I am so grateful I found your channel. I had to get myself and my son out of a bad situation, which meant moving to a new place and cutting ties with very toxic people. It's helped me feel less alone to be able to watch your videos and laugh. But the biggest impact your videos have had involves my faith. After some very dark years, I had completely lost my belief in God. On a particularly bad day, I put on one of your videos and you started talking about the power of prayer. I figured what the hell, I might as well give it a shot. So I did. It was immediately like my world went from black and white to color. I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life because once I got my belief back I was able to introduce my child to the Lord. Thank you so much for giving us the most valuable gift we will ever recieve.
It's really awful and so inaccurate I wind up hating it. I can't listen. If you knew how hard the King was working to get Andrew out of Royal Lodge, it's a real issue, but the King is determined. Andrew cannot afford it anymore and the King isn't prepared to pay. He did promise his mother he'd make sure Andrew wasn't out on the street. Plus he hasn't been charged, found guilty or convicted. Had it not been his mother's jubilee year, he'd have had his day in court. He's probably glad he didn't, but. The Queen may have paid the settlement privately, I can't remember. What screwed him was that interview with Emily Maitliss. Can you believe he thought it had gone well. I think he realised when his mother asked him to put his titles into abeyance. I will say for him, he didn't argue. Apparently they both cried, she took everything except the Garter thing which I think is for life. He didn't need to be asked twice. But Scobie knows full well how hard the King has been trying to get Andrew to get his arse out of royal Lodge. He's using one room watching TV in the dark, and riding with a bit of golf occasionally. Hard times guys, hard times. He has the audacity to get them to bring the horses up to him, then he goes riding and they have to take the horses back. It's a six minute walk. He's so arrogant! The King hasn't been grumpy lately. That stuff over the pen, he'd lost his Dad, then his Mum, suddenly become king, at that point he'd barely slept in five days, was organising the funeral and checking it all, flitting around the country in a way that made no sense to his ordered mind and a waste of resources too, he was on the edge of grief, not being allowed to fall into it as he was working 24/7, at 73, and had Harry and Megan driving him insane about the princely tittles for the kids, along other things. He was entitled to a bit of grump if you ask me. He can be emotional, such as at Trooping the Colour this year. I think bring treated for cancer and working that hard suits him, but it'll get to you in the end. He's not generally a grumpy person, but he had his moments, as did his parents. If you're trying to sort out a chapter of that awful book, I don't know if I can stick with it, and I rarely start a book or a review of one and quit, but it's truly dreadful, and you make any book interesting. But if you're falling asleep in the sun by the pool (it's raining fit the third day here in London) and the book goes missing...God might be trying to say it's not worth reading something so scant with truth. By an author who can't write. It won't end the monarchy, it's ended Scobie, don't let it end you. My daughter is dyslexic and has ADD, though we now think she's on the autistic scale. My brother was so severely dyslexic, he had remedial help twice a day, to the point my dyscalculia and ADD was missed as I helped teach him, Mum left school at 14, the war changed a lot for East Londoners. She could paint and draw superbly, but was clearly dyslexic, school didn't care so I taught her too until she could take over my brother. Luckily I got to send my daughter to private school, my Dad kindly paid, with such small classes and a great understanding of dyslexia, she pretty much got over that part of it as the ADD grew worse. If home teaching is working out for you, do it, it will really help your son and you'll pick up skills that could qualify you as an SEN teacher, which might suit you better at the time or pay more for fewer hours. When all is up in the air, trust the Lord, he has you and has it all figured out. I hour out turns out to be the best year from now, a house with a pool sounds great, despite my living on a barge on the canal. Enjoy, I hope you'll feel happier and more settled now it's coming together. Don't read Endgame unless you really want to. Life's too short. Mr Biden definitely hasn't been well for some time, it's not fair on him.
@@denisecloud-miller9986 With a rotator cuff surgery & huge sling, I normally apply my makeup-left hand, left eye; right hand, right eye. I am always amazed how one applies both sides with one hand. 😅 My left eye is looking rather different these days. 😱
I definitely cannot talk and do anything else at the same time. I would be afraid to see what I looked like when I was leaving the house after doing a video
I came across your channel thanks to Lady C. I have watched everyone of your videos. You are amazing, way better than her!! Thank you for sharing this personal video. Its nice to be reminded that everyone has struggles (if that doesn't sound very selfish)
@@BuntyMcB Me, too. I was never subscribed to her channel but watched occasionally. Then I came here and couldn't believe my eyes and ears when I learned that about her reaction to a bit of ueber-justified, extremely politely worded criticism. And that was it for me with Lady C. Who, for the records, still uses her husband of 6 (?) months' several decades later, but criticizes Meghan for clinging to her Duchess title. Oh the irony. Edit typo
I also use lipstick as blush. Ha ha. I am glad you have a place you can feel settled. I think your channel will really take off over the next year. Your book reviews are so enjoyable to listen to.
I am so sick of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. I used to watch a lot about them, but not now. I'm looking forward to the Kennedy book. Wow, I saw Megyn Kelly after you mentioned the interview with the author. WOW!!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing, Cherre! I'm so glad to hear you're happier and things are better for you now that you're out of D.C. Congratulations to you and your fam on your new home!! I love watching your videos! ❤️
Hi Denise! I just found about your videos and I started from the very first one... I watched 80 videos in a week! I plan to watch all of them. Greetings from Paraguay.❤
I enjoy listening to your personal stories. I agree, sometimes a book isn't worth finishing and I am someone who always used to finish a book even if I didn't really like it. Not anymore. I've moved on from something I couldn't care about, giving me more time to read the books that I really do like. I haven't been able to get into this book, so I haven't been following closely. What's the next book on your list?? I enjoy your channel and appreciate your candor 😂
I am so happy you have found a town where you are happy. You're environment does makes a huge impact. Taking to us takes a massive weight off you. Keep positive and trust that you are exactly God intended you to be. Thank you for sharing your struggles, we are here for you ❤
I’m not surprised or bothered that the RF allows Andrew to hang around. He’s been stripped of his patronages and he’s no longer a working royal. But he’s still a member of the family. Let’s recall, he was not charged with a crime and the civil suit was settled out of court. Some say he settled to save his ailing mother the heartache of a salacious trial in her final years. If that’s true+ he’s actually behaved more honorably by her than Harry did. +I don’t know if it’s true or not; I’m just saying it might not be as black and white as we think. If the RF wants him around in a private capacity, who am I to argue?
His time in the navy should be worth something as far as considering whether he gets to stay around the RF. . Imo, his life style seemed not unusual for his class and connections. He got caught is all I can say that’s different about him.
I think Andrew is probably a bit sleazy behind the scenes but I also think he took one for the team by settling and didn’t have a chance to clear his name against the charges given the accuser already had to admit she’d recalled things “wrongly “ about another guy who took it to court. Thing is with Andrew, despite his shady personal life he did genuinely go to war for our country, non of the bunker Harry stuff, he was right in the midst of it flying decoy planes to make the enemy try and target them instead so the ships could get through. I feel based on that he should be allowed to remain quietly in the background in his house he’s ploughed £25 million into.
