Minfey, Sunny.

I remember when JPII came to St. Louis. That was crazy. Good luck getting around town today.

Anyone heard from Rhonda lately?

I'm wondering what happened to LaPrincesa and the interview too. Kimmy, did you know her?

Oh, and Kimmy.....no Lauren for Kashi? What name is he leaning towards?

Andre started training for assistant manager on his shift yesterday. He can't apply for the position until June, when he has been an official shift leader for 6 months. By June, he should know all there is to know and breeze right through.

I'm excited he's doing so well.



Congrats, he must feel so pleased good.gif

the other day one of my friends said to me if don't i know that the devil will do his best to tear down marriage because it is a god-bless union. I never looked at it like dat, but when u look around mi haffi say is true.

dear lord,

please reach out to jomo's friend son. lord today when so many young men are getting into trouble and losing their lives. lord please keep him from harm and still his temper and his hand. lord please reveal what is bothering this young man, lord if he's bored let him find something contructive to do. lord if he is with the wrong crowd please seperate them. lord you don't give us more than what we can bear. lord give his mother the faith and the strenght and the guidance to reach out and help her child, even though the short term solution may seem harsh, we are worried about the long run for this child. lord please turn that angry spirit into a peaceful one. lord u know the future U have for THIS child and lord u will not let the devil take it away. THE DEVIL IS A LIAR. thank you lord for hearing this prayer and granting this request amen.


Jengs, I just prayed last night for God to expedite your needs i will continue to left you up in prayer.


Please add me to the prayer list cause i currently feel like I am breaking.



Oh Lita. I am right there with you
Guys, I am praying for you all.
I pray that in the midst of struggle and confusion and pain that we receive peace and even more, hope!
I just know that Satan is fuming mad because he has NO PLACE HERE with any of us. He is getting cast out right and left and he IS A LIAR.
All darkness and lies must be cast out because in the light there is NO PLACE for darkness.
I just pray that in the moments that we all hurt, in the moments we want to crawl up in the fetal position and cry, in the moments we want to SCREAM, in the moments where we just feel all alone - I pray that we are able to "chin up" and say - MY GOD WON.
and ladies..He did it then... HE WILL DO IT AGAIN.
for you. for me. for us. HE WILL WIN.

ok. off of soapbox now.
Lita, I am especially praying for you. WE WILL GET THERE. everyday I think about that stupid NOA2 and wonder how much longer I can "live with my life on hold" which I feel is what this rediculous immigration process is doing to all of us.


AMEN

God can heal all wounds, remember that!!! sometimes we don't understand the who what and why things happen, but sometimes we emerge a stronger person and we get a better understanding of who we are. ladies remember the devil is a liar. a man told me two weeks ago that a woman's weapon is her mouth and I know for sure that mine can be. Life has strange twists and turns and sometimes we end up in a place and just don't know how we got there, sometimes we wonder where did we go wrong. but you haven't. sometimes the road that we were meant to walk gets blurry and sometimes we wonder if we should stay on that road. God will let you know. sometimes we just have to listen to that quiet still voice. and that voice is very quiet so yes, we have to keep still to hear it. After I read the prayer this morning, i went on the subway and I heard it...LOOSE...and there it was.. one bond broken. and I came back and got the confirmation.

Sometimes when we are angry things are said and done, that in the normal way of doing things would never happen. the aftermath can be very hard, when trying to remember that things were done in anger.

sorry so but i had to get up so mi lose the vibes, but anyhoo. someone needs our strength now, a marriage needs our help, pray that tempers are cooled and the lines of communication are opened and lead to reconciliation. (and no ah no mine marriage, not yet, but i'm sure one day i'll be looking for this post.)

good night, mi just come in from school and hungry a kill me.

please pray for my temper. lawd it bad and when mi get vex, di pressure reach di sky and sometimes, I say the most hurtful things and then mi turn around and wonder whose mouth that came out of. I need patience. and of course the marriage, whoever or whatever is trying to block him, must go away.

