Hi everyone

I would like to have your opinion...

Imagine you accepted someone to live with you in your house. let her/him sleep in your guest room, you feed her/him, let her/him become part of your family and society and in return she talks bad about you, criticize you, calling your daughter as a f*cking insane and acting simply she knows better than you -as the owner of the house and the family- how to manage your house hold !!

Will you let her… ??

My special thoughts and prayers for a special lady who's going through double mastectomy right now...and victory for everyone who's battling against cancer.

5 or 6 yrs old


9 yrs old


15 yrs old



..and then 49...

When I look back at old photos..I don't have many...Ive forgotten to much more than I can remember..good times...bad times...but in general I have a good life and better than most..and that Im thankful for and will always appreciate.

in life not everything can be achieved,but keep fighting for a beautiful goal

I'm not going to elaborate what an unpleasant and irritating experience it is to be around pretentious people.

The worst part is that they think you believe their charade.

Well do you know how to say it without being too obnoxious that you know they are liars?

Note: I personally cut off those kinds of people. Avoid them like plague. No explanation or inviting a pose for apologies.

We're going to attend a wedding in Hawaii and it's a family thing. Now I heard from my cousin whose the bride's mother that this person whom I can't stand around me is also a god mother meaning we'll be in the same table, etc etc.

(She once asked my children why we've become cold with them but she clamped and said nothing, acted innocent and being polite). I'm actually thinking of either tell her about her lies or cancel my attendance, either one is a difficult decision.

What would you do?

Thanks all for your read or comments.

.... and his plugs for respect for our elders/ancestors..
I began to like this guy, when I read that he used his leather bound I Ching so much, that he had to replace it several times.
Culturally time period stipulated advice, sure enough. But doubt he would turn his parents in to the authorities on the basis of politics, or anything else. But who really knows?

I don't normally write about my personal life but today was my daughters graduation and I'm feel so proud about her I want to shout it out to the world. My little devil is growing so quickly. She will now be studying aboard and I will miss her but mums always do what is best for their kids..

Suspicious Deaths Update Lothian

On Monday, October 5, 2015 at approximately 12:56 p.m.., Anne Arundel County Police Southern District officers responded to the 600 block of West Bay Front Road, Lothian, Maryland for an unconscious male lying near a handgun. Upon arrival officers located an adult male subject suffering from an apparent gunshot wound to the upper body in the master bedroom. Fire department personnel responded to the scene and later pronounced the male as being deceased. The deceased male was positively identified as Anthony Joseph Anastasi Jr, a forty year old male from the 600 block of West Bay Front Road, Lothian, Maryland.

As patrol officers were conducting their initial investigation, an injured adult female was located in the basement area of the residence. The adult female suffered apparent trauma to her upper body and was also pronounced deceased by medical professionals. The deceased female was positively identified as Jacqueline Irene Riggs, a twenty five year old female from the 600 block of West Bay Front Road, Lothian, Maryland.

Homicide detectives along with technicians from the Evidence Collection Unit responded to the scene searching the area for any items of possible evidentiary value in regards to the death of these two individuals. Several witnesses were located and brought to the Criminal Investigation Division where interviews were conducted.

On Tuesday, October 6, 2015, the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner located in Baltimore Maryland performed an autopsy on Mr. Anastasi and Ms. Riggs. Mr. Anastasi’s cause of death was a gunshot wound while the cause of Ms. Riggs’ death was multiple cut/stab wounds.

As detectives sifted through the evidence recovered from the crime scene several items were forensically analyzed. The forensic analysis of several items of recovered evidence did not coincide with what the crime scene depicted. Working in conjunction with the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner the deaths of Ms. Riggs and Mr. Anastasi were both ruled homicides.

Through physical evidence along with witness and suspect interviews homicide detectives were able to piece together the events that led to this double murder. Ann Marie Anastasi was the wife of the victim, Anthony Anastasi, and had been married for eighteen years. Ms. Riggs had been an associate of the family and had been romantically involved with Anthony and Ann Anastasi. During the summer of 2015, Ms. Riggs moved into the basement of their residence located in the 600 block of West Bay Front Road which caused tension within the residence.

Within a short period of time, Ann Anastasi and a thirteen year old juvenile decided to have Mr. Anastasi and Ms. Riggs killed. They enlisted the aid of the thirteen year old’s boyfriend to commit the murders. During the morning of Thursday, October 15, 2015, the Homicide Unit worked with the Anne Arundel County State’s Attorney’s Office and secured an arrest warrant for Ann Anastasi. During the evening of Thursday, October 15, 2015 Ann Anastasi was taken into custody without incident in the 600 block of West Bay Front Road. She was charged with two counts of First Degree Murder, two counts of Second Degree Murder and the use of a Firearm in the Commission of a Felony. Ann Anastasi is currently being held at the Anne Arundel County Jennifer Road Detention Center on a no bond status.

The thirteen year old female juvenile was also located where she was taken into custody and charged with two counts of First Degree Murder and also Accessory after the Fact. The juvenile was remanded to the custody of a juvenile detention facility.

Abandoned Magpie Roams Free but Always Returns to Family that Rescued Her



It was a cold and windy day when Cameron Bloom’s son Noah spotted her, a 3-week old Magpie that had fallen out of her nest and been abandoned by her mother. “She barely had any feathers … and she was close to dying,” Bloom recalls.
The Sydney-based family took her to their local vet where they were told it was possible to raise the chick but that magpies required a lot of time and care and needed to be fed regularly and often.
The family of five (three boys) were up for the challenge and nursed the abandoned magpie back to health. They named her Penguin and they made her a nest in one of the trees in their backyard. She comes and goes as she pleases but she always seems to come back to the family that rescued her.
Bloom, who is a professional photographer, has been documenting the relationship between Penguin and his family on the wildly popular Instagram account @penguinthemagpie, which now boasts over 68,000 followers. Be sure to check out the incredible feed that already features nearly 100 beautiful portraits of Penguin and the Bloom family.

























HAPPY SUNDAY TO MY CS PEEPS WHEREVER YOU ARE!

I'm enjoying mine tremendously coz I'm having the whole house to myself until the kids come home tomorrow

Just heard a few days ago that Hungary is encouraging young Hungarian families to have more kids (due to population decline) and with that comes some benefits for the mother as well. Benefits include a $36,000 loan which is cancelled after a certain period of time etc. I think after the fourth baby is born the remainder debt is cancelled....
I truly don't know if this is true but would like to find out if anyone on CS might confirm this
