Still here, and still waiting. We are 9-13-2006. With my husband deploying for a year, I will probably get my referral while he is gone. It would be our luck! LOL! Don't know what would be worse, going to China by myself and Dev not seeing Maya for a few months, or having to renew paperwork for the fourth time. Hmmm.

Nice to see some signatures that I haven't seen in a while.
Hopefully, the rest of us will get some referral fixes in the next couple months.

Hi Karen,

This is Karen in MN. We have just completed our first round of paperwork for SN for China and our anticipated login date will be sometime in September 09. It's unreal that we got back in line again but I just really had the heart for one more.

Hang in there, as you know the end result is worth it!

So cool, what hotel will you be at in Nanning? We are staying at the Majestic/Mingyuan Xindu Hotel. We arrive on 7/20 and stay through 7/24. We will be by yourselves in Nanning so it would be nice to see some friendly faces!