Run and hide Jengs. When my ex husband (and sometimes my children, but not as often as HIM) used to vex me I would just remove myself from the room and hide in the bedroom or bathroom and count to 10, or 20 or however long it took to cool off.

My other suggestion is make sure you take time for yourself to wind down and do something you like/enjoy. If you have a way to vent that energy your temper won't be so close to the top. My kayak and treadmill were my therapist while going through my divorce and after the death of my grandfather.


You prayer request is granted. good.gif

Please take it easy. Remember my mom's friend died a few weeks ago. Stress related. Had a heart attack for no reason. Autopsy showed nothing. All we know is that she was under a lot of STRESS and PRESSURE.

Lord, I ask that you take JENGS under your wings at this moment. Please HOLD on to her, because she needs you now more than ever.

No matter how steep your ountain, the Lord will climb it with you. He will light your path in darkness, his hand will guide you through. There is really nothing in this vast world to fear. God hear all of your questions, he send the answer so clear. "HAVE FAITH AND PATIENCE MY SISTER" ... He can calm the troubled waters.
Lord I also ask that you watch over all my sisters here and to please help me get better my Wednesday. Lord, all these things I ask in your precious name. AMEN. AMEN. AMEN


thank you, i have tears in my eyes. I needed that SO MUCH. I feel much better now.

Hey Jax,

How much was the goat? I am wondering what a good deal is? Plus anybody know the secret to tenderizing this ere American goat?

To be honest. Hubby looked at the prices and said no. He said it was double the JA price and it was hard to cook. Sorry I can't help anymore. I love Ebay. My cousin even bought her formula on Ebay for real cheap. With no problems I was like formula are u kidding. Geeish...


Formula too! rahtid!!!

man I love ebay, its so addicting. I swear I got everthing for my wedding on there, right down to finding the lady in China who made my dress,haha.


how did that work out, but fi real i got stuff from e-bay for my wedding the girls dresses and yes they were new with the wreaths to match the place cards.

O.K. I wasn't planning on bring my stroller anywhere. I can walk to all the stores in my area like Walmart, Kohls, dollar store, grocery store and more. I understand. I wasn't going to bring it to Jamaica or anything. Did you ever use a travel bed when u go away? I am thinking about the princess travel tent. Just worrying about when we travel to Jamaica and having the little one sleep on the floor. When we are staying at a mom and pop hotel.


how about the eddie bauer bouncer with the zip up net, i thinks it reclines all the way.

GILL -- you've got to be kidding right. I'm SPEECHLESS right now. Well, we found out last night that Marcel auntie...the FATCEY one in New York is coming to living in Maryland (the same state) she told everyone in Jamaica was too DANGEROUS because it's close to D.C. and they always shooting people there. So here the B#$(*. "YOU KNOW SEH DEM THINGS NEVAH REALLY WORK OUT...besides SHE AVE PICKNEY AREADI AND SHE LOOK OLD". Mi naw asah her yet. She leaves for Jamaica the same day as I do and we should arrive about the same time. She don't know I'll be there. She also tells Marcel parents how she/THEM really have to sit down and talk sense to him and that's the main reason for her VISIT! I know she really there for her daugther's wedding (which I'll be attending) and that she was not invited to. Her own daugther didn't invite her mother to the wedding. Need I say more.


Yuh know i'm starting to think she don't want Marcel to come to America, because then the people back home will find out say, her life ain't to hot, yuh feel me?

TGIF everyone

My epidural was a godsend, because once the pitocin kicked in my contractions went from being bearable to me crying in pain for Jesus laughing.gif

It took a good while for them to get the catherer in the right place because I kept feeling it (and that was mainly because my back was not positioned correctly) but I felt every urge to push. My placenta would not come out when I pushed so the doc had to go in and get it (thank you epidural!) and then I would not stop bleeding so they had to go in again and remove clots (thank you epidural!).

