We just went on a Carnival cruise last month. Had a great time. It was a very down to earth atmosphere, food was ok, and very very relaxing having everything taken care of for you. Plus we got such a good deal and it was SO cheap!!!

Next cruise, we want to try another line, one a little more upscale - but we really did enjoy our carnival cruise!

Gorgeous house and lots of good news - congratulations!!!!

Well... we have a dwon payment saved up to buy a house in SC finally (I've been working in the states since January), but since we are moving to Boston in March, we will need to at least double or triple that amount saved just to come up with 10%. It sucks.

they forgot the shining.

Not so much foods that I miss, but foods that I bought and was all excited to eat, unti I opened them up and they were different and NOT what I was expecting -

Corn Pops - down here they taste like syrofoam packing peanuts

Lipton Chicken Noodle Soup

Oh yeah, and I miss All Dressed Ruffles, too, but I probably shouldn't be eating those anyways so it's a good thing!

Marilyn, my thoughts are with you and your husband and baby Noah

Have you tried J. Crew (www.jcrew.com) not cheap, but you can't skimp on a suit!!!! And they start at size 0.

sheesh. sorry.

mmmmm... pricey, but less than plane fare!!!

oooh... that site has all the PC stuff I miss too yummy!!!!

Well, she will still need to prove that she is capapble of meeting the povery guidlines to be your sponsor, or you will need a co-sponsor. Not sure what the income cut-off is for food stamps, but I would imagine she might have trouble meeting the poverty guidlines!

What's all the controversy for... if you're going to lakehead, the only thing that means is that no one else would take you

GO THUNDER BAY! Hahah, I have to show this to my baby, it'll give him something to be proud about Thunder Bay.

Wow You are proud of that???..

Proud if what??.. Great accomplishment??.. Wow bashing Bush, How new. Wow, How important. It looks pathetic IMO. No other way to describe it.

Patethic.

Some fifth tier school is bitter.

Fifth tier is being generous!

I work in Chatham county, does that count???

Lakehead is an extremely crappy "safe" school that you just put on your application list as insurance.

We celebrate our wedding anniversary, of course (July 19, 2005). But we also go out to eat every month on the 19th. We call it our month-a-versary. Cheesy, yes

I'm adopted, too. had no problem getting my long-form BC from Manitoba. Not sure if it makes a difference, but I was adopted at birth and my (adoptive) parents registered my birth with vital statistics after the adoption was finalized.

counting down the days until our cruise in september

We didn't have any copies of the medical since they were sealed and given to the immigration at the POE.

We wrote a letter stating what happened and Pamela didn't receive an RFE. I don't know whether this is acceptable, or we were just lucky, but Pamela was approved for her Perm Res last week.

Good Luck

This is standard procedure

You shouldn't have to do the whole medical again - do you have any record of her vaccinations at all?

If not and none can be gotten she might have to have the vaccinations again, then get the vac. supplement filled in by a civil surgeon, but not the whole medical.

On August 11, 2006, after approving your application, we ordered you a new card. Your card will be mailed to you as soon as it is ready.

mr warten are you talking about childern? do you any kid? no then read it carefuly i have two babies both are us citizen my fiance is living with me in japan instead of living in her own own country we are just a family thats all even after all these things we havae to go through these procidure than its unfair, inhummane and prehuidice.

Get married in Japan and DCF there. I don't beleive the non-USC has to be Japanese to do this, friends of mine DCF'd from Japan and she was from England!

I know how you feel!!! We had a touch in Nov. after biometrics then nothing until our interview two days ago (8 whole months without a peep, no touches, nothing!)! It sucked supremely - hang in there, they will get to you eventually! I know it doesn't feel like it though!

THanks, guys!

Good luck next week, onwa!!!
