Yardies a home and a farrin (Part 21)

[MSNELLY 0]

Hey ladies

Congrats to all that got approved, has their men here in the US going to get approved soon, and for the strong Jamaican relationships we all have or we all have had.

Just wanted to leave this with you.

Women are great financial planners

Dan was a single guy living at home with his father and working in the family business.

When he found out he was going to inherit a fortune when his sickly father died,

he decided he needed a wife with which to share his fortune. One evening at an

investment meeting he spotted the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.

Her natural beauty took his breath away. "I may look like just an ordinary man,"

he said to her, but in just a few years, my father will die, and I'll inherit $200 million."

Impressed, the woman obtained his business card and three days later,

she became his stepmother.

Women are so much better at financial planning than men.

Cute and oh so true...

i should clarify.. i used to love to fight bullies, i didn't like when someone tried to gang up on someone else.. i wasn't scared of nutting and didn't mind showing ppl, even if i got a beat down a time or two (fought a girl 2 times my size once cuz she pushed my baby brother)

What??? You??? U just seem like a peace not war type pf gyal. Neva knew yuh had some fiyah ta yuh....lol

My opinion is: It depends on the aunt/uncle. Some may not mind being called by their first names. I've been calling my mother by her first name since junior high/high school.

Wow....

Oh so she's a oldie but goodie...Thanks.....

Hi all:

I started visiting the website a couple of years ago (2007 sometime). My story may be a little different from most of yours. I came on a student visa from Jamaica back in 2000. Met my husband in 2003 and got married in 2006 and did AOS in 2007. I am now filing for my citizenship which should be completed Feb/March 2010.

I seem to always come by when a new set of ladies are posting. I got in trouble with some of the earlier ladies because I chose to defend my Jamaican brothers from some derogatory comments made by a spurned SO. Long story short, I decided not to come back if that was all that was being posted. I am glad I did take a quick peek a couple of weeks ago because the stories are much more pleasant and happy.

By the way, good morning PhillyFashionista! Hope I got that right.

Nice to see some yardie vets checking in. Jawi, hope you are healing well.

Nice cards JG!

Princess, love the pics & love lil man playing w/Spongebob...he & Lehi could be playmates! Prayers for whatever good news you're waiting for & love that you're naming Baby Girl after his Mama!

Philly, NOOOO don't feel like your life is falling apart because of the kids....things WILL come together...it's just gonna take time & giving it up to God.

MsTee, that's great your son enrolled himself in school like that! It's great when youth have good goals.

Wishing everyone the best with their family adjustments involving kids....I can't really speak on any of it since I'm not a parent but I hope each family finds what works for them. The only thing I do know is that hubby & I seem to have pretty similar views on how children should act....we see kids act up in public & we just give eachother a look like 'you've got to be kidding!' LOL

@ the pic Sus posted...'diet #######' LOL!

at the turn of events at your house Cat! Glad to see there is hope there.

I know I told you on FB but congrats My2 on visa in hand!

Welcome back Shermike & congrats on the soon-to-be citizenship!

We've just been on the move non-stop today....hubby is at his tutoring right now & I hope he's not in too much pain from his root canal today. I'm going to run to the Chinese store to pick up some callaloo before they close & see if I can go pick up hubby before he has to wait out in the cold for the bus. Will post interview story tomorrow morning!

Shermike, congratulations on all of your recent & not as recent milestones in this Journey.

I hear you. It's not fun when there's drama on here, if you're actually in it. We were just commenting last week or so that a few months ago, we got a lot of use out of this smiley but not so much anymore.

[Ellsinlove 2]

Checking in one last time tonight while watching Charlie Brown's Xmas on TV & Hubby gets a pot of veggies on the stove...then we're sitting down to watch 'Up'! We've been looking forward to seeing this for a while....we're both big kids!

Hi MRS. THOMPSON! When are you going to change your screen name??? Hmmm?

Good night Yardies!

[Thompson2 1]

Hey Ells!! and everyone else!! I'm just too lazy to change my name. One of these day. I need to get on it with changing my name in real life too. I feel like I'm half Shaughnessy and half Thompson right now. I got my social changed but was too late with my husbands so now we have to wait until he gets his work permit (or whatever it's called). We also can't get him a license until he gets his AOS approved. Speaking of: Congrats Ells!!!!!

I'm so out of the loop now so sorry for other congrats I missed.

I did want to say MSTEE way to go starting a new thread!!! I'm very inpressed. Also thanks for looking out for me on that post.

Hope everyone has a good rest of the week!!

[jamerican 2]

Well YALL...I gotta go! I need to study before class then after class going to see Tanya Stephens!!!! Whoooo Hoooo.....

Its a pity.....u already have a wife.....

WOW j.. thats gonna be a HOT show.. have fun

it canceled think she heard its 25 degree's here....she still in JA

[jamerican 2]

Philly....so sorry you have to deal with this MESS.....why can't everyone just get along?????DAMN!!! Really?? Well, hopefully you will look back in 3 months and say....wow-we got through it and we all survived! My son (remember I sent him away to Louisiana after he was acting an azz) will be back for good in 2 weeks.....hmmmmm, so I may be with you in the frustration soon.... He was supposed to stay all school year but there were "issues" so home he comes! He did improve his grades and he does realize that home was really not so bad...so we will see....

Jamerican how does he feel about your hubby?

Well......he has never warmed up to any of my previous relationships (not that there was ever a revolving door or anything like that ).... he would rather I not be in a relationship with anyone. He has spoken to Michael on the phone but hasn't met him. He doesn't even know we are married. My son was going through so many issues with school and smellin himself that he would have just used the marriage as an excuse for his behavior so I haven't told him.....but I have to tell him when he returns because my daughter can't hold water---even with a bucket!!! And she loves to announce to everyone that she has TWO daddy's!!

[jamerican 2]

chiney for aftanoon snack mi ave pumpkin bread from the box...

Girl...that pumpkin bread mix is off the HOOK!!! I made it the other day and it is almost gone. I told Michael about it and all he could say is "Yuck" so, I am making another batch and sending him some on Sunday with a friend of mine heading down.... Once he tastes it his mind will change!