You are a bold Christian who walks with the Lord. I absolutely respect that. I am doing my best to be one myself. It feels scary to be out there proclaiming to be a Christian as people seem to get offended and make assumptions about who you are. If only they read the Bible and not what the media(s) say about the Bible
Same here- people in the world think Christians are supposed to be perfect; but where’s the Grace in that- God made us; He knows the secrets of our heart- but He also knows our intentions- Each day we have to start over, its normal to fall short, but acknowledge Him and restore yourself under Him every morning. We will always be growing…we don’t know everything, this is our first life also- so grace means so much; Thanking Him daily.
@@elineman7 only our Lord and Savior is the perfect being. We are so lucky to have his grace and love protect us. It is free for all. We just have to be willing to surrender. I will guarantee it is better than anything else out there in the world
Dyslexia is difficult. Got my dyslexic son through it by just reading together and making reading about the story and not about getting every word right. Too many of the 'professionals' made reading a painful chore - so I ditched that and went with what felt right. For us, it worked. Love that you are feeling happier and that things are looking up. Now if only we can find a really great book for you to get your teeth into.
Ditto. I could write pt 2 of the above statement. Our son then taught children with dyslexia and learning challenges for over 10 years. It was a joy to me as a mother to see him with them. He’s now in his 40s and still works in school system. He reads a lot, I was determined to help get him to the spot where he would read for pleasure when he was small. I wanted to open that wonderful door for him. Happiest day of my life might have been the day we got a home computer with spell check. He still can’t spell well but spell check gets him through. Happy for good changes in your families life. Only plus for OS book is it confirms everything I’ve seen about him in interviews etc. blessings to you as you muddle through.
I remember the days when I tried to work part-time and my husband's job was so demanding He worked 50 hours a week plus and travel to great deal with little ones. God bless you. You are a great mom
I have worked all my life, we were poor as kids and I wanted my kids to have more than I had, so to meet the mortgage and take them on holiday each year and give them everything I didn't have, I worked my guts out, shift-work as a nurse and all the stuff at home and running them to music lessons, horse riding instruction, sports, and I can't ever remember not being exhausted for about 30 years!! Now I've retired, my body is so worn out, I struggle every day to walk as my joins and spine are worn out. I should have worked part-time and not worried about everything so much..but sadly, it's not until it's too late we realise that we could have done things differently, but I didn't want my husband to work himself to death like my dad did, while mum sat at home, and she could have worked part-time to ease dads burden.😢
What a nice surprise to see you behind the scenes. You’re so entertaining even when yours not a book critic. And love your makeup routine. Glad you are settled and happy again.
Life is too short to read books we don’t enjoy. I am very much looking forward to Ask Not The Kennedy and the Women They Destroyed. I bought the book and look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Good morning 🌄 ! I adore your videos and send you lots of love Endgame is one of those cringey love to hate books, you are a delight to watch talking about it
As a native Washingtonian, DC is not known for its stellar educational system. Sorry that you had to go through that experience. Anyhow, I do enjoy your book reads and I can't wait for you to read the Kennedy book.
I enjoy watching your videos. You are intelligent, entertaining and people love you. Every video brings a smile to my face . I laugh every time you use an exaggerated british accent! I also enjoy your morning makeup chat. It's like listening to a dear friend share makeup tips and honest human emotion. Perhaps you will consider doing "Makeup Monday" Certainly doesn't offend me that you film in a bathroom. Please ignore anyone that submits negative comments. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND YOU KNOW YOU ARE LOVED AND APPRECIATED..❤❤❤ We all experience challenges in life. Stay strong and continue to share your love and laughter. As a woman, you may be experiencing perimenopausal symptoms. Please research and discuss with doctors and friends in your age group. Change of Life is no fun, but you will survive. I sincerely believe LIFE BEGINS AT 40! I'm an old lady who would love to relive my 40s. God bless you and keep you and your family safe.
I love these “conversations” with you… even with the kind of blurry video and the slight echoes. Enjoy learning more about my CZcams friend because we share many values and perspectives. You’re a breath of fresh air. Thanks for sharing!
Happy to get your update! I’m good with whatever you decide to do as I enjoy your channel very much . Tough times for all parents with children in the rotten public education system; some places worse than others for sure. It’s good to know there are excellent teachers doing their best within a system that doesn’t help much.
About Omid's book. I understand completely about not wanting to read it, as it's dreadful and awful. But I do appreciate you going through it, because it gives us all a chance to potentially debunk some serious lies he added in there. However I also agree with the Andrew and Charles things he shared! He's not (all) wrong
You are not flakey. I agree that the Omid Scobie book is not worth our time. Also, if you ever do merch we need a shirt that says "Lo these many years".
Here in the UK, it's inconceivable to allow old men to be vying for power. Neither Biden or Trump should be allowed to run again. 75 ought to be the maximum age limit, 45 the minimum. Whoever wins, it's a disservice to either party at this point. You have enough other people to choose from. It's too important to muck up with either of these old men. Imhro of course.
Cheere, it was interesting catching up on your year-long journey to find a new house and settle your children into a new school. It must have been strange for both you and your son for you to be teaching his fourth-grade class. I was sorry to hear that your youngest son has been diagnosed with dyslexia, but there are so many resources available today to help him learn and thrive at school and in independent study at home. I am sure with a teacher for a Mom, he will be just fine. I attended public schools in Philadelphia from second to twelfth grade back in the 70's and early 80's, and I had some wonderfully dedicated teachers. I heard that my high school Spanish teacher had won Teacher of the Year shortly after I had graduated. I feel for teachers today who are still dedicated to their profession, but also must assume the role of social worker and disciplinarian for their students, regularly expense school supplies from their own wallets and endure an endless worry about potential school shootings and effectively preparing their students during active shooter drills. I wish kids today could experience the idyllic childhoods some of us had back in the "good 'ole days" when the only things kids worried about was what to expect on the next test and having fun with their classmates doing things like playing sports, not texting each other and dealing with on-line bullying via social media. I laughed when you started complaining about Endgame...I agree, that book is complete trash. I just started listening to "Ask Not" on Audible. Although it is not read by the author, Maureen Callaghan, the book is full of juicy stories about the Kennedy men and how horribly they treated the women in their lives. I really think you will enjoy reviewing the book, and you may even attract many more subscribers in the process. Hope you are staying cool in this freaking heatwave. Enjoy the pool!
Thanks for your life update. So glad you are in a better place. Finding a good pubic school is so difficult and stressful. Trying to move to a good school district and then the city/county changes the district lines and just like that they are in a crappie school. Not everybody can afford a private school especially now. Frustration isn't even the word for it. I agree totally with you on the insantiy that is going on politically !
good to hear you found a home you will never regret prioritizing your children's education. My children were in public school from 1986-2016. I worked on the payground at recess, volunteered in the library, ran the parent group, attended conferences etc. My children got a decent public education suplemented by active parent participation. they all got through college
I have to say I will always think of D.C. as Satan's armpit from now on !!! Just want to let you know how much I truly enjoy your channel. I listen you you each night while I am suffering with insomnia. I hope your family knows how blessed they are to have you.
