Sun is shining here in cow-town....yee haw!! :
But it's crisp, time to put the flip flops away and bring out the Uggs!
My daughter has been dating a fella from St.Lucia he's a plumber and she just told me they are planning a trip to St.Lucia to meet his mother! dating for 5 months and going on a vacation ??? isnt that a little too soon???

 

[Mrslwsn]

me personally Suki yes I would feel thats too soon, but then again it is from my own personal experience anything too rushed doesnt last but then again there are exceptions to every rule!

 

[CharlieD10]

LOL, suki. I love Uggs. Can't wait to own a pair. Seen a few young ladies in Jamaica in them and had to wonder if they were expecting a sudden dip in the temperatures any time soon, but yeah, I still like them even if people are wearing them in entirely inappropriate countries!

Hmm, I dunno, some people know within a few months they are ready to go home and meet the parents. LOL. Maybe she's just going on vacation to go on vacation, and somewhere in there she'll meet his mother, not as a prospective member of the family, but just as someone he's interested in right now. Only time will tell.

 

[Mrs Proper]

Mmmmm that's a hard one. How old is your daughter? If you are worried all you can do is voice your opinion on the matter. I can't say its fast or not cuz mine and mr propers relationship was very fast! And we've been together 6 yrs now. So the saying that things that go fast never last is false. If she is
grown then like I said jus tell her how you feel about it and hope she makes the right choice. Goodluck

Oh and my manners, good afternoon forum!! So today I had a scare. My friend called me this morning telling me there is a whole bunch of cops, swat cars and police on top of the school roof with guns and wlking around the school with guns. So I immediately freak out since my babies walk to school. I woke mr proper up, told him I'm going to the school to make sure the kids are ok. I get to the school and the whole place is on lock down. All the doors locked and dark inside the school. So I ask the teachers, secretary if my children made it ok and they said yes, phew!!! I was shaking so bad I felt like I was gonna get sick. Apparently a prisoner escaped and was seen around the school or some sort. Thankfully they got him and all is well. It was a pretty eventful morning lol

Come on KGN!!!! Where's those ppr?!?!?!?

 

[CharlieD10]

Wow, Mrs P! What a morning! All's well that ends well, huh? Phew.

I asked my husband for an opinion, suki, and he said (in his usual abrupt fashion), "Make sure everybody pays their own way". LOL. When I asked for an explanation he said you can learn a lot about a person when they are out of their usual environment, but in a case where you haven't been dating a "long" time, things will be easier to sort out if everyone maintains their independence. Own ticket, own room, own funds, etc etc, no co-mingling of assets. That way, if the vacation together isn't working out, you can pick up and leave without the other person being left in lurch.

good morning everyone!!!
we are all still a waiting away still wondering if doing redo meds before the letter to do so is a good idea or not?? will it help speed things up?? help just getting a little frustrated here been a year now and still nothing!!!!

 

[suki]

Oh My Mrs.P..terrifying I hope they nab him quick!

My daughter will be 21, yes I know she's an adult and has made very good choices, I still worry tho! I just met him myself, the last time I met a so called boyfriend it was the day after she had met him at a club, oh did I ever give her lecture about that one....she brought him to a family bbq, I was like these guys have to earn"meet the family" you don't just bring some stranger into our home!
so she waited almost 5 months to introduce me to this guy :...and sure enough lecture time again for both of them....I just told him..one thing you can never do to my daughter is to try and control her, I wont have it , she wont have it, so don't even try....otherwise the meeting was nice when I stopped lecturing.

Charlie Uggs in Jamaica, are you for real??? I think that might be overdoing it! I wore mine to work yesterday and it's chilly here...but I dam near melted my feet!

 

[CharlieD10]

Suki, I kid you not about the Uggs. And these young ladies were absolutely convinced they were at the height of fashion in them, because they strolled so confidently about in them.

Haha, I agree, "meet the family" is something that is earned. It has to be a meaningful relationship before you can come home and meet the people who shaped me into being who I am. And for me that goes for everyone, not just boyfriends!

 

[RandysGirl]

So hubby has the doctors appointment for next Thusday in Mandeville. They told him on the phone that he does not need an xray ugh.... Why do we have to feel like we have to do everything ourselvesv?? I know that the TB xray is part of the visa medical!!!!!!

 

[RandysGirl]

Just also wondering if anyone else has gone ahead and redone medicals after expiry WITHOUT waiting for redo forms??

 

[CharlieD10]

RG, the X-ray is a part of the medical. Why would the Immigration medical doctor's office advise your husband otherwise? Strange.

I do believe everyone going through KG who has done a re-do has waited on the forms.

 

[RandysGirl]

Well we have just decided we are not going to sit and wait for the redo stuff. Hopefully it will work out I'm tired of not getting any response and feel the need to be proactive about our application. I told hubby that the xrays are NOT optional, mabe they just misunderstood thinking he was asking if the xray are done at the office? I know when we went to MoBay the xray place was at a different location.....

 

[CharlieD10]

Speaking of being proactive, RG, have you thought about ordering your CAIPS/GCMS notes? I know you go through your MP to make queries, but the notes might give you a tangible idea of all the progress made so far on your application. Just a thought.

 

[RandysGirl]

Yrah, I guess its time to give in and order them....
