OHH God help all of us to get NOAs fast PLEAS
I hope all jan will get NOA2 to the end of the MAY.
It would be a GREAT present to my birthday this 27 may

For this weekend:

Webcam with Bryan tomorrow.
And unless I'm too lazy, there's a CD I'd like to buy and I also need to take care of my computer problem (wireless connection doesn't work anymore; I'll have to buy a new wireless card...)

Nothing else so far.

I'm going to make this a gardening weekend - if it's not too rainy. It's supposed to be a warm weekend so I'd rather spend it with my hands in the dirt getting the flower beds planted. Otherwise, I'll be watching to see how the CSC filers are progressing.




I think that would be a great present!

By the way, we've sent our petition exactly 120 days ago. It's good they're working again!!

What type of flowers will you plant Blake?

Ooh - gardening! Our living room is currently more like a greenhouse as my housemate's tomato plants have been growing at a phenomenal rate, and we have chillis growing in every room. I hope it's good weather for you! Nothing like fresh soil on your hands.

I might pop into the city centre to buy a couple of things, too...but like you, Cecile, depends on how lazy I feel.

THIS IS THE ONLY PRESENT I WANT TO MY 23 BIRTHDAY
Especially when i realize that he will not hold me and kiss me this day

Tonight I have a friend's graduation and then another friend's birthday party, she throws the mother of all costume parties for her birthday every year...it's Midsummer Night's Dream themed this year and I still need to finish my costume. Tomorrow I'm going to have my two youngest brothers over for awhile and we'll probably go swimming and maybe to the library. Sunday will be church and then an extra choir rehearsal (the bishop is going to be at our parish for Pentecost, so we're preparing super extra stuff). Anytime I'm not doing that stuff I'll be webcamming with Dennis.

I will let you know when I go buy them tomorrow. I love zinias and posey's and other bright annuals. I've got a fern garden (virtually no maintanence required) as well as climbing rose bushes. I love plants in the home too - living things that soften all the hard edges in a home. I used to have very large garden beds that I built when I lived in Colorado, but I try to keep my planting urges more under control these days. Thank goodness Olga loves flowers and gardening too.

It must be great to have a garden!
We will probably put plants in the apartment. it's best if they don't require too much maintenance though... but plants tend to die when I'm around :S

That's how I am, too. I planted a bunch of bulbs a few months ago...we'll see how they fair through the summer.

OMG! ive never been this excited checking the forum for the CSC til i saw lots and stl adding up December filers who got NOA2..and there was even a December 31st NOA1 receiver who got their NOA2 on May 1st! at exactly 4months! whoa!

so does this means...theyre working on January filers now? since they already approved a couple who got NOA1 on December 31st


next thing im so exited about is my gown!!!!!!!! i already went to a gown maker and started planning with them my demetrio's bride inspired gown and gowns for my ladies..wat do you think folks?

Lord! by ur will, sent us the NOA2 this may

Nice very nice

tnx! NOA2 pls..

hope to hear MORE NOA2 reports!

wow!

hehehe

it was good week, hope next will be MORE FASTER FOR ALL CSC

I love that dress, shes! Very glamorous.

aravis - a costume party sounds like great fun! Which character are you going as?

She's not actually going for the play itself (don't ask...really the party is an excuse for drunkenness and debauchery). I'm going as a flower because I just couldn't bring myself to do what everyone else will inevitably do (I'm expecting an overabundance of fairy wings). I was originally thinking a wood nymph, but I didn't have time to do the costume the way I wanted to.

Tonight just got take away and then heading up to daughters school carnival for prob just an hour or so...then I plan to kick back with beer and scrapbook haha!

Tomorrow swimming with daughter than a new co-workers daughters 1st birthday bbq

Sunday no idea prob just chatting with my man

Hope to see lots more people update with approvals this weekend as well!!!!!!!!

Love the dress...I'll be beginning my search for the perfect dress soon...we're not having the celebratory ceremony for a while, so I'll have some time to lose this last pesky 50 pounds or so!!!

oh yeah! our body size matters for the gowns ladies..but anyway,the Brides are ALWAYS beautiful in their weddings!

and all the ladies will say???...

Did you see??? there's the first January approval!!!!!!! (other than expedite) J & Paulie (smiley84) sent their petition the 4th of January and were approved yesterday!

Oh yes, I saw that one just now!!!! That is definitely not an expedite, just normal processing!!! Which means: BLAKE WOULD BE BUSY IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS!!!

Hurrah! Congratulations smiley84!

