Here's one that is so old, but still applies to those who lost a love.. it helped me through a few rough times.
YouTube - ***Better Love - Dr Hook***
I can't believe all the songs I want to soak up tonight, and should be getting sleep. Oh, well, just a few more and then...
Stringer, here's one that you can let Marta hear... an old love song.
YouTube - Dr Hook years from now
Let me know how she liked it.
I LOVE that song! Funny story... I went to a Dr. Hook concert one time, and the whole band were so toked up and drunk, that they played two songs and left the stage. The guy with the patch felt so totally embarrassed that he sat by himself with a guitar and played for 3 hrs... it was FANTASTIC!
Here's an example Cher! I don't think the guy with the patch was so sober this night! LOL! WOW! I love this song though!
YouTube - Dr. Hook - Freakin' At The Freakers Ball
Oh, yeah, I remember them days... and I was not totally sober during the time either. It was when I split with my husband and had to raise my kid alone, with a few boyfriends now and then... Those were freaky days.Quote:

From the inner circle..
I wish we could've all had our 'inner circle' party years ago!! :D We would have had a blast I'm sure! Yep we would have! It's much fun to listen to all the old music. I do it all of the time, and I can usually remember where I was the first time I heard it too! A lot of good memories... some bad... but what the heck hey?
Here's a little change of venue Cher. I know you like country, and I just love the lyrics of this one! :D
YouTube - BILLY CYRUS WHERE AM I GOING TO LIVE WHEN I GET HOME
Absolutely, without the rough times,we wouldn't be who we are now.
I remember when I was entranced by BB King's Bass player in the 70's and made my fiancé jealous at a Santana concert because I sat way up, behind the band and loved every move that drummer made.. Ha ha, I still have my memories! Yuppers!
Even had a joint (didn't inhale)... with Ossie Osbourn sitting on one of the biggest speakers I ever saw when Black Sabbath played in our town and I left the group I went there with. That's when I was with a band myself, that I told you about.

And I was till a virgin when I got home.
Oops! I said we were going to go on a Crazy Train didn't I! Heeeerrre weeeee goooo!
SHAAARRROOONNNNN!!
YouTube - Crazy Train-Ozzy Osbourne
(If you had to have a joint with someone... may as well have been Ozzy! LOL!)
I'd love to hear more about your band days Cher!
HI Chery, thank you... yes that song says it all... :)Quote:

Marta has started back to college to finish. She had two years in Poland but not all her credits were accepted her in the US. So, she goes three days a week and on Monday nights... Good for her... don't you agree. Gota love her ambition... she wants that degree, but she isn't exactly sure what in as yet.
Marta is AWSOME!
Nice Stringer... so happy for her, and you. When a women gets what she wants, she is an angel for you men;)
Thanks Start, she is.:)Quote:

This is soooo weird! Cher and Stringy, I SWEAR when I first listened to this song on the link, "Years From Now" played, but after that it played "Sexy Eyes" too! Now it doesn't! I love both of those songs, so I clicked on the link to listen again! Now it's just "Years From Now"... what the..? :rolleyes:Quote:

