I really hope so, I swear I am not going to believe it until I open the package and have it in my hands.   ;D

So who else is waiting now?

Congrats Geordie wife!

I just had biometrics done today and shipped things off for arrival Monday. Surprisingly it was a sense of relief. Sort of "it's out of my hands now" feeling.

Thank you.  Your information was a huge help to me throughout the whole thing.  I'm pretty sure it saved what little was left of my sanity at the time, haha.

This place has been such a wealth of information that I feel prepared to send everything off on Monday; however, I can't help but have the anxious "I hope it all works out" feeling until I get my answer (which of course I hope is a nice shiny ILE vignette in my passport  ;D). 

Honestly, I don't know what I would have done if I didn't have everyone here.  All the support, information and personal experiences are a tremendous help.
