Zombie disaster? possible...

-there was once a man in our neighborhood really nicknamed ZOMBIE because he had some kind of real bad mental problems or something and so he was not educated or skilled BUT he was really able to tell time well enough WITHOUT A WATCH, build bicycles that didnt fall apart and in general was a true friend who was really all there for anyone.


So my idea of zombies are not those gross horror movie creations that terrorize people but are real people; maybe autistic, mentally ill, on medication, starving, down and out and so forth.


Their greatest need for help puts them on a kind of autopilot that motivates them to get the help they need, whether it's food because they are going hungry, a clean safe place to sleep, a place to wash their clothes, help with their family, needing money.


But some may be potential trouble such as maybe someone trying to avoid the law or out to steal from you. And yes there are some that are alcoholic or using drugs -street or prescription. Most ?zombies? know how to act when entering your home; whether they are out to take advantage of you by posing as a friend or they outright rob your house while you're gone or assault you. And some are true friends whose problems have clouded their best judgement.


So along with the usual common sense preparedness- daily or emergency such as having your birth certificate and other forms of ID, plenty of food and drink, first aid supplies, tools for home repairs, exercise some trust or caution as you would with anyone who comes into your house.


Just play it cool  and be cooperative as if welcoming a guest in your home so  PLEASE NO WEAPONS AND JUST SAY NO....


and so whether you need to call the police or 911 or F*CK the POLICE or 911 is up to your best judgement -  :)

EEK MOUSE!!! :) for real :)

Now FaceBook has had a steady theme from me about a unique rat in the house :) my frustrations with being a single mom and my finally admitting a lifetime of brain damage and mental illness :)


i was acting only out of faith-


-then something presents itself to me and then sets itself on display to prove that life aint all bad


IT WAS AN INCH LONG ALMOST BLACK LITTLE MOUSE with a real short tail


Thursday afternoon after my son had got jailed when on his way back from WalMart picking up food for the house - I left the car in impound to hope there better be food or something to prove he was indeed at WalMart. He is being charged with possession of dope and other stuff....marijuana 2-a single use or maybe scraps in the car...we are yet to find out who was really driving that car...


anyway Thursday afternoon May 12 about 3 or 4 in the afternoon, I was turning on the water hose to fill the dogs outside water buckets up. I saw a mess of rope and a deflated inner tube with canvas cover beside the sun porch. I picked it up to put it away in the garage when a silvery bug looking creature was flittering around in the leaves.


I slapped at it with the rope but it was still flittering around and then it got in my flip flop. I slung it off and the thing was still flittering around so i snatched at it thinking I was just seeing things and would catch nothing. But it felt furry and I cracked my hand open to see a tiny little mouse snuggled in my hand. It was cute. Worried that it was maybe too hurt or had bitten me, I put it in a small fish tank to watch it in case I got sick and needed to show the creature that I had contact with.


By that night it was happily eating; dog food, bread so I provided it with some newspaper, a toilet paper tube for a house. It was quite a lively little stinker so later I put a branch from the bush it was found under and a unique ceramic candle holder in the tank for it to explore.


I had decided to keep the mouse because when my kids were little they had caught one and thought it was so cute and they liked how soft it felt and wanted to keep it but it got away from them. I want to surprise my son with it, at least a picture and a story of it.


- that mouse was found around the same bush where a dog (Charity) my son was dog sitting for over the weekend while I was gone was found dead that Monday BY ME. The dogs owner had provided it with dog food, checked on it regularly, it was healthy: had its shots and was wormed. My son said it had gotten bad sick then had assumed the owner had took the dog back home. I had noticed the dog missing not too long after I got home. When I found it it looked like it was just asleep but my son saw me find it dead. How cruel can life be....


I have realized that being in a relationship with another man is really not good for me and my family and I just havent yet broke up with him.... but being gone off with a man over the weekend is not the thing to be doing....even if it is a clean relationship from which I have made some good friends


May God give me the strength to break it off with him. I'm not sure how much he really cares about or loves me anyway

WHen I See Jesus, things get better... :)

I "Like" anything about Jesus on FaceBook and so I've been seeing a lot of Jesus on FaceBook.


So therefore in good faith that my FaceBook friends will pray with and for me, I have been blasting my horn about my hard times-everybody has problems, some worse than me so let's just pray with and for each other.


I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST:


-i am guilty of spending too much time on Facebook because I've been seeing so much of Jesus...


