The BIG Apple

the morning started a little later than planned...it's called too much work/not enough sleep.
It didn't matter...the drive to the Big Apple went real speed with
lots of catching up to do!
Upon reaching our gps destination...a Grendadian neighbor who just moved to the states, we proceeded to visit them. A relative came to the door quite confused to see us. I  can only imagine the questions he was thinking. We stayed parked there so that way we could check them on the way back since they were not home! We ventured to the dingy subway and away we went to the city!

it.snowed.
really it was beautiful but far to cold!


We only went to Starbucks twice. One has to stay warm somehow if you are out in the cold too long!
...and gift cards always are a big plus

She's awesome like that!

Indoors became much better than the outdoors!

Ms. Dale and Crista were home when we drug our damp selves back to the car.
It was so good to see them again. Feeling quite inferior about this picture and my large self, I decided to post it anyway, comforted by the fact that I had four shirts on plus my coat yet! After our visit here we were off to Queens to visit some other lovely people! I'm thinking I should soon know my way around the city!

Flooded roads, wind, and detours were the joyful thing we had to travel home in. I am thankful it was not me that caused any detours and we arrived home safely!
It was a much needed get-away! The next one awaits me just now!

    This really looks like it was so much fun! I'm jealous that you are flying to the Caribbean soon. But I happy for you too.

When I Grow Up

Image
My kids love to sing. Right now for some reason they keep picking the song "When I Grow Up." The chorus goes: "When I grow up I wanna be just like you, so don't disappoint me I can see what you do. If you follow Jesus I will follow him too, so don't disappoint me, I can see what you do." Don't forbid little children to come unto Him For such is the kingdom of God, Always set an example that points out the way And do what the Lord has to say. Don't forget little children become big folks some day For what you see becomes what you do. If you walk with Jesus, I'll walk with Him too. So don't forget, I'm close behind you. I really like the song but when it's time for the chorus it gets me every time. Maybe it is those 12 hands and 60 fingers that are pointing my way. Today I pointed back at them and they had a few words to say as soon as the song finish! "Miss....WE ARE FOLLOWING YOU! You can't foll...

February

..here it is. It's hot, dry, and breezy. The month is almost halfway gone already. sigh. It's hard to believe it's been one whole year already that I've been married to this wonderful man. He truly is so extremely good for me. Marriage is a wonderful thing. It's good to have the first year behind us though. We look forward to many more! February 7 is Independence Day. The churches had a picnic and cooked the national dish. Kyla...or little Cindy as I call her. oil down...it was deliciously made by Sammy. A few wore their Independence colors!  Sailing festival was also held the other weekend on the beach. I was wishing so badly I had remembered my camera but alas phone pictures had to work! Sports Day is coming up for most schools. I went to Wesley College Sports day on Wednesday. It was good to see how secondary schools do it! I went in support of Alana's son Joshim. He didn't disapp...

of police and goodbyes

Image
It was the night before some people departed the states to the wonderful Isle of Spice. Who wouldn't stay out late? Well...I would..and I did. The regrets came in the morning with only 2 hours of sleep and off to work at an unearthly hour. I work when I can...even if it is only a few hours. I felt like I had to keep redoing things...my brain was malfunctioning. Coffee was needed but I didn't want to be the reason for potty breaks on the way to the airport...thus I refrained. I left work in my own little world oblivious to a police officer sitting nearby. I believe he was sleeping as well..much to my benefit. With suitcases packed on that Ford truck we began to "RUN IT"...traffic moves well most days. I try to keep with traffic. They can usually break radar for you. The SUV lost me when it got to about 25 over the speed limit. It was a good thing! There was enough of a gap between us that officer had his nose out in traffic as I tried to quickly change lanes. Sorry fo...
