All of this used to mean a lot more to me than it does now. But it's not just the U.S.A. - this whole darned world is going to h*** in a bucket.
I had the pleasure of watching the POSTMAN again last night and in my opinion this movie and the Jeremiah series on TV would be good educational watching for any children today.
Unfortunately the world's leaders are going to bring it that far and I just hope that there will be enough books and other media that help survivors start over by learning basics of life and proper respect for others instead of letting other maniacs try to take over again and again and again... History repeats itself but oh how I wish the chains will eventually be broken and our little ones have a chance to make things better.
Love you Mag... you've opened many eyes - so don't go and close your's and don't close your mouth either - there are lot's who need to hear you.
HAPPY 4TH of JULY!
Smarty-pants... you know I wish we were geographically closer because there would be a lot of long nights talking and more...
Love,
Chery
Ohhh the Postman is my one favorite movies of all time. I have seen it time and again and always think it is the closest thing to truth than any other movie. It could happen and IS happening. I wish too that parents would let their kids watch good shows that teach us what we were once about. I let my older kids watch my fave war flicks, my fave history programs, especially the ones that teach good lessons or give really good info and let them finish the story in their own minds. My oldest gets it, my daughter 11 still asks many questions... Chery, ou are so right.
I agree Mag has opened not only my eyes, but I have to let it be known that what I know goes to my kids... and their friends, and their friends parents, whether it is ohhh guess what I heard from the crazy lady start, or if it is oh my gosh I have never thought about it like that... it trickles down, and Mag, I count on you sometimes for "new" stuff... so don't let us down;)
Chery, I can feel you and see you and I snuggled up in your little place, talking and laughing, hugging and crying... sharing life stories, kids and friends and family. I know we already have, but in my heart I know there is so much more.
Happy Fourth of July! Hugs!
Hi start.. thanks for helping me let Mag know how much he contributes. AND I think it's super that you let it trickle along too, as I do. I don't care if people think I'm nuts.. I talk to the kids in my neighborhood a lot and their parents don't mind (yet) - even if they did, at least we planted the seed (with Mag's help) to let kids know that the world has many curtains and all they have to do is keep the incentive to draw a few of them open to see what's behind
Being in a Relationships Expert, I read a lot of 'my only love', 'I want him/her back' and 'I'll never love again' - which is all part of human emotion and as such a valid malady. But many time I just want to say, hey - there are so many things going on in the world that you can exert your energy on to try and change things to make it better for everyone instead of just worrying about a 'broken heart' that you'll forget within a year.
What this site has done for me in that respect is beyond words. I am able to express myself, my fears, and hopes, and wish other's would be able to share and communicate their views and thoughts as we do here. If more people came here to see and share, there would probably be less people feeling alone in the world and start hooking up with others around them to gain strength and create their own little 'underground'. It's high time that those blinders most people wear get replaced with some common sense and initiative.
It's OK to want warmth, peace and happiness... but it's also important to look around and see reality and where one can help at least one hour a day... or there just might not be many days left to indulge in self-pity.
You reaching out and helping me even though you have your plate full, is an example and believe me, dear - it's helped me change and I appreciate and love you all the more for your support.
So, from one crazy lady to another - don't stop spreading the news and keep hoping that our 'younguns' have a future.
Love,
Chery

Speeking of crazy, I looked all over the place for the 'bilderbund' group in the german internet... DUMMY Me!
I went back to look at the clip from the 'new world order' and realized that it's the 'bilderberg group', so I googled in the german sites and found many clips in the german sponsored YouTube. I then sent the link to all my friends and relatives in Germany. I know it's not the nicest news to send them, but I thought it was time to wake them up a bit.
I wonder what their response will be.
Will let you know what they have to say, if anything.
http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_9_16.gif
Somebody has to do it, and who better than a crazy to open their eyes.
Hi again... to tell you what my family and othes have said... well, the kids can recognize truth, and they see possibility in everything... (sometimes when we don't think anything is possible) So the kids are cool with me spreading the word...
My husband thinks I am getting too much info already from the net, so any new info is pretty much a given that I have gone nuts. My dad and two brothers, well, Dad won't tell me that he hasn't watched the video(s) I have sent him and to say the least, he won't go into much detail unless he knows what he is talking about so he and I aren't really discussing anything about it. One brother says... "Start, it is about time you start thinking for your self, welcome to my kind of living"... my other brother says, "Start, now don't you go buying into all that crap"...