"Better Love" goes right to "Sexy Eyes" You can't roast this Duck yet! :D
We're roasting the duck? When, where, how? Oh, not yet. Darnit. :(
Come to check up on my Momma C. How are you sweet Momma? I hope you've had a wonderful day, a wonderful night, everything wonderful. :)
I've been painting all day, again, and I think the fumes have gone to my head. Huh? Who? Oh, sorry, delusional. ;)
"Delusional" -Alty
Somehow, someway.. I should find a way to take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity... :0
But not now.. my eyes are closing... (_ _) only had 2 1/2 hours sleep last night... this business thing is taking it's toll...
UPDATE..
Got two more cards from you, darling Stringer - Millennium Park and the Sky View. You have such beautiful handwriting - it's a joy to read.
I'm glad you liked that song, it was one of my favorites a long time ago, and it was a joy finding it again. That memory train really takes me for some fun rides lately. I'm just such an emotional old lady.
It's never too late to go back to college. Jaime is going to go back next year and she has not chosen her final 'subject' yet either. She's great in financial fields, but she is still concentrating on her man and her son right now. He said he will give her his military scholarship when she's ready as he can transfer it over to 'family members' after they are married. He's in San Francisco right now, and it's the first time where he has been away where he wishes he was not. Usually in the past, he was glad to be gone (from former wife), but now he can't wait to get back home. I guess that says a lot for my girl... I'm so super proud of her.
Alty, I got the Bear and the Karl's postcards from you today. I just bet that Canada's Rocky Mountains are just a sight for all eyes to wonder. Honey, paint is a lot better than glue, so sniff right along - let me know where I can see the finished products.
Thanks again to both of you.
Starby, I too heard 'sexy eyes' at the end the first time.. so it must be a You-Tube glitch and not our 'puters'.
Had a scare today. I uninstalled a trial version of Windows One Care (security prog) and installed three freebies to take it's place. Well one of them was sooo strong that it wouldn't let me into the internet.. until I figured that out, it took a while, but it's sure is working. Found some that even One Care did not find and did a boot record and memory check. Pretty good for a freebie. So, after taking all that time to 'clean' my baby, I'm running late on a few other things today. Will take a nap, eat something, and then see if I can be of any help in the Relationship section.
Talk to you later, folks.
Grrrr.. the new antivirus and antispam progs just junked my smilies... so I got to get them back.
Beautiful Thread Alty..
Chery,
You are a wonderful woman.. what more can I say?:)
Hi Firm, how are you?:)Quote:

Firmy, I'm glad you found us. :)

Couldn't install my old smileys, so I guess 'WE' are going to try out some new ones. Too bad, because I really liked my 'grandma' smiley.
But life goes on and I will make due with what's available.. it might take me some time to find my favorites, so have patience with me.

Stringer,
I am doing well,thank you.. hope you are too:)
Chery,
I love your smilies... I can't seem to make myself put smilies in here on the Desk,it is so "you" & doesn't suit me posting it at all...
Most of the best smilies I have seen are ones you have posted here... some of the cutest & sweetest smilies.:D
Thank you!
.
I think that there may be one or two more coming Chery... time for the rest to go. I will send more in the next day or two...
Thanks for letting me know that you received them Chery.
Marta is loving it... she is really getting into it... some of the classes are requiring a lot of study time... but she's a smarteeeeee and she will do fine. She is always coming to me and telling me what they covered that day... I am proud of her too.
Stringer
EDIT: Thank you Firm... yes I (we) are doing fine...
Firmy! Nice to see you, at least for a moment.
Chery, I love hearing about you and your "free" time with your daughter and grandson;)
I think you know my story about my Dad and how he was/is my hero. From my personal experience with cancer, I have a "history" with the thing.
Every time you post, you touch my heart. Every time you give a little smiley, you make me smile. Every quote, every encouragement, every sarcastic comment, you inspire me. Chery, you, my dear, are priceless; a work of rare beauty.
I've often found myself fascinated by mosaic portraits and have come to the conclusion that it is because life is a mosaic. We are mosaic. Some of the most beautiful works of art are simply broken pieces of glass, pottery, wood, metal... in keeping with this, some of the most memorable people are those that are broken, put back together, simply holding on to life by the threads, and yet still walking, still singing, and still thriving.
You, Chery, don't simply survive... you thrive. You make every day, every post, every moment a chance to better your world and the world of those around you.
You are an inspiration to goodness, my favorite mosaic.
Much, much Chicky love from me just for you. :)
HEY!! Where do I send Tampa postcards!! :D
Here you go "J" ;)Quote:

Thanks, M! :)
Ooooh, tampa postcards, me too, me too! :)
Chery, I'm so glad you're getting the postcards and enjoying them. :)
You said you loved Anastasia Momma C. You told me that you liked sound tracks right before you said Anastasia, so now I'm not sure if you meant the movie or the singer Anastacia. Here's two 'songs 'o the day' anyway! Both nice! :D
YouTube - Disney Love - Keep Holding On
YouTube - Anastacia - One Day In Your Life
Did you receive mine C Momma? I hope they haven't lost it, that'd be so frustrating... :(
Nope, honey, not yet. Maybe it's on a slow boat to China first, it will eventually get here though, I'm sure. Will let you know as soon as it arrives.Quote:

Dearest Historian Chick.
Thank you so much for your wonderful words. I just love mosaics and used to do window-colors in tiffany style and give them to all my neighbors and family on holidays.
They still have them in their windows and I enjoy walking by and seeing that my time and effort was appreciated. Throughout all my time in elementary school when I was not allowed to partake in sports due to my fibromyalgia, I spent my time with my arts teacher who was such a wonderful person with a great imagination. She taught me how to do pictures in charcoal, pencil, and then oils, and mirages of all sorts, and I have loved all art since then. I even charcoaled a portrait of her and her new husband for her as a wedding gift. (She even invited me of all her students to her wedding). I guess she knew all along that I was abused at home and needed a role-model - and she was one of the best I remember. So, every time I was distressed, I escaped to art of any kind to confirm that there is beauty in life, no matter how hard it gets or how painful my hands felt afterwards - it was worth it. Now I do art on my computer by creating coloring books in PDF format and send them out. Unfortunately, all these are on my other computer and I have to burn them on CDs and ask my daughter to send copies when she has time because the books got too big to send via email. So she will have her work cut out for her as I will give her a lift of people to burn CD for - and naturally print them all out for Alexander to color. He'll never need a coloring book from any store and I hope he likes what his Oma left him as an inspiration.
Here I am, going on and on.. my medication is working on me and gets my mind remembering a lot of good times.
Yes, dear, I do thrive... but it's because of wonderful people like you and others on AMHD and the love of my little family. I am so grateful that I signed on to this site because it has helped me through many phases in these last years and I hope that I was able to help a few people too who took the time to read and get to know me.
And, I would just love to have a postcard from Tampa.. or anywhere for that matter, as long as it's from you, my friend.
Too bad I lost my original smileys program, but I'll try and make due with the one that is available now...
Thanks again, dear.. and talk to you later..

Starby, this one's for you. Just light a candle and I'll be there any time!
YouTube - Anastacia - You'll Never Be Alone
Sometimes I wish I could still drive. Can just imagine renting a Jaguar and going for a fast ride for the last time. I love the one I had for a year - too expensive to get repairs done on them though.
The, there is the one for the dude who didn't get the special package on his birthday...
YouTube - Anastacia - Why'd You Lie To Me
Gee. Maybe he walked into some boxing gloves (inside joke).
Love you!
http://content.sweetim.com/sim/cpie/...s/0002024A.gif
Hahahahahaha! ::dude walking out to check mail:: KABOOOOOOM!
Thanks Momma C!. you just made my week! :D :D
I'm going to light those green apple candles, and sit and burn an entire CD of Anastacia and think of you every time I feel stressed. I don't even need a match. Your heart will light those candles for me! Uhmmm, exactly how did you know that butterflies have a very special meaning to me? Thank you, I really needed that! Big Big Huge Hugs and Kisses for you!
It's too bad we couldn't pick up and go Thelma and Louise style in a Jag convertible, and just blast our music! ;)
Starby...
We 'three' can always imagine the fun we would have had.. every time we listen to the tunes we share and like. I did't know about the butterflies, but just let my stomach and heart pick something for you. Glad I still got that 'gut feeling' steering me in the right direction.
For tonight, I'll just... for a while. C.U. tomorrow!
http://content.sweetim.com/sim/cpie/...s/00020248.gif
G'nite Sweet Chery! Sweet sweet dreams, and restful sleep. I'll find you another good tune later! :D
Chery... Jaguar was purchased by Ford. It took them 4 years trying to turn it into a Taurus. It worked and they destroyed the Jaguar. Then they sold it... nice huh? So if you got a new one... it wouldn't be the same... so you didn't miss anything... :rolleyes:Quote:

HEY CHERY!! Marta and I found something VERY special yesterday for you!!
We will send it/them tomorrow or Friday...
Marta was so excited when she found them that she SHOUTED to me in the store, she was so loud that the other customers all looked at her... But she was right... this is PERFECT, JUST PERFECT FOR YOU!!
Can't wait until you get it/them... please let me know when it/they arrive... I will tell you exactly when we send it/them... (Opppps, I will have to insure it/them... he he...
(Stringer is proud of himself... but Marta gets the credit... )
