Hi Alex ... I'm doing fine girl. I bought our rings, and that made me happy but weary at the same time. But everything is just fine now.

Subject for the week? I'm not so inspired right now, but I'll give it a thought ... star_smile.gif

Hello there nice to see you here!
Sounds romantic, will you have your family present?
Would love to see how your weeding dress looks like!!
Don’t have my lingerie yet, dint thought about it… thank you! Have so much on my mind!!!

Any plans for the weekend???/
Have to say that my weekends are pretty boring these days blush.gif !!
Well maybe I'll make some pics with me in the dress ... lol But Greg can't see it yet ...
Maybe my aunt will come over and I'm silently hoping for my bro to come too. And my best friends Dirk and Vanessa are going to be there for sure. Plus Greg's family and friends are totally sweet ... star_smile.gif
Do you go with the tradition: something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue?

My weekends aren't that eventful either Alex ... but tomorrow I'll be over-excited getting the rings. I'm going to keep myself busy (grocerieshopping, fitness, buy a warm coat ...) till I'm going to the store. yes.gif
And then I can show em off to G when we're skyping ...

Goodnight VJ ... time for me to catch some zzzzzzzzz's!

Our marriage will be very simple, probably in our backyard (in Jamesville, NY) and catering by Dinosaur BBQ lol.
My dress cost about 50 euro's, it's a white dress with a black see-through fabric over it, looks Spanish. I went totally overboard with the lingerie though blush.gif costed waaaay more than the dress. wacko.gif
Aaand I'm going to get our weddingrings tomorrow ... they're ready!

I've also finally received the package Greg sent me (he sent it 3 weeks ago) with our evidence and stuff ... so all is well in the world again! The copymachine at work is totally worn out (I'm bad, I know ohmy.gif ) ...

How is everybody doing today? It's almost end of Thursday by my time and still only one approval sad.gif. And Igor's has been weird too, looks like we are getting more and more timelines added daily, cause instead of going up with approvals we are going down.
Thank you Ana ... it's very weird not to be able to celebrate together ... But we did fairly well, we've been skyping for a couple of hours and talking about next birthdays yes.gif

I'm doing ok today, but the postal service is driving me nuts. Greg sent me a package with all of our stuff last week, and I still haven't got it ... It was a big pack so maybe it just takes longer than an ordinary postcard.
Hope your day is fine! smile.gif

I was there last year on his birthday ... we went to Alexandria Bay then, nice place and had a real nice clam chowder. There'll be plenty of birthdays to celebrate together ... hmmmm, maybe Nov 4th? On mine? lol

Hi May-filers, hope you guys are doing good this evening, or whatever time of the day it is where you're at ...

Ana ... I know the feeling. I'm already bumming myself. It's Greg's birthday next week. I had plans to visit him, but let it go because of not knowing how this freaking process would develop. So he'll have to be satified with a cake on a postcard instead of me making one for him ... tongue_ss.gif sad.gif

Gordon ... I hear you. Would you mind if I come roll in the poo with you if we get there before Turkey Day?
I don't even want to get started on the hopes I had of when to get home to Greg. Urgh.

Alex ... I'm doing fine. Though Greg's band is playing a gig tonight, so I'm here ... skypeless lol. Btw glad to hear about the little one!! smile.gif

I just noticed we're 63 on Igor's list. But that doesn't mean anything ...

Gordon, glad to hear that!

Greg was away last night, they had a clambake dealie at work, so I was keeping myself occupied since we only briefly talked on Skype ... Yes it is therapeutic in a way, Ana lol.

I had my blood tested recently, and got that (can't remember the exact name) flu-shot, tetanus and the first of two hepatitis shots ... I don't need gardasil, since I'm 32. My doc told me I could get it too, but I think I had enough shots for a while. That tetanus-renewal did hurt for 5 days ...
Besides that I've collected the certificates, photographs and all of the other stuff. I also had my diploma's translated. I'm not so happy with the translations, but it was done by an honoured translator, so I guess it's alright.
This weekend I'm going to go through stuff-to-take-with-me and make an estimation of the volume, and have a price made to ship it. I am still going to workout 2-3 times a week, just to keep myself busy.

I'm wicked tired btw ... think I need to catch some early zzzzzzzz's tonight! wink.gif

Thank you very much! Looks like we still have a couple of people ahead of us wacko.gif
I try to stay as zen as possible, and I must say it goes surprisingly well this time. Times before, when we actually had a date to look forward to when we were going to see eachother again, it seemed much harder being apart. Now we know that at the end of this journey we'll be together and we don't have to go through hello's and goodbye's anymore ... That's what makes me smile star_smile.gif But of course there are some days when it's harder and a couple of tears are being shed. Just keep hanging in there VJ-ers, look forward ...

Hi,

We both made some mistakes with the I-130. (found this site after sending I-130)

My wife, the petitioner didn't send evidence of a bonifide marriage.
Me, the beneficiary didn' fill in the G-325a correctly and I didn't sign the form.

USCIS accepted the packet cause we got a form I-797C (NOA).
Is the best bet just to wait when the USCIS send a RFE to correct those mistakes?

Kind regards,
