Hey Claire, how tings?

Hey Tam Tam; Tonks for the shout out. I am here at work till 11pm (call in to work 4 hrs for an extra $10/hr and couldn't resist). Just catching up on the reading. I am still waiting for that snail mail from JA with Mike's corrected DS-230. He claims it was mailed out last week Tuesday. Getting mail from Ja is some he!!. When he used to work in Kingston, he would go to the General PO and mail it. He now works a little outside Spanish Town (near to Dovecot Cemetary) and asked his cousin to mail it from Old Harbour. He leaves for work at 0600 and gets home at 2000, so he couldn't get to the PO. I am just tired of waiting. I check my mailbox everyday with such anticipation, that my heart sinks when I don't see a letter from Ja. But, girl, I am still hanging in. Every disappointment is for a good. They would have sent the RFE for the passport pictures anyway. I am just taking it easy and hoping for an April/May interview. I miss him so much and I am tired of calling him and telling how much I miss him. Like he says to me most of the time "I feel the same way, but there is nothing you or I can do about it right now, so just hang in there and remember our love is everlasting and will edure this trial that we are going through."

Nuh mind mi dear, it soon reach. Snail mail is a hell of a ting, but yuh should get it soon. Keep the faith...what a small world. My father lives right by Dovecot...we live in a scheme called Green Acres and it is literally the right turn before Dovecot. Mi knoa, it's a small world.

Claire, I will keep you in much prayer because I know you will get it soon and I know you are not going to sleep on that. Right back to the NVC quick time!!!

Awwwww.....and I just noticed all our names are on the little red hearts. Too clever, JAE. He really is adorable in those wings. How many times did he bang himself in the head with that heart balloon on the stick?

:crying::wacko::angry::o .......I just received an email from Consularkingst@state.gov.......I could just scream......cry......but none of that will help.......SO I patiently continue to ride this storm out.......They told me not to anticipate an interview date until April or May.......if I knew how to cuss in Patios.....I sure would be expelling a few words at the NVC myself........Sorry I had to vent a little.......Love Ya All!

Mawin baby gurl,

It's allright. I'll pray for you. Maybe they'll have some cancellations and they'llmove up the date.

So, don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

okay, so like i stated yesterday, i was 45 minutes late in picking up my son, due to the snowstorm. gave myself an extra 10 minutes to get to the school. I get there and one other child is there besides my son. before that i'm in the car thinking i don't have a number for the school after 4pm. the secretaries go home, so i could call them and let them know i'm on my way. i get there sign a form saying i owe $10.00 for picking him up late. i had no problem doing that.

the school secretary calls me this morning. [b]stating that the people in the afterschool program "have other things to do after 6:30" and they should have taken my son to the precint (but no yah not because they don't have cars and don't want to have to go there and then go home)[/b] and she's "not concerned about me, but those on her staff" I mean really. I hate it when people want to throw remarks at me, then they get upset when I give it back. If u can give it, then take it point blank. Why does everyone want to be cute. if she had stuck to the facts it would have been cool. the facts were simple. I arrived late and they had no number to contact me (or so they claim but they didn't call the house or my job, which is what they should have done) at his old school i would come home and their number would be on my caller id.) and I had no number to contact them. Someone from the school called me back after we hung up on each other and gave me the teacher's cellphone numbers. I shouldn't have their personal cellphone numbers. the school should leave the office open, or maybe it's just me.

just a little pissed

WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHATTTTT!!! :angry::angry: Oh Hell NO!!!! Are they for real!?!?!?! Dem lucky it was only you that was late!!! My aftercare center had 10 kids waiting when I got there 5 minutes before they normally close!!! The supervisor just laughed and said it's gonna be a late one b/c trains are stuck and the weather...blah blah blah!!

Not fuh nuttin', but unfortunately that is the career they chose to get into and yes days like yesterday do occur and they should expect that! In addition, your dyam right that they should have a staff cellphone number for you to call. God forbid something happens and the person's cell phone # you have doesn't work there anymore!

Mi Jengy yuh good...mi hope yuh LACE deh ooman! I WISH DEM WOULDDA DROP OFF YUH PICKNEY WITH THE COPS!!! That + no attempt to contact you first has LAWSUIT all over it!! Please tell deh dyam outta horder ooman DAT fuh mi next time!!!! She needs to check her penal codes!!!!

Ohhhhhh that makes me VEX!!!!! Is wah deh hell she tink yuh were doing...sipping Apple Martinis at deh bloodclaat 40/40 club and chillin!!!!!! B)

She mussi ave wan teleporting machine fi reach home...cause anyone dat step outside inna NYC yesterday would have known it was a slow-go commute home!!

SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPSSSSSSSSSS

SSSSS* serious dutty kissteet* Cha

Bless,

Gill

You have got to be kidding me. Call police fi wah. that's what you pay the extra fees for...for them to stay late. OMG I'm so upset now, that people are so (I'M JUST FRIGGIN SPEECHLESS) after reading that JENGLES...that just upsets me.
