Relationships?? I need some answers

In life it seems that no matter what is going on someone has an opinion on it no matter who and what it is.. We all have an opinion and whether or not it's noticed we still have our thoughts on any giving matter.

WHY is it that we as people are critical of one another? Why can't we just let folk alone and let people be who they are.  What about this statement?

Don't we also comment on relationship of others?  people will say things like what's he doing with her OR what's she doing with Him. < The reality of it all is that people just can't seem to mind their own business>
  I am guilty as anyone else.

What are your views on couples dating with a large age gaps?  Does this offend or bother you?

Do you think it's better if a guy is much older than a woman  OR

What if it's a woman who is much older than the man? Does this matter

And finally do you really care one way or the other...

Let me hear from you your voice matters..

Debra

I Believe that in life people should do whatever it is that makes them happy, as long as it doesn't physically hurt someone else.  Life is tough enough without being scrutinized or labeled. I say live and let live.

Transplant Type - Kidney

In 2009, Arbedale was hospitalized and nearly lost her life, as her kidneys were functioning at just 7%. She has since been diagnosed with a blood disorder that has damaged her kidneys, and doctors now say a kidney transplant is essential. While awaiting her transplant, she endures regular dialysis treatments, which take a toll on her survival.

This has been a difficult time for Arbedale and her family, especially her two sons, who simply want to see their mother well again. Before her health began to decline, she led an active life and loved water aerobics, taking walks, traveling and bowling. Sadly, her activities are extremely limited these days because she’s often weak and exhausted. After receiving her transplant, she looks forward to traveling to see family and enjoying the things she has missed for the last five years. More than anything, she wants to live a normal life again, but right now, she needs your help. - See more at: http://patients.transplants.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=485635&supid=419751506#sthash.GQAhlU1M.dpuf

The Boogie Man is a Baby.......

                                                                      

                                        My grands great niece and great nephews and Me...........
                              

                                                                   

I wrote my story over a week ago and pondered whether or not I wanted to share such a personal truth with you. And for me I wanted and need to release this into the element... So here is goes.

Sometimes we just have to unleash and let go in order to move forward. I feel like today is that day.. I need to unleash some things and shake them lose. The reason I believe that this is so hard is that growing up in my era you didn't talk about a lot of things and even in the home you were told not to be opening your mouth about things that go on in the home. So, what that did was make it difficult to really let go and tell somebody about anything that you may be going through  for fear of not being disobedient. 

 (Isaiah 40:29) He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
                                 

 Yesterday I had some turn of events in my very own place which made me re-visit a place that I don't like to go and after speaking with a 10 year old child about the life she's living made me do an about face on my own sorted past and realities as a young girl remembering things that were left at yesterday feet. This may not be her story I pray not however it brought something out of me so here it goes.

I remember living in Chicago as a young girl and really just kind of having free will in our neighborhood despite the growing concerns of the various street gangs and crime in the late 1960's

 This photo was taken the year I was born 1961

                                    

Chicago's ghettos in the 1960s were notorious for their shootings, robberies, rapes, fires, joblessness, single-parent families, dreadful schools and high dropout rates, rampant alcoholism and heroin addiction, abandoned buildings and vacant lots .Reference here



A 12 yr old boy took advantage of my innocence  and made off with my innocence 

As I had know it. Me a pure and innocence a girly tom boy girl.   I like to be a girly girly with all the frill and girly things but I also liked to get down and dirty with the boys building mud pies riding bikes and enjoying just being a kid. 

 My Mom is My Shero:
         In Late the late 1960 I remember my mom being this very family dedicated extremely hard working mother who with five kids worked two jobs and a part time to make ends meet. She always said one full time job paid for the care that we received while she worked. My mom is my Shero I have big love and much respect for the woman that she is. She is that Woman in spite of all the odds and challenges of being a single mother with five kids she with stood the test of time to make it happen. She put herself through college she raised her family. She hustled so hard that she became very ill in 1969  She was just worn out and exhausted... Why?? For working so damned hard to keep family together. And I love her for it! It made me the mother that I am.

                                                     

The Boogie man is a baby

                                                      
We had two babysitters one for the day and one for the night. Our daytime sitter would come to our place which I loved, mom always kept such a clean eat off your floor kind of home and it always smelled like spring in our place even in the winter.
Our night baby sitter ran a store with kids toys candy and (the Best Dill Pickles in the world) Man...Still looking for that taste. After school she would take us to the store and we would hang out and play eat junk and just really enjoying the play area she had for us. At night we would spend the night and go home at 7am this happened every school night. We had done this for a couple of weeks now she had gotten used to us and we had gotten used to her as well. But more importantly I was finally getting used to being at their incredibly large house with a hallway that went on forever and ever with doors and pretty things everywhere.  
Girls like shiny things so we pay attention to every detail. A couple of times Pam the baby sitter and I would walk down the long hallway to the very last room. I remember the first time we went in the bedroom at the end of the hallway I was stunned that there was a really old lady in this grand and elegant queens room. I was taken back at first because as a 7 yr old I had never seen such an old person before. Pam introduced her to me as her grandmother. And I learned that she was blind very friendly and sweet .


