good works by German national - Sharleen - 02-02-2015

nice story about someone doing some good work. I definitely LONG to be in JA right now, the weather in NY has been pretty horrid, for sure I won't even be able to get to work today, still snowing hard, really long long driveway & no garage. Thankfully I work at a University with a really liberal policy of being able to not show up when the weather driving-wise is really bad.
So today I had my four year old grandaughter Emmie all day long. We call her "the divine Miss M" --she is absolutely beautiful with lovely blue eyes and long eyelashes. It is a great joy to be a grandparent. She is kind of a "bossie" kind of kid.... I was ordered around all day long. Plus she won't let our new puppy Pippa, a rescued puppy from Arkansas in the family room with her. So the puppy barks continuously in her absolutely awfully pitched bark.
I long to leave for Jamaica, like tomorrow.... I am totally sick of the COLD and SNOW and SHOVELLING and HAULING FIREWOOD into my house. I absolutely love where I live, a big plot of land & beautiful views but it definitely is horrendous in the winter here in upstate NY.

I'm in Manhattan now and it's "slushing" out there. Yes, "slushing". Harsh reality having been back from Jamaica for less than a week. Good thing I had a couple of days in my garden spot in Bodega where the sun was shining and the temps in the 70's before I had to come east.
What you describe is EXACTLY why I moved west 30 years ago.
