Color me surprised.....

Posted by Cheri22

okay, if you are to color me surprised, what color would I be?

I know it sounds silly but this is really something I was thinking about the other day. Now when you are feeling scared, people attach "yellow" as the color. When your feeling sad, people ask if your feeling "blue".. when you think of death, people usually think black or white.... love of course is red.. so what color would I be if I was surprised?

I went to a wedding on the weekend. It was located up on Grouse Mountain. It was POURING up there. I guess you would be able to say it was raining cats and dogs! My husband dropped us off at the front where we have to go and ride this sky tram up to the top (picture above) and I ended up running through this massive puddle! It came right up into my shoes! I was more worried that I was going to slip in it and land on my butt, so I think I will take the wet shoes!

We had left in what I thought was plenty of time but after taking the sky tram the 8 minutes to the top, we managed to get there exactly on time. Everything was said to start at 5:30pm. We walked into the doors at 5:30pm and everyone was still mingling about.

My friend who I have not chatted with for years, wanted to see pictures of my girls. I went and grabbed the zipper to my purse and it came FLYING off! I kinda stood there a bit baffled as I hadn't realize just how worn out it was getting and had to go in search of my husband to help me fix it. After he stopped laughing that my purse had basically exploded, he tried to help me fix it. After it was finally put back together, the zipper would not stay closed. I insisted on after the ceremony of the wedding to head down to the gift shop and get another purse. I have been trying to get a new purse for a few months now (I seem to be not just a penaholic, but a purseacholic too!) But the two purses I bought over the last two months had to be returned as the zipper was BROKEN!

I get to the gift shop and guess what... the purses they had were 130.00-160.00!!! Sure they were real leather, but I am NOT going to spend that money on a purse! (I am too cheap!)

So after asking the cashier what else they had, I mentioned I would even take a backpack at this point, she steered me towards these "purse/backpacks". The choice was limited, and had blue and grey, and the new Vancouver 2010 Olympic logo on it as well. I figured it was the cheaper of the bunch (still 30.00) but it was "use able" and would be able to give it to my daughter when I was done.

I walked back up to where everyone was waiting before going to the reception and my husband spots me and starts laughing at my new "purse" and calling it a lunch box! Yes okay, it certainly did look like it could pass as one, but after I let him know how much the other purses were going to cost me, I think he kinda liked my new temporary bag!

This weekend kinda flew by. Perhaps its was the fact we did not get home until 2am in the morning and that our girls were up at 8am... or the fact I had to run out yesterday and locate a purse asap for all my "stuff".

So I am cheating today and giving away a free fertility reiki session.. anyone who answers the question about color me surprised above, is entered to win. Winner will be announced Tuesday!

christina said...: I'm not for certain what color should be surprised, but maybe rainbow. An array of colors because a rainbow comes out of the sky surprisingly only certain times. Plus the emotions with surprise could be different colors! New slang word for surprised "I got rainbowed" hehehehe..; October 19, 2009 at 5:44 PM

After 2 years of trying to conceive, numerous fertility treatments, one chemical pregnancy and one miscarriage, I was starting to lose hope that I would ever conceive and carry a child of my own. I was very active on the Baby Center boards at the time, and came across information on Cheri22. I figured I had nothing to lose and was intrigued to hear what she had to say. After I signed up for a paid reading, my heart starting pounding because I realized that she might tell me that I wasn't going to have a child and that fear was with me until a few days later when her email popped up in my inbox. I hesitantly opened the email and to my surprise, there was a wonderful note in there about a BOY in January. I couldn't believe it, she actually saw a boy being conceived, announced or delievered in January! There was a long description of the boy's life including when he would get married and how many children he would have. After
searching for hope and strength for months, I had finally found something to renew my fight and help me to not give up. Unfortnately, January came and went without any news. But, in March we found out we were expecting twin daughters- we couldn't be happier! I remember thinking that maybe Cheri22 was just off a month and didn't give it much more thought. Unfortunately, that pregnancy was not meant to be. In July at 23 weeks pregnant, my water broke and my daughters were delivered too soon to live on this earth. I was devastated and lost and wasn't sure what the future held for me. A few months later, I came across the original email from Cheri22. I instantly emailed her and told her what happened and asked if she had any insights that could help me. She responded right away with her condolences and said that she still saw BOY in January. I can't tell you how relieved I was to hear that! Around the same time, I won
a contest that Cheri22 was running on her blog. I was able to ask 3 questions and of course all of mine were related to fertility and conceiving a child. I was amazed to hear that she also saw GIRL in March. Again this prediction came with an amazing description of my daughter and her life including her appearance, personality and future husband and children.