The Middle of the Hallway is where the Boogieman Baby Hides: 

                                                         

One night after having been there a couple of weeks I knew we could not walk freely in the house.  We were actually in a large room for us girls that had French glass doors and on the other side were two Doberman pincher dogs that roamed the house freely so at night we were not allowed to be out of the room and Pam the babysitter was in another area of the house. The house always fell quite and peaceful at night.

 On this particular night Pam’s nephew who is between twelve and fourteen years old is roaming the house peeking inside where we 4 girls were. He would just eye ball us and keep it moving. Later that night sleep finally came for me but the next thing that I knew, nephew shook me awake and said auntie Pam sent me to get you, she wants’ you down the hall.  I was so sleepy but I  went following behind him checking to make certain the dogs were not out.  They weren’t and even at my age I knew that was pretty strange. When we arrive to the middle of the hallway there was a room I had not been in before. As he opened the door I could see it was a pretty bedroom that was all made up but it was empty and Pam was nowhere in sight.

  Nephew told me, just sit down and wait she's coming in a few minutes later I'm sitting there sleepy and ready to be back under the covers. What happen next took me by totally by surprise this boy sits next to me and starts rubbing on my body and I'm thinking to myself something’s wrong with this picture. As I jumped up he grabbed me and put his hand over my mouth and said if you say one word I'm going to get my dogs on you!  Do you want that?  I shook my head so he continued rubbing all on my bones couldn't have been my breast I was not quite eight yet.. He undressed us both and proceeded to climb on top of my body and just do what he wanted. I just laid there not knowing what was going on this was new to me, but some how it just felt all wrong. And I felt like this big boy knows this is all wrong but didn't seem to care. He had strange colored eyes a round high yellow face with reddish hair and the largest eyes and those eyes are what's   burned in my memory.

I as a child was so confused when I got back to my own room I was trying to figure out  what just happened? I knew in my heart of hearts that it was wrong but if I said anything he was going to get them vicious dogs to take care of me. I didn't know what to do so I just kept quiet. I couldn't tell my mom because  I was sure she would probably be mad at me... I was so sure I had done something so wrong that everyone would hate me. I was so confused about what to do heck I was just seven years old.

After months of this, from the nephew (wished I knew the suckers name) I don't... It became the norm as I knew it.  This had been on going on undetected by no one and as a little girl after months of this I began to rather enjoy it.  Something in my body was saying yeah baby.. These were things a young girl should not be feeling one way or the other about. She is supposed to be innocent and pure and untouched.  In my mind I know the only thing which saved me from his continued abused was that in 69 my mom was so ill My grandfather had given my grandmother money to move us all. So my grandmother and aunt came to Chicago and moved our whole family to Portland Oregon. No more of having to see his face with the piecing greyish green eyes because even though I had begun to have mixed feeling about the actual act. I despise this freckled face boy from robbing me of my childhood innocence.

I finally told mom when I was in my thirties and it broke her heart to know that these awful things had been happening to me and also the fact that she had no idea.

Part one is dedicated to Sweet Mama for her strong dedication to family and all people.

Also Dedicated to Sweet Little Z Baby because of you I had the strength to tell my story...

Have you ever had a Dreamers Dream

                           Have you ever had a dreamers dream?

                               
Because if you have you know what it's like to want something so bad you could taste it. It doesn't have to be something expensive or anything of monetary value. You see we all have things we have hopes of accomplishing things in our life. For some its to see that far away place or that tropical island or perhaps its to see a loved one not seen for some time.

A dreamers dream keeps us hoping and longing for something that we want to attain. One could say they have a thirst for that one thing you long to do see taste or feel.

Willie Wonka said it best "We are the makers of dreams the dreamer of dreams"

                  

I challenge you to be dreamers; I challenge you to be doers and let us make the greatest place in the world even better.

Brian Schweitzer

Writers write. Dreamers talk about it.

Jerry B. Jenkins

Have you ever been a dreamers dreamer? Yes I have. To me dreaming is an escape to a place of fulfillment and excitement. you can visit anyplace you like in your own mind. I also love the fact that dreams can become realities. The big quest is how bad do you want it? What will you do to take your dreams to the next level. Will you be an action taker or perhaps you want to just be a professional dreamer it makes you happy in it of itself. One great factor is everyone has the right and the option to do and and be anything their heart desires. 

