I've been following the news on hurricane Ivan's passing through Grenada. Not good news at all. The Prime Minister's house was flattened and widespread property damage. Our prayers are with the Grenadians. We have two members from Grenada and we hope to hear good news from them soon :eusa_pray

Hey girl!!! Glad to see you back. Just keep on holding on till the lights return. you were joking about them coming on next year right? Hope so.
Can't you sneak and see your man in the day before curfew? Hope all works out well. Glad to see you again. :D

Good to hear from you Babyjay. I don't even know what to say, doing without electricity for so long is very hard I can only imagine. We were out of it for about a week and it was rough, so for you to be out of it even now without a clear sign of when it will return ... :icon_frow. Anyway, hang and drop by whenever you can to update us.

Sup y'all :) It's been said that not until nxt yr Feb. or so the entire country will have electricity (I kno your mouth's open cocoa, close it, lol). There are certain parts of the country that already have electricity (good for them), I jus can't wait til they reach up at my place, altho that'll take a long time.
Anyway, Cocoa, I can't sneak to see my man cause he works for the entire day. I did see him yesterday tho and because of the way things r right now, things ain't goin too well between us :( but I'll b aight.
Sup Chico? Where Greatis at ya'll :icon_ques

Hey Babyjay...I was passing through your area yesterday. You right gurl, you ain't seeing electricity up there for a while. I see one pole hanging over the road..how them truck passing :icon_ques. Good news is that in Woburn, we getting electricity very soon. Those foreigners worked in that area so fast, the whole place wired up. (That wat happens when you live in a drug vilage :D) Actually the foreigners were sent to work in the L'anx aux Epines and True Blue, those rich men areas and they refused to help the rich so we getting current ;)
Hope you and your guy make up soon. He too busy doing construction in the day for the next 3 years :icon_eek: plus curfew still on cause three dangerous thugs on the loose.
Maybe you and the guy can make it all up on weekends
