I normally sent them FedEx but I get 75% off b/c my brother-in-law works at FedEx Kinko's. I'm not sure how much they normally cost but the packages usually get their within a week.

My sister changed her name but she still has her state ID in her maiden name for personal reasons.

CONGRATULATIONS EBONY!! I knew you guys would be alright!! Now you can share the adventures of married life with the rest of us folk!!! Did you guys decide on when he was coming over? Have you set a date for the wedding?

Don't feel bad I'm the same way. As a woman you would think I love shopping but it's the total opposite. I could care less. My daughter on the other hand is something else. I try to shop for her but most of the names she's calling out I have NO IDEA!!!

Jamie that is such great news!!!! i am wishing for the best for you!!! you so deserve the job and great things!!!

Testing...

Success?!?

Congrats Shauna

Hey I know there are some of you gals that watch ANTM...tonights the big night!

Any guesses/predictions?

I think it will come down to Natasha and Renee. Natasha will probably win.

I like Jaslene but not that much, she seems so much like other models out there. Natasha bothers me a bit but she is a good model. She always cracks me up with her out there comments. Renee does a good job but with her being married and a mom...hmmm...not sure if that is a good mix to be ANTM. I would like Renee to win but don't really think it will happen.

What do you think?

I've seen lots a few people here experienced problems in their relationships and I admire the stength shown by some of these women.

I found out lately that my fiance has lied to me on more than one occasion, once about a very important issue. I think I'm close to approval or at least an RFE because my file was touched for the first time in over 4 weeks.

I'm just not certain anymore that I want to go through with this. She admitted her lies and I still love her a lot, and that is the only thing that keeps me holding on right now.

I could take the easy way out and forgive her, but I just don't know. I have a big dilema. I have to footing all the financial bills in this relationship and I know it's going to be hard on her if I stop the process, but the lies are bothering me to such and extent that I don't think I can go on with her,

I have made a few friends and family members aware of this and I'm sure I would be laughed at if I should continue and bring here but I love here so much I'm tempted to forgive her. Your input will be greatly appreciated.

Wayne

So guess what. I've finally decided to let CSC be....wasn't looking for an approval until next month. Well as I was lurking around in the K1 forum I've noticed ppl were calling USCIS to check status (only if a touch was done). So I said what the heck...cld them up followed the prompts to RFE line and voila they confirmed my petition was approved on 5/11 and will recv a notice w/in 30 days. After my last "false info" I asked "are you sure" and he was like "yes ma'am". I asked again and the rep stated laughing. He then said you filed for your husband Javon and I said yea. I was speechless so he asked if I was still there and I said yea just in shock!!!

WOOHOO!!! CONGRATS!!!

Wayne we will never laugh at you. I know how it feels to love someone and it's not something that can be turned off just like that. If you feel you can't go on without her then do just that. Try to forgive her and pray for the best.





Thanks Jamie. I'm still in shock but still have a doubt in mind, I guess I will feel better once I recv the hard copy in the mail. I'm not going to tell Javon until then but it will be hard talking to him tonight.

CONGRATS!!!

Way to go!!!!

Ditto. Great advice!!








Ditto

Sorry don't know..I don't uaually watch, but will tonight.

EAD IN THE MAIL TODAY

Congrats!!

You could always get a bicycle and use that to get around - no you probably don't want to do that 6 months pregnant What about taxi service in the area? Not for everyday, but once in a while when you're feeling extremely restless and need to get out it might work. Or you're just gonna have extra incentive to learn how to drive soon! I love amenities so I would choose the one with the pool and all that.

Are you sure he's Jamaican???


It sounds great! Good luck

Good luck Jamie

I feel 'ya. Hubby and daughter can shop all day long Not me. They always go shopping without me.



Congrats

I don't watch that. I've been watching Dancing w/ the Stars this season I love it! And of course, Greys' Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, and my new favorite - Notes From the Underbelly

Congratz!!!

A lot of good news today!!!!

i love grey's anatomy!!!! tomorow is the season finale!!! it looks really good!!!
i can't wait for the spin off that looks like a good show as well...

Sorry to hear that Wayne. I had an issue w/ my hubby lying to me on a couple occasions - one of the times it was a HUGE thing that he lied about. I ended up forgiving him, but it does make it very hard to trust him sometimes. (We were already married when I found out the big lie) Whatever you do, do not worry about what everyone else thinks. This is YOUR life, your future, and your love - you have to do what makes YOU happy You still have time to think about it - even after your approval, it still has to go to NVC, then the embassy, then wait for an interview date. Hang in there.

