Sorry guys, maybe I didn't explain myself fully....I'm a permanent resident living in Canada. My daughter lives here with me, but she is British. My British CLP resides in England. So, the two people I'm sposoring live in different countries to each other. I think this could be the thing that's holding everying up. :(

U know what Dair2dv8103100? At least U spend time with Ur husband with chats and video messaging etc. I dont. I would love to but we cant seem to find the time. He has been one of the few constants in my life for a long time; have known him for most of my adult life, (high school sweethearts, dated and were together for over 8 years BEFORE marriage, lived in the same city for some of those years, etc) so I am not sure if I feel super-cheated out on not being able to "get to know" each other due to separation. Somewhere in the deepest darkest part of my mind, I like being on my own, having my space, making ALL my decisions totally ON MY OWN including those affecting our daughter. I am terrified about having to change all that; I wish that I can have my husband and still have that all. Wishful thinking! I knowwww, I am a terrible person. :-X lol ;D

My sisters think I just play "tough", as a way of dealing with all the absence and responsibilites. I cant tell if they are right; maybe. I know for sure that I hate to feel weak or dependent on anyone, so maybe that explains the need to be in total control at all times. I dont know. I just try to keep moving at all times, so no time to stop and sulk about my husband being away. :-\

I dont like to talk about this with anyone; I find it hard to even admit it to myself. (Right now, I am thinking "yeah right! and U go and post it on a public forum!!!" lol).
Well, I just wanted to let U know how lucky U r. And U r probably closer to normal than myself. lol. ;D
I don't know how you do that!! I have to be honest if we did not talk on a semi daily basis I would NOT be doing this. Please don't get me wrong because I love my husband very much but this is not the kind of relationship I want for long term. I am also not getting any younger and I know he wants to have a child and I want another also. It's not like we are in our twenties doing this.

We don't have a choice but to be "tough". If we were not we would be bumbling messes in front of our children and what good would that do?? You sound very much like me in that I am extremely independent and like you I like to do what I want when I want. But I also know that eventually kids grow up and leave and I don't want to be growing old alone.

You are right, I am lucky and thankful that I get to spend the time I do with him. I really don't know how you guys do it. I don't know if is the fact that you knew each other so long before or not but I give you a lot of credit!!

and CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am very happy for you. ;D ;D

Hey trini! Welcome to our little forum. Yesterday when I was out I checked out every Canada Post mailbox I encountered to make sure every single one had that bar removed (they did). I also sent a letter down the chute of one of them (finally). We didn't have any mail in our apt. mailbox yesterday but hopefully there'll be something today, after three long weeks. As much as it sucks to lose a month for the CSQ, I'm just glad it was not THE APPLICATION that goes to Mississauga that was sidelined. That would've been worse.
