No thanks Dills I need help with this vegan stuff, I don't have a clue.. both he and my son are going in that direction so I thought I'd be a good mom/wife and start out with the burgers... I was gonna get morning star but they cost too much lol


Do you have a super walmart? They sell the morning star stuff.. and I find them at least $1 cheaper than my grocery store! And better selection too!
Morning Star makes a good "chik'n patty" and the Riblets are sooooo good.

I may have to look for something smaller though for her little hands...:( The Alice and wonderland set is cute! I wonder if my daughter who is 14 will play tea with me? :lol:


I am not sure what little toy stores you have.. but there are a couple up here (like other then toys r us) but you know.. those little boutiquey type places. I always see the cutest little sets... they have tin ones.. which I love too.. no breaking! We got Louis little 4 yo cousin one.. she loves it.. and I am sure can make mud tea with it! LOL.
But there is this ladybug one that comes in a basket... so cute.

LOOK! I found this on WALMART!!

Thanks E, Im pysching myself up!!! I can't keep paying 90.00 for this #######!


On another note:

Reason #25678954 not to have kids...

My brother called me last night to tell me "Hurricane Siyah" (my niece) as I like to refer to her as who is 2 years old got a spanking yesterday in the supermarket. For some reason she was compelled to pull her pants down and shake her butt!!! :blink: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: She is a hot rass mess. I just got off the phone with her and asked her why she did.. she said "I pulled up my pants" :rofl: I guess so after the butt whoopin!

Her birthday is in June and my sister is having a "Princess" party for her, because she walks around chanting, "Im a princess, im a princess". I bought her pajamas that look like a princess gown. She loves them. I am so excited about her party. Im going to buy her a tea set and have little cakes for her and sit with her and play :)


Oh MrsTee... go to stashtea.com... I have bought Tierra 2 teasets from them and now they have a really pretty Alice in Wonderland set. My dad lives near Portland OR where the HQ is and said he will get it for T. I bet Hurricane Siyah would LOVE it!!!!

PS... they have great TEA too... double bergamot early grey is the yummiest!

Good morning Everyone!

Congrats MsSheka! That is great news!!

Kjenk & TAMH… soon soon!! YAY! Good luck to you both!

Ells.. that is so nice mom and auntie thought of you two… sounds like fun. I really want to go to Vegas, I am sure Louis and I would both be overwhelmed.

Congrats on the good news Jamerican! Now you have to call hubby!!! :)

YES! Happy Wedding Day to Cara!!! I am sure the fun has already begun!!! Cannot wait to see pictures!!!

Well I did my taxes yesterday, a little depressing….. MUCH LESS than last year! Oh well it is because Louis is working so that is even better. We will be paying off SO MUCH of our debt and be well on the way for a wonderful year. I had added Louis to my bank accounts the day after we got married… but I am going to have him open another account at a bank down the street. A nice small local bank. My CU is too far away. I think we will start a christmas account as well. So we can start now to plan for a Christmas/New Years trip to St Lucia. I VOW TO BE MORE LIKE NAT THIS YEAR and be happy to see my money add up, instead of spending it all. Louis and I have already said… no new big purchases this year. We wanted a new bed and couch but it will wait… what we have will last. People live with less… an WE CAN DO THIS!!!!

Oh some other cute news, and I can't remember if I told you all. The girlscouts are having a Father/Daughter dance in March. Louis asked Tierra to go and she said yes!! awwww…. so cute. He told me yesterday I am "the best wife he could ever have" and he wants to work on our family this year. So we can all get along better! :)

I think he is going the 15th-29th. Last night he said I know you are going to be lonely sleeping alone. I just had to laugh I said the second you are gone Marley is going to crawl right in so I won't be alone at all.


LOL! Tierra takes more of the bed than Louis does. She is pissed now she will have to go back to her own bed.
We have a little spare room/art room/computer room... everything room. with a futon type couch with an air mattress on top. SHe will sleep in there instead.

It's funny - I can't wear cheap shades - I have to find polarized lenses, which are harder to find in cheap shades. It's funny though - DJ has seen the difference in the lenses, and has the same issue since his accident - so he always tries to steal my glasses when I am there!