It is currently January and I am not sure what will happen, but I find hope in the possibilites. I never once lived my life by these predictions. I didn't plan treatments around these months or wait every day in January to find out if it was true. I simply used these as another outlet of light and hope in the darkness of infertility. Cheri22 is so compassionate about her abilities and goes so in depth with her predictions, I highly recommend that you contact her too!

I just wanted to thank you for the prediction you gave me. You were right on saying when I would conceive/find out (Which was September), and you also said this one would finally be my girl after 4 boys. I found out last Friday that this is indeed our first little girl!!!! Thank you so much! J

Cheri,

I had to let you know that I just got my second blood test back today, and I am pregnant! I can't believe it, but it happened just as you said it would. I went in the end of Dec and found out I still had placental tissue inside my uterus so I had a hysteroscopy in Jan and then must have gotten pregnant sometime after the surgery- all on my own. We still are not sure how far along I am, but we know we conceived in January. I am obviously scared out of my mind because my beta seems really high to me (381- 978) and more than doubled and with my history of miscarriage and infant loss, I am just a nervous wreck! But, I wanted to let you know because you played a huge part in this. I did the positive thinking exercise you mentioned on your blog the weekend I "think" I ovulated and it worked!

I can't thank you enough!

Krista

Cheri,

I just wanted to update you! We had our big scan this weekend and we are thrilled to announce that ITS A BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for all your insight, and I used the bath crystals that I had left over and the relaxation techniques from you!!!!!

Cheri,

Just wanted to let you know that 4 months ago you predicted April as my conceive/find out/ or birth month, and yesterday I got my BFP after almost 2 years of trying. I'll let you know if it turns out to be a girl too!

I would like to share my experience with Cheri's reading. This was my very first reading and I will admit I really did not know what to expect. I was actually against getting a reading because I thought it was sorta like cheating. I thought I might be peaking and spoiling the surprise. I was happy to see that I was wrong and that there are still plenty of surprises for me ahead. Talking with Cheri was like talking to a Life Counselor who had a complete file on my fast, present, and future. With that information she made my life seem more clear and easy to comprehend. I feel more at piece now and I am more relaxed. I tend to be inpatient and indecisive. By talking to Cheri, I feel like I am on the right path and that I should trust my intuitions and keep moving forward.

I would highly recommend her to any of my close friends or family that needed clarity in their life or fertility help.

As far as fertility, my husband and I have suffered three miscarriages with in the last two years and have started to loose hope. It was after my last miscarriage that I decided to contact Cheri the big question, "is there a baby in my future?". After she responded I was so happy. It gave me hope and a whole new determination to make sure my body was as healthy as it could be for a future pregnancy. It was like knowing you will have a guest coming over and you want to make sure the house is nice and tidy. I have been eating healthy and taking care of myself physically and also internally (my soul). These are all things I did before, but I am much more consistent and dedicated.

She also told me the sex, the month, and the personality of my next child. It was interesting to hear about the personality as it sounded like a perfect combination of my husband and I. So it really made sense and I could easily picture this person in our life.

In another reading, Cheri also reconnected me to my mother who died 10 years ago. It was great to know that she is still around and is watching over me and loves me very much. This month is actually her 10 year anniversary from her death. So I couldn't ask for a better time in my life to hear from her. Cheri confirmed that it was her by describing her and telling me how she died. So I was confident it was my mom.

Overall, Cheri is very easy to talk to and I felt very comfortable, considering this was my first time.

Best Wishes,

Trijane

I received two wonderful readings from you for my 4th and 5th children you were SPOT on your readings were amazing
I am now waiting to start ttc number 6 and have already received a reading from you which seems so accurate cant wait to find out if you will be right :)
feel free to post this on your website cheri

Hi Cheri!

This is really neat, you totally nailed our kids!! And our financial situation is exactly as you described! Even my husband, the skeptic, was impressed. It'll be fun to see if the TTC prediction "comes true". I'll let you know!

Thanks so much,

Kim :)

Cheri,

I included our previous conversation so you could see what the prediction was, I am sure it is hard to keep them all straight.