-and so if that interferes with the work I do for people then I have to face maybe losing a job or two, after all Jesus did say those who dont work well enough dont get paid


I WILL TRY NOT TO WORRY ABOUT BEING SO POOR AND HAVE FAITH THAT I WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF BEING AN AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST....as we are all called to do.


<<<<----->>>>> and so on -


FRIDAY MAY 13 - i took the courage to admit to CHILD ABUSE and will now fail a drug screen


MY SON WAS JAILED BECAUSE I COULD NOT HELP HIM


and so i will do what it truthfully takes to save him


his life is ahead of him - mine is behind me


it all started when their dad lost his life to some kind of brain damaged mistake i made that cost him his life-

Good Info on Home-Based Business

It is true one can make money from home with a service or product or they can use their existing job or career skills.


The computer and internet along with self discipline and skills make that possible.


But you do have to advertise and promote yourself, service, product or skills then have the self discipline to be able to manage the work you will have to do and then the money you make.


http://theweblist.webs.com - earn money surfing the internet, not much but at leasst to spend on advertising.


http://techdesigns.webs.com - online design, printing, promotional items


And there are the popular turn-key websites that can make you money.


And of course there is EBay, Google, ClickBank etc and you can make money with those too.


Then there are freelance employment sites such as www.odesk.com where you can do contract work.


Social media networking is very popular along with usual emailing, printed materials and phones.


HOWEVER THERE IS A CATCH-   :) its called "blackhat" ? marketing (such as spamming and ripping people off)  or "white hat marketing"(using more honest means to sell)  -both involve the abilities to promote or market your product or service through how you communicate with people and how you choose to use online and off-line resources to advertise.


There are the right and of course wrong ways to try to sell your product or service or use your skills.


And then there is that "gray area" of marketing where someone makes honest mistakes in marketing.


Now it is no secret that the best way to do business whether providing a service or selling something is being able to sell yourself; the ability to relate to people and so build a successful campaign based on the needs of the people and using information about them (in a positive manner) to communicate.


There are a plethera of ways to promote, sell, market, use skills etc such as emailing, phone use, social media sites, messengers, TV, radio and of course any business involve times and money.


http://www.financialdesign.info - http://www.economicfreedomcorp.com/mmm30007


http://www.freefromyourpaycheck.com/blog0208/ - news, tips and tools about making money online


BUT HERE ARE SOME THINGS NOT TO DO AND SOME WAYS NOT TO DO BUSINESS



  • Use good manners on the phone - no bullying, trickery, name calling etc

  • Don't spam with emailing - email about things most people are interested in

  • Follow up with leads you do get - but don't obviously bother them

  • Provide a quality service or product. - dont rip anyone off :)


Last but not least do not do such things as deliberately making a person feel threatened or harassed, or should that happen by accident be sure to correct it. Rather positively build a persons trust and if they are not interested then leave them alone.


DO NOT RESORT TO IMPROPER CELL PHONE USE, SUSPICIOUS EMAILS, JOKES, SCRIPTS, COMPUTER HACKING etc to try to trick or pressure a person....


(on a personal note - NEVER USE THE INTERNET, EMAIL, PHONE OR DIRECT MAIL TO MAKE ANYONE FEEL THREATENED LIKE YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT OUTSIDE THEIR DOOR or something but such means could have been an honest mistake by the person who did that or the person who felt insecure and threatened to begin with.... .:) - dont be a stranger without a face.

June 2010 to May 2011

as I wrote before credit card information was taken from me and my personal information used to create True Success Solutions - http://www.truesuccesssolutions.com/sk2856


my personal email address and phone number was used so i got an invoice-the first invoice had incorrect information but it was corrected and I got another one-the 500 dollars i lost was non-refundable according to the invoice-same as with a www.dwscott.com/sherrykinman-i was able to get a refund and the site no longer exists - may have changed to http://www.economicfreedomcorp.com/


i am still haunted by at least a couple of terrorizing calls from True Success Solution -  i received-the most distinct one was from an ED who couldnt hardly pronounce the link for True Success Solutions - i couldnt write it down fast enough much less type it - he was commanding me to do such things as "this is very important" - "get out a clean sheet of paper" as I was screaming "NO! YOU ARE NOT GOING TO ORDER ME AROUND OVER THE PHONE LIKE THIS!" I was panicking and pacing the house as my kids seemed to ignore me.....


since then and even now I still have a genuine fear of going to sleep, i do not feel safe in my house but i am still afraid to leave my house and i panic if i doi have at least learned self defense.....(online)   ---  and  - i classify that as TERRORISM-thank you
