In shock! Our Green Card has just arrived!!
We made the decision we quite liked it here, and wanted the option of staying to be in our hands, not with work situation, so we took the plunge and asked H's company to sponsor us.
They were more than happy (which was a relief!), and we've just collected our mail ... and there they were! Wow! A bit surprised! And relieved. And happy, of course!! Next step is telling our families and friends. Better than a chocolate egg, that's for sure :D |

Eat out in Houston and you'll get sick:p;) I'm not sure if it was at someone's house or at the bowling alley that same evening, but something upset me. Bleurgh. Still, aids in the weight-loss :thumbup: Hey. Guess what? We've got our Green Cards!!! :D |

Clearly the state of the economy has been a worry, and to lose our way of life and the fabulous friends we've made over here would be a big loss. Of course, at the same time as being great news, it's tinged with a little bit of sadness .. family & friends back home, especially those who can't visit. 7 trips back to the UK in 18 months is too much for anyone! |

Congratulations :D, it makes moving and job changing nice and easy, if it wasn' for the bleedin recession :(

Re: In shock! Our Green Card has just arrived!!
Congratulations - we got ours a couple of months ago and although it was a little bit of an anti-climax after a few days, it's so lovely not to have that underlying fear that you could be asked to leave if a job situation goes wrong. That in itself, with all that's going on, is major cause for celebration! I'm in Katy too by the way and have been here since 2005 - always laugh at the negative Houston comments on here :)

Congrats on the Green Cards - I'm sure its a great feeling :)
