*Jawi trying hard fe stifle wan dutty buss hout and laff*

*kin teet*

Ummm...and how did she get to the powder K? What did Daddy K say? *snicker...giggle* that reminds me of the time my oldest son got to my new lingerie (nightie and matching robe)...the robe had feathers around the sleeves...very cute. Welll anyway...I come into my room and I see pink feathers or remnants of feathers floating around my room. My lingerie was not in the bag on the bed. So, I go to my closet to look for it....when I get there...my son (then 3) was sitting on the floor with his little safety scissors...I asked him did you cut up mommie's feathers....and he said no mommy. Meanwhile there were feathers all over him...all over his little head and face and hands. My robe was sitting mangled in a pile next to him...with the price tags still attached.

waaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee BOAL....LMAO...sorry Kimmy! I can't help it! LOL LMAO at the image of white powder all over everything.

I'm starting to get used to being in pain...so I'm okay. The doc wrote me out of work until the 25th. Boy, I wish I could take off for Jamaica. *sigh*

Hope you feel better soon .

Hey all,

My sweetie is scheduled to arrive at 9:52pm tonight so I still have a ways to go. I checked the flight status and everything seemed to be okay. They did leave 12 mins later than they should have but that shouldn't affect the flight too much. I'm on EDGE!! My sister keeps me riled up about him coming and she is so excited to see him. She will go with me to pick him up at the airport tonight. I'm pondering about what I will get him to eat tonight because he should be starving. It will also be really really late though so I don't know.

I know you are too excited. I would be bouncing off the walls...that's why I want to fly back with A so I don't have to do the wait in the airport...looking for him in the crowd.

Tell him that all your sisters from VJ...said "Welcome home MON! Everyting is irie!!! As you have noticed here in the USA we drive on the right side of the road. We will overtake several lanes on a 5-lane highway all at once...and we do not blow our horns unless we are also giving you a lewd hand gesture outside the window or in the rearview mirror. "

Dang, Ms Scott didn't get a date yet..what is going on..has she called the embassy ?

I have called, faxed and e-mailed the Embassy a million times. Every time, I get the same response, "Your husband is eligible for an interview, but a date has not been set." Since I applied for a K-3 Visa, the NVC has nothing to do with scheduling. I have also contacted Congressman David Scott and Senator Kasim Reed in Georgia to see if they could intervene. To date, I have not received any assistance. What's a girl to do? Why do K-1 folks receive faster processing? This process has really put a strain on my marriage. Next week is my one year anniversary, yet my man is still in Jamaica. Other than divine intervention, I don't know what else to do. Milan is also awaiting an interview. Please keep her in your prayers.

((((((((((((((((((((((((Mrs. Scott))))))))))))))))))))))))) mi love yuh like calaloo and okra...ackee and saltfish...

Oh, I am getting so miserable My back is hurting so bad and my feet and ankles are so swollen half of my shoes won't fit! I can't get comfortable at all. Then I had my U.S. today and my cervix is changing which is not good. I'm supposed to take it easy, but that's easier said than done. And to top it off, Tony is leaving today to go to Ohio for work He'll be down there for about a month and come home on the weekends. 9 1/2 weeks to go

Hang in there Chica!! Trust me, I know EVERYONE and there Momma is probably telling you this...but TRY (notice I did say TRY) to enjoy these last few weeks...cause when bambina gets here...there will be very little time to even THINK about being in any kind of pain ! Like I said Sis, TRY to take it easy. I now RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW SUCKS!!!! But when you see her little bundle of joy...it WILL be ALL worth this body drama .

Hang in there...OK?

lol..Thanks Jawi. I am on pins and needles right now because I told him to call me when he made the first stop. Of course he doesn't have a cell phone but I am sure that he can beg a call. I just don't want immigration to rough him up too bad. I am really nervouse because he isn't a bad person and I don't want them to try and be too hard on him. It could also be that I just don't care too much for authoritative figures

Hush Rhonda, it will soon be over and then you will have that precious little one to dote over

They went on and on about their fine "boyfriends" and everything that happened on the trip. I asked how long that had been with their boyfriends...and all of them admitted that this was their first trip to Jamaica. When I asked them how they dealt with the attention from gigalos...they all looked at me like I had two heads and said what gigalos?

Oh boy I can already see how this is going to end. It's sad but I see it happen all the time while I'm down there. Last time, a guy on the beach was trying to get ME to give him money - even after I pointed out my JA husband napping on a nearby lounge chair He wanted me to sneak him $20 so he could get home. I told him to take a Juta bus or route taxi and no way would it cost him $20! That got rid of him!!

I have talked to a lot of men that have decided on this way of life in Ochi...of course most are gone now (some moved away to Kingston...got greencards...got ship work...or were actually murdered ). After the inital approach and me letting them know that it wasn't going down...we actually had some very enlightening conversations. I have watched some of them "work" and watched the women come and go...and be replaced by other women sometimes on the same trip. The men often have several women at one time that live in the US or Canada or the UK. I have tried talking to some of the ladies...but to no avail. It is amazing how defensive women can get when potential love is threatened. I don't try to tell the women that their relationship is not real...just try to have casual conversation about the possibility of meeting a hustler...and I get treated like I'm a man thief or something. The hustlers that I got to know over several trips, looked out for me, and let the "newbies" know that I wasn't buying. LOL

I have not had the best experiences in Jamaica either. I have almost been raped...three times. I have been called a lesbian...you name it. Some of the men can't believe that a woman (single or married) would return again and again and not be looking for the "hood". At one point, my bad experiences just trying to come to a place that I loved outweighed the good experiences and I made up my mind never to return. I am still deathly afraid of using a taxi driver that I don't know (even if a friend recommends them)...I won't do jet ski rides that require alone time with the guy...and will not visit the beach alone at dusk. Other than those precautions...I decided not to let a few bad mind people ruin something that truly brings me joy and peace in my life.

The guys I met years ago were much more civil and respectful...and actually respected me when I gave them a polite no...but was always open to conversation. The guys now are a lot more aggressive and angry and hostile....a fuse waiting to blow. So, I mind my business now and I don't talk to the women that are love interests at all now or the hustlers after the initial not interested.

I love my country and my country-men, but some of them can be so "ignorant". In their minds they are God's gift to women and how dare you rebuff their advances. Dem can call mi stuck up (though of course they will call you worse), but mi nah give dem de time of day, especially when them ready fi class yu because yu nuh talk to dem.

Jawi, I don't blame you for being as cautious as you are. A lot of people go on vacation and take down the guard that they regularly have, which will keep them away from danger (Natalie Holloway + a female journalist who went missing in Jamaica). As a tourist, you think the natives will take care of you, but too much bad mind people out deh. Yu haffi careful. I hope I never fall into that tourist trap and listen to my instincts.

We need to send up some united prayers for Mrs. Scott because she has been waiting since May for an Interview on a K3. She is hitting brick walls with her congressman and senator. What time today is Shonnies sweets coming in?

I'm starting to get used to being in pain...so I'm okay. The doc wrote me out of work until the 25th. Boy, I wish I could take off for Jamaica. *sigh*