Yes, my eye Drs have always told me I should be wearing fairly dark sunglasses for most of the day, whether it is sunny or not. I have super sensitive eyes. Sometimes when its just a little light out they go blurry and water and I cannot keep my eyes open to save my life. Its as if someone is shining a spotlight in my eyes from 2 inches away.
I kinda want to get the transitions lenses. So they adjust... LOL... I will be the cool chic with sunglasses on inside!hahaha!

Irie, I know you happy your hubby is home! Awww...I know you missed him!

Ms. Sheka, I'm sure you will be fine with pulling the evidence since you have so much. You go girl, you guys are going to be fine!

KJ, I know you getting crunk over there.

Well I brought Den into work with me today and he's a hit!! Everyone is so glad to finally meet him and all the Yardies here at work have been coming into my office this morning to meet him and give him the real deal about adjusting and all. It's been nothing but love! :thumbs:

We have a jammed packed weekend...so just wanted to drop in real quick!!!!

I had an astigmatism in both eyes too - They have improved their techniques and can now address them - Also, they have improved the contacts too, and the cost - But if you factor the cost of glasses / contacts over a 10 year period, Lasiks is actually cheaper in the long run.


I have to wear those stupid weighted contacts... so if I move my head all everything goes blurry. They dont fit right on my eyeball.. it was all for superficial reasons I had them.
I at least need new glasses... it has been too long. But at least the past 5 years or more my eyesight has stablized.
IrieCatFemaleSaint Lucia2010-02-05 10:34:00
Mexico, Latin & South AmericaYardies a home and a farrin (Part 22)
Philly... He brought me back a small painting, earrings and a bottle of my favorite rum. Oh and some breadfruit! :)

Lasik isnt as expensive as I thought! I should check it out again. What I wouldnt do to not have to wear glasses and look cute in some cheap shades!
I have a severe astigmitism in both eyes... my eye balls are football shaped instead of round. Its pretty bad! I am blind without glasses... like walking into stuff blind. I used to get contacts at $600 a pair just so I could look cute going out... still couldnt see right. Couldnt wear them to work or drive.
I like to think I have pretty eyes, and like to wear eyeshadow, makeup etc... but with glasses its all too much!

I think I would be afraid to check with MINT... I get anxiety when I think about money too much.
Louis and I have a plan and I need to STICK TO IT! Then I wont have the anxiety. I want to be happy to sit and watch the money grow... now I am happier spending money! ;)

I watched a little bit. It was kinda boring. I rather see my own eye.

The part that the video can't capture though is that when the laser is blinking on your eye, correcting it, your vision improves before your own "eye." It was so weird for me watching the light go from out of focus to in focus so quickly.

--------------------------

Looking at the mint.com trends from September to January, here are a few areas that grew significantly.
Groceries: $247 --> $ $456
Int'l Calls: $55 --> $134
Fast Food: $25 --> $195
<unnamed>: $15 --> $316

Just in those 4 categories, spending is up $759/month. So you see why I don't mind keeping a $120 housekeeper, when we can cut that out so easily in another category.

I did ask Steven yesterday if he felt like we should get rid of the housekeeper to save $$. He said we shouldn't do that to her considering she was just robbed Tuesday. I'm sure if I wait a few months, he'd have another reason not to get rid of her (which is 100% fine with me!).


Wow! I thought I spent alot on groceries and I have a kid! But you guys do wayyyy better on the int'l calls.. that is my highest bill.


If you don't mind me asking... how much was Lasik? I would LOVE to get it done. A few years back I didn't qualify for the surgery because it had not advanced enough for my astigmitism but the Dr told me to just wait a few years and he was sure they would be able to help me.....

Just got a text/email from USCIS saying that our I-485 "is now pending at the office to which it was transferred."
That's different from the notice 5 days ago saying that it was "transferred to another office for processing."
I never heard of anyone getting that pending notice.

I believe a Touch is better than No Touch, so this must be good news.... :unsure:


Hi Nat... I got that same notice as well.
