Here Chery... I will be making zuccini bread tomorrow... ;)
Your story about your new friend reminded me of something... not as scary as cancer... but I got to share it with you. (Oh, and good for you to shine down through the clouds for this girl... GOOD FOR BOTH OF YOU:)) I was at BestBuy... in the Geek Squad line, my puter crashed and it needed to be fixed, so I stood there in line, a few minutes passed and a girl came in and sat in one of the chairs available... (the lines are really long sometimes or the wait for just one person could make sore feet) Any way, she was sitting there and all of a sudden, her face was in her hands and she was crying. I couldn't help but to tell the guy "just a sec" when he motioned me to come up to the counter... I went to the girl and it turned out (after letting person after person go in front of me in my spot LOL) it turned out she lost every single thing on her computer, she didn't save her College homework to her disk, she just trusted her computer to be good... she lost it all, everything she had done for the year. That was devastating enough, she still needed to pay to get her puter fixed and she just couldn't believe it all, it hit her and it hit her hard right there... But, with my tissues in hand and my hand on her leg rubbing it to give her some comfort, she started smiling, knowing she could prevail. I hugged her and we left each other. I just know that if I was crying, I would like to have someone just come up and tell me that they care... we need that as human beings, we need to know that we care about each other. I care about you Chery and what you do to my heart is unexplained... I don't really think you need an explanation anyway, you know what love is and you know what it isn't. Lots of soft hugs, and I will get you that bread one way or another;) |

Alty my darling, send me a picture of your mom so that I can recognize her when my time has come. We will both share a lot of quality, painless, time together, I'm sure. The hard part is the ones we leave behind. I worry about their future and not being able to be there for them. In the material sense, I know Jaime will be OK because her man is well off and will inherit a lot of land from his parents, but there is nothing we can do about how this entire world is changing and what the future has in store - that scares me a lot.
Now is the time, more than ever before in the past years, for families to reassess their values and importance of loving and nurturing their children, and unfortunately I see so many families just splitting up and 'doing their own thing' while neglecting the basic family ties that should be there. You all have given me more strength and innovation to keep going and spreading the message of this most important asset - family and love for your fellow human beings - just reaching out without ulterior motives other than sharing comfort if nothing else. You, my darling have such a big heart and deserve the love and caring back two-fold. Startover - boy my miss you message really got to you on that special 'wave' we have that reaches across the ocean. Can't wait for that bread of yours. It comforts me to know that we still don't need many words between us to communicate as our friendship is still as strong as it will ever be. Hope you and the kids are doing fine and hope you will update me sometime soon. Friend, I'm glad that Alexander does not have a cat allergy because Manx now has a special place on the pillow with Larry and me. I thought of getting a bigger pillow, but the one I have is just right - softness on both sides and lots of purring - what more can an old gal like me ask for. When Larry has his arm around me, his paw is on Manx, and he does not extend his claws, so that tells you a lot. Well, it's 6 AM here, and I've been up all night (again). So, now I'm going to get some rest, wait for delivery of my new pen-point (for my graphic tablet pen) so that I can 'play' with my graphic program and work on some pictures for the puzzles. WACOM is a great company but their 'parts' cost a lot. I ordered the pen points (5 in a pack) they cost 10 Euro, well after ordering, paying tax, shipping and handling, they wind up costing 22.99 Euro - what a difference. I want to get a new one soon, the Bamboo One Model from the same company - they have the best graphic tablets and I already told my uncle to get his grandkids a tablet and two pens for Christmas - they were just so surprised to use something more accurate and easier than a computer mouse. Once you've tried one, you'll never want to see a mouse again. OK, as I said before, time for some rest.. TTFN,  |

Try this, I went a little further, but not a member, only got this putting practice screen. I like MiniGolf.. don't have to walk too far and more colorful. Had a great time when bored at midnight in California, went to the minigolf place and had some fun with all the pretty lights. Yup, still a kid at heart.  |

Just in case it didn't get through to the entire world yet, I am now again a proud Mother-In-Law!
On Monday, 29 September 2008, Alexander's Mom and Dad were married by his Grandfather in Missouri, on the terrace of their home. I guess there is an advantage in having a Preacher in the family. Naturally, I will let you all know more, and post pictures once I get them. I dreamed and it was also confirmed that Alexander had a great time driving a golf cart around his grandfather's property - making everyone dizzy, but not bad for a two-year old - that's my boy! Ironic, but after being nervous and anxious to see them again for almost a week, I have a new cold with fever and will probably be flat on my *ss this weekend - wouldn't you know it.... Oh, well, stuff happens. I am just so relieved that they all made it back safe. Now it's paperwork time, getting all their IDs and other documents changed - and it's back to work on Monday. So, now that my worries in that department are over, I think I might be able to get some rest for a few hours. TTFN,   |