Granted, I live in northern Virginia rather than DC, but I find it hard to think of a city containing the Smithsonian, the Kennedy Center, the Lincoln Memorial, the Mint, Catholic University, George Washington University, etc., etc. as "Satan's Armpit.". You can certainly criticize the political scene or some of the schools without putting down what is, after all, one of the great American cities, particularly with respect to architecture and the arts.
@@detectivefiction3701 I agree with you except calling D.c. a great American. Politics on both sides have ruined what should be the best American city.
Well, poor presidents or shady politicians hardly have the power to remove the John Singer Sargent or Canaletto paintings from the National Gallery of Art, nor do they have any effect on the various performing arts institutions in DC or on its Classical architecture. All major American cities have their problems, but objectively speaking they are still great--i.e., culturally and historically important--cities.
I've always loved how shimmery your eye shadows look and wondered what brand they are! If you do another 'get ready with me!' Maybe you could mention what you use? Love your videos and don't mind if you opt to abandon books that aren't worth completing. I personally think the Kennedys will be fascinating, haven recently learned some ugly truths going way back.
It's huge your son was diagnosed w dyslexia early! I was diagnosed in the 7th grade. Intellectually, I knew I was spelling everything wrong, but I would hurry up and finish my work, so I could go back to erase and correct misspelled words. One teacher finally caught on and wouldn't let me "check" my work when I finished. Boom, Diagnosed. Algebra is gonna be struggle for your son, with LETTERS and NUMBERS mixed together! So many tears on that one. Then I became a national news editor! HAHAHA. Boy could I tell stories on that one! Can't wait for Kennedy book.
Lol, about “Endgame”. I can’t imagine reading it. 20:20: does not make you flaky…would not blame you a bit if you didn’t finish reading it. (I bought a pre-owned Spare for $5…not to read it, but to make a South Park book cover for it.) Enjoyable video. 🤗
Cheere, your book reviews are always done with integrity. Some books are just not worth your time and Scobie's book is just one of those! Honestly, dont sweat it and move onto a more worthy book when it arrives. I will be watching whichever you choose to do😊
I just came across your channel about 3 weeks ago l must admit my household chores have taken a back seat due to Spare, now l am on Revenge and l love your delivery of both books. You were brave taking this hit for your viewers. Harrys voice is excellent, your facial expressions makes it so enjoyable to watch. I am not sure if l will listen to Endgame can't stand that guy, but you have so much other content that l will certainly watch. Good luck and continuing support with your channel and best wishes for all members of your family. ❤
There is no way you are a low capacity person at ALL. Don't even think it for a second. You blow me away with all you manage to accomplish. You and your family have really been through the mill this year, and I'm so glad you have moved somewhere you feel happier, and away from that crazy-making school.
I can’t wait for the Kennedy Book. There’s also a book called ‘Chaos’ about the 60s that sounds interesting…. Maybe a suggestion? I know you started with Spare & then followed with other books about the Royals, however it’s only worth your time & our time if they add value. I absolutely loved ‘Trailer Park Parables’ & I’m sure you can find other gems to share with us.
Hi Cheere! I've been following you from the beginning and find you absolutely entertaining. I LOVE people with a sense of humor and find myself laughing at your comments and facial expressions so often! I'm 65 and a grandmother now but I listen to you and your current predicament and my heart goes out to you. I understand you not wishing to become a political channel and agree...but, your present living situation with young children that have to go through the education system in the "armpit of the nation" just makes me feel terrible for you. My mom's favorite saying to us all was "this to shall pass" and it will for you too. Hopefully your hubby gets a really great job opportunity back in the sane part of America and you and your family can carry on happily. Until then bring the kids to the Smithsonian, Holocaust Museum, Library of Congress and all the historical sites in VA. If you haven't been yet a really gorgeous trip is to Harpers Ferry the town and the National Park. Great hiking trails. Another place not too far for you is Gettysburg if you haven't been. Being a history person you should go when they have their Civil War reenactments usually around July 4th. Anyway, enjoy your time visiting all these places while you can. I love all these places but loathe driving down from MA to the "armpit" although MA is it's own armpit. Fortunately for me I happen to live in the one and only sane alcove in the state LMAO!
You are so right about the school options in Washington,DC. I’m very glad that you and your family have found a place you can call home and be happy. PS. Keep up the great work.
I agree, Cheere D., Jada and Omid are not worth our time or money. This was interesting today, a novella on the struggles of a young mother and teacher in a dysfunctional school. I think you have the aptitude to be an incredible writer. I like how you are using your limited time so well by putting on your make-up while talking to us! ❤
Dear Miss Denise I was at first not knowing where you were going, thought you were rumbling but then found that I agreed with every single thing you said. Especially the politics. People are so scared to speak the truth on that subject but at some point, you have to take your stand, even if it means losing followers. I like you a lot and I think its not a waste of my time to listen to you unlike so many other channels these days. 100% agreed with everything you said about Scobie and yes, don't finish the book. What for? We already know what Meghan thinks and is. (and this was her book under the guise of another writer). I will always always let you complete your thoughts, tangent, opinion, whatever you are expressing, though it might take you a while to get there, plus, why on earth are you doing your make up whilst you talk? Its actually amusing now that I think about it. Anyway, you are one of the few people who I can listen to out there without dreading that you'll turn evil or coward or hypocritical. Really enjoy what you are doing, (your channel) You go girl!
Sometimes people will do a “get ready with me” segment, as this one is titled. This phrase means they will talk about something or tell a story while they are getting ready for the day as they do their skincare and put on their face.
I thought my granddaughter might have dyslexia at 5. She just could not learn to read and was writing her letters backwards and she is a very bright child. Her teacher in the 2nd grade suggested she might have a tracking eye problem. After seeing an ophthalmologist, they thought this was her problem. After 3 months of eye training at his office and suggestions to help her track words, she improved 100%.
That is SO intense Cheere! Holy cow, if there is anything u r definitely NOT, it’s a “low capacity person”…it’s clear you bring your whole self to every endeavor. Raising your kids teaching being a military family, mom and wife, is incredibly demanding. On top of everything, you look GORJUS, I hope everything continues to feel situated for you and your family!
Great video Cheere! Theres something very captivating watching a woman put on her makeup, i was comparing techniques throughout! I also use lipstick as a blush, glad you found a solution to your work problems, it sounds like a bumpy rd youve been down but then again, you dont know till you try and it wasn't the right fit for you, good luck in your new home though 🤗
Cheere, I had a very similar experience at a school I worked at last year. The teachers were mostly nice, but it was a disorganized place, the students were chaos, the parents were white trash, and my daughter wasn't getting a good education at her school. My husband and I also figured out that we can't keep it together at home when we're both working full-time. I don't have the stamina for that. I only stayed a short while after I figured out which way the wind was blowing and resolved to homeschool the girls (at the time a rising kindergartner and second grader) starting last fall. Teachers have been leaving in droves where we live and it's so sad. I used to love teaching. The good news is my kids are getting a good education now and I'm joining forces with some other teachers- turned-homeschoolers this fall to be involved in a new co-op that I think is going to be really good.
