Last month my daughter's girlfriend died at the age of 41. Last night Natasha Richardson died at the young age of 45 years old.
When Princess Diana died I was truly shaken. A beautiful young woman who had already made a huge difference in the world to be taken from her sons, people of the United Kingdom and all over the world who loved her dearly.
I can't speak for all of us ladies but when some of us were little girls we wanted to be a princess. And even to this day, adult women want to look like a princess when they get married.
I know that dieing is part of living.....but when we lose young people who have so much to offer it just doesn't seem fair.
Natasha Richardson was charming, beautiful and was loved by many. My favorite movie of hers was "Maid In Manhattan". Liam Neeson, her sons and her mother, Vanessa Redgrave are going through turmoil and my neart is saddened for them.
Being the mother of a young woman, who is only 44 years old, it scares to know how fast she could be taken from me.
I hope for peace and love for Natasha's family and friends
Yes I would tell her. It will probably create ill feelings towards you and your best friend but it's better than she getting involved with a low lieing scum. Geez, I need to come out of my shell
Sadly, I have to say, the only person that will attend my funeral is my daughter. I don't think she will miss me because now I don't see her even though we live only 4 miles apart. She believes that mothers should "live on the back burner".
That's not as important to me as what my daughter stands for.
She is a county police officer and she is a member of the SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) and has adopted many animals from shelters.
To reverse the situation, God forbid that I would have to bury her, I would have on her tombstone "She Made A Difference In The Lives Of Dogs".
I'm sorry hon. I don't mean to be offensive to anyone but after reading about how many times do you "do it" and countries that are terrroristic, Morgan's thread was just plain refreshing. She got a lot of people to respond and I don't think there were any derrogatory remarks.
So, if someone wants to beat me with a wet noodle....I don't care. That's my story and I'm sticking to it
I'm joking about not caring. I do hope that no one thinks I'm putting them down.
I would tell the person that I wronged and apologize. There is great benefit to easing your conscience. Living with the lie only creates horror in your life.
I have never cheated on anyone, nor will I ever cheat.
You feel stupid. Not so. I'm the one who lives in the United States and I thought the Hoover Dam was in the Grand Canyon. Duh Embarrassed And what's really embarrassing is that I watch National Geographic channel all the time
Is the last commercial you saw on TV still ringing in your head?
The commercial I can't let go of is about a singing fish. There is a link below that I hope will allow you to hear the singing fish.....that is if I copied it correctly.
If you can't open it, try to Goggle "singing fish commercial" and you should be able to get it.
I'm at work and this computer has tons of firewalls which limits things I can do.
Hi Morgan. I just got to work (10:30 a.m.)...had a doctor's appt this morning. I don't have time to read through the whole thread but I wish I did cause it's a Very refreshing to get away from the usual.
I don't know if Jesse answered your question about the Grand Tetons. The Grand Tetons are beautiful, beautiful mountains. When they have snow on them they are magnificent. There is so much to see in Yellowstone National Park. Jessee will probably also see the Hoover Dam which is a sight unto itself.
I agree with Tam. I was scammed myself recently, in fact it was 2005. It wasn't until I went in the Forums and found friends to talk to that I am able to put him behind me. I'm not just saying that....it's very true.
What I needed and what your friend might need is to know she has you....that you will allow her to repeat the same story over and over and over. That you don't mind if she crys and calls you all the time.
I also thought it was the end of the world because I had made him my life....my every thought.
Hang in there with her. You need to not only "listen" to her, but you need to "hear" what she says. Good luck to you and your friend.
I subscrib to XM because I want to listen to the radio without commercials.
But I'm finding that some channels have commercials and I'm annoyed that I'm paying for this.
There was a poster the other day who said she loves Elvis....does anyone remember her name.... I want to tell her that if she has XM, channel 18 has all Elvis music
Tam, what I went to was a parade of 400,000 people lining the streets of New York City. It was a war we won by driving Hussein out of Kuwait and it was a popular war with the exception those who gave their life.
It sounds like the person you know is one individual coming home from an unpopular war.
If I may make a suggestion Tam so that he doesn't get the reception that our military got after Vietnam, which was arrogance, try to have lots of people at the airport welcoming him home and maybe plan a big party. It's important that he knows people appreicate what he went through over there.
On June 10, 1992 I went to a parade in New York City.
It was for the military coming home from the first Gulf War.
I took a train to New York and arrived at 8:00 a.m. which put me in the front of the potential crowd. It was difficult standing for four hours with no food or bathroom break but I was determined not to leave my spot in the line.
We waited about four hours for the parade started.
I am rather an introvert but I have to tell you, I had the time of my life shouting and waiving to all branches of the military.
I have never, ever had such a good time as that day was
I know he's hurting and I truly feel bad for anyone whose brokenhearted and can't let go of what once was. Most of the time people aren't looking for advice....they just need to vent....been there many times myself.

Now I know why you didn't respond to me
