Probably a lame post since I don't know names but has anyone heard back from that woman who was going to Egypt to get married? I remember her fiance's name was Usama but I forget her username. I'm just curious if they did actually get married given the new ruling on not accepting the statement from the us embassy.

Are you talking about Bint Helewa Doodle?

And where are all the Algerian people at? I know you are all out there. I see Egyptian and Marocain visa posts daily. Where is the DZ help at? No one petitioning now after all these approvals?

Im here too! Representing the DZ section that is !!! kicking.gif Oh how I wish i was going back to visit too but at the moment, I am grounded ! Next year inchallah.

Im starting to get excited though -anxiously waiting for the news that my husband's passport and visa will be returned to him -they should have just arrived at the embassy in Paris for processing; but of course its waiting for the embassy to return it back is the trick! When it does i can book him on that new ALGIERS/MONTREAL one way flight -then he will probably spend a couple days there as he has relatives in Montreal; and finally its on to the west! But he has suddenly gotten this great adventure into his head -taking the Greyhound bus to Alberta where I am -i told him -but thats gonna take almost 3 days to get here by that route!!! Its about 102 bus stops along the way -in all these little towns besides the big cities!!!! 3 DAYS FOR HIM TO MISS HIS BUS IF HE GETS OFF FOR A SMOKE OR SOMETHING TO EAT -I know i have to stop thinking of him as an innocent little baby but despite that he is very wise, I'll be worried the whole time till he gets here; if this is what he really wants to do! lol! smile.gif

I had a great time lastnight, this being our first 4th together. we went to the races and then watched the fireworks. We celebrated all the freedom that we have now and he enjoyed how everyone comes together and the emotions he felt we the patriotic songs where playing and the feeling being felt. Then we came home and watched the Boston Show on tv he was in awe.

My poor dog has a really hard time with the 4th, I have to give her traquilizers and she still is a wreck. All the booms have her heart racing 1000 miles an hour. She is still freaking out for every sound right now, he!! she doesn't even want to go outside.

We are still awaiting the SS card to arrive and since it only makes the 2 week since he enterd the USA we are doing well. trying to make him realize this is not easy as he feels he needs to be working now. I am trying to get him to enjoy this time off since he will work for a very long time without time off, but well it is not working.

I'm bored.

All the threads kinda require thinkin' and readin' today and I just don't have it in me. blush.gif

Me too. It seems like half of the office took the week off and the other half is out on maternity leave.

Last night we walked to the esplanade in Boston for the fireworks - I haven't done that since I was a kid so it was a lot of fun and the fireworks were AMAZING!! Sooooo cool.

Sooooo instead of doing what little work I have, I'm planning our summer vacation - we've decided to go to Mexico. I've found a fantastic deal at a resort in Playa del Carmen, so hopefully we'll book the tickets tonight. I've been there a bunch of times with my family so I know it'll be a good time. Can't wait to get some sun, I was stuck in the office the whole month of June!

Yea I'm super excited. And my husband has been working days AND nights since he got here, so it'll be nice to spend more than an hour with each other.

When I was little I always wanted to be the conducter and whenever we used to go to the Pops or symphony hall i used to pretend to conduct the music.. in fact, i think i might have done a little conducting last night too blush.gif

Tonight I'm going out for the first time in a LONGGGGGGG time to get sushi with some friends... can't wait!

This last hour of work has been dragginggggggggggggg....... 39 minutes!

it definitly doesnt feel like thursday, maybe more like a monday....i havent had a day off in weeks and am looking forward to sunday...the 4th was fun, we went to a carnival down the street, rode some rides, and watched the fireworks....i have to work 12-8 tomorrow and knowing that its payday doesnt make it any better, maybe if i got to spend one dollar on myself rather than bills, i might be more enthused, oh well, thats life right....Happy weekend to everyone