I think to myself, I have been buying into all sorts of crap in my 33 years of life, it is high time to stop, and if this is where I start to stop, then so be it!!
Chery, I think back before I got to know all of you great and vocal people, I am so happy I did. I am a better person here, and on the streets of my town because of all of you. Even the people I have never said hello to on a personal level, their stories conjur up something in me to make a difference. Some day, I will be able to come up with the right words to express my deepest gratitude to some of you here on the desk.
As I sit here and finish the left over potato salad, baked beans and thinned out burger... I am wishing you all a safe Fourth of July. I am pretty sure that if Mag doesn't come back, you and I will be the only ones left here to carry on...
(I almost feel like going to buy a truck load of spam) He would be proud;)
Magatory? You are killing me... GIT yer ole buns back here and tell me something I don't know already!
Chery, hi baby!
Hi Start.. I have no idea where Mag is hiding, and I too hope he makes an appearance soon. I checked the last time he posted and that was like on the 8th of July on another thread.
You are not the only one who started getting involved in such issues dear. I don't get out much and when I do, it's usually near mostly german-speaking folks - so I avoid political or religious conversations because my way and thier's of thinking are not the same. So, I go and talk about stupid daily stuff that does not offend anyone and go home feeling as if I wasted prescious time with blinger-wearing individuals who want to blame any other country but their own for their plight. It makes me sick and I will not stress myself out over these ignorant individuals any more... I'm sure you feel the same way sometimes.
Well, honey, if Mag does not come back, there are other threads where you and I will surely meet and have serious or even flighty chats in... as I too am so glad that we met and can talk to each other and the rest of the good people here.
C.U. on the forum.
http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_9_16.gif
Awww, we are a lot alike. Cept lately, I don't keep my mouth shut as much. I think I may need my Jaw screwed shut! ;)
I want to tell you, I am going to be gone for vacation for a week. I am bringing my puter, but mostly for pictures on it to show all of the family I get to see from Alaska! We don't get the net where we are going... at least not at the speed I am used to and I could have a heart attack waiting for a page to load... so... hugs and love to all who read this .
PS.
Captain, I am pulling the trailer all by myself with the kids... 6 hours. I will be calling you if I need help with my flat tire. Heehee (you better show before people get worried about you more than they already are);)
Have a great vacation hon! Gosh, with you and my daughter having vacations at the same time, I'll really miss you!
So, enjoy.. and tell us all about it when you get back.
http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_6_1.gifhttp://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_6_8.gif
Included a map so you won't get lost..
Awww, thanks Chery. I am on for the last time, I leave at 6:30 am tomorrow. I am a bit nervous, but sure it will be great fun! ;)
Thanks for the map I am sure I will need it!
HI... Chery, how are you love?
Mag... gosh:(
Hi honey, how have you been doing?
Wonder where Mag is... I miss him and worry about him as a brother and just wish he'd give us a sign.
Have not spent much time in Bunny Binky Room or Central Park as I have not had much energy lately, so used most of time in the relationships section when I could.
Waiting to get approval for my oxygen unit so that I can go outside for more than half an hour to spend with Alexander. Made a few little movies of him with my handy and am trying to create a CD with them to play in CD/DVD player on TV - which takes a little work. But it's something that I need to do so that he has visual memories of him and me playing together.
There seem to be just so many things I want to do with not enough time and it's hard to prioritize sometimes.
C.U. later on the forum, or email, dear. Hope your weekend was good.
Love,
Cher.
http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_3_16.gifhttp://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_1_67.gif
Ohhhhh, I am so glad to hear from you. I was gone for almost two weeks for vacation. I know what you are saying, I will want to make as many CD's as I could so he could have great memories. (you too;))
Chery, Grandma is 91 and she had turned ill just this last two weeks, we thought we'd lost her there for a bit, but she came back as strong as she could get from almost being on life support. I just couldn't handle myself, I was on vacation when I got the news. I half knew that something was wrong before I left, but failed to mention it to anyone around me. That woman is probably the one reason I keep my open and happy heart, she taught me how to love even when someone doesn't deserve it, she taught me so many more things as well. My fave motto from now on is "have a happy heart"
Chery, you have a happy heart, I see it not only in your writing or advice or your jokes, but in the pictures you ahvae posted. I love you. Everyone will always know that!;) Hug and love
So sorry to hear that Start.. that is tough. I know because my grandmom passed away July 27th, the day after her birthday and the day before mine. IT is so hard losing someone that is so amazing and special. I hope everything with your Grandma goes OK and she is feeling better. Mine went in the hospital for the flu and just got worse and worse. I went up to Philly with the kids for the viewing and the funeral. It was tough. I am glad you didn't go through the same thing. I wish the best for you and your family and I am praying for her too.
