Congratulations Mel, 
it seems like only yesterday you were coming to 'Hotlanta'.
So glad everything (well discounting the car issues) has gone well since you arrived here.
Good luck with the potential house purchase

Congrats. Now the clock starts on the 5 year Citizenship process (or is it 3 years for you, sorry I can't recall if you married a Yank or not!). Once you get through that it is all over for you and the USCIS!
