Hello for the 3rd Time

[Just Erica]

Happy New Year and Happy (belated) Hanakkah (sp?).

I didn't come here to start trouble but I realized that I ran like a chicken away from this board because of other's opinions of me. So with this being the New Year and all, I thought it would be great for me to strengthen my backbone and participate in this forum again... but only this forum.

How has everyone been?

Welcome back.

No, I haven't Scriabin. Besides, no one is perfect, as I mentioned the last time.  (No sarcasm. I'm usually a great, cautious driver. I wish the accident never happened but I'm just glad that the motorist was okay.)

I was only kidding.  You could use a sense of humor, Erica.

I have one, I just don't apply it when terrible things like accidents occur. There's nothing funny about that, you know?

As you said, no one was hurt.

So long as no one is hurt, it is OK to have a sense of humor.

I'll just be cool about it... the motorist was forgiving and great to me. *Still some feelings of guilt left there for me...still wish I'd bought him a new uniform though.*

Good. My wife had twins. So that's pretty much all that's going on with me.

Thanks it is a boy and a girl.

I named the boy Yeshayahu and the girl Yemima. Which when anglicized become Isaiah and Jemima.

So I guess I have something in common with Erica now.

I'M ALSO BLACK.

Shorty, my babymomma gave me two kidz and I named them Isaiah and Jemima.

How much blacker can I be without actually putting on a du-rag?

Congratulations Judeanoncapta.

Congratulations Judeanoncapta.

Thanks.

They're actually four months old now.

I'm only writing about it to inform Erica as to what has been going on with me since she left.

I actually announced it on ASK JTF four months ago and Chaim was very happy for me.

Hi Erica,  Happy New Year to you.  I've been waiting for you to return    How are you?  How is your family?  Hope all is well.  BullCat3

Yes - I remember now - It's just when I hear about children being born  I can't help myself.  You are very lucky.  BC3

Right, Erica?

They have beautiful names, Judea. I don't think "ethnic names" when I read or hear them though. Your religion has many beautiful pronunciations of names even when translated into English. I find no fault or favor with either name. I'm glad YOU like the names though.

Don't do that. You don't like evil black culture, I get it (and have understood it for almost a year) but don't make jokes like that at the expense of your own kids. I'm no one's "Shorty". I don't come in here with the ebonic jargon, treat me like you'd treat anyone else here who would respectfully disagree with you IN ENGLISH.

[judeanoncapta]

A'ight.

Hi Erica,  Happy New Year to you.  I've been waiting for you to return    How are you?  How is your family?  Hope all is well.  BullCat3

Hi BullCat3. I'm doing great .  I am on the Dean's List at my school...maintaining a 3.50 GPA and will be graduating in September with my degree in Paraprofessional Education.  I'm sad that I won't be walking accross the stage to recieve my certificate though, as my husband will be deployed and I have to get my children ready for school...but I'd rather have a certificate in the mail than not have my children in school on time.

My husband and girls are all happy and healthy ...well the kids are happy for now. lol So so far, everything is lovely. How are you and yours?

[nessuno]

I'm glad to hear how well you are doing - 3.5 GPA and raising a family    I give you a lot of  credit.
Nothing is new on my end.  I just can't believe that it is mid January!
September will be here before you know it

All the credit belongs to G-d, truely. Sometimes I don't know how I was even awake to study as hard as I did but He and my husband made a way for me. Plus, it says something special when you do what we do (as moms and wives) and we don't go insane in the process.

And you're right about this month passing so quickly. In a couple of short weeks I'll be 34 years old. Man, my kids are getting OLD!

Peace to you, BullCat.

[nessuno]

Yes - if they would only stop aging...so would we
