Lost That Blogging Feeling




Well it happened I lost the desire to blog for a bit. I hope I haven't had many visitors to the site....and for those who did stop by sorry for the lack of new postings.

Well Dennis and I are off to Las Vegas this weekend for a week long holiday. We will have company on this trip Ruth and Norm will be joining us. I have never been there before so I am finding myself really excited this week as we get closer to take off time. I am sure there will be a few pictures and stories to tell once we get back.

On the Sunday after we return the family will be gathering for the spreading of my Mother's ashes. She requested that they be spread at Websters Falls in Greensville. The falls is located not far from where we lived as the family grew. I find Websters Falls to be a place with a calming affect on me. As a child I spent many weekends exploring the wooded areas and climbing up and down the falls edge. I have many fond memories of this place and now it will be even more special to visit.

I hope all is well with everyone and I will be posting on the trip soon.

It's Coming

NUMBING

With the note worthy news about Mark Foley-Republican Congressman sending young teens sexually explicit electronic messages. Also that he personally was the co-chair of the Congressional Missing and Exploited Children's Canucus. It leaves me stunned as to what is going on out there is the world. I had thought it through at the time I read about it in the paper. Then again when I was watching The View today and the subject was discussed. In my mind I realize how trouble this is but I had a real awakening when I was surfing the web tonight. All these years of being on the Internet surfing, chatting and now blogging I heard about child pornography. As I was randomly surfing blogs tonight there it was for the first time in my life the most horrifying site I had ever seen. It was a random blog that I just happened to hit on.....as I write this my mind is spinning....I just don't know how to say it....I am close to tears thinking about it....I thought I had a open mind about world happenings and the sickooooosssss out there....I guess I don't

The image of a little girl about 9 or 10 naked. I wasn't sure at first how to react so in disbelief I scrolled down the page...it only got worst
little children in sexual acts with an adult male and eventually an adult women.
I sat there stunned and then I went numb....I didn't know what to do I felt angered and confused. With Dennis being away I had one one to tell or even ask what to do, so I reacted the only way my mind would handle it at the moment. On the tool bar some of the blogs have the option to tell the owner the content is unacceptable by clicking the button......so I did and then I quickly clicked the selection to take me to the next random blog I clicked it over and over and over again to get far away from it as I could.

Now I sit here two hours later still sick over what I saw and thinking to myself I wish I knew how to report this to someone. Who do I tell....