If we have another child I would still like to have the natural experience at a birthing center, but if I have to be induced with pitocin then that will be out of the window.


Jonesie, you SON is adorable!

WICKED drug - Pitocin! You can REFUSE IT! (almost all of my friends that were given PITOCIN - had a C-Section) I REFUSED it. They gave it to me then I told them to TURN it off (they kep telling me it would speed up my progression). I said HELL no. They just want you the hell out of there and so does the insurance company. NEXT! That's not the way my grandmother says it's suppose to work. They make it seem like you can't REFUSE IT, but you can. It's your body, unless something is really going wrong you try your best to control the situation. The nurses I had didn't listen to what I was telling them I was feeling. I could feel my son go down and then pull back up. It was the WORSE pain I've every felt in my life and the reason I was feeling that pain was becuase my umbical cord was wrapped around my son's neck once and around his shoulders twice. Everytime I would feel him going down his heart rate would drop and my family was complaing, because most of my aunts are L&D nurses and it cause a big argument. In the end, I ended up with an emergency C-Section and all HELL broke lose. They sent their DAMAGE control squad to talk to me the next day, because they thought I was going to sue them. Don't let the NURSES tell you what' you're feeling. It's your BODY! Some of them that have children, must have forgotten that they were in the spot at one point.

On a side note BEST DRUG EVERY "STADOL" - I was so DAMN high all I wanted to do was have SEX.



That sounds awful! I'm so petrified of what's to come in six months unsure.gif

Try not to worry about that. Just try and take it easy.

right now, here is my concern about j.a. building a house. I would at some point like me and mr jengs to build a house so we can retire but. I'm also concerned about my stuff being there when we return. Any thoughts on this. How do u guys handle this?


Hey JENGS; That was my parents concerns back in 1982. Let me give you the short version. My dad's house was suppose to be 2 levels with a wrap round varenda on each level. Because my dad was not there they stole a lot of his materials. It took another 4 years to get back what was stolen from him. My dad's advice to anyone who is trying to build there now, if you can be there at least for the 1st stages, BE THERE! For the last 15 years the dad is making constant repairs. We're now adding another level and my dad had to reinforce all the walls on the lower level, because it was not done properly the first time around.

Jengs -- if you can have someone look after your house (someone you trust) that will open the house up to get AIR every now and then, that would be great. With my dad's house we had one part of the house rented out and the other party we stayed in while we're there on vacation. That's always worked for us. CAUTION: Be careful who you rent to, if you choose to do that after you build or have a family member stay in the house.



Everyone I know who has done this sort of thing, had someone they knew and trusted living there while they couldn't be. That can bring it's own set of problems, even from family members; but is much safer then letting it sit empty.


JENGS --

It also depends on where you build. A lot of the newer places are going up in communities that are gated and have security, some are actually HOAs and you know that's going to cost. I know a lot of people who have an empty house there, but I mean COMPLETELY EMPTY. Also, watch the family thing. It may work for you, it didn't work for US.


I'm no where near the building or buying stage...but was just worried about what would happen. mr jengs is trying to have his twin stay in his house now, since people tried to move in there after the flood.

It hurts me to see him slowly learning this lesson.


I feel your pain, and I know how hard it is to sit by and watch him go through something that hurts.



I used to sit back and be quiet. Lately, I've spoken up more and more. I can't let him be hurt anymore.

He called his mom Sunday. She said she's sick and needs to go to the doctor. I said why doesn't she go? He said, she says she has no money. I said, um.....free medical care in JA since April 1st. Andre said why would she say that then? Um....cause she thinks we don't know. Neverending. You can't even call your mom on Mother's day.........



Good evening everyone, I think we need to clear up what free medical care in JA means. The free only applied to the Dr's vist at the hospital and some clinics. All lab, xrays (ancillary services) vaccinations and medicine are still at a cost to the patient. If the patient is seeing a private Doctor at his/her office there is still a cost.

