Good morning.

Looks like we talked waaay to much :P so we have a new home again :hehe: .

I hope everyone gets some relief from the heat soon. We had a little break yesterday and it looks like the next few days will be a little better.

The gas prices here are getting too outrageous :angry: . I moved closer to the workplace but in the back of my mind I'm considering looking for a job closer to home.

Rhonda-working 7 days a week in just too much. Do your supervisors work 7 days a week too? Are you working more than 8 hours a day?

2 questions today:

1. I rec the first NOA and at the bottom is says California service center, I sent it to Nebraska, I'm guessing this means I've been transferred to CA ?

2. I reg my receipt number on the uscis website but how can you tell if you've been "touched" ???

It's gonna be hot hot hot here all weekend BUT I'm going to the Northwest Reggae Festival.. woo hooo.. 3 days of great music! The only down side is camping in a tent... i'm not really a camping in the woods type of person but since it's gonna be so hot it will probably be nice to sleep outside! :thumbs:

Hope everyone has a great day.

Hi Mangogirl,

1. Unsure of that response srry :no:

2. when you log on the 'date updated' if it has changed that means you have been touched.

good luck @ the festival this weekend.

Good Morning (L)

Hi Anna :luv: Nice to see you are doing well. How is the weight loss going?

Well wish me luck y'all...today is my meeting with my boss in which I will be giving my 2 weeks notice. I have been trying to have this meeting for the last week and a half but I have been nervous and all that jazz...but today is the day...I have to do it. Once this is over with it will be a big weight off my chest and shoulders and my mind.

Jamie :star:

Wow we chat a lot...we are on part 3 already :lol:

Mango Mindy...what 3 letters does your reciept number start with? That will determine what service center it is at. Also what is the JA scene like around Portland? Anything exciting? And not to be nosey or anything but what is your connection to JA? How did you meet your fiance?