OK, here's the rant first.
Yesterday and today, I spent all the time 'fixing' my laptop with Vist from a crash... naturally, I lost all my pictures, film clips, dictionaries, and had to reinstall most of my games (which I had already maxed and now have to start all over again from the beginning. After that, it decided to upload over a million updates for Vista, the computer software manufacturer (those apps which I uninstalled wound up back on and I had to try and get rid of them again (and of course, now some are so stubborn that I don't have the 'admin rights' to delete or uninstall them). So, I will leave them on, zip them in their folders (if I can) and let my daughter worry about them when it's her laptop. Until then, I will put up with the crap, use my own software and try and find the pictures in the emails that I sent out, and hope I get them back (I forgot to copy the last two months on a CD, which I normally never ever forget to do) So, here's a lesson folks - always copy your most prescious pictures and other things onto a CD at least once a week or you might wind up not having them again. I just hope that I can get what Jaime has on her computer so that I can complete the slide-show I wanted to do. Shucks, I even lost all the Maxine pictures I saved, and the ones of Stringer and his wife, and the one with the make-up... That mad me so mad! Then I tried the freeware PC Tools Antivirus program and it stops working sometimes for some reason, so I have to find another free one, maybe Zone Alarm Internet Security , and hope it won't get rid of my smileys on my Internet Explorer. My Firefox already 'updated' itself without my permission and the first thing it did was get rid of my smileys.. what a pain. Now, for the good news.. I am happy that my little family is back, and my grandson stopped by today to see me - he smiled and hugged me first thing, and then wanted to stay with me, but with this new cold and pain from sitting up all night, I just didn't have the energy. I will see him again for a few hours tomorrow. And naturally, I want to hear all about his trip and driving the golf-cart. Jaime said it took him a while to get 'comfy' with his grandparents but they were patient and they just love him and his mom so much they did not want them to leave. Also, Stringer, my dear.. all those wonderful music-cards and other cards with the pictures of you and Marta on them came all at once this morning! The postman had to ring my bell because he could not put them in my mailbox - and I am glad so that none of them got bent! Thank you ever so much you two sweet darlings! You cannot imagine how that faucet of mine just leaked and leaked with happiness - and when Jaime saw them, she turned her faucet on too. Alex was wondering whey we were both crying and still sounding happy - I guess that's something he still has to learn. I had to explain to Jaime what you meant by 'make-up' - then she really laughed and wants to see the picture, so I told her to link on and look for herself. I have always used graphic tablets and pens instead of a mouse, as it is easier for me to work with them and make my coloring books and the best ones are from WACOM - believe me, there are no better! (I'm an expert on those little peripherals) I wish I could get the new Bamboo One tablet and pen, but will have to do with my Grahire 3. Well, as I probably mentioned before, I had to purchase new tips for my pen, and while doing so I discovered a new graphic program that I want more than anything, even though I have Paintshop Pro 9 - which is one of the best on the market. But this little thing (ArtRage) I saw on the Wacom Site was super! It lets you create oil paintings, with glitter and many, many other features, with tutorials - it is even being used by professional artists (as I have noticed while reading the reviews and looking at the forums)who then make flash films with the pictures they did. I told my daughter that I wanted this as an early Christmas gift (since it's going to be her's and Alex's eventually) I cannot wait until she orders it (my credit card is limited to purchases in Germany- since I am a retired person now - with a limit) - and I want her to get the CD too, in case of computer crashes again. Now that I'm up and running again, naturally, the first place I came to was here and I will check my mail in a little while. I just wanted to let you all know that I am still here, and doing OK, except for the frustrations which will pass. I know this is a long one, but I've been kind of gone for a while, and had a lot to convey to my friends, so I hope I didn't bore you too much. I love the cards, Stringer. You and Marta look so beautiful together - and she's just got the loveliest features when she smiles. So do you, but they are 'manly' honest. Your voice fits you and so does your super handwriting - you are an individual who is happy and stable in life - at least that's what your handwriting tells me - and I wish you happiness, peace and stability for the rest of your lives, my wonderful friends - you well deserve it. And yes, it's too bad that we live so far apart, but this site gave me that chance to get to know so many wonderful people and at this point in my life - you are all a godsend! So, before my faucet leaks again, I'm quiting for now and going to check some email. Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. Thinking about all of you, with many hugs, your Chery.

Hi'ya Momma C! Don't you ever think for a minute that you could bore us! I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that we LOVE reading everything that you write. So sorry that your computer is being such a pain. I can try and track down the Maxine ones again for you if you'd like. I'm sure I've still got them on here somewhere. I should actually make a special Maxine file, so I can easily find them. I'm so glad the kids are back home with you now, and that you can visit again. I'm looking forward to hearing about little Alex's stories about his rides on the golf cart. It's great that you are going to be getting your early C'mas gift from Jaime. I'm not sure I know what you're talking about, but whatever it is, it sounds like fun! Maybe you can give Stringy a new makeup job with sparkles? LOL! Batman went AWOL on us and we can't find him! We had to hold down the fort! We behaved ourselves though. We played a few tricks on Stwingy, but he's a big boy, he can handle it! :D He doesn't know about the itching powder we put in his shorts yet... shhhhh! ;) |