JA did not throw out the baby with the bath water. What I am trying to say is, there are still waiting periods (long lines) at all clinics. You can go to a clinic and a hospital and not be seen because of this because the waiting list is too long. ...... Or the Doctor (specialist) you need to see is not at the clinic today. I hope we all understand that there is no such thing as total free health care anywhere in the world. There is poor health care(free) or good health care ($$$$$). You pick your own prescription. Pay you might get good service, but if you want free you have wait for whatever they want to give to you. Yes, JA is trying to give it's people something and something is better than nothing.


Sorry,but if my mother was sick, I would move heaven and earth to get her some care.


Be Bless

More power to you.

According to the reports, it's ALL free at the hospital.

That's a shame someone has to wait in a long line for free care. I'd wait a week in line if someone was going to give me something free.

It's easy to see how the money issue could quickly ruin these relationship...and I'm glad to see that I'm not alone...(although I wish I was because I know how much this sucks balls for all of us!!) I just hope that our men learn sooner rather than later who really has their best interest in mind...and that whether or not they believe it---family ain't always it!! I know my husband has a very hard time believing that his precious mother can be manipulative towards him---whenever it comes up I swear I always end up hanging up in order to save my marriage. Just this past weekend she made her mother (who is in her 80's) get up out of bed and go all the way down to his house, just show she could show him that his grandmother was hungry!! What kind of bullsh#!@ is that? He called me in near tears and ended up going out on the street looking for money to give to her. This, after he had already explained to his mother his and my situation and why we were strapped at this point in time. Do you think it mattered to her one bit? HELL NO!! RASS...



It will be a very hard lesson for him to learn. And, it will be painful for you to watch it dawn on him that this is happening.

Thank you so very much Roxcie for giving my fellow "Jamaicans" the real understanding behind this free medical thing here in Jamaica.

I just feel moved at times of how people seem to find all thats wrong or going wrong in Jamaica but hardly ever stop to give honor where honor is due. I must say that as a Jamaican im am proud of the step that the Jamaican government has taken to "try" and assist those of us who cannot afford to visit a private doctor because of financial reasons. (and might i add the big US of A is yet to put some level of normalcy to its medical care system). Think what you may about the medical care system in the Jamaica, but the government here tries very hard with the limited resources that it has.

I just wish and pray for the day when Jamaicans who have left here and supposedly goes to the where the "grass is greener" will not only see what is wrong with this beautiful country but will also spend some time to see the vast improvements that have also taken place here.
You all talk about crime about in Jamaica as if Jamaica is the only place that crime exists?????? I watch the news every evening and there is not ONE evening where i dont see someone being murdered senselessly in the great America.

Give honor where honor is, Jamaica like everywhere else in the world has its fare share of problems and no one government or small group of people can fix it.

Thank you.
Respectfully yours,
Jamaican Citizen




Kish --

As a Jamaican MYSELF I'm hurt by this statement, but everyone is entitled to type as they feel. I don't feel that nothing that was SAID yesterday attacked JAMAICA at all. You're in Jamaica, right, not in the states as yet. If the tables were turned or when you get here you'll have a BETTER UNDERSTANDING. What we spoke of yesterday is nothing new and like I said have been going on for many, many YEARS. I love my country and plan to move back there in the future. My parents choose to come here, not because things were BAD IN JAMAICA, but because my mom came to go to nursing school in the states and my dad didn't want to be away from his young wife and we followed a few years later, because he wanted his family together.

True crime is everywhere, but it MAKES ME SICK to my stomach to watch my aunt who has lived and worked in Jamaica her entire life as a school teacher get robbed by the very people she may have taught in grade school. I MAKES ME SICK to my stomach, when people who have lived in the US, CANADA or ENGLAND return to Jamaica to live out the rest of their lives, but can't, live where they grew up in Jamaica because of CRIME. IT MAKES ME SICK to my stomach when people who were EDUCATED in the states return to Jamaica to start up a business and put back into the country, but can't because of CRIME! My girl it is what it is.

