Monday..........

That's what my husband did (got small side jobs) once we got later in the visa game. He was working so far from home that the distance interfered with the visa process (sending paperwork, interview, etc.). Once it got to be packet 3 time he moved back home and started getting odd jobs fixing computers in either ppl's homes or in the various net cafes in his city.

i think its better he doesn't work, but see if he can find small side jobs to keep himself busy. he's getting more and more depressed about not having the visa yet and not being able to be productive.

yallahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh DoS! finish our AP pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee!

Option 1 - Chana Masala (spicy chickpeas) with paratha (flat bread) and kheer mohan(dessert)

option 2 - Cheese sub - lettuce, tomato and pickles w/ chips

Option 3 - Panera Mediterranian sandwich (pesto hummus, lettuce, cucumbers, Pepperdew peppers, etc) with lemonade and cookie

I definitely think small jobs on the side would be better. That way he can keep the ca$h flow coming in and if he gets to leave in two weeks...he'll be good to go.

I KNOW!!!! When I traveled to Morocco with our son this past November it took a total of 36 hours to get there (we had a wicked layover in Frankfurt-13 hours I think) so I ended up getting a hotel room next to the airport so my son and I could sleep and freshen up. But always coming back it only takes like 12-15 hours. What's up with that????

When a woman is on the birth control pill they don't ovulate, right?

So if a woman does not ovulate, why would she get pms and become hugely bloated...........like a hugely humungous water baloon?

And when would that go away exactly if she doesn't plan on taking those sugar pills in the pack?

correct, she does not ovulate.

The pill puts your ovaries "to sleep" in a dormant state. It then provides a secondary safety mechanism by thickening the uterine lining in the event that an egg has been released and fertilised, the egg will not stand a chance of implantation.

and in agreement

The hormones in the pill work by preventing ovulation. If a woman doesn't ovulate, she can't get pregnant.

as for the pms and bloating, i'd guess so you can share the fun with those around you

Even on the pill you have a menstrual cycle so that's the reason for the PMS and all the fun stuff that goes along with it. I'm on the pill but I don't get hugely bloated or anything. Sometimes I take my "sugar" pills in the pack and sometimes I don't.
