It is called poverty!

Friends, I have scored a major victory, thanks to the massive (33) company called Amazon.

The puss (14) used to come and mess up (32) the lawn, which is not the type of fertiliser I need to keep it green (16). The piece of equipment, which comes at a reasonable cost (25), gave off a sound which would scare even crows away. Now a nice, green lawn minus di puss mess. What a relief!

More Chiney (17) money coming fi build more roads. But mi really a wonder if a only the Chiney dem who a go get road contract inna Jamaica? What about the millions invested by other contractors in large equipment? It not looking so good at all. But let us see how far this one will be going on for.

A little drizzling (24) again this week, buy still not enough to make an impact. Please continue to pray for rain, my friends.

I saw a mom (7) and her baby (34) being pushed by a little girl (16 again) in a little (10) stroller yesterday. It is called poverty!

You walk good until.
