Welllll... ;D ;D ;D

Apparently Kingston is paying attention to their emails. Based on the track record thus far between myself and RG....emailing them seems to get results. Emailed them about our passports yesterday...dwl...got an email in the wee hours of the morning stating our passports had already been resolved and sent back to us through DHL. Called DHL....they were surprised we called and said they had LITERALLY JUST recieved them from the embassy!! So hubby is driving down to Kingston to pick them up and if he can't make it today...DHL said their head office is open tommorow and they will hold it there for him to pick up. So if all goes as planned...we will have passports in hand tommorow. Thank the Lord!! What a burden liften...a serious relief!! :)

Afternoon all! SQ, told you it would work, there you go, get moving! :D

Suki, your husband likes country music?! Haha, I love it. So rare to find another Jamaican country fan, much less a male! :) Oh, I got my F# by emailing KG and asking for it. They have reverted to never sending AORs yet again!

JillA - you can leave your photos as is. What they don't want is the photos in an album or some such enclosure.

Charlie: Sorry i took so long to respond, I'm off today so i finally got a chance to come on. You're so right about the Colts though, funny how crappy they are without Peyton.... too bad it wasn't the Patriots missing Brady. I've only seen one game so far this season so you're not alone in that department.
The one thing I'm missing about Jamaica right now is the freedom i had to play ball whenever i wanted to. My level of desperation to break a sweat outside the bedroom is so i high i find myself taking the stairs rather than the elevator( I know that was too much info but you gotta admit its funny... well i think it is lol)

Hope all is well with you and the rest of the forum family. My wait may be over but i keep each and everyone, both old and new in my prayers.

JillA... I did mine the same way you did it and Kingston did not take the pictures off the white pages... My immigration lawyer is actually the one that told me to do it this way... Since you already did it like that I don't think you should worry about changing anything...
Oh ok thank you for your input!

Hey hey Mr P. Yes, that was a bit TMI but funny! :p I am glad you are working hard and settling in though, it's a good thing to be too busy to know if you're coming or going, LOL.

Ha, now I don't feel so bad about catching up with football just by checking out the stats every Sunday, LOL!

Thank you so much..so providing they are ok with our leaving date we will be flying a direct flight home to Alberta January 16th 2012. I am in so much shock...this is the last step of what we were waiting for. Its starting to feel final and real now! RG..thanks for letting the forum know about how the email worked for you....it appears to have done the trick for us! Now I can finally start packing and organizing...yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

Trust me... He loves it, I don't even know where he get's it from..." I can live without Island's in the stream " for just one night when I visit!
he loves Dolly Parton, "I said have you ever seen a picture of this woman?" I'm sure he would love her even more if he did!

yes he's got quite the Country selection! so should I get his cowboy hat and boots ready for the next Stampede! LOL!

Bahaha! I love me some classic country, but I'm also into Neo-traditional folks like Brad Paisley, and southern-rock inspired country too. I actually made my husband swear to me we will go to the Stampede one year!
