Just google earthed Williamsburg. Wow Missy you are just a short walk away from everything!

Techie, wouldn't it be so nice to have so much money that you don't know where 90K a month is going ....

When do I make up the bed for you and your girl? Why not come between Dec and March and we can all do the Melbourne night markets together.

Damn, no Rodin knock offs available. They are soooo heavily copyrighted. Wonder if I took a zillion photos of the sculptures in Kanbra then found someone with a 3d printer.........

Of course, I will try and capture some of this with the camera as promised @ previous aborted chant. Just doing my part to provide quality Undie entertainment!

Techie's coming to Wollongong for a bbq chicken?

Here's a song for ya Mr. G.

Morning Rigsy, Bridgy, Mussy, HP, Techstar, and i'm tipping a special pop in from Bald bloke shortly, and viewers near and not so far,

Noicey, I hope you don't mind me quoting an excerpt, I say extract here, from your fantastic 'why I relapsed after 6 yrs' post.

I said to someone who does know about my relapse the other day that I’m glad that my life before my first quit was so bad! I’m glad because I know I never ever want to go back there. I’m also really glad that my relapse happened. It was relatively short lived and it left me with no doubt about whether I can manage AL any better than I did the first time around. Drinking for me isn’t an option and my relapse was caused by lack of judgment/knowledge/experience. I was arrogant and cocky!! Kind of like if I knew then what I know now. The fantasy of alcohol caught me off guard. The fact that I felt so different, so strong, so much more wise about AL, so much more capable was also part of it. I felt I could control it and not the other way around. What I know now for sure is that alcohol takes away all of my inner strength, my ability to be capable, the solidness and comfort of being totally, truly who I am. Alcohol and I just don’t get on. I know it now – both intellectually and emotionally. I know NOW what I NEEDED to know THEN. Never again will I wonder or fantasize about AL – EVER. And, I’m glad about that. And, I’m proud to say I don’t ever drink !!!

That’s my story of why/how I relapsed and the tale about how I dragged my saggy arse back to where I belong. On Planet Sober, with a brand new enlightened respect for the AL beast.

I owe a lot to those who care for us all here! I try to give a little in return, although I never feel it is enough......

Nicey

I've been likened to Springsteen before Rags. I suppose it's better than Gabriel Gate...

Blue sky's here, and today i'm working with a couple of cool sheila's laying the first mud bricks and foundations of a website project I've waffled on about here before.

Make some cheese Rags.

Saucy, from memory, go into a medicare office with yer I.D. etc and they should give you some sort of paper receipt then and there that you can use until they post you out another card. Be sure to bring the book 'WTF do I do when I realise Bertha the chook is really Bert the rooster' as there is often a queue.

Off to get a freakin bagel. L8tr, Yo!

Hey hey hey....it's Friday!!!

Just been for a walk through Parramatta park to ease myself into another day at the command desk. It has been a pretty trying week but I made it.

Rags - I've been to Salamanca markets and lost my right hand Oroton glove my girls had given me for my birthday. I went around and around and around until I found her in a box of empty 'olden day' bottles. Every time I went past the apple man he gave me an apple.... I'd eaten half a barrel before I found my glove. The whole while FH and I talked on the phone......that was when we were gettin' to know each other. He often tells the story of how I can't be trusted to look after gloves. I loved those markets!! I was 'attending a conference' at the time.

Mr G - special Friday style salute to you.

Haps - thanks for the !!!! Made my day.


Bridge - it must be lethargy week.....

I hope you all have a beautiful day. As Mr G would say - it's a ripper out there.

Love you all, and soooo glad to see that Techie has sorted out his matters of the heart.

Be kind, be happy and be doin' it!!

hey undies
I am not having the best week, but trying to stay positive nonetheless....Mr. G, you are a hunk, I meant to say so before the site screwed up...there is a stray cat outside yowling. She has no tail, maybe that is why. Threw a wad of catnip from the garden at her yesterday, and she finally got the hang of it....storm moving in, will get to see how my hut does, even though it is not finished...humidity from hell!!

Thanks Bird. I'm sure to send a CD your way later in the year if you'd like one. I play a little drums on it too, but am getting a couple of real drummers in to nail some tricky parts.

What about trying some Mindfulness in the midst of your crap week? e.g. Do some paradiddles or similar, and focusing on nothing else for awhile will at least give your mind and worries a rest for a bit. Or stand up comedy on you tube or elsewhere. Lot's of George Carlin free on you tube if you're a fan? He was a funny bugger I reckon. Take it easy and ride out that storm wherever it is, for it too shall pass.

Good ideas Mr G. I have been spending a good amount of paradiddle time, it is helpful. I will check out some Geo Carlin...laughing is so healing...yes, I would love your upcoming CD...

You're on. And you're not a bad looker yerself Mam if I may say. The ability to lay down a good groove as you do, is a special one and not to be underestimated.

Right, off into the wild blue yonder.

Happs, I am in the process of applying for a Medicare card and they are really efficient! Much more so than the Australian Tax Office In fact the amount of documentation that is needed to get a tax file number is so ridiculous that it is best done to get a Medicare card before you get a tax number (because a medicare card is accepted as documentation for getting a TFN while a NZ photo ID drivers license is not). It seems really screwy to me ... I am an out and out socialist but it appears to be extremely difficult to become a tax-paying resident in Australia. Whinge over

Yum - bagels!! I've already told Mr B that bagels are high on my priority list. The best ones Ive eaten so far in my life were from a jewish bakery in Hampstead Heath in London - used to get them every Sunday after my morning run!

There is a long story abut why we are staying in Williamsburg, related to a very old book called "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" which I read when I was 10 and totally identified with the main character

Hey Mr G - just noticed the excerpt from my relapse post. Fusk, dragging myself back on to Planet Sober that time round was hard! Harder than eating a boiled lolly with no teef I tell ya. Timely reminder.....it's been on my mind a bit with all this stress. I reckon the 500 laps in a freezing cold pool would help heaps!!! You're a bloody doll you are!!!!!

Just had a bowl of porridge....how noice. Haven't had a bagel in 400 years.

Waves to you Missy.

How good is it to have our Rags back!

Head nod to Tawny......

When I get stressed outta me mind, I shut myself away and keep totally to myself. It doesn't help one bit.

This place gives me wings.........
