Discouraged

I'm only on business day 33 today but I still feel so discouraged today. I know each case is different but seeing people on here with no decision after 40 business days is tough for me, so I can't imagine what you guys are going through who are past it! I thought for sure there would be plenty of emails and decisions this week.     Now I'm all worried and anxious... I just want a decision for myself and for everyone on here!

Today marks 40 BD for me. they are still playing catch up right now. We are at peak time in the season for visas. I'm seeing that about 40-45 BD's is about the normal time frame but it just all depends where in the queue you are. try and keep busy, just know that when your number is up and you get that pretty shiny sticker(visa) in your passport you will get to look back and share your stories and it will be a distant memory. 
We are here for you...anytime.... you will get through this...You are with a great bunch of people who feel the same thing as you and no one will understand better than all this great people.

And also know, we are all here for you...To talk, to have a shoulder to cry  on...or to vent. We got your back!!!

Thank you so much! I just wish they were more clear in their communication, ya know? I feel so in the dark.

I'm so done. I don't even know what to do anymore. I'm at the point where waiting is just unbearable. I know I have it better than most people as it's ~only~ been 4.5 months since I've seen my husband... but this is so difficult. I just graduated university and have nothing else to look forward to in the states besides getting my visa.

 I feel like I'm never going to get this visa. It's been 38 business days with a pretty straightforward application. I even got an email 2 days ago saying that it was in its "final stages". Wtf does that even mean. I just need some encouragement before I go crazy!!

I feel exactly the same. I'm on day 42 and I literally feel as if i will never get my visa either. I hope neither of us has to wait longer than next week. This has truly been the worst/longest/most painful two months of my life.

Completely understand... They have all the say...all the control....Yep...Its frustrating that your life and your choices are in someone's hands...But just think of the beautiful sticker you will get in that passport...I am going to have my framed when this is all said and done...LOL

I know that feeling...

On a more positive note, I just dropped off 4 bags of clothes to goodwill and I'm listing my car for sale right now! It feels so good to start decluttering and getting ready for the big move.
That being said I already miss my clothes and am not looking forward to sharing a small wardrobe with my husband. RIP walk-in closets. </3 LOL

What's going to be the hardest thing for you guys to get rid of?

Not that I am getting "rid of" but the biggest heart break is...My cat...
He is an older cat, hate to say it...cost.....but the biggest thing is that my aunt and he have grown rather close. She lost her cat and dog with in a month of each other and  ever since they grew a really strong bond with each and I can't separate them. I know Dave (My cat) will be in a loving and caring home and they will take care of each other.

That must be so hard but at least you know that Dave has a great home where he is.

That must be so hard! I'm sorry. But if you feel it's best for him and your aunt you're doing the right thing.

One of my biggest sources of anxiety will be moving my cat over, but I absolutely cannot be without her and (I think) she feels the same about me.

I know how hard of a decision that must have been for you. The only silver lining about this wait taking so long is you get more time with Dave.

The thought of leaving him behind is tearing me up. But i do know he will be loved, spoiled, (more so than he already is) and very well looked after. When her babies (cat and dog) passed away he just seem to know she needed him.

Animals know.

Also, I LOVE naming a cat Dave. My husband, Chris and I always joke about naming a cat Dave because there are so many Dave's in his family and we feel left out! haha. My father in law's name is Dave, My sister in law's (who is also named Sarah) partner is named Dave, and Two of my husband's cousins (who are sisters) are married to and engaged to men named Dave. It's a very popular name apparently.

And I am taking full advantage of the time I have left with him. Nathan, My Aunt and I all talked about it and we all feel the best thing for David is that he stays behind.  And like I said, they have grown quite fond on one another and they my aunt and him are inseparable.

well lets see if I can introduce you all to Dave....Trying this Tapatalk app again...give me a couple of minutes...LOL
