Dimash - Give Me Your Love 2021


It is my understanding that Dimash actually wrote the music for this song and Jordan, one of his backup singers, wrote the lyrics and her husband arranged it. He continues to amaze me.

Dimash - "KIELI MEKEN" - (Holy Land)


Dimash presented this song to his "Dears" as an online concert during the pandemic. This folk-rock song was first performed at the first online concert 'DIMASH DIGITAL SHOW' in January 2021.  Dimash's Dad wrote the lyrics. Kieli Meken/ Holy Land - The song speaks of love and devotion to his fatherland and its people as well as the willingness to pass on the wealth that the ancestors left to the next generations. In Kazakhstan, Nauryz is one of the most important holidays. Nauryz symbolizes renewal, nature and the coming of the new year according to the solar calendar. Since ancient times, this day signified the beginning of the nomad - the severe winter came to an end and a new life arose in nature.

DIVA DANCE - Dimash Kudaibergen


A song that was once called the impossible song, meaning that it was written in such a way that it made it almost impossible for the human voice to transition from one note to the next and most versions of it were created in the studio by recording bits & pieces and then editing them together. Dimash sings it live and shows that indeed it can be done....(but some day we will discover that like Clark Kent, his parents discovered him as a baby in a wheat field)

Fundraiser to help Storm get Dental Implants!

Storm's GoFund Me! 


Full mouth dental implants replace all of the teeth on the upper or lower jaw. These differ from multiple implants because instead of placing an implant for each tooth, all of the new teeth can be supported on a single plate that uses four implants. When people are considering dental implants or dentures, they love the permanence of implants over the need for adhesives with dentures. They typical cost of full mouth dental implants can reach up to $30,000 without insurance.

Before your dentist or oral surgeon can place dental implants, they'll need to take X-rays or CT scans. These images allow them to see your jaw clearly and serve as the blueprint for the procedure. Diagnostic images cost between $25 and $200 depending on the number of images they need.

In some instances, you might need to have a tooth or teeth removed before your dentist can place a dental implant. The average cost for tooth extraction varies greatly. Some extractions only require local anesthesia while others require general anesthesia. Additionally, complicated procedures cost more. The cost for a tooth extraction ranges between $75 and $600.

You must have enough bone in your jaw to support the implant. If you don’t, your oral surgeon will need to perform a bone graft surgery. This procedure uses bone fragments from another part of your body, synthetic bone or bones from other sources. Bone fragments harvested from your body require two separate surgeries and are the most expensive. Charges for bone grafts cost between $250 and $3,000.

The experience of your dentist or surgeon also plays a role in the cost of dental implants. Inexperienced dentists under the supervision of a skilled professional can provide dental school implants. These are the most affordable dental implants, typically with a cost of around $500. The price for a dental implant from an experienced surgeon can cost up to $2,000. Additionally, you should expect charges from an anesthesiologist at around $500 to $800 per hour.

Update 2021

 I can't believe how long it has been since I sat down at the keyboard to actually write on the blog. 2020 was a hard year for everyone and I found it difficult to be in the writing frame of mind unless it was regarding the happenings in Washington, D.C. and I did not want to bring that over onto this blog. Twitter and Facebook served me well for those outpourings.

I did some more writing and editing of the books in the current work process.  One which is a historical fiction, based somewhat on my family history and the other a children's work with a "Reader's Digest" condensed preview online ( http://cearastory.blogspot.com/). Both require not only the creative process but research as well and that has been the most difficult and time consuming part.

In addition, I have been putting together an autobiography for my children. I had often wished that I had taken note of more of my grandparent's and parent's stories while they were still with us. By putting this into a "book" form, I hope to give them a little more of my history and an understanding of how my past affected the mother that I became.

My battle with cancer continues and it was also a factor in the lapse in writing as energy levels were some times just too low and I will admit that with everything happening during 2020, depression was an issue. I am more optimistic now.

Crash Landing on You #SwoonWorthy moments with Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin [...


A great Kdrama that is available on Netflix. South Korean woman, while hang gliding for a business promotion gets swept into North Korean space where she crash lands and is found by a North Korean patrol who then attempt to hide her until they can get her back to the south.


On a side note, the lead couple recently announced that they had begun dating in real life after filming this drama so it is fun to look for the hints in their acting.
