Hi everyone it has been along time a lot of new faces. I am good just dropped in to say VJ is always on my mind. My Journey has ended filed for divorce. Newbies don't get scare just some differences you can't overcome. My only advice is if things don't work out don't beat yourself up. Sometimes what seems like it's right is not and it is just another life lesson. Hey Tre, Irie, portland and 1luv.



Oh gosh, Morant. Blessings sad.gif

Does anyone know how to make a Jamican fruit cake??? I think fruit cake is just nasty but my man likes it and I am going to attempt and make one for him once he is here so I better start trying now.



You know how many ingrediants in fruit cake? I would find an international store and buy it. Way too much work.

And, I think you have to let it sit a while for the rum to ferment or whatever it does, right?


Mi mada mek dem.



I made one just a couple of weeks ago for my hubby's bday!
It didnt look as black and they say you only get that color with grace browning, which I didnt have, but it gets pretty dark due to creaming and burning the brown sugar.
For the cake to taste pretty authentic, you do need to let the fruits soak about a week
I soaked mine in red label wine adn then actually used the rum when i made the cake..but I think it would be better using rum for both!

I hope you guys are having fun! McKoy gets here Friday!

Thanks!



It took about 3 weeks to get the PR card
I dont THINK they needed to see that..but I am not sure.. I will find out

ok. SS update

M. went yesterday to the SS office because we still (almost 4 weeks since arrival) had not received ssn in the mail. We did get a welcome letter and the permenant resident card
When he went yesterday he was NOT in the system..so he had to apply and they said we should receive the card in the mail in 2 weeks
my advice: wait about a week to 10 days and if you dont get the SS card..go.
I wish we had gone last week

Shrewdie sorry to hear that, you'll get the SSN soon I just know it.

I just recvd my appointment letter yesterday via email, I am glad because I heard so many other VJers say they took forever to send it out and our So's need it for the medical star_smile.gif

Our appointment is 7:00 am I wonder is that the 1st appointment?

Philly, 7am is the first appointment, McKoy was through in an hour and a half! He got hsi visa last week, so we are just waiting now!

Shrewd, what happened with the SSN? We requested that it be sent as well, but it may just be easier to go to the Social Security Administration. Did they give you a number?



hey! I just saw this. Nope, no number. Friday was three weeks that he arrived, so we are going to the SSN Admin tomorrow. Hopefully he is already in the system and can just give us a print out

Also..those of you that have your husbands with you already..how did you do the car situation??

M and I are on different work schedules. I can pick him up but I go to work like 3 hours before him in another town (from where he works and we live).

He works 3 week days and sat and sunday
Sat and Sun are not problems for transportation bc I am off and can take him
So far we ahve been bumming rides (just this week) and its annoying
We have thought about a car but dont want to fork out the money to buy it..or the money to keep two cars up
but..im nto sure we have a choice

there is NO public transportation where we are
Now, come summer (June) I will be off and we would like to wait until about August to get another car

Advice??


I don't know where you live or how far away his job is from where you live but what about a bike? I know that worked good for Marlita.



I kinda forgot about that. We had talked about it.
We live probably about 4 miles from where he works..so not bad..unless it is snowing...

he doesnt have any credit history
I have a high average credit score



I was thinking you meant yours at first, lol - Add him to your credit card, that will build his history - I would also suggest putting a utility bill or something in his name, that will also add to his credit history.


They are all in mine already. Can I just add him on?
I know cell phone and sattelite are contracted under my name..and electric too
thats really all we have except car insurance...??

Hey guys!
Things are going great!
Hubby is settling in nicely. He had 3 days to settle in at home and then today and tomorrow he is working with our friends in getting the seeds planted for their greenhouse
Last night we (HE) had an interview with a local Dr. and his wife for a 2nd ranch hand on the alpaca farm (it is mostly farm work..not as much alpaca work) and starts Tuesday!
It isnt GREAT pay and he will have to work Saturdays and and a few hours on Sundays sad.gif ....but other than that it seems a perfect fit!
We are just glad to get him ANY job in this economy! and so quickly!

Also- we have NO public transportation so M will need a car quick. Some family has a 199 Mitsibishi Eclipse, standard for sale because they are having another baby and its too little..does anyone have any opinions or reviews on that car

I want him to get a truck, but he wants a small car (whatever) and the plus side is it gets better gas mileage


ok. well, I see we have quite a few newbies!
I hope everyone is doing well!!


That's great Shrewie!! I agree any job is good right now - financially but also to keep him going. I wouldn't want to sit around day in day out while my SO goes to work. Can't help you on the car though..



Well, I WANT that; but someone is going to have to win the lottery first!
