Revelation

It feels as if my plug has been pulled and I've been powered down.  I cannot figure out what has occurred to make me feel really blue but the fact is that I am down in the dumps.  I want to sit quietly and be held closely.  The telephone ringing, the knock on the door, someone's music blaring so loudly that I can hear every word clearly and the bass notes take my heart out of its regular beat to synchronise with the deep, slow, heavy BOOM...BOOM.  The person asking me to make a decision is taxing my brain.  I cannot listen to one more tale of woe and physical pain.  There it goes again, the cell phone with the same person calling me for the 6th time in a row!  And now it is ringing again with another person whom I have told that I need space but nevertheless has called at least 10 times today and each time I have not answered.  I feel overwhelmed and actually a bit frightened by  all the noise that is coming at me, bombarding me, then without me making a conscious decision, my

Long Time, No Connect

Hi, Just a few of my thoughts written all over the place - on my laptop, my various sticks, company machine, bits of paper..and the beat goes on.  So take a read to find out where my head has been. Hello, It's been a while since I've written but boy o' boy I have been busy.  Finished my examinations for taught courses in mid-May and went straight into seeking a new place of abode.  After 26 years of calling 30, Rajnauth Street, my home, I've moved!  I feel that I can open a business moving homes.  It was a true test of project management skills especially handling the human factor.  Am still in Diego Martin in a much smaller place and I now live on a hill.  I am sure that I shall have "buns of steel" within three (3) months! I wish to take the time to wish all those potential fathers, fathers and grand-fathers a HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! ______________________________________________________________________________    Trinidad is hard!

Sunday Morning September 22, 2013

I'm praying for Trinidad and Tobago I'm praying for the Democratic Republic of Congo. I'm praying for Afghanistan. I'm praying for Syria. Now I'm praying for the hostages in Kenya! I'm tired of praying for fighting to stop Dear Father, I am praying for peace.

Hump Day Humour

It's Wednesday and it's hump day! Were at the top, the hump and it is a smooth slide down to Friday and the week-end.  I am so tired that I actually feel sick .  Looking forward to not having to set that alarm come Friday night!  Thought  I'd share another joke. Here's another one from my friend Kath, who said it was sent to her husband by one of his friends.  She is a true Trini - creative mind able to find the humour in everything.  So are you ready for a good belly laugh?  Here goes. I just took a leaflet out of my mailbox telling me I can have sex @ 75. I am so happy, because I live @ # 81, so its not too far to walk home afterwards. And, its on the same side as the road so I don't even have to cross the street. Bwaaah!  Ha! ha! haaah!  Phew!  :)) Until,

To Start The Day Just Right!

Morning, morning, Thanks have been given to God for a good night's rest and a good day at work with everything following His will, now it's time for a couple of laughs.  Opened FaceBook this morning and was greeted by this first one, which comes from my high school mate, Kathryn. Enjoy your day!  Don't forget to pass on the smiles.  Don't forget to share the jokes.  How do you do that?  Just share this page address!  :)) The Subject? "I FISH" After 35 years of marriage, a husband and wife came for counseling. When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a tirade listing every problem they had ever had in the years they had been married. On and on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and unlovable, an entire laundry list of unmet needs she had endured. Finally, after allowing this for a sufficient length of time, the therapist got up, walked around the desk and after asking the wife to stand, he embraced and kis

The New Normal

tonight for the first time in probably about 4 years I actually invited a friend out for a drink!  I was so happy when she consented because I do miss her company - all the fun and laughter we have together.  Life has not been easy for her over the past 4 years but it was good to know that she is cleaning up her act and will over time get over her financial difficulties.  Who would have known that in this period of life these challenges would come to greet us. Thank God for friendships! I went out and had a drink, actually I had two drinks and a some nice tapas.   I felt supreme,  to be able to treat a friend to a Friday lime.  Funny how a little thing can make my world so delightful.
