Breaking News From Scotland

http://news.uk.msn.com/uk/deal-launches-independence-debate

A historic agreement has been signed that signals “game on” for the Scottish independence debate.

Prime Minister David Cameron met Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond in Edinburgh to sign off on a deal that will deliver a legally binding referendum in 2014.

The agreement stipulates that the ballot must contain just one question on independence after Westminster resolutely refused to permit a second question on “devolution max”.

In exchange, the Scottish Government has been given a free hand to propose the date of referendum, the wording of the question, and the option to extend the franchise to 16- and 17-year-olds.

Have a great evening.

Looking Forward

Getting in the mood for Halloween/Samhain.

Looking forward, and will continue to work on my plan of getting healthy and moving out of the United States.  I want to be in Scotland and be active in Scottish/British Politics.

I know Americans can’t understand my feelings and desire to leave the United States behind forever and to renounce my American citizenship once I have my British passport.  You see, I know once I get my British Passport the United States will strip me of my American citizenship.  When I go to Hawaii to spend time with my family, it will be with a British Passport and not as American citizen.  I can still visit my family in Hawaii with a British Passport.

The United States Government or should I say people who served in this government hurt me really bad.  Don’t know if my faith or trust will ever be restored.  As I said in group I want to live in a place that I respect and trust the government I live under.  Have no trust in the United States Government because of what happen to my dad and I when we went to someone who served in Government when we were in TROUBLE.  WE WERE BOTH TOLD IT WASN’T THEIR PROBLEM WHICH TO ME IS TO SAY GO TO HELL.

It will be awhile before I am able to leave this nation for good, so I guess there is always time for certain people if they care enough to make things right, to restore my faith and trust in them and this government.  I never say never, as when I say never it usually happens.  I always choose to try and look things from a view point of good can happen.  Truth is always found out in the end and if people are basically good inside and once they know they are wrong because they believed a lie, then I believe they will seek to make things right.  I don’t need an I am sorry, just them facing me and we talk face to face one on one, so that we can say what has to be said without airing our dirty laundry.  I need to talk to this person who refused to help a lady in distress about White Nationalism in America.  He can decide what he wants to do with the info.

With my years in White Nationalism, I could be a good resource for him if he ever decided he wanted to join the FIGHT and bring much needed RESOURCES TO FRIENDS OF MINE WHO PLAN TO STAY IN THE UNITED STATES.   Even when I am in Scotland I will help my FRIENDS here who FIGHT WHITE NATIONALISM.  WHITE NATIONALISM IS WORLD WIDE…..I can still visit them with a British Passport and they can come visit me in Scotland.

I don’t hold my breath that this person will do the right thing and even seek to restore the faith and trust in the government that he by his actions helped to strip away.  Nixon’s government also played a role in my thinking the United States Government doesn’t care one ounce about American people who are in TROUBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  My Congressman friend was just the icing on the cake, I guess.  I have never in my life been treated so cruel by any other human being when seeking a safe place to hide for a day or two from my mother who abuses me and makes my life hell sometimes.  I don’t know why this ex Congressman HATES ME SO MUCH.  Even White Nationalists showed me more compassion and helped me when I needed help.

I think in some ways I am like Anne Frank who tried to see good in everyone.  I try to see good in this person who I went to for help many years ago and he said it WASN’T HIS PROBLEM, when I was being abused over him.  Great guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the stupid thing is that I still love him as a friend…… That is where my head tells me he is not worthy of my friendship and unconditional love, but my heart tells me that he just didn’t understand and once he knows the truth, he will prove that he is a true friend, who will face me and talk to me.

Just keep taking one step at a time, and someday I will be out of the United States forever.  though I do want to stop back home in Boston and put flowers on the family graves before moving to Scotland.  I won’t get lost in the translation anymore as I will be with other Scots and Brits.  There is a difference between the UK and America.

I am a little sad tonight, because I am still stuck in the United States and I want to be in Skye.  Yet, I know that it isn’t the right time yet, and when the time is right, events will unfold that will bring me to the place I can leave and begin a new life free and healthy from the PTSD……..  I will be able to enjoy life……………………

22 Sept 2012

I want to report that thousands came to the Yes for Independent Scotland Rally.  If I was there I would go to the rally too.  The old Jacobite in me, as my ancestors the MacDonalds and other Scottish ancestors were Jacobites, still dreams of a day when we will be free again to be our own nation.  The same dream shared by our Irish brothers and sisters for a free Ireland.

We have some issues that need to be worked out before it can happen.  If Scotland can be first to achieve our shared dream of a free nation then we must support and help our Irish Celtic brothers and sisters for a free Ireland as well as a free Scotland.

