The bad part is it would take 6 hours to mow the grass

Not if you go buy some Billy Goats

We could have curried goat then! Evil

Yes you could. You can raise them, let them eat your grass to fatten up, and then........

You are too funny!! I was trying to offer you some help!

Thanks we just talked he said wait till he gets here. City boy I bet he won't want to go. Worth a shot I guess.

Wait I forgot my alarm clock. I need a roster. The silly Roster when I stay at my hubby always wakes me up at 6am.

Best wishes also to Keishino and Susanwill

Then my brother suggested that I buy this 3 bedroom farm house from my mom and dad that needs minor work like some carpet and paint. I could pay for it all in cash except for 4 thousand dollars of it. Then all I would be paying for is taxes. We could pay for him to go to school and almost everything on my pay check. He could concentrate on college with maybe only working 10 hours a week. I think it is great but don't know if my hubby would go for it. We could also buy that car he wants with cash too. What would you guys do. I am afraid of living in a town of 6 people. Yes they are all im-breads LOL joking. But we could save money like crazy and go to JA every year debt free. The farm house is the same distance away from my job. Would you move from a town of 40 thousand to a town of 6 to save money?

The bad part is it would take 6 hours to mow the grass

Some things to consider- if farm living doesn't suit your family can the property be sold easily? Especially in the current real estate market? If you have children how are the daycare/schools in the area etc.? Would he feel isolated out there-would you? Would the house need any costly major repairs in the near future? How are the town's services; especially emergency services; in a town with six people? Do you think the neighbors would accept an interracial couple? And would your husband feel welcome there? Do you mind mowing the grass for 6 hours? What about the winter time, how long would it take you shovel/plow? Ask your parents why they want to sell. That might give you a good indicator of what to expect. That's just a few questions off the top of my head.

I still would wait until your husband gets there before deciding together. But if you both are up for it, go for it.

I wouldn't move to a town of 6 people to save money-but hey- that's me. I'm a city girl; I can't live too far from the mall.

I have been wearing my hair natural for 2 years now. I love it!!! I wore braids or weaves for most of that time, I started wearing it out in August in a curly afro or a afro puff. For the last 3 months I've been wearing it twisted. I'm slowly working myself towards Locks that is my ultimate goal. I've been wanting to do this for several years. I spend alot of time on this website www.nappturality.com. Ok well maybe too much time It is alot like this one... Very addicting and it offers a great deal of info and support. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Nice website....thank you I'm not chicken anymore

Hey My VJ Family!!!

Just wanted to check in and say hi.....things are basically still the same over here in Cali.....we are still waiting for the green card.....the FBI name check is still pending!!!!

Duane is busy with his art.....we have started a new thing and he is selling prints of all his paintings for much less than the originals are selling......he has had a lot of success with his art and it does help out alot.....I am busy at work myself and we are just trotting along like an old married couple....

It seems like years ago that we were going through all the waiting for the K1 and stress of traveling back and forth to JA.....we are still waiting but at least he is here so it is a little different...Hope all is well with everyone and I hope things are going great for all newbies.....it sure seems that many things have changed with Kingston embassy. CRAZYYYYYY........

Take care everyone...I will check in and say hi periodically!!!

Hey Kim

Hey JAtoCT

I was taking:

Flax seed oil pills

Vitamin A

Liquid silica (you can add the drops to water - I highly recommend)

Increased protein intake - you can do this with protein shakes/bars/chicken breast/etc.

8+ cups of water daily

Now I'm just taking a prenatal vitamin (from Walgreens), but still eating protein and drinking lots of water. My stylist said my hair is a lot softer and easier to manage, and has grown so much this year. I can't do it myself (extremely thick and wavy) so I go to the salon for deep condition/flat iron/hot oil treatments

I'm relaxer free (yay!) but waiting on this color to grow out (I did some blonde/camel colored highlights in 2003 )

Thanks Jonesie.

Have a good evening everyone. I start training for a new job tomorrow and I have to be there at the a$$crack of dawn (7am) so my commute will be about an hour long - but still thankful for a job!

I'll holla tomorrow.

I recently started my new job too... BORING . Anyways I am grateful for the job too. Let us know how your first day was.

[Jamaica to CT 0]

I'm mixed race too, I've permed for years, but my hair won't lie flat lol....Decided to get locs this year, think they'd look good!

Some areas of my hair will lay flat-but others won't. If it was one texture I think it would look ok. Threee different textures- .

But I have an interesting racial makeup with the hair to match. My skin and skeletal features keeps people guessing too LOL

Um BTW... do you have some news to tell us??? Congrats!!
