Since the passage of Tropical Storm Noel last week, I haven't been blogging regularly because we didn't have power for two days. After power is restored, we usually get phone service back within a day. This time we have been without phone service for over a week. Our local phone company, Cable & Wireless, also known as Chaos & Wutless, has advised that they will "add me to the list". No estimated date for clearing the trouble, no commitment to come to the house to check anything...just a promise to "add me to the list".
I have been driving an hour thru the mountains into Mandeville to use a computer at an internet cafe to moderate and respond to shared thoughts and to post the blog. With the recent hike of the price of gas, I don't know how long I can afford that.
I am very grateful to those of you who stop by to visit and I am thrilled when you share your thoughts. Please come back soon, Loyal Reader.

Sistren Irie Diva,
Blessed love and thanks for continuing to stop by.
I am in Mandeville again, just to get this posted and send e-mails to the stateside family. If they see bad news on the foriegn media and can't hear from me, dem jus fret. An e-mail lets them know I'm OK.

Idren Owen,
I only live 24 miles out of Mandeville, in southeast St. Bess, but with the road conditions, it takes about an hour to get there. It takes even longer if I get caught behind the 18-wheel monsters on Spur Tree!
Many of us in this area are still suffering from Hurricane Ivan issues. YES, I said Ivan... not to mention the additional ravages of Dean & Noel.
But Jah love wi itinually and wi mus tek di bitter wid di sweet! No true?
Thanks for stopping by, and please come back soon.
Bless Up,
Lady Roots
