Hi all.

Little one didn't stick around that's the 2nd one in 3 months that we've lost.

Other than that things are going well, hubby is still out of work (it's been 6 weeks now!), but we are looking into him starting college in the fall, somewhere in the medical field since that seems to be where all the jobs are. I was offered a promotion at work last week, which is fabulous! Adjustment is going well, bumps along the way but I expected that.

Hope all is well with y'all.

I'm so sorry to hear that. How are you feeling?

hmmm so maybe this is where I can post my frustration with my husband family! I really dont understand what the rivalry or issue with some Africans is against Black Americans.

My husbands family is sooooo crazy! They give him so much grief about us being married. Not really his family back in Ghana but the brother and sister in law he has here. Ever since he moved out of his brothers house, they have been spreading rumors and calling his family back home telling them that I am such an evil American. We opened a joint account so we have been putting our money in there together. Previously my husband had a account under his brother name,so when we got married the brother went and pulled the statement to see what he was buying for me or my kids. Its ridiculous.

Aside from all that mess, his family back home keeps calling and pleading with him to go back to his brothers house because there worried and scared for him. I really dont understand! They dont even know me and I have never done anything for them to act in such a way. In fact, the sister in law was very friendly with me before he moved out and stopped paying them rent. I really think thats the issue. When he was with them, they treated him like a nanny. He watched the kids, took the sister in law everywhere since she didint drive, paid them rent and still worked. Whenever they needed something to be picked up, they would ask him to get it with his money. Things like diapers, soap and maintencing the car. He never complained either which is crazy to me!

SO i think that the relatives here are just very jealous that he has left and is no longer helping them out. They have even gone to his Ghanian pastor at a local church and asked him to contact my husband to "discuss this issue". I really have no patience for this mess. I want to go and tell his brother (who I have never met becasue he has been deployed) and the sister and law, what I really feel! I know its a culture thing but I cannot take his passiveness. It really bothers me that he doesnt stick up for himself or me! He should just tell people to leave us out of there mouths and that we are married and to stay out of our relationship! But everytime someone calls, he has to feed into their stories and try and plead his case. I could really care less what everyone thinks and if they all believe what his brother says about Black Americans being evil, than they are just as ignorant and not worth acknowledging!

Has anyone gone through this before?? Any sugestions? Im really irritated with his family and with him at times...

Hi, Whidbey. Sorry to hear the news.

Would your hubby be able to attend college on the Island or does he have to commute to study?

Hi Everyone!

Hope each of you are doing well. My husband has his Citizenship, is still in school, and we are adjusting to parenthood. We are very busy, and could use a night of 'uninterupted' sleep. But oh well .... life is still good.

How is everyone doing? I miss you guys ...

Charles - I like the new sight.

Whidbey - Hang in there.