You are such an astute reader, I think it is up to you to decide what is worth your while and ours! Enjoy your channel, hope it continues to grow as you will be T home more
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and part of your life dear Cheere Denise. I wish you all the best, you can do it! I admire you very much, your intelligence, opinions, education, warmness, how you handle family/work/life/CZcams. You are the real role model. May be more people as open and intelligent and empathic as you. Thank you.
I worked at a small private Christian school, too, so we could afford tuition however working there allowed you to see what was not working at that school and that led us to homeschooling! My boys are now 22 and 20 years old, I miss the early years of homeschooling making lapbooks and memorizing poetry. I'm so grateful we had all that time together!
Because a school has the Word Christian in it's name, does not mean it will be a Christian. I enjoy your book reviews, but please find a book you really enjoy, so we can enjoy it with you. Not every book is worth your time. Enjoy your new home.
I think it would be great to do a final ending that completes endgame so your followers have confidence you will finish what you start even if you finish it in an abbreviated fashion. There are a couple books that didn’t get finished for some good reasons. I love your channel and your reviews!
Hi Cheere-I was born and raised in SW VA, and still live in the area with my family. I hope you and your family are able to take advantage of all of the historical opportunities in VA outside of DC. Plus there is so much to do outdoors. I’m glad your family is settled in a place that works better for you. Looking forward to continued reviews!
You are so pretty!! ❤ an absolute delight Cheere 😊. I was a teacher and had so many of the struggles you mentioned esp about being given materials and expected to formulate my own curriculum for each and every lesson. Quite impossible for the long term and exceptionally exhausting! I finally decided to not teach and for me it’s been a good decision that has increased my quality of life.
Hi! I love Virginia, it’s such a beautiful state. My son lives in DC, about a mile from the White House. It really is a city of lots of things to do. I hope you settle in nicely. When you mentioned how funny your son is of course I thought of you because you are so funny too. I have really enjoyed your programs. You really bring such fun to your readings. Looking forward to the next video. Stay safe, and enjoy.
I enjoy your contend - u are great to listen to - please keep doing the history reviews - ie Windsors and Mountbattens. - plus do some reviews of historical documentaries. Thanks
Fun video! No problem for me ditching the Scobie book. It’s kind of painful. Although I always enjoy your take on things. I just finished the new Kennedy book and am dying to hear your reactions!
Because of your intelligence and someone who seems to be one who’s always keeping a finger on the pulse, I believe that your sons will benefit immensely from your home schooling. (I am not disciplined to home school, but I do feel that given today’s craziness, home schooling is what I think everyone should do!) I completely agree with your political sentiments, btw! Completely!!
You are doing a great job Cheer. Time goes so quickly before you know it this time will just be a memory . I love these videos when you share putting on your makeup - very brave of you I’m not sure I could do that. I’m so pleased you love where you are now living. Enjoy everyday. I’m loving your book reviews too thank you
I’m 74 and I wore eyeliner every day as a young woman (had to stop when the skin around my eyes started sagging a bit; the liner just would not sit right any more) and I don’t know how I did it! I must have never touched my eyes at all during the day, because the liner never smeared (and they didn’t have no-smear eyeliner way back then). Now, I rub my eyes several times a day (but gently), dislodge “sleepers” with my fingernail, put in eye drops for comfort…I would have to train myself hard not to touch my eyes.
As someone who was entirely homeschooled, K-12, I cannot recommend it enough. You can't underestimate the personal attention of a mom and her kids versus an exhausted teacher and thirty to forty different kids an hour. Educationally, emotionally, all of it.
“Satan’s armpit”. 😂. Great way to describe DC.
So your son is super intelligent and funny... I can't imagine where THOSE traits came from... 😂
Right! Lol 😆 she’s so funny and smart and a joy to watch ❤
I live in the UK and if I was bringing up my children today 100percent I would be home schooling. Your faith will always guide you ❤️❤️❤️🏴
I agree with you! We’ve all been seeing the videos of Biden struggling for years and now suddenly everyone acts like this is new after the debate!
We had plenty of time LBJ set a precedent for not running again. Not the end of the world having one term.

I am so grateful I found your channel. I had to get myself and my son out of a bad situation, which meant moving to a new place and cutting ties with very toxic people. It's helped me feel less alone to be able to watch your videos and laugh. But the biggest impact your videos have had involves my faith. After some very dark years, I had completely lost my belief in God. On a particularly bad day, I put on one of your videos and you started talking about the power of prayer. I figured what the hell, I might as well give it a shot. So I did. It was immediately like my world went from black and white to color. I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life because once I got my belief back I was able to introduce my child to the Lord. Thank you so much for giving us the most valuable gift we will ever recieve.
What a beautiful story to share. I'm so glad you are in a better place.
Thank you!
If you want to quit End Game, fine with me. I don’t believe in punishing myself by forcing myself to endure books I don’t like!
I had to quit, even Cheere couldn't make it bearable for me. I'll patiently wait for the next series
I say quit. I am not watching it. Over them.
We really appreciate your diligence, but we care about YOU more - stop reading that trash if it’s not giving you joy! ❤
🙏🏼❤️
It's really awful and so inaccurate I wind up hating it. I can't listen.
If you knew how hard the King was working to get Andrew out of Royal Lodge, it's a real issue, but the King is determined. Andrew cannot afford it anymore and the King isn't prepared to pay. He did promise his mother he'd make sure Andrew wasn't out on the street. Plus he hasn't been charged, found guilty or convicted. Had it not been his mother's jubilee year, he'd have had his day in court. He's probably glad he didn't, but. The Queen may have paid the settlement privately, I can't remember. What screwed him was that interview with Emily Maitliss. Can you believe he thought it had gone well. I think he realised when his mother asked him to put his titles into abeyance. I will say for him, he didn't argue. Apparently they both cried, she took everything except the Garter thing which I think is for life. He didn't need to be asked twice. But Scobie knows full well how hard the King has been trying to get Andrew to get his arse out of royal Lodge. He's using one room watching TV in the dark, and riding with a bit of golf occasionally. Hard times guys, hard times. He has the audacity to get them to bring the horses up to him, then he goes riding and they have to take the horses back. It's a six minute walk. He's so arrogant!
The King hasn't been grumpy lately. That stuff over the pen, he'd lost his Dad, then his Mum, suddenly become king, at that point he'd barely slept in five days, was organising the funeral and checking it all, flitting around the country in a way that made no sense to his ordered mind and a waste of resources too, he was on the edge of grief, not being allowed to fall into it as he was working 24/7, at 73, and had Harry and Megan driving him insane about the princely tittles for the kids, along other things. He was entitled to a bit of grump if you ask me. He can be emotional, such as at Trooping the Colour this year. I think bring treated for cancer and working that hard suits him, but it'll get to you in the end. He's not generally a grumpy person, but he had his moments, as did his parents.
