I don't party much anymore, as age is catching up on me. However, I was invited to a party last week themed "NIGHT OF THE STARS" I must say it was very exciting.
I didn't have a male companion, and had to ask a girlfriend to accompany me. It felt so good to dressup again after a long time, and to experience the glitz and glamour. So as you can see for one night I let my hair down and just became a star.
I will however only leave this photo on for a day or so, I just wanted to show off a bit,,,,well to actually say, that I'm not too old to still show a bit of leg.
I grew up in a home where there was always singing,,,,,my dad would play his guitar and serenade to my mom. Dad was a big man, who did weight lifting to keep in shape.
He was a man of many talents,and could do just about anything with his hands. I remember how he used to carve toys out of wood for my brothers, cut beautiful pictures out of tin sheets and even a helicopter for my one brother.
His friends all took advantage of him, because he would build extentions onto their homes, do electical and plumbing work for them, free of charge.
The day he died, I wanted to die too,,,,,I thought "how can I live without my hero" but life goes on, and its 42 yrs already since his passing. His song that he used to sing so often " Have I told you lately that I love you" still lives on in my heart.
Thank you mr Nam for the inspiration!!!
I hope you will all share your memories!
Today I can see just how many wonderful friends I have here on CS. I would like to convey a most heartfelt THANK YOU to you all, for showing me just how much you care. To the Morons out there, who thinks I'm a scammer,,,,I don't hate you, and do you know why? Because I'm just me Val 53, a beautiful silly woman with a heart full of love, and I can't change I don't know how. If you perhaps think that I'm leaving then let me set the record straight,,,,THE VALLEY GIRL IS HERE TO StAY. So suck it up, because you might just be the scammer yourself,,, Thank you once again to all my wonderful friends,,,,I love you all!!!!!!!
And I can't change, I don't know how.I think I'm too honest and sensitive,,,,like my very dear friend told me yesterday, I put myself on the line with my feelings for all to see, in my blogs and my comments on other blogs, but I always speak from my heart, maybe its a bad thing here in cyber world, but hey I can't change. I'm just me, Val 53!,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, One thing I can say, I'm not lonely anymore, coz I have family and friends here on Cs. I have amazing friends here whom I just love to bits, and I know they care about me too. To one of my friends I can say, I have no regrets, and from now on I'm gona ride high. In not changing for nobody, I don't know how, coz I'm only me Val 53!,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and now I'm taking a long walk, see you all later, oh and the commas,,,well that's on purpose!!!!
How I miss you, but I know I only need to take that beautiful caostal journey by train to be in your arms,,,,,,,,,and you will be waiting, waiting with open arms to embrace me,,,,,,words won't be necessary, for you read my mind, words won't be twisted for you know how I feel.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I will stay in your embrace for hours, and listen to your. music,I will gaze into your ever changing eyes,,,,,one minute it will be green, the next blue and then a combination of the two, but its so good to be with you,,,,,,,,,my hair will be windblown, but you won't care! Coz you love me just the way I am,,,,,,,you will tell me to come to you, when I'm lonely, when I'm sad and when my heart is breaking and I know I don't need to hide my tears when I'm with you, oh how I love you,,,,,,,,,,,,,my special friend, my beautiful Fishhoek beach!!!!
Its times like these that I wish I had someone special in my life,,,just to hold me till the pain subsides.I am alone ( except for friends on CS) and needs to deal with it by myself. Its difficult to sleep at night, and the tears won't stop,,,,,but I knew it was coming, I just hoped time would pass more slowly. Now as I'm preparing to celebrate my son's birthday and his farewell all in one, I find it so difficult to handle....after spending 3 wonderful months with me he's going back home (Taiwan),,I spent my first mothers day with him in 10 years,,,,so now only the pictures and the memories remain!!!
I am sad to think that you can sit in judgement of me, and you know nothing about me at all. Am I a bad person because I decided to let my hair down a bit and have some fun on the blogs? Well my friend....that is called roleplay or acting..... And you know what? I enjoyed it. Let me give you a little insight into my life...... I was married for 28 years, and I had a happy marriage, unfortunately my husband passed on 12 years ago,,,,and do you know I have never been on a date with a man in all of the 12 years. I spent most of my life caring about other people, mostly seniors because they are almost always forgotten by their families. I have a heart full of love for other people and would go out of my way to help others,,,,,so am I a bad person because I have real feelings in a plastic world called CS???
3 weeks ago an old friend gave me an envelope,,,,,,,,,,,,I.Read what was written on it,,,,,,,,,,,oh my hat, it was the practice teacher I had in grade 6. I opened it and found a picture taken by him of our class, OMW I was 12 yrs old,,,,,,,,,,I looked so cute if I must say it myself. I called him to thank him for the picture and we had a nice conversation. He wanted to know about my kids, and I told him about my Taiwanese daughter inlaw, I said she's beautiful insidde and out, he replied,,,,just like you,,,, this man actually knew almost everything about my life.. To cut a long story short, he came to visit me this morningand it was so nice seeing him after 48 years!
It is so sad to find that all the guys I have been chatting to are scammers..........but I have joined a social network called "you're it...Pig busters".....http://www.youreittoday/scammer.php?scammerid=574288. You only need to punch in their email address and his scamming profile will show on the screen, or they will investigate and email the results to you.........it a scammer free social network.