Hello to everyone. Hope all is well.
First I have to say... HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Hugs and lots a love to you Shattered! I know it's hard, I am so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how hard it was and probably still is. I am here for you sweet love!
Hi Shattered. So sorry for your loss, dear... my view on this is that she is in a better place with no more earthly stress or physical pain. And, you still have her in your heart for always. The Scotts and Irish have always impressed me in the way they celebrate passing on to the other plane instead of mourning their personal loss they are happy for those who no longer suffer. When my aunt passed away, I cried - but not for her because she was no longer suffering. I cried for her family - that's just the way I am though, and you know me, unconventional to the last.
Belated Happy B-Day hon, and hope you had a wonderful time that day and I also hope that you and your family are as content as you possibly can be and that your sister's life has found some 'order' to it.
Start my dear, sorry that you had that shock and hope things are better now. Just remember that you have those who need you around and that they will give you comfort and perspective every time you look into their eyes. The way they see your eyes and heart leaves a lasting impression - and that's is what you have control over - remember that. This is unconventional Chery talking and I hope you get my message.
What I see in my daughter's eyes at times is understandable, but I do my best to brighten them and to get her to see and remember the joy she is giving me every minute I spend with her and my grandson. I strive to hear her giggles and to see Alex's eyes brighten up when he sees me - these are things that keep me going even as my own energy waxes and wanes - I'm grateful that I still have control over those joyful moments with them.
Life is too short so we do need to try and make it as qualitative as possible whenever we can.
I'm going to try and include a short film here, hope it works... Oh, well, it's an mpeg4 file, and invalid, so I'll see if I can send it via email sometime later.
Until next time, lot of hugs and love.
Thank you Chery. I got your message.
And every giggle your daughter and Alex giggle, you hear it and hear it well. It is all the better when you hear it and they don't even know it. I love listening to the kids giggle when they think no one is listening... it means its mine, my moment that only I captured at that very moment in time!
I think when I looked into grandmas eyes while she was "out of it" she saw my tears and worry, I just tried and tried to hide it, but I couldn't. Some days are better than others, and I see her sometimes two times a day for little trips, or once for a long hours on end visit. Just wanting to give her the rest she needs to get better. She sees how much more relaxed I am now to see her coming along and when she has bad days, I remind her of her happy heart and the one she gives me;)
Thanks Chery...
Ohhhh, if anything will bring Mag back, it is me believing they have found BIG FOOT! Set me straight Magatory, tell me we will still have to wonder!! I hate it when they find this stuff, that means no more questioning whether it is real or not, it takes away all the fun... AND when I am sitting outside, all I can think about is BIG FOOT coming out of my forrest and telling me he wants my marshmallow off my stick!
Well it sure got me back ;)
How you ladies doing... I would say you, but it appears mags has been MIA longer than me!
Big Foot... mags come on help me out here!. silly start, they willl never find him, lol

It tickled me - some people have the talent to really tell it like it is.
http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_9_16.gif
Wow, I suppose they do have that talent. Haha
Hey there Chery! That was hilarious!!
How you feeling babe? I heard you took a turn for the bad... I am so sorry to hear that. Hopefully you have lots of hands over there rubbing your feet and cleaning your house :)
Hey... what about me? I like those things toooooo...
Hey, maybe if you would sit still for more than 3 seconds... then I could catch you LOL
EDIT::: Happy Birthday Jetty!!
We are just about ready to go to the pool everyone should be here soon, and then my time on here is over till Tuesday... LOL
The Beavers (college football) play tonight and then the Ducks on Saturday, we of course have to have a big ole BBQ for those of us with out tickets this year.
RP, you know me all too well, I can't sit here forever... I have things to do in between my free time here. Gosh! Ok, off to the party soon, how is you with all those kids romping around?
They are gone! Woo Hoo... not to be mean, but I was so glad to see their mama home yesterday. She seems to feel better, but we'll see... time will tell, I guess.
You enjoy the BBQ and splashes! See you in a few.