If you're trying to sort out a chapter of that awful book, I don't know if I can stick with it, and I rarely start a book or a review of one and quit, but it's truly dreadful, and you make any book interesting. But if you're falling asleep in the sun by the pool (it's raining fit the third day here in London) and the book goes missing...God might be trying to say it's not worth reading something so scant with truth. By an author who can't write.
It won't end the monarchy, it's ended Scobie, don't let it end you.
My daughter is dyslexic and has ADD, though we now think she's on the autistic scale. My brother was so severely dyslexic, he had remedial help twice a day, to the point my dyscalculia and ADD was missed as I helped teach him, Mum left school at 14, the war changed a lot for East Londoners. She could paint and draw superbly, but was clearly dyslexic, school didn't care so I taught her too until she could take over my brother.
Luckily I got to send my daughter to private school, my Dad kindly paid, with such small classes and a great understanding of dyslexia, she pretty much got over that part of it as the ADD grew worse.
If home teaching is working out for you, do it, it will really help your son and you'll pick up skills that could qualify you as an SEN teacher, which might suit you better at the time or pay more for fewer hours. When all is up in the air, trust the Lord, he has you and has it all figured out.
I hour out turns out to be the best year from now, a house with a pool sounds great, despite my living on a barge on the canal. Enjoy, I hope you'll feel happier and more settled now it's coming together.
Don't read Endgame unless you really want to. Life's too short.
Mr Biden definitely hasn't been well for some time, it's not fair on him.
I could never put my makeup on and talk at the same time! Great job! Your comments were interesting this morning.
@@denisecloud-miller9986 With a rotator cuff surgery & huge sling, I normally apply my makeup-left hand, left eye; right hand, right eye. I am always amazed how one applies both sides with one hand. 😅 My left eye is looking rather different these days. 😱
I definitely cannot talk and do anything else at the same time. I would be afraid to see what I looked like when I was leaving the house after doing a video
I came across your channel thanks to Lady C. I have watched everyone of your videos. You are amazing, way better than her!! Thank you for sharing this personal video. Its nice to be reminded that everyone has struggles (if that doesn't sound very selfish)
Came here for the same reason 😂. I'm still trying to catch up in the archives.
Riiiiiiight!!!!
I ditched Lady C when she was so nasty. I’d not really liked her attitude but she crossed the line going after Cheere who I love!
@@BuntyMcB Me, too. I was never subscribed to her channel but watched occasionally.
Then I came here and couldn't believe my eyes and ears when I learned that about her reaction to a bit of ueber-justified, extremely politely worded criticism.
And that was it for me with Lady C.
Who, for the records, still uses her husband of 6 (?) months' several decades later, but criticizes Meghan for clinging to her Duchess title. Oh the irony.
Edit typo
Same ❤😂🎉
Hi Cheere😊 I'm watching your video in the top deck of a bus in a rainy and cold afternoon in London. Xxx
I remember those days! ☔️
I also use lipstick as blush. Ha ha. I am glad you have a place you can feel settled. I think your channel will really take off over the next year. Your book reviews are so enjoyable to listen to.
Me too!
I enjoy all of your videos. I have come to care about you and your family so a "catch up" report is delightful. Thank you.
Agreed❤
I am so sick of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. I used to watch a lot about them, but not now. I'm looking forward to the Kennedy book. Wow, I saw Megyn Kelly after you mentioned the interview with the author. WOW!!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing, Cherre! I'm so glad to hear you're happier and things are better for you now that you're out of D.C. Congratulations to you and your fam on your new home!! I love watching your videos! ❤️
Really do not mind where you broadcast from, just hope you get all settled in your home and work take care love to you and family xxxxx
You're clearly not low capacity. You're self-aware enough to make sure to prioritise what is important to you and your family ❤
Hi Denise! I just found about your videos and I started from the very first one... I watched 80 videos in a week! I plan to watch all of them. Greetings from Paraguay.❤
Well done! ❤
If I need a good laugh I just throw on the Spare playlist.
@@GoggyL29 LOL 😂
I enjoy listening to your personal stories. I agree, sometimes a book isn't worth finishing and I am someone who always used to finish a book even if I didn't really like it. Not anymore. I've moved on from something I couldn't care about, giving me more time to read the books that I really do like. I haven't been able to get into this book, so I haven't been following closely. What's the next book on your list?? I enjoy your channel and appreciate your candor 😂
I am so happy you have found a town where you are happy. You're environment does makes a huge impact.
Taking to us takes a massive weight off you. Keep positive and trust that you are exactly God intended you to be.
Thank you for sharing your struggles, we are here for you ❤
I’m not surprised or bothered that the RF allows Andrew to hang around. He’s been stripped of his patronages and he’s no longer a working royal. But he’s still a member of the family. Let’s recall, he was not charged with a crime and the civil suit was settled out of court. Some say he settled to save his ailing mother the heartache of a salacious trial in her final years. If that’s true+ he’s actually behaved more honorably by her than Harry did.
+I don’t know if it’s true or not; I’m just saying it might not be as black and white as we think. If the RF wants him around in a private capacity, who am I to argue?
His time in the navy should be worth something as far as considering whether he gets to stay around the RF. . Imo, his life style seemed not unusual for his class and connections. He got caught is all I can say that’s different about him.
@@KimNTennessee I couldn’t agree more. Well said!
Exactly. In my book Andrew is guilty of being an insufferable bore with dubious taste in friends, that's all.
Agree
I think Andrew is probably a bit sleazy behind the scenes but I also think he took one for the team by settling and didn’t have a chance to clear his name against the charges given the accuser already had to admit she’d recalled things “wrongly “ about another guy who took it to court. Thing is with Andrew, despite his shady personal life he did genuinely go to war for our country, non of the bunker Harry stuff, he was right in the midst of it flying decoy planes to make the enemy try and target them instead so the ships could get through. I feel based on that he should be allowed to remain quietly in the background in his house he’s ploughed £25 million into.
We do not have to read anymore Endgame. It is boring as all heck.
I heard a wonderful phrase from Douglas Murray yesterday.
'Don't get pushed to the sidelines of your own life'.
Wise words.
Hope it works out for you.
Amen!
We all need to stay strong. The whole world seems to be in a very tenuous place !! Enjoy your summer in your new home. :)
Knowing that you’ve been stressed, It’s super impressive that you’ve produced such wonderful videos, Cheere! Thank you🙏🏻
You are a bold Christian who walks with the Lord. I absolutely respect that. I am doing my best to be one myself. It feels scary to be out there proclaiming to be a Christian as people seem to get offended and make assumptions about who you are. If only they read the Bible and not what the media(s) say about the Bible
Same here- people in the world think Christians are supposed to be perfect; but where’s the Grace in that- God made us; He knows the secrets of our heart- but He also knows our intentions- Each day we have to start over, its normal to fall short, but acknowledge Him and restore yourself under Him every morning. We will always be growing…we don’t know everything, this is our first life also- so grace means so much; Thanking Him daily.