Well, you were right about the conceive in August, however, sadly I ended up miscarrying. As far as personality goes, I know people can read what they want into their prediction, however the little girl you described is a perfect blend of my husband and myself. My husband is an artist at heart and when he needs a break or something is on his mind you can find him doodling on any medium he can find, we are both quit and big on talking things out.

I appreciate everything

HI, Cheri,
I just wanted to tell you thank you so much for your response below. I was doing an injectible cycle with timed intercourse when I asked my question - your response gave me the peace of mind I needed to go through with the cycle. Well, as you predicted I found out I was pregnant with a faint positive before a beta test confirmed my pregnancy on September 10!!! I have had 2 additional beta tests since and my levels rose as they should - doubling each time. Yea! I have my first and second u/s on Tuesday and on Oct 2. Of course right now my biggest challenge is to get through these 2 u/s. As you might guess, I am stressed about another m/c since I already experienced one with my first pregnancy. But I tell myself that I am receiving better care and have been under my doctor's supervision since day 1, plus I am taking progesterone supplements 2x per day which I believe may have caused my first m/c. I am trying really hard to think positive thoughts only!! I even ventured out and bought a few baby things this weekend.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart - I am so grateful that I found you! If you don't mind, I will keep you posted along the way. Also, if you need a testimonial from me just let me know (although I doubt you do since you do phenomenal work)!!

Take care and many thanks,
Becky

Hi Cheri

I thought I would let you know, that we we did try again for our much wanted second child and I'm currently 18wks pregnant!!!

And once again you are correct for me and this baby is due 16th May 2010, I'll let you know in May if the sex is correct.

I know alot of people are sceptical about what you do but for me you have been correct both times and your kind words got me through dark times when I thought everything was lost and we would never get this far.

Merry Christmas!

Jude

Hi Cheri!!!!
Thank you so much for my reading!

About Samantha--she already does love animals! She is infatuated with every animal we see, whether it's a dog or cat (we have one cat already who is probably her best friend), or a bunny, turtle, bear, or anything. She was infatuated w/ the giraffe on her mobile before she even started making noises; that was the one thing that soothed her. All of her baby stuff is jungle animals! I'm amazed you sensed that about her! And she also already loves books! She would typically rather look at a book than do most things. It's incredible.

The reading about my second daughter made me tear up. My husband wants a boy so badly, I can imagine if we don't get one she'll be a tomboy. My husband LOVES sports, so i can fully imagine that whole scenerio taking place. And about it being in July, i've told a few people that if i don't get pregnant this cycle, that i'll be waiting until June or July to try again so that i can get a Spring baby.

My mother was diagnosed w/ Melanoma (skin cancer) March 01, 2004 and passed away June 24, 2007--they gave her 18 months, but she lived 3 years 3 months and 23 days. You nailed it entirely when you said we look a lot alike. Her best friends tell me that i'm a spitting image of her, although she said she could never see the resemblance. And yes, she dyed her hair. When she was a child she was a natural blond, but after having me her hair turned brunette. When i was in my teens she started dying it back to blond. It was waist length when she cut it because of the chemo.

I know it's outside the given reading, but i'm wondering if my mother is around us all? i very seldom have dreams about her, and miss her guidance and support immensely. I would really like to work with you on developing some of my gifts, because a lot of what your reading said, i've already felt in my heart--especially the thing about animals and Samantha, i've known that since before she was born.

Thank you so much Cheri for your time and for sharing your gift. I believe you are very talented!
S.

Hi Cheri,

I'm so excited to let you know you were RIGHT about the month I conceived (September), when I started to feeling pregnant 8-12th and when I tested "pregnant" on the 11th!!!!!

Most importantly you were right about having a GIRL!!!!! Thank you so much for this wonderful email and perfect prediction!

Sincerely,

Allison

Hi Cheri, it's Melinda here you have done a couple of readings for me and you are truly amazing. Your accuracy astounds me. Firstly you predicted my 3rd son to be a boy and in my next reading you predicted that If I were to have another child and it would be a girl and she would be due in Jan 2011. You were right, I am due in DEC 2010, but you were cloe enough. In one of my readings you also predicted my husband would be going into a partnership of some kind and although I thought you were completely wrong there, as my husband always said he would never go into a partnership. Turns out he has. So you truly are amazing and I tell all my friends about you.