I know and I'll be at work I have to Tivo it - thank goodness for technology!


Congrats I hope it's the real deal this time!!

Rhonda...how are you feeling these days?

I sure hope so too!!

Congrats Anna!!!

All the best with the rest of the testing JAMIE!!! Congrats on a great job well done so far way to go!!!

I know we talked about this before but what is the cheapest place to rent a car in MoBay? Dwain needs to move his belongings to his mothers house. He has many items he will not be bring up to the states. He told me the cheapest he could find is 150 dollars a day and he has to rent the car for at least 2 days. Is there any better options out there?

Thanks
Jax

HELLO ALL

I AM ABOUT TO START MY JOURNEY AND INFO OR ADVICE U CAN OFFER I THANK U VERY MUCH

Sorry to hear
The thing about relationships, they aren't about what OTHER people will think. The question you have to ask yourself is, 'Can I deal with it?'
I often find that when someone lies to me, the best thing to do is try to understand why they lied. That for me is more important than the lie itself.
Only YOU know whether you can deal with her behaviour, try not to care what others may think, they see the bad times, but they aren't there for the good times....
I know it's tempting to be able to vent to close friends and relatives, but it's something I try not to do for just the reasons you've mentioned - this board would be FAR better to vent on because no-one here knows you, whereas your friends/family most likely remember what you've told them and possibly keep bringing it up.
I wish you all the best in finding the decision best you you, but remember YOU are the best person to make the right one for you...


That is WONDERFUL news!!!!

I can imagine how you must be too scared to celebrate after the last false alarm, but this has been a LONG time coming!!!
Wait until you have that hard copy in your hand and then go wild!!!


Congrats!!!!!

Can't even imagine when I'll be able to type that!!

You know, I never even considered a bicycle!! I love cycling, but American roads scare me, they are MUCH bigger than English or Jamaican ones, I'm even slightly apprehensive about CROSSING them!!
I'm not too worried about before I have the baby, I will probably just waddle around the house lapsing into my impression of a beached whale every so often.
It's more when I think about getting a job or when I'm home with the baby and my fiance has gone to work and my son to school....
Definitely would get a taxi for the odd time, and his mom said she'd be more than happy to take me whenever I wanted to go...
The pool is a HUGE plus!
I know of no apartment complexes here in London that have one...My son taught himself to swim in Dec, so he'll think he died and went to heaven lol...

Wow, good news all around lately!! Congrats to everyone!!

Welcome MSNELLY! What kind of visa are you thinking about?

Anna I'm so happy for you!!

Jamie-best wishes . Here in CT- once you pass the C. S. test-they keep it on file for a year. That opens the door to so many possibilies. And the benefits...



Good morning.

Welcome MSNELLY!! What visa are you applying for? How did you meet your SO? ALl the best

Hello MSNELLY, welcome to the Yardie Thread

Welcome MSNELLY! What kind of visa are you thinking about?
[/quote]


thanks for the welcome i will be getting fiance visa

I had to LOL at the "Are you sure he's Jamaican???" comment. I was thinking the exact same thing.

Msnelly

that is cool...do you have any questions....about where to begin ect....

i have a question for you...tell us a little bit about yourself!

Welcome Ms Nelly! I see your in Chicago what part? I live in Evanston.

I laughed at it too,

trust me I soo hope his attitude changes a little bit, he isn't interested in brand name, because he has better uses for his money according to him, which is good, he doesn't even try to match, its always a pair of jeans with a shirt

NYSNESS (sp) - I am too Happy for you! I wish u could have seen the big smile on my face when I read about your approval

Testing...(again)

Didn't work...I was trying to add a countdown to my signature...

Ok, I just wanted to add a ticker...carry on

You finally got it to work huh...

So I've schedule an infopass appointment (based on the recommendation from the USCIS customer service line) to determine why it is taking so long for NVC to receive my approval. Someone let me know..if I'm being a little too anxious. It's been over two weeks and based on others timelines the NVC received their case within 2-5 days. I'm really hoping they send it soon as I would like to at least get a late July/ early August interview date.

I HAVE A LOT OF QUESTION BUT FIRST I AM 34 LIVE IN THE NORTHWEST SUBURB OF PALATINE AND MY SWEETIE LIVE IN JAMAICA BUT ASK ME ANTHING OK