@@elineman7 only our Lord and Savior is the perfect being. We are so lucky to have his grace and love protect us. It is free for all. We just have to be willing to surrender. I will guarantee it is better than anything else out there in the world
Dyslexia is difficult. Got my dyslexic son through it by just reading together and making reading about the story and not about getting every word right. Too many of the 'professionals' made reading a painful chore - so I ditched that and went with what felt right. For us, it worked.
Love that you are feeling happier and that things are looking up. Now if only we can find a really great book for you to get your teeth into.
Ditto. I could write pt 2 of the above statement. Our son then taught children with dyslexia and learning challenges for over 10 years. It was a joy to me as a mother to see him with them. He’s now in his 40s and still works in school system. He reads a lot, I was determined to help get him to the spot where he would read for pleasure when he was small. I wanted to open that wonderful door for him. Happiest day of my life might have been the day we got a home computer with spell check. He still can’t spell well but spell check gets him through. Happy for good changes in your families life.
Only plus for OS book is it confirms everything I’ve seen about him in interviews etc. blessings to you as you muddle through.
I applaud your sticking to EndGame. I have been hanging with you when I can. But it is hard going.
I remember the days when I tried to work part-time and my husband's job was so demanding He worked 50 hours a week plus and travel to great deal with little ones. God bless you. You are a great mom
I have worked all my life, we were poor as kids and I wanted my kids to have more than I had, so to meet the mortgage and take them on holiday each year and give them everything I didn't have, I worked my guts out, shift-work as a nurse and all the stuff at home and running them to music lessons, horse riding instruction, sports, and I can't ever remember not being exhausted for about 30 years!! Now I've retired, my body is so worn out, I struggle every day to walk as my joins and spine are worn out. I should have worked part-time and not worried about everything so much..but sadly, it's not until it's too late we realise that we could have done things differently, but I didn't want my husband to work himself to death like my dad did, while mum sat at home, and she could have worked part-time to ease dads burden.😢
Drop that boring book. There are so many other good and interesting books. I like these little visits with you too
I love your "voice." Your insights are fantastic. Please keep up with the Scobie book.
I love when you are real with your audience , I for one appreciate it ❤
What a nice surprise to see you behind the scenes. You’re so entertaining even when yours not a book critic. And love your makeup routine. Glad you are settled and happy again.
You have my vote to put down Scobie as soon as you get the Kennedy book. I saw Megan's interview and I think that book will be JUICY!
I agree! Just finished the Kennedy book and can’t wait for Cheere’s point of view. I say dump Endgame and bring on the Kennedys and the Beckhams !😮
Me too.
Life is too short to read books we don’t enjoy. I am very much looking forward to Ask Not The Kennedy and the Women They Destroyed. I bought the book and look forward to hearing your thoughts.
You aren’t flaky Cheere. You are keeping it real. Many of us appreciate that. Looking forward to what comes next! Thank you!
Good morning 🌄 !
I adore your videos and send you lots of love
Endgame is one of those cringey love to hate books, you are a delight to watch talking about it
As a native Washingtonian, DC is not known for its stellar educational system. Sorry that you had to go through that experience. Anyhow, I do enjoy your book reads and I can't wait for you to read the Kennedy book.
Life is too short for bad books (or bad coffee).
Amen.
I second that!
I enjoy watching your videos. You are intelligent, entertaining and people love you. Every video brings a smile to my face . I laugh every time you use an exaggerated british accent! I also enjoy your morning makeup chat. It's like listening to a dear friend share makeup tips and honest human emotion. Perhaps you will consider doing "Makeup Monday" Certainly doesn't offend me that you film in a bathroom.
Please ignore anyone that submits negative comments. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND YOU KNOW YOU ARE LOVED AND APPRECIATED..❤❤❤
We all experience challenges in life. Stay strong and continue to share your love and laughter.
As a woman, you may be experiencing perimenopausal symptoms. Please research and discuss with doctors and friends in your age group. Change of Life is no fun, but you will survive. I sincerely believe LIFE BEGINS AT 40! I'm an old lady who would love to relive my 40s. God bless you and keep you and your family safe.
I love these “conversations” with you… even with the kind of blurry video and the slight echoes. Enjoy learning more about my CZcams friend because we share many values and perspectives. You’re a breath of fresh air. Thanks for sharing!
Happy to get your update! I’m good with whatever you decide to do as I enjoy your channel very much . Tough times for all parents with children in the rotten public education system; some places worse than others for sure. It’s good to know there are excellent teachers doing their best within a system that doesn’t help much.
About Omid's book. I understand completely about not wanting to read it, as it's dreadful and awful. But I do appreciate you going through it, because it gives us all a chance to potentially debunk some serious lies he added in there. However I also agree with the Andrew and Charles things he shared! He's not (all) wrong
My daughter graduated from public school this year. We barely got her out in time - public schools are going downhill fast.
From the UK I have watched Biden in disbelief for years. They are now saying he was just tired and had a cold!! How can his wife urge him on?
I adore your channel and your commentary. Thanks for the personal update, I enjoy those as well.
You are not flakey. I agree that the Omid Scobie book is not worth our time. Also, if you ever do merch we need a shirt that says "Lo these many years".
Here in the UK, it's inconceivable to allow old men to be vying for power. Neither Biden or Trump should be allowed to run again. 75 ought to be the maximum age limit, 45 the minimum. Whoever wins, it's a disservice to either party at this point. You have enough other people to choose from. It's too important to muck up with either of these old men. Imhro of course.
Totally agree! And honestly, 75 is too old for POTUS.
US constitution: at least 35 and a naturally born citizen
Moses was 80 when he led his people out of Egypt. It’s not age. It’s cognitive ability that is the issue.
I agree 100%! We need new laws! Age limits and Term Limits!
@@niniruffles856 Neither Trump nor Biden is Moses. Stop it.
You’re bloody brilliant 😂❤🎉
Cheere, it was interesting catching up on your year-long journey to find a new house and settle your children into a new school. It must have been strange for both you and your son for you to be teaching his fourth-grade class. I was sorry to hear that your youngest son has been diagnosed with dyslexia, but there are so many resources available today to help him learn and thrive at school and in independent study at home. I am sure with a teacher for a Mom, he will be just fine. I attended public schools in Philadelphia from second to twelfth grade back in the 70's and early 80's, and I had some wonderfully dedicated teachers. I heard that my high school Spanish teacher had won Teacher of the Year shortly after I had graduated. I feel for teachers today who are still dedicated to their profession, but also must assume the role of social worker and disciplinarian for their students, regularly expense school supplies from their own wallets and endure an endless worry about potential school shootings and effectively preparing their students during active shooter drills. I wish kids today could experience the idyllic childhoods some of us had back in the "good 'ole days" when the only things kids worried about was what to expect on the next test and having fun with their classmates doing things like playing sports, not texting each other and dealing with on-line bullying via social media. I laughed when you started complaining about Endgame...I agree, that book is complete trash. I just started listening to "Ask Not" on Audible. Although it is not read by the author, Maureen Callaghan, the book is full of juicy stories about the Kennedy men and how horribly they treated the women in their lives. I really think you will enjoy reviewing the book, and you may even attract many more subscribers in the process. Hope you are staying cool in this freaking heatwave. Enjoy the pool!