It hurts me to see him slowly learning this lesson.


I feel your pain, and I know how hard it is to sit by and watch him go through something that hurts.



I used to sit back and be quiet. Lately, I've spoken up more and more. I can't let him be hurt anymore.

He called his mom Sunday. She said she's sick and needs to go to the doctor. I said why doesn't she go? He said, she says she has no money. I said, um.....free medical care in JA since April 1st. Andre said why would she say that then? Um....cause she thinks we don't know. Neverending. You can't even call your mom on Mother's day.........



Good evening everyone, I think we need to clear up what free medical care in JA means. The free only applied to the Dr's vist at the hospital and some clinics. All lab, xrays (ancillary services) vaccinations and medicine are still at a cost to the patient. If the patient is seeing a private Doctor at his/her office there is still a cost.

JA did not throw out the baby with the bath water. What I am trying to say is, there are still waiting periods (long lines) at all clinics. You can go to a clinic and a hospital and not be seen because of this because the waiting list is too long. ...... Or the Doctor (specialist) you need to see is not at the clinic today. I hope we all understand that there is no such thing as total free health care anywhere in the world. There is poor health care(free) or good health care ($$$$$). You pick your own prescription. Pay you might get good service, but if you want free you have wait for whatever they want to give to you. Yes, JA is trying to give it's people something and something is better than nothing.


Sorry,but if my mother was sick, I would move heaven and earth to get her some care.


Be Bless

Thank you so very much Roxcie for giving my fellow "Jamaicans" the real understanding behind this free medical thing here in Jamaica.

I just feel moved at times of how people seem to find all thats wrong or going wrong in Jamaica but hardly ever stop to give honor where honor is due. I must say that as a Jamaican im am proud of the step that the Jamaican government has taken to "try" and assist those of us who cannot afford to visit a private doctor because of financial reasons. (and might i add the big US of A is yet to put some level of normalcy to its medical care system). Think what you may about the medical care system in the Jamaica, but the government here tries very hard with the limited resources that it has.

I just wish and pray for the day when Jamaicans who have left here and supposedly goes to the where the "grass is greener" will not only see what is wrong with this beautiful country but will also spend some time to see the vast improvements that have also taken place here.

You all talk about crime about in Jamaica as if Jamaica is the only place that crime exists?????? I watch the news every evening and there is not ONE evening where i dont see someone being murdered senselessly in the great America.

Give honor where honor is, Jamaica like everywhere else in the world has its fare share of problems and no one government or small group of people can fix it.

Thank you.
Respectfully yours,
Jamaican Citizen



I dont think anyone is attacking Jamaica. In fact, I think anyone here that makes comments about Jamaica feels they can do so because we all feel like Jamaica is part of us. It isnt like we feel its this crazy country worse than ours... at least I dont... it is that we hold it in a place in our hearts and when crime (or whatever everyone is talking about at the time) happens there..it hurts us.



I don't feel like jamaica is worse than the rest of the world. I'm not sure of that when I compare jamaica to other islands (in regards to crime) . Maybe it is because Jamaica is larger compared to other islands so maybe some feel they can get away with more (more places to run). I feel that most of the other islands are equally disadvantaged, and I'm not saying that they don't have crime. They do, but not on the level of jamaica. I remember growing up and hearing about people being murdered because of politics and just couldn't understand that. (and yes I know it goes on in Hati and mi nuh understand that either) You killing me because of a vote??

And yes I commend J.A. for this first step in giving back to its citizensn and do belive that if more people gave back and helped the government build the Infrastructure of J.A. J.A. would be a better place and I'm not going to talk about J.A. stablizing its dollar cause when I look at the Bahamas who keeps its dollar on PAR with America and it isn't even pretty like J.A. I get vex.