For me I choose to keep dreaming and keep forging forward towards my dreams I am a person that want to live her dreams and step into my own dream place.

To you personally live your own dreams and your own truths. Just be you and be happy.

6 Tips for Maximum Winter Warmth with Minimum Costs

1. Sunny Side Open – Use the sun for free heat. Open
curtains and blinds with sunny exposure to let in light and heat during
the day, then close them at night to retain heat.

2. Bundle Up – Instead of turning up the thermostat, put on a sweater. Keep blankets on your couch, and use rugs to insulate floors.

3.  Go in Reverse – If you have reversible ceiling fans, use the clockwise setting to keep warm air circulating instead of rising to the ceiling.

4. Clean Your Furnace – Make sure your filters are replaced regularly, and make sure all air intakes and vents are unblocked.

5. Keep it Humid – Use a humidifier to add moisture to the air. Moist air retains heat better than dry air.

6. Add Insulation – Adding weather stripping and thermal curtains are quick, easy ways to reduce heat loss.

 V A L EN T I N E S D A Y............... February 14

 How many of us will rush out soon to purchase that special gift for either our selves or someone else.  It's that special day on top of all the other days throughout the year that we get to express our love for that special person in our life.

Many of us including myself  believe that we should express our love everyday of the year. I also think that Valentines Day's gives us and extra special day to really pour it on. To let that extra special person know that we Love them. So whether we shower them with flowers candy and or gifts our loved one knows that they are loved by you.

I have written a piece recently called 

 Valentine’s Day What does it really mean and how did it get started? 

. It is a cap on how it really began which makes for an interesting story to say the least. and if you don't know its not really what cha think.


Take a look http://debrastfo.blogspot.com/2015/02/valentines-day-what-does-it-really-mean.html

 Chantix really work? Can you really quit smok...: Does Chantix really work? Can you really quit smoking 

Does Chantix really work? Can you really quit smoking

Does Chantix really work? Can you really quit smoking

After thirty seven long years I have been smoke free for just over a month now. Has it been easy?

In my 37 years of smoking I have only decided to quick on at best 4 occasions. two were during my pregnancies of my sons. and the other couple of times was when I had been the but of many family conversations over the year's from my kids and some of my siblings/family members and friends. The big question has always been? When are you gonna stop smoking??????

So both of the other times was because someone else wanted me to quit, and I on the other hand was in not ready to stop. The truth of the matter is , is that I really enjoyed a good smoke its kinda like good love making. Yeap pun intended. lol


This time was very different. How so because it's something I wanted to do I made it up in my mind that I was ready to quit. So for the first 3 weeks I used Chantix as I had done so in the past. What I did learn previously from using it, is that with your combined effort of will and chantix you can be smoke free. To me It works very Well.

By the third week I started to feel like I really didn't need the Chantix any longer not because it wasn't helping but because I didn't want to have something else that would allow me to be dependent on it something else yet again. Thirty Seven  years a is long enough to be a slave to something that is really bad for you.

I won't say that I don't get urges and have a its a "cigarette moment". Yes I certainly do.
 
So, in my fourth week I went to the Hookah Shop and purchase myself an e cigarette in apple oil vapors. and it really got me past the point of I want a cigarette urge. Now I am just a few days out with regard to giving it up as well (e vapors) but what I can say is that it has made my transition that much more smooth in terms of kicking the thirty seven year yr bout with smoking.

What I can say is that the last straw for me was the smell. It was really starting to get to me even after all these years.  I hated that God awful smell.  So what smoking element did I use to kick the habit. In the end it was the smell of it... I used that element to my cause me to give it up!. I made that the reason It would work for me..Quest what it worked.!!!


But the most important aspect of it all is that I must give all my credit to God, I asked God to take the taste out of my mouth- the thought out of my mind and let me move forward with out this old habit. God has given me favor on this one I no longer crave cigarettes at all. Amen.


(Has it been easy) That is a two sided coin


Why because although in studies it often times will say that cigarettes are a very hard to habit to kick, and mainly because of the drug called nicotine. in my opinion It is as addictive as any other drugs like crack cocaine heroin methamphetamine  and so on and so forth. But just like with any drug the drive and determination must first begin with the user of said drug.


o for this reason alone is why it became so easy to me. I am now nicotine free and loving it. I can breath and my food taste so much better. You don't really realize that you give up a lot of your senses of smell and taste when you smoke for such a long period of time.




For me I have a multitude of illness and many are not in my control. But giving up on the cigarettes has always been in my control and my reach..