Thanks for your life update. So glad you are in a better place. Finding a good pubic school is so difficult and stressful. Trying to move to a good school district and then the city/county changes the district lines and just like that they are in a crappie school. Not everybody can afford a private school especially now. Frustration isn't even the word for it. I agree totally with you on the insantiy that is going on politically !
good to hear you found a home you will never regret prioritizing your children's education. My children were in public school from 1986-2016. I worked on the payground at recess, volunteered in the library, ran the parent group, attended conferences etc. My children got a decent public education suplemented by active parent participation. they all got through college
Me too!
I have to say I will always think of D.C. as Satan's armpit from now on !!! Just want to let you know how much I truly enjoy your channel. I listen you you each night while I am suffering with insomnia. I hope your family knows how blessed they are to have you.
Granted, I live in northern Virginia rather than DC, but I find it hard to think of a city containing the Smithsonian, the Kennedy Center, the Lincoln Memorial, the Mint, Catholic University, George Washington University, etc., etc. as "Satan's Armpit.". You can certainly criticize the political scene or some of the schools without putting down what is, after all, one of the great American cities, particularly with respect to architecture and the arts.
@@detectivefiction3701 I agree with you except calling D.c. a great American. Politics on both sides have ruined what should be the best American city.
Well, poor presidents or shady politicians hardly have the power to remove the John Singer Sargent or Canaletto paintings from the National Gallery of Art, nor do they have any effect on the various performing arts institutions in DC or on its Classical architecture. All major American cities have their problems, but objectively speaking they are still great--i.e., culturally and historically important--cities.
Thank you Cheere for sharing your thoughts. Love your videos!
Oooh I love this 💗 it's like face timing a friend ☺️
I've always loved how shimmery your eye shadows look and wondered what brand they are! If you do another 'get ready with me!' Maybe you could mention what you use? Love your videos and don't mind if you opt to abandon books that aren't worth completing. I personally think the Kennedys will be fascinating, haven recently learned some ugly truths going way back.
Love your channel ❤️
Please drop the Scobie book!
It's huge your son was diagnosed w dyslexia early! I was diagnosed in the 7th grade. Intellectually, I knew I was spelling everything wrong, but I would hurry up and finish my work, so I could go back to erase and correct misspelled words. One teacher finally caught on and wouldn't let me "check" my work when I finished. Boom, Diagnosed. Algebra is gonna be struggle for your son, with LETTERS and NUMBERS mixed together! So many tears on that one. Then I became a national news editor! HAHAHA. Boy could I tell stories on that one! Can't wait for Kennedy book.
Lol, about “Endgame”.
I can’t imagine reading it.
20:20: does not make you flaky…would not blame you a bit if you didn’t finish reading it.
(I bought a pre-owned Spare for $5…not to read it, but to make a South Park book cover for it.)
Enjoyable video. 🤗
I love that you use lipstick as blush! SAME!! Congratulations 🎉 on your decisions. Best of luck sweet lady!
Cheere, your book reviews are always done with integrity. Some books are just not worth your time and Scobie's book is just one of those! Honestly, dont sweat it and move onto a more worthy book when it arrives. I will be watching whichever you choose to do😊
That was very sweet, Cheere, thanks for exposing yourself. You’re brave and strong 💪🏽
I just came across your channel about 3 weeks ago l must admit my household chores have taken a back seat due to Spare, now l am on Revenge and l love your delivery of both books. You were brave taking this hit for your viewers. Harrys voice is excellent, your facial expressions makes it so enjoyable to watch.
I am not sure if l will listen to Endgame can't stand that guy, but you have so much other content that l will certainly watch. Good luck and continuing support with your channel and best wishes for all members of your family. ❤
Whatever you choose I'll be here 🎉
There is no way you are a low capacity person at ALL. Don't even think it for a second. You blow me away with all you manage to accomplish. You and your family have really been through the mill this year, and I'm so glad you have moved somewhere you feel happier, and away from that crazy-making school.
Thank you. Living on the swamp politically is awful, but I like it geographically.
I can’t wait for the Kennedy Book.
There’s also a book called ‘Chaos’ about the 60s that sounds interesting…. Maybe a suggestion? I know you started with Spare & then followed with other books about the Royals, however it’s only worth your time & our time if they add value. I absolutely loved ‘Trailer Park Parables’ & I’m sure you can find other gems to share with us.
I read Chaos and agree, it is great. Very eye opening. I’ve passed my copy around to many people.
I’ve read Chaos and it was very thought-provoking. Give it a try
Hi Cheere! I've been following you from the beginning and find you absolutely entertaining. I LOVE people with a sense of humor and find myself laughing at your comments and facial expressions so often! I'm 65 and a grandmother now but I listen to you and your current predicament and my heart goes out to you. I understand you not wishing to become a political channel and agree...but, your present living situation with young children that have to go through the education system in the "armpit of the nation" just makes me feel terrible for you. My mom's favorite saying to us all was "this to shall pass" and it will for you too. Hopefully your hubby gets a really great job opportunity back in the sane part of America and you and your family can carry on happily. Until then bring the kids to the Smithsonian, Holocaust Museum, Library of Congress and all the historical sites in VA. If you haven't been yet a really gorgeous trip is to Harpers Ferry the town and the National Park. Great hiking trails. Another place not too far for you is Gettysburg if you haven't been. Being a history person you should go when they have their Civil War reenactments usually around July 4th. Anyway, enjoy your time visiting all these places while you can. I love all these places but loathe driving down from MA to the "armpit" although MA is it's own armpit. Fortunately for me I happen to live in the one and only sane alcove in the state LMAO!
You are so right about the school options in Washington,DC. I’m very glad that you and your family have found a place you can call home and be happy. PS. Keep up the great work.
When you chat like this, you’re even more likeable, as you honestly share your personality, observations and life experiences!
P. S. So glad life seems to have taken a big turn towards the positive for you!
I agree, Cheere D., Jada and Omid are not worth our time or money. This was interesting today, a novella on the struggles of a young mother and teacher in a dysfunctional school. I think you have the aptitude to be an incredible writer. I like how you are using your limited time so well by putting on your make-up while talking to us! ❤
Dear Miss Denise
I was at first not knowing where you were going, thought you were rumbling but then found that I agreed with every single thing you said. Especially the politics. People are so scared to speak the truth on that subject but at some point, you have to take your stand, even if it means losing followers.
