIMELINES IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE SO... your updates help give number crunchers like myself something to gauge. 4th feb - all these approvals MUST be doing something, my timeline NOW says 2nd April...

5/2/08 - YAY YAY YAY.... NOA-2 approval via email from CRIS... WHOO HOOOOOOOOOOO.... the "estimated timeline said 31 March this morning just as an FYI for you all)

Ahh, I see it now. But I guess I was thinking for some reason it was sent 7-31. If NOA1 was 8-1, it still wouldn't technically be an august petition.

no, it's there all right - Alla & Jeffery, CSC :)

Just like last week (and maybe the week before) by tuesday afternoon, we have 1 approval and that was for a June RFE. This is the week the rest of us mid July filers get approved! put me down for 27...unless i'm too late! ;)

Edited by DKM

Visa took too long, grew apart and withdrew visa after six months.
