(F)Guys, I need your prayers once again! (F)

Ok, so I am one my way to drop off the $$ for Ken's room!! I decide to check Craigslist one more time...

Guys, I found an 2 bedroom apartment RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM MY KIDS SCHOOL, right around the corner from my Dad's house for...$1200 (utilities INCLUUDED)!!!

Guys, it is like G-d sent this just for me!! My biggest struggle is finding a place that I can afford and still keep my kids in a good school district! Unfortunately on LI, where your kids go to school depends on where you live!

Guys, I AM BEGGING YOU PRAY FOR US...PLEASE!!! Instead of Ken moving to a room all by himself 10-15 minutes away...WE could move into our OWN place APRIL 1st!!! And start living as a family!

Please pray that G-d touches the landlord's heart and chooses us to be his new tenants!!! My boys would NOT be uprooted from their current school and we would be able to save for a house and I would be around the corner from my Dad (he's getting older...and you never know)!

Thanks Guys...love you!

Gill, I'm in the same boat a you baby girl. I go to sign my lease next month. For my SANITY I had to get out of that house. The house I was going to purchase the people changed their mind. I'll pray that things work out for you and Ken. I had a bit of a struggle to get my apartment, they were going back and forth on whether they should approve me or not, because I own a house (I didn't understand that). Girl, I just started to cry. Went home got on my knees an prayed. That's all I could do. I have so much going on right now in my life with the K-1 process, finiding a place to live, finding renters, packing, moving, finding a before and after care for my son, getting him registered for school and dealing with my VERY disrepectful EX -- I feel like I'm going to have a nervous breakdown. Many times I feel like running away, just to take a break from the stressors in my life, but I sit back and reflect and look at what God has blessed me with.

I'm healthy

I have a healthy and loving son

I can wake up every morning and get out of bed and stand on my 2 feet

I have a great job with excellent benefits (so that I can provide for myself and my son)

I have roof over my head

I have family and friends that love me and want the best for me in life

In a few months or so I'll marry the person I want to share the rest of my life with.

Gill, I as I ask God to order my steps, I ask him to order you steps as well. So, to my VJ sisters

God has a plan for each of us. He wants us to fulfill and he'll provide the STRENGTH we need to carry out his will.

Okay. Now, mi hungri

Lawny, mi woulda tink by now you woulda already eat yu three course breakfast :rofl::rofl:

Claire,

I'm so damn hungry I'm about the ROAST one of the birds that's on the balcony at my job.

Claire, I was feeling down this morning, but you and everyone else got me cracking up. All now mi no eat. Cho gone to the vending machine.

Just found out there's a Jamaican Restaurant opening soon across the street from my house. It's called "Irie Cafe" I'm so excited :dance: I hope the foods good..... Ray asked me if I called and put in a request to have it near my house. :lol:

We actually have quite a few Jamaican's here in Maine ... if you can beleive it!

A couple nice restaurants as well. I wish I could find a nice Ital place... maybe Louis and I should open one! Hmmmm! :D

My dad cooks the best food, when he lived in Maine he had a farm and the migrant workers that were from the Caribbean they would stay with him. Called him the "white Jamaican" LOL ... he used to tell them all to stay away from me... Everyone knew I was "Tom's daughter" and they would run in the other direction! :P

I would love to come and get some lobster from there and make curry lobster. Yummmmm

We have quite a bit of Italian places, but the caribbean places are either nasty or too far. I hope the one works out.

Sunny,

If you're talking about MARYLAND I agree 100% and they want to charge you a lot. I'd rather stay home and eat a can of sardines.

********************************************************************************

....when it hurts to look back and you're scared to look ahead LOOK beside you and I'll be there.....

There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore... and who always will.

So, don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

Clairern,

Thanks so much. It's really exciting. I just realized your in NC. lol I love NC BBQ....

:lol::lol: Girl the BBQ thing confused me when I moved here. In NYC when you talk about BBQ, that means we are cooking out on the grill. Here that means BBQ pullled pork. :lol::lol: I am not a pork eater, so I have not tried it, but I hear that it's good and see people eat it alot. :yes::yes:

Kimmie, I am sorry you are not feeling well. I hope you feel better soon. Get some rest. How have you been sleeping? Maybe it is your eyes from being on the computer so much. My head feels the same way when I on online a lot. You maybe can apply a warm compress to your forehead that will relax the blood vessels in your head and lie down with your eys closed to help relax you. :thumbs:

Gill, what is going on with KJ's visa? We never got an update on it. Was he at the interview? Is he coming up with Ken or will he be coming at a later date. Forgive me if I am prying and tell me if I am.