I like you a lot and I think its not a waste of my time to listen to you unlike so many other channels these days. 100% agreed with everything you said about Scobie and yes, don't finish the book. What for? We already know what Meghan thinks and is. (and this was her book under the guise of another writer). I will always always let you complete your thoughts, tangent, opinion, whatever you are expressing, though it might take you a while to get there, plus, why on earth are you doing your make up whilst you talk? Its actually amusing now that I think about it. Anyway, you are one of the few people who I can listen to out there without dreading that you'll turn evil or coward or hypocritical.
Really enjoy what you are doing, (your channel) You go girl!
Sometimes people will do a “get ready with me” segment, as this one is titled.
This phrase means they will talk about something or tell a story while they are getting ready for the day as they do their skincare and put on their face.
I thought my granddaughter might have dyslexia at 5. She just could not learn to read and was writing her letters backwards and she is a very bright child. Her teacher in the 2nd grade suggested she might have a tracking eye problem. After seeing an ophthalmologist, they thought this was her problem. After 3 months of eye training at his office and suggestions to help her track words, she improved 100%.
I just love your channel! ❤
Really looking forward to the Kennedy book.
That is SO intense Cheere! Holy cow, if there is anything u r definitely NOT, it’s a “low capacity person”…it’s clear you bring your whole self to every endeavor. Raising your kids teaching being a military family, mom and wife, is incredibly demanding. On top of everything, you look GORJUS, I hope everything continues to feel situated for you and your family!
I love seeing your videos!!
Great video Cheere! Theres something very captivating watching a woman put on her makeup, i was comparing techniques throughout! I also use lipstick as a blush, glad you found a solution to your work problems, it sounds like a bumpy rd youve been down but then again, you dont know till you try and it wasn't the right fit for you, good luck in your new home though 🤗
Cheere, I had a very similar experience at a school I worked at last year. The teachers were mostly nice, but it was a disorganized place, the students were chaos, the parents were white trash, and my daughter wasn't getting a good education at her school. My husband and I also figured out that we can't keep it together at home when we're both working full-time. I don't have the stamina for that. I only stayed a short while after I figured out which way the wind was blowing and resolved to homeschool the girls (at the time a rising kindergartner and second grader) starting last fall. Teachers have been leaving in droves where we live and it's so sad. I used to love teaching. The good news is my kids are getting a good education now and I'm joining forces with some other teachers- turned-homeschoolers this fall to be involved in a new co-op that I think is going to be really good.
You are such an astute reader, I think it is up to you to decide what is worth your while and ours! Enjoy your channel, hope it continues to grow as you will be T home more
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and part of your life dear Cheere Denise. I wish you all the best, you can do it! I admire you very much, your intelligence, opinions, education, warmness, how you handle family/work/life/CZcams. You are the real role model. May be more people as open and intelligent and empathic as you. Thank you.
I am very happy that you are enjoying your new home. I am a strong advocate for Home Schooling. All the best to you and your family.
I worked at a small private Christian school, too, so we could afford tuition however working there allowed you to see what was not working at that school and that led us to homeschooling! My boys are now 22 and 20 years old, I miss the early years of homeschooling making lapbooks and memorizing poetry. I'm so grateful we had all that time together!
Homeschool gf! My sons are thriving in it! ❤
Because a school has the Word Christian in it's name, does not mean it will be a Christian.
I enjoy your book reviews, but please find a book you really enjoy, so we can enjoy it with you. Not every book is worth your time.
Enjoy your new home.
I really enjoyed that! Thanks for sharing so openly. I’m always interested in your opinions, whatever the subject.
I would certainly forgive you for not wanting to finish Omid's feeble work of propaganda. Your channel, your call!!!
I think it would be great to do a final ending that completes endgame so your followers have confidence you will finish what you start even if you finish it in an abbreviated fashion. There are a couple books that didn’t get finished for some good reasons. I love your channel and your reviews!
Hi Cheere-I was born and raised in SW VA, and still live in the area with my family. I hope you and your family are able to take advantage of all of the historical opportunities in VA outside of DC. Plus there is so much to do outdoors. I’m glad your family is settled in a place that works better for you. Looking forward to continued reviews!
You are so pretty!! ❤ an absolute delight Cheere 😊. I was a teacher and had so many of the struggles you mentioned esp about being given materials and expected to formulate my own curriculum for each and every lesson. Quite impossible for the long term and exceptionally exhausting! I finally decided to not teach and for me it’s been a good decision that has increased my quality of life.
Hi!
I love Virginia, it’s such a beautiful state. My son lives in DC, about a mile from the White House. It really is a city of lots of things to do. I hope you settle in nicely.
When you mentioned how funny your son is of course I thought of you because you are so funny too.
I have really enjoyed your programs. You really bring such fun to your readings.
Looking forward to the next video. Stay safe, and enjoy.
I enjoy your contend - u are great to listen to - please keep doing the history reviews - ie Windsors and Mountbattens. - plus do some reviews of historical documentaries. Thanks
COVID really threw the truth out the window while everyone was at home staring at the roof avoiding the horrible world outside
I will listening any book you choose to review. ANY ❤
Fun video! No problem for me ditching the Scobie book. It’s kind of painful. Although I always enjoy your take on things. I just finished the new Kennedy book and am dying to hear your reactions!
Because of your intelligence and someone who seems to be one who’s always keeping a finger on the pulse, I believe that your sons will benefit immensely from your home schooling. (I am not disciplined to home school, but I do feel that given today’s craziness, home schooling is what I think everyone should do!)
I completely agree with your political sentiments, btw! Completely!!
Thank you for sharing your personal life with us. I think your channel is awesome and I've enjoyed your content a lot. Thanks again for sharing.
Love your insight in the videos. Keep going, you are fabulous.
You are doing a great job Cheer. Time goes so quickly before you know it this time will just be a memory . I love these videos when you share putting on your makeup - very brave of you I’m not sure I could do that. I’m so pleased you love where you are now living. Enjoy everyday. I’m loving your book reviews too thank you
Take it from a 70 year old, rubbing your eyes that hard will cause wrinkles. You are a beautiful, smart and witty woman.
As a 60 y.o. with bags and damage from thyroid eye disease, I watched her eye routine with envy and fascination.
I’m 74 and I wore eyeliner every day as a young woman (had to stop when the skin around my eyes started sagging a bit; the liner just would not sit right any more) and I don’t know how I did it! I must have never touched my eyes at all during the day, because the liner never smeared (and they didn’t have no-smear eyeliner way back then). Now, I rub my eyes several times a day (but gently), dislodge “sleepers” with my fingernail, put in eye drops for comfort…I would have to train myself hard not to touch my eyes.
As someone who was entirely homeschooled, K-12, I cannot recommend it enough. You can't underestimate the personal attention of a mom and her kids versus an exhausted teacher and thirty to forty different kids an hour. Educationally, emotionally, all of it.
I recently followed you on insta and your family is so cute!! Love your videos, lots of love from Germany 💕
