What time is this? LA LA LA LAAAAAAAAAAAAA HUH? LALALALALA LAAAAAAAAAAAAA??? ARMY HAS BROUGHT THE CHOIR? It was still a bit dark in the bedroom 6:30 am It is praise the lord time OMG I did not remember about morning praise I forgot to put it on the planner! Whole house is opened up and all the family are singing praises and then readings from the bible --HELP I am not a very good morning person. Praise god thankyou for letting me be here please let me roll over for another few moments! Then my son came knocking on my door telling me the cats need feeding and his nana has given him some delicious tea that tasted like chocolate and marshmellows .It was MILO He ended up having 1 milo and two cups of tea.We are not tea drinkers back home so another novelty for him. I was trying to savour the moment and enjoy the day but my husband was going mad, he does not like having to control his behaviour and behave then he got woke up early by singing LOL and then he is saying I spent the money so I better replace it and organise some more NOW and he kept sayingit and saying it and moaning and grumbling about every single thing in the universe for most of the day.Everything in it’s own time though.. He is like that sometimes , infact most times, I had hoped along holiday would chill him out as I always do but my plan always fails I him.And I have given up trying, now I tend to shut my ears off or plug my ipod in! I can’t deal with negative grumbles from anyone else probably because I am surrounded by a cloud of grumbles on a daily basis from within my home!No one can grumble more than him so I can’t take even one grumble from anyone unless it is an absolute emergency as I get more than my fair share at home. So I cannot let it steal my joy and happiness and have to bust out of the grumble bubble! I called our niece who is my age , a Jamaican lady who is pregnant who the pushchair was for.She said she is up and ready and she soon come. She used to live here where I am staying now and we used to have lots of fun and late night chats and sleepovers and cooking sessions but now she hasher own little family and I miss her here. So 30 minutes later she arrived andwe caught up and she was pleased with the baby pram/pushchair . Husband was still grumbling he wanted water from the shop and other things which we did not need, tap water is fine here and it is not a home where you sit drinking beer and he is not much of a beer drinker anyway he was just finding something to grumble about so when my nieces time came when she had to leave he said he was going to get dropped off in town and asked did I want to go so I said no- you just go because we did not need to go and needed to be careful with money so he got mad again and said I should go so I thought great I will get dumped down there for unnecessary items then have to make my own way back CHO! So I jumped in and my niece got out with me in the town ,she didn’t have to but she is nice like that, heavily pregnant too, so I got a few basic items and I only had 2000j in my pocket and I needed 120j for taxi fare home so I added up the price of the contents of my shopping trolley carefully, then got to the till and realised I had not added tax dayamn that part always gets me I hate that.The price should be inclusive I am no good with percentages, just tell me a total.I cannot cope with adding all percentages allthe time on bills and shopping and hotel!Tell me the amount you want from me dammit! Hardly any other country adds it separately. So I realised I did not have enough money left for a patty which my son had requested so she gave me some money for two patties she is such a lovely person and it was probably her taxi fare home because I heard someone say they were going to come and pick her up.She would give her last dime to help.I said I would pay her back tomorrow as she was not coming back tothe house but was going out of town. My niece knows everyone in town she is so lovely all the drivers know her and know exactly where we want to go by saying a persons name not an address of their house , if you say you wanna go tictocs house for example and its 5 miles away every driver knows where that is, its cool!
And she takes everything in her stride and she is constantly on her mobile phone she must go through millions of phone cards!Always someone calling her to chat about something and everyone always waving to her and saying hi all the neighbours and shopworkers.She used to have a shop in the town but now has a new one out of town.She has always been an inspiration to me as she is a very good hearted person who will help wherever and whenever she can and she started with absolutely nothing and has become a strong independent woman now. The song nuttin 2 sometin comes to mind and it proves you can do whatever you set your mind too. She is not afraid of nothing or no-one and takes everything in her stride yet still manages to be nice to everyone and make things happen.