I know I like many other Scots have English blood inside of me.  I love my English side as well.  One doesn’t hate themselves or they shouldn’t.  That is why I feel we must find a peaceful solution that makes all sides happy about the idea of a free Scotland and Ireland.  Violence never works.  Violence never brings anyone to our side, but turns people away and sucks the support of the people from our Cause.  All reasonable people can find solutions to the problems that seperate us, so that all people on all sides can find something to agree on.  we are all not going to get 100% what we want but if we are lucky we might get 50% what we want.  The SNP must be willing to work with the PM David Cameron and the PM must be willing to listen to the wishes of the Scottish People.  Both sides must use reason in finding a solution that works for all sides.

Our Irish Celtic brothers and sisters must not even think of returning to using violence as a means to getting a free Ireland.  If we in Scotland can succeed in gaining a free Scotland through non violence then I hope they will choose to use the same blue print and seek a free Ireland through elections and seeking to find a solution that works for all without any use of violence.

On one of my Scottish groups we were talking and dreaming about  picking the National athem for a free Scotland.  I think Scotland the Brave should be considered plus the Flower of Scotland.  Anyone of those two songs would be a great choice.  I will play both and you can choose which one you like best.

Scotland the Brave

The Flower of Scotland

I know more people want this to be the choice.

Skye boat song.

Love this song as it makes me think of Flora MacDonald who was a hero of mine.

Someday I will make it to Skye and visit Lord and Lady MacDonald.  I know others who were in Clan Donald in Kansas who went and how they said how wonderful it is.

Hope everyone has a great day and enjoyed starting the day with some Celtic music.

I love starting the day with bagpipes so I will end with a song with Pipes in it.

Good morning!  Hope everyone has a good day.

http://www.number10.gov.uk/news/manchester-police-deaths/

“The killing of two police officers in Manchester is a shocking reminder of the
debt we owe to those who put themselves in danger to keep us safe and secure. I
want to offer my thoughts, along with those of the whole country, to the
families, friends and colleagues at this difficult time.” ( PM David Cameron)

It is with great saddness that I have to post that in Manchester, where my grandmum was from, that two police officers were shot and killed.  My thoughts and prayers go out to the families and friends who lost their loved one.

Those who know me, know I defend people I like and respect when they are being unfairly attacked.  Our PM David Cameron made a statement regarding the Manchester Police deaths and like always he is being unfairly attacked by those who think he can say or do nothing right.  He is even being attacked by so called fellow Conservatives.

I defended him on his facebook page..  People liked what I had to say so I guess there are other Conservatives who support him even if we don’t agree with everything he says or does 100%.  Have yet to meet the perfect political candidate or leader.  If you find them let me know, I would love to meet such a person. lol.

I am a proud Conservative( based on the UK) woman.  I want the Conservatives to do well in the next election.  Winston Chruchill was a Conservative.  There have been a lot of great Conservatives who have been PM and served in the Government of the United Kingdom who helped make the world a better place.  Who will go down in History as some of the greatest men and women who ever lived.

God Save the Queen

I am half British and I am both Scottish and English.  I love both my Scottish and English side.  Love my Irish side too.

I have always been more British in mindset then American, plus add since I was 14 and the British Government saved my dad’s life when the American government told him to go to hell when in danger, I trust the British Government whereas the American Government I do not trust nor respect.

I want to live in a place where I trust the government so I will be moving back to Scotland at at some point.  I am a country girl who loves horses and ocean.  Scotland is more country and less people.  Besides I love my Scottish heritiage and Clan.  Clan Donald and the MacDonalds are a proud part of Scottish History.

You inspire me to make my dream of going to Scotland come true too.

To Gar

Hoped you enjoyed your day, I booked my tickets today, we  fly 14th October to London, then 3 weeks holiday before we move up to Scotland. If I go silent during that time then you know why, but drop me a post at my addy and I will check in weekly if I can get the laptop to work in UK.

We’re all counting down the days and shedding tears with family at friends at the prospect of leaving, the kids go new homes for all their pets so its been a rough week.

Gar.

————————————————

I am sure it has been tough for the kids finding new homes for their pets, but I am sure they checked them out and made sure they are good homes.

I am sure it is going to tough to leave family and friends, but hopefully they will in the future come and visit or even move to Scotland too.  So excited for you.

Went to my ptsd group today and it was good.  I am healing and getting a lot better all the time.

Cutting and letting go of the toxic people and things in my life.  This Fall I am hoping to be more active socially.

Will email you with the address you gave me.

Chrisy

To Gar

House is sold, money
is in the bank. Staying with our folks till we buy air tickets and transfer the funds. Mid October we fly!!