CSC IS WORKING NOW ON JANUARY FILERS......HANG ON YOUR NEXT GOD BLESS.....GO CSC...push push

Yes, now I'm going to start checking the USCIS website excessively. I've already checked it 3 times since I woke up this morning

Actually, 4 times now...
stop it! that's the weekend they're not working!

I don't know if it was just me but when i was obssessively checking USCIS site, it didn't came.. but when I decided to stop checking they sent me the email... i think it was true with some also.

It will be depressing to constantly check USCIS site and that status update doesnt change.. it will eventually wear you out faster... this is the time to actually find ways to be more busy.

I wish all of you would all get it soon.. NO STRANGLERS!!!

Then maybe I'm going to check it obsessively until tonight and then stop, that way it will come jk

Seriously, I think I've checked that many times this morning only because this is the first day with a January filers. I doubt I'll continue to do so after. And I never check USCIS when I'm at work, so that's not too bad

Ok now I'm leaving and going to try to stay busy.

(I don't know if it was just me but when i was obssessively checking USCIS site, it didn't came.. but when I decided to stop checking they sent me the email... i think it was true with some also. )
)
""same here i usually check 2 -3 times a day.....but i decided not to check uscis site even my email...coz im stress out everyday.....i got an email from cris.....maybe its true.....

HOORAY

Congrats to Smiley84!!!

Uhhhh, I don't want to contribute to anyone's obsessive behavior, but they've been known to send out updates over the weekends, and even work on the weekends as well. So..... Mrs. 88, I hope you're starting to get excited!

You've got that right!!

MAn oh man cannnot waittttt! I am getting so excited seeing those stats numbers go up on Igors list! I mean 19 now for last week woop woop! Let's get back into the 20's and higher CSC! There are 3 or 4 of us that filed on same date so will be interesting to see what order they come in!

87 now!
I won't check until tonight when I talk with Bryan, and then tomorrow morning, and then tomorrow night. (and maybe tomorrow at noon if I can't control myself!)

Just remember to keep breathing - that's all we ask

THAT"S just great THNX GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


We just want make our wedding maybe in october and i curious will i be in time ?

I know I want a September wedding badly and not to mention want the chance that maybe just maybe Gareth will be here with me in July! I know August is more realistic but gosh to have him here for some of July too would be heaven!!!!

Come on CSC! I am soooo excited they are actually working LOL!

I have yet to receive a touch but maybe in another week or two......

Well it should be OK as long as there is not any extra long processing... I don't mean to scare you but even though they start approvals now no-one can know if there will be one or two remaining cases that won't be approved until August or something.


Ok. I'm going for a walk anyway, to enjoy the sunny weather

Help us God i'm beging You



I want my wedding in october God help us!!!

Woot woot keep em comin CSC! And VJ'ers keep on posting those updated timelines too!

Alex and I have decided that we'll have to hold our wedding next year no matter what as we just won't have the funds beforehand to pay for my flight + shipping.

On the plus side I should easily be able to have my driver's license by then. My first driving lesson is tomorrow!

So I'm really, really hoping that if any January filer's petition is delayed it's mine, because I can at least handle it.

15 approvals in 2 days is amazing! Go CSC!

There's need for an excuse? A flower is a fantastic idea - you're right; I'd expect a lot of fairies, too. I hope it's good fun!


You know, I've always wondered exactly what it is that scrapbookers do.

I love swimming. It's silly...I have a gym membership and access to the pool whenever I like but I haven't been swimming in months! I should really go sometime this week. It always seems that dinner with friends or overtime at work crops up just when I've planned to go swimming.


I'm still not convinced of this. I am so not looking forward to our wedding!

Rachel you are almost out of the 100's on Igors List!!!!

As for us scrapbookers we all got our own styles etc haha....basically it is making your photos into art and sharing them in a more interesting and personalized way then just in a photo book. That is how I look at it anyway I have been on a horrible hiatus though since this whole visa process has seemed to zap all my energy and creative juices out of me!

Thank you for the explanation! It sounds like fun; I love being creative.

I am indeed nearly out of the 100s! Wow! And Igor's list says:

Last 25 (all from the beginning of the week) K1 I-129F NOA2s from CSC:

I've never seen that before.

I know I am too way excited!!!!! Ok off to swim then shower then head out to the store with my daughter to keep my mind off this excitement a little bit haha! Gosh I pray I am NOT one of the January ones left behind!!!

I'm 137 now

There are 2 other January filers who were approved!

congratulations to Yuehan, and Steven Shirley!
