Hello my peeps. What's up with y'all!? What a way our Jamaican athletes made us proud in Beijing, eeh!

I didn't watch all the races, but my ears didn't rest any as my uncle is a sports fan and a real patriot. So driving to country with him and my aunt was like I was watching it live.

I always think that communication is one of or probably the most effective tool in any relationship, and my uncle and auntie proved just how right I was the other day.

I really never thought one day I would be talking about my family here, but this reason right here is why.

NHT points

After the races were done, my uncle started telling his wife, "Yuh know, Babes (her name really is that lol), mi have a girlfriend yuh see and mi an har a hol' a reasoning an she a tell me say she and her man a buy a house and a use them NHT points. She have, $2.5 mil and the man have $4.5, so because a dat, him nuh want her name pon di title. What yuh think bout that?"

Instantly, I answered, "That man have a plan and it doesn't include her!"

"Yeah I agree. That man sound up to no good," Aunty added.

My uncle continued, "Now, a nuh dat bex me. Is when she say the man carry paper come give har to sign over har points to him and she sign it. Is dat get me mad!"

Me: "KMT. You not serious! She nuh so fool!"

Uncle: "Then nuh dat mi a say. Mi say to har say, 'Is where dem get yuh? Yuh a man ketteh?! How yuh fi do sumn like that?! Yuh want part a yuh mash up cause clearly, if the man nuh want yuh name pon the title, dat must tell yuh something'."

My aunty and I were sitting in the back of the vehicle dumbstruck. What had me, though, was the way my uncle was upset at how dumb this woman was being. No wonder he had been married since 1981! (Long before I was born and still going strong).

Was furious

Now, this woman, she has three or four kids and none of them belong to that man. Yet, she just sign over her only chance to own a house to him? Can you imagine this crap?! That's some love! Likkle bit too trang (strong) for me! Absolutely nothing wrong with building a house with your spouse but from the moment both names can't go on the title, RUN!! I was furious because to me, that's not a good man.

Vehicle rocked

Even though he could be looking at it like, "Okay. She has no kids for me (yet). My money nuffa than fi har. Later on she and har kids may want to put me out!" I'm just saying.

"John, why yuh never go over dah pot hole deh?" Aunty gave out as the vehicle rocked from side to side! "Hush yuh mouth! A yuh a drive?" Uncle rebutted. "I think I could go over, but it couldn't mek so mi drop een deh. Stay a back and take drive and hush up!"

I was LMAO!

She wasn't finished either: "What yah talk bout John? I'm a very good backseat driver."

They went on and on from one convo to the next, and I just sat there and soaked it all in wondering if my future husband and I would tease each other and share laughs even when we were old and grey!

Take care yah, people. Always try to be smart in whatever decision you make. Don't sell yourself short. Live good in harmony! Bless up!