—————————————–

I am so happy for you and your family.  Moving to Scotland and starting a new life.  You all are going to be so happy there.  Someday I will make it to Scotland too.

Glad you are getting out.  Read about the murder of a 13 year old girl.  The murder rate is terrible where you are now, so I am very happy that you are getting out.  Maybe your families will follow you to Scotland at some point.

Here is a song to get you in the mood for Scotland.

Happy Sunday.  Hope everyone has a great day.

This picture came from one of my facebook groups.

It actually cooled down enough for Benji and I to enjoy our walk this morning, though I want it to get a lot cooler.  I like the climate of Scotland and New England.  The Northwest is nice too.  Short Summers and long Fall and Winters.

A Celtic Tale

———————————–

I wish I was in Scotland as the 22 Sept 2012 they are having a big gathering ( I hope) of people who want and support Scottish Independence.  For many of us who have Celtic blood we have dreamed for generations of a FREE SCOTLAND AND IRELAND.  Many of our ancestors FOUGHT and some DIED or where IMPRISONED for the CAUSE OF A FREE SCOTLAND AND IRELAND.  Want to be there so bad.

Like some, I also have English blood and another part of me is proud to be British.  I have the Union Jack in my room.  British Soldiers are being killed in AFGANISTAN( sp) and Scottish men and women who are serving in the British Forces are dying under the Union Jack.  One can still be a PROUD SCOT and still be BRITISH AT THE SAME TIME.

Scotland the Brave-STV

Whatever the people of Scotland decide to do, I will support them.  I am proud to be Scottish.

Go the distance- Michael Bolton

Like this song and it keeps me fighting for a better tomorrow.

We can overcome the ptsd.  There is a better life out there if only we are willing to make the changes needed.

I pray that if you are a woman trapped in White Nationalist hell you will take the first step on the journey to a better life.

There is life after White Nationalism, but you must be willing to fight for it.  Hope you have been thinking of your childhood heroes and if they would be proud of sowing their seed in you when you were a child.  Wouldn’t you want to be the woman that would make them proud of you?

Have a good day.

Chrisy

 

I love you Scotland

Hark when the night is falling Hear! Hear the pipes are calling,

Loudly and proudly calling,

Down thro’ the glen.

There where the hills are sleeping, …

Now feel the blood a-leaping,

High as the spirits of the old Highland men.

Towering in gallant fame,

Scotland my mountain hame,

High may your proud standards gloriously wave,

Land of my high endeavour,

Land of the shining river,

Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave.

High in the misty Highlands,

Out by the purple islands,

Brave are the hearts that beat Beneath Scottish skies.

Wild are the winds to meet you,

Staunch are the friends that greet you,

Kind as the love that shines from fair maiden’s eyes.

Towering in gallant fame,

Scotland my mountain hame,

High may your proud standards gloriously wave,

Land of my high endeavour,

Land of the shining river,

Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave.

Far off in sunlit places,

Sad are the Scottish faces,

Yearning to feel the kiss Of sweet Scottish rain.

Where tropic skies are beaming,

Love sets the heart a-dreaming,

Longing and dreaming for the homeland again.

Towering in gallant fame,

Scotland my mountain hame,

High may your proud standards gloriously wave,

Land of my high endeavour,

Land of the shining river,

Land of my heart for ever,

Scotland the brave.

15 Sept 2012

This picture came from one of my facebook groups.  I believe it is true.  It gives me hope that when the time is right and I do the hard work of changing me and healing myself and learning to love myself as I love  others, that the blessings in life will come.

broken wings

I really like Dougie MacLean.  He has a lot of talent not only as a song writer but a singer.  He sings from the heart which then speaks to my heart.

Someday I will get to Scotland and Ireland.

I have also decided I am going to get out more and be more social.  I shouldn’t have to go through a hazzle from my mom because I want to go out at night with friends.  She can stay a few hours by herself.  I shouldn’t have to be a prisoner in my room because she doesn’t like being along for a couple of hours.  When my sister comes I will talk to her about it and I hope they will take my side and support me in wanting to make friends and start doing things socially at night.

I would like to start going to Epic again and that is one dinner out on Friday night once a month.  I miss going and hanging out with friends.  It is only Denny’s but just being out and with other people is a big treat for me.  I might even want to go to a Halloween ball if they have it this year.  I went one year and it was so much fun.  I used to think that as a woman I could not go to events by myself.  I am going to force myself to go anyway.  Maybe after a few times I won’t have to go alone, or if I go alone will have made new friends to sit with.  I tend to be shy so this will pull me out of my shyness.

I am an adult and can’t allow my mother to control me as much as she does.  She likes to have total control over every area of my life.  That is going to be changing.