K... and RP, that doesn't sound mean, I understand completely! You guys did wonders for me when we had the "extra" kids around... I love you all for it!
You will be my first stop, you know that love...
This place is going bonkers, my posts are disappearing!
Oh,Oh rp, you got me started...Quote:

They did however manage to sniff around my perfumes, throw away things that they had no right to (or stole them) even though I told them not to throw anything away without asking me first they carried out a trashbag and when I insisted in looking into it, they got nasty. I told them that I was not a child, or mental patient and that they would not feel too happy if someone went to their home and did the same trick they did with me and then get snappy. These two witches with a capital B will never enter my home again. I called their boss and demanded my missing articles back and an apology - which I have not gotten either yet. I will take this further up the ladder as I took pictures and will have another ashtray in my bathroom. If they want to keep their job, they better call me and apologize soon too.
Then, yesterday, I went for my first visit to the Oncologist for the 'non-radioactive' infusion - well they lied to me and I went off - I told them that I did not want chemo but the doc promised that this would only attack the bad cells and leave the healthy ones alone --- right ---.
After attempting to find a large enough vain to stick into, (because it needed three bottles, one to 'relax me' and then one a steroid, and the last 'little' one with the radioactive sticker). Well after the second bottle my arm got swollen - the liquid backed up and I did not feel it and was busy trusting them and watching a movie. Oh well, then they had to try sticking in the hand on my other extremity. Good thing this was only a little bottle because after it was empty, this area also swelled up. Now these have reduced their bumps and have wonderful new colors though. And I have to go through this two more times in three-week intervals. I hope they can find enough veins and pay more attention next time. So, now I also have migraines and heartburn to add to my other little unimportant ouches, but the doc said it's important to try because of the metastasis of 6 new scouts. Since I'm allergic to morphium, it's hard to find medication that helps but not mess up my mind. I need to have a clear head or nothing will be worth it anymore. So, it's try this, try that, and frustration sets in.
So, with pain from my degenerative spine, arthrosis in the coxcix(sp) (end tail of spine which radiates pain down both legs), pain from the tumor in my back on the right side - and down the right arm, migraines, etc... there's not much left on me that does not hurt, I just would not feel right without any pain at all - can't wait to sleep a total amount of 3 hours within 24 - and still keep going. Now I need to be able to find a way to afford this super wig I found for when my hair falls out.
That's me, I'm a fighter and hang on tight to the times when I can sit up and play on my PC and also go out and play with my kids.. so life does go on - no matter what, and I'm not the only one with such problems - as my forum family also has their trials and sufferings. That's why I'm glad to be here and receive as well as give support whenever we all can - proves that we are humans who also care for others too.
But, I'm not complaining, just venting, and I will stay strong and not give up because those smiles and hugs I get from my grandson are the greatest incentive and I don't want to miss a moment of them. And I can't leave you guys on your own either, I love this site and my forum family and want to be here for as long as I can to help, cheer, and even get a few of you miffed off. You wonderful folks are my life-line to the rest of the world and I will not let anything get in the way, yet.
So, my dear, you did ask... now you know - the rest of the current story--
C.U. on the forum later after a bit of rest. I certainly hope your week was a little better than mine. My daughter is going to BBQ for me on Saturday - I love BBQ anything, even eggplant and bell peppers taste better off the grill.
Have a super weekend.
http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/8/8_4_145.gif
Chery... I bet your weenis doesn't hurt? A little humor? I love you
That's true babe, it and my big toe on left foot are about the only things right now though. So, I have something to be happy about (body-wise).Quote:

Check this out.. Maxine has a way with her, don't she? The young ladies think it's super funny to laugh at us oldies, but they will get their turn when gravity hits them, ha ha ha...
C.U. later.
Hee hee... I want to jiggle...
Chery: I could just strangle those two for taking advantage of our sweet Chery!! How dare they? And no word from the company either? What is THAT about? If I were there, I would come clean for you... at no charge :) Hopefully these risks of meds will help... in the long run of course. Guess this is the no pain, no gain you hear about, huh?
We will never do without you here, your words stay forever! So, when you feel bad... don't push yourself to far! Please get your rest when needed... we want you around for a lot longer woman! :D ;)
Start: Wish I had the butt to wave too :D :eek:
Obviously, I clicked on it... and now I wasted 10 seconds of my life. Thanks a lot
