MAE human beings! 1 October already. Eeks.
Hopefully will be posting more when I return to base. We drive back tomorrow. Its been a wonderful break. Yesterday did a tough-ish 4 hour hike to a glacier. Its so great to get away from paperwork and housework and stuff. The girls have been great. Partner too! When we returned last night to the cottage there was a bottle of pinot noir on the table ? as compensation for the muck-up the rental agency made. I would have rather had the money but they did apologise and pay for the accommodation in the other place on our first night. Wine was of no interest to me or partner and it will probably end up as a gift.
Det ? that was a very sad Halloween memory. But here?s a lighter side ? its my partner?s birthday ? and this year he will be 50. I can?t think of any ideas for a present/surprise. Thank goodness the last thing he wants is a party. This month is also 20 years of me and him being a couple. Hmmm????? Do I deserve a medal ? like they give to old veterans?
Sam ? I am with you on treating the animals with care and also yourself with care on the farm. The contraption thing you posted looks very good. But I can see that there?s lots of frustration on the farm too. As I have said before ? my sister is a farmer.
Hi there Lav ? thanks for starting the thread. Siblings ? oh yes ? this seems to be a universal minefield all over the world. I have seen so many people in tears, seen so much anger ? between siblings ? and I am not talking about my own. My daughter is an only child and for some strange reason she does not seem to mind having no siblings. But I do know siblings who really get along with each other and even take pleasant holidays together.
Pauly ? big hugs for staying sober during the weekend when you put granma?s ashes to rest.
You can do this and you are doing this.
YahYah ? hope your week goes well. I know all about paperwork. Guess what is waiting for me after this holiday?:H
Gidday also to you SF. Also to all others (who have I missed? Where is Cinders? She was posting so regularly before). Hi there Brydie and others who pop in to our thread from time to time.
Hellz bells ? I missed offering some tea or coffee to Mick! How are you mate? What are you up to this week? It must be getting cooler in the North Pole. Is that possible? No wonder you people terrorised and settled elsewhere (hang on - that includes my ancestors as well)
Here is to a sober and wonderful October - whether in the North Pole, South Pole or in the deserts in between like where Pauly and Det live.
