Good Evening ALL,

Well it seems to be a quiet day...I know its tuesday all day today....so I guess we all hope for THURSDAY!!!


Thanks CharlieD10 for the offer, I have taken you up on that one.

Until next time everyone...

Hey Can-Indy-Jam, yes it was a quiet day today! Hopefully there's a family somewhere that was reunited since it wasn't on this forum.

I am occupying myself watching a documentary on the Gambino crime family of New York, including the infamous John Gotti, LOL. Hubby had an early night tonight, he is not feeling so well, so I have to use TV to keep me company. I have a mango tree for sale if anyone is interested.

Chelley! Thank you! Aaaaargh! Its time to get a job at scotiabank and get a transfer to JA! Its looking like the only reasonable option! SMDH I guess Im supposed to apply for a Jamaican visitor, work & school visa for me, Canadian Visit visa for him and when all of that is refused, I may apply for TRV congugal? They are sick in their damn heads!!!

Good morning proper, jahlove and everyone!

Lovely morning outside and a lovely day for me, as hubby gets back his ON license with all his endorsements today. ;D Next time he comes to Jamaica, he will no longer be restricted because of needing to be driven anywhere...look out Jamaica, LOL!

Hope everyone enjoys their Hump Day, here's a little laugh for the day:

"Annoyed by the professor of anatomy who liked to tell "naughty" stories during class, a group of female students decided that the next time he started to tell one, they would all rise and leave the room in protest. The professor, however, got wind of their scheme just before class the following day, so he bided his time. Then, halfway through the lecture, he began. "They say there is quite a shortage of prostitutes in France." The girls looked at one another, arose and started for the door. "Young ladies," said the professor with a broad smile, "the next plane doesn't leave till tomorrow afternoon."

Let's hear it for KG! NEXT!

Good morning proper and forum family. Good one Charlie and sorry to hear Mr is feeling poorly. I keep checking Canda Post for some mangoes and nothin, absolutely nothin. We had friends over for dinner last night and as I was falling asleep I realized how much stronger our relationship is as compared to most other couples. Yeh we have some issues now and then but they are sorted out right away. I believe that although this is a painfully slow process, the same process builds you as a couple, not just spouses. You learn to communicate when you do not live together every day/night and that carries over when you get together. So, I guess I'm saying to enjoy the painful process while you can and grow your relationship as best as possible long distance.

Canuck! I put the mangoes in a box addressed to "The funny guy from western Canada"! Yuh mean it nuh reach??? ???

The Mr is about a week away from his next treatment, Canuck, so his body is acting out. It is hard on him to feel ill, like most men he is used to being active and doing for himself, so these times make him irritable with himself and everyone. Being this far away, there is nothing I can do except encourage him, and try not to take it personally when his usually sunny disposition goes cloudy, LOL.

And I agree that long distance relationships teach excellent communication skills if we use the time wisely. Since all we can do is talk, that is what we do, and we do it alot. It has taught me to judge my husband's moods and feelings from words on a screen, and I know some couples who can't read each other even when they have verbal and body language clues to help. Being long-distance also teaches patience, a vital skill in any relationship.

Canuck and Charlie these last statements are so very true. I have really come to appreciate the long distance relationship I share with my hubby. It has taught me patience, understanding and trust. I am able to tell my husbands tone, speech, gestures and written words whats what....if you know what I mean. I really come to appreciate alot about people in general especially going through this experience....the analogy I would use to compare to this to this long distance relationship is.....think of a blind person....when someone is blind all their other senses become enhanced to make up for the lost of sight. So when you are in a long distant relationship you cant get to be with your loved on physically so all your other senses(??) will come into play within the relationship.

 

[canuck0469]

ladyposh, that is a great analogy

 

[CharlieD10]

Excellent analogy, ladyposh!

Rain. And mangoes falling on the roof. Seriously...I am collecting donations towards the purchase of a chain saw.

 

[ladyposh]

These learned ways of ours which will have acquired during the time apart will make our relationships so much more stronger than other relationships....trust me when I say that....! this is why when we are finally together will our loved ones we have to know what battles to fight and which ones to let go because you have already gone through the storm with each other so there should be nothing out there that should be able to come between you

 

[Can-Indy-Jam]

That is so true...this process will not break you...at all.....

Good morning family, enjoy your day all.

NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
