Yardies at Home and a Farrin (part17)

[DTunda 0]

Wha gwaan, yaadies! It's DTunda again, but everyone can call me Dee.

Most of you are probably still sleeping, but it is already noon here where I am! I'm trying to keep up with the thread but it evolves so fast!

So catch me up, who and who filing from yaad?

I miss Ja so much! Farrin may be nice, but there's no place like home!

Our daughters case was approved. She's been here almost a week now. I got a welcome home cake the night she arrived. I went looking for balloons to match; but couldn't find anything to fit the bill, so I got a "It's a girl" balloon. She didn't get it or eat any of the cake

We've enrolled her in school. Decided to have her repeat the 9th grade because her grades were so poor. She was okay with it, knowing she stopped trying in school once her dad left. She and her sister are doing volleyball try outs this week. It was the funniest thing I've ever seen. In fact, Im making them both run laps latter this morning.They were complaining about how tired they were. It will be a miracle if either one of them makes it.

Hope all is well.

Oh ...Not really sure what to do about how she dresses. Shorts are way to short for a girl who has as much back as she. The short shorts wouldn't be so bad if they weren't so tight. She seems very mature for a 15 year old, I have to constantly tell her to button up her blouse so that her bra/ breast are not hanging out. I think her clothes are fit too tight. I make suggestions but don't want to seem like I'm belittling. I want her to look like a young lady. I decided to just leave it alone, for now. I know for sure that I'm buyn the next size up, next time. She said she's lost seven pounds since arrival. We had Jamaica fare the first few days in a row, So I said we are having spaghetti tonight, she said "what am I going to eat"...I said of course spaghetti.she basically refused to eat it. I told- her like I tell mine when we eat Jamaican food...you are one your own; cause I'm not making anything else- she descided to eat the salad...mine you she's refused to eat veggies since she's arrived...

So cute, Princess - Look at the ear to ear grin!

I feel you Heaven - I have the syllabus for 1 class only - 8 books for that class, about $400 so far - can't wait to see what the other class requires

Who knows, lol - By the time I got out of work he was sleep - the man sleeps like the dead and any attempt at conversation results in incoherence - When he woke up from his nap and called me back, I was sleep - so we'll sort it out today -

YAY!!

I finally got the e-mail from my cell phone with the picture from this morning!

LOVE IT!

jawi.. dats why u my girl!

one more week.. i can't wait to see the arrival pics.. PLEASSEE tell me u will put at least one on VJ.. i don't have FB..

I will try to send one to your email address. But, I honestly feel that VJ has served its purpose for me.

what you tyna say jawi.

you not coming here anymore?

Yep. I know the thought process will be that my relationship is not working. But, there are many that may think its not working now anyway. Those that support me and love me in spite of my being outspoken can still keep in touch with me. It just doesn't have to be VJ. I just don't have a lot of time with work and pain...and probably even less with a new husband at home.

Wow is it just me or do you guys feel like you just got dumped...

im still shocked .

Sometimes we all have to step back and take a break from VJ from time to time.

Just yesterday, when you started posting, I thought "Jawi might disappear for a bit, but she'll come back just like Islandwoman."

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

For those whose fiances/husbands have already arrived, where was the first place you took him?

I was thinking to take Steven to a steakhouse, since that's what Texas is known for, but he's not a big beef eater.

Then I thought to take him to the one authentic Caribbean restaurant, so that he'd have a moment of familiarity amidst all the newness.

Then I decided to give him a taste of another popular cuisine in America: TexMex. So we'll go to Lupe Tortilla or some other texmex place.
