Had a good time watching the fireworks last night, We all went up into the hills and found a PERFECT spot overlooking the city. Nice big flat rock like a platform ..as the sun went down it was so lovley..a orange red sunset.. and the rock of course was nice & warm.
Fireworks were great and we had a great view along with great music Synchronised with teh fireworks.

did I mention the rock was warm?

yes very warm
Just ask the 6 dugite snakes that curled up under our chairs !! Have to be 5 ft or more ..maybe they enjoyed the fireworks too??? lol

DD & DS have been talking to Aussie as have I ..of course <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> he had to go for something called 'real' food lol <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

How is all?


Life may feel as if you are constantly getting kicked on a daily basis, living is about picking yourself up each day and going on and on and on regardless.

I dont think I will post to her, but if she reads here, I will say this. As a survivor of sexual abuse, just what she posts gives me the "willies".

I'm kind of thinking you should post to her. Just briefly. Let her know why her husband's behaviors make you squiffy. Do you recognize them as things that happened to you, either before, during, or after your molestation? She seems to be in a much more contemplative mood right now, not accepting exactly, but at least open to the idea that something more is wrong than she originally was willing to consider.

You might be able to help. At the very least, I don't think it would hurt.

Poor lady. It is hard enough contemplating the possibility of your H having an A with a grown woman.

Ask Neak what went wrong with your post. She's the Idiotville Head of I.T.<img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> I'm useless as a source of technological information. However, if it's too difficult to deal with again, that's OK, too.

As soon as I made the previous post, I saw that you'd just successfully posted to Manipulated. Thanks for the brave effort. Somewhere, some little kid is going to be fortunate that you did.

Thanks and I hope that she takes this inside herself and does what is best for the children. I had typed a little more things in the first post, but just couldnt do that again.
The thought makes me sick to my stomach, that some child out there is living what I did.
Wishing I had the xray vision to see all the sickos out there and a great big gun.. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
Thank you again for kinda letting me know what I should have done in the first place. I just hate stepping on toes and triggering others. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Time for a little fun...
I look at the bottom of the page and see 36 registered viewers and 55 anon. users....I feel like I am being watched...(turns head slowly to look behind her)
Anyone who is watching that belongs in this Lonely hearts club band, we dont bite (well usually dont) <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
Way to much caffeine for JE today.
Must think about no caffeine drinks... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Right now the ratio is only 11R/17U. Even if you avoid the caffeine, *spooky voice* somebody's always watching!

I am so not the right person to ask about lost posts. Mine go missing all the time, especially the long ones. Any time I have typed something very long or very important, I always highlight the text and copy it, so that if it gets lost in transit I can just paste it again. It has saved me several times.

Copy it to where? Do you mean just "save" it in your mouse? Whatever you're doing could've been handy to me on more than one occasion, too.

t&l

P.S. Don't know if we'll see you at the potluck. Sing well. Wish I could hear you. Wanna sing with Neaksis and me next week? It's our turn. I realize we don't usually start thinking about what to do until Friday night or Saturday morning, but a little premature contemplation once in awhile can't be TOO bad. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

One of these days, I'll have to drop by and hear you sing.

I think sometimes about all the pain in the world. I hope we can ease that here, even if only a little bit.

If I ever had time, I'd still like to make a CD with the girls. It's really not that expensive, surprisingly enough.

So much to do; if I only had time, only had time...

Hi all

been emailing & talking to Aussie <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

funny thing, every time its a serious matter .. apparently there's 'interference' <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

so everything is very light which is maybe good - especially as he wont discuss anything else. Or anyone, brother, sister, mum, dad, dd or ds & especially me. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

men <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

oh well thats life.

hey did you ever get to hear my DD sing? I did send the clips because I'm a doting mum

Well, I don't know why you would want me on the CD....I am not sure of the quality of my voice although I know I am relieved that God merely requires that I sing and make a joyful noise.

I suppose Aussie is just being male....You know their bodies get all full of preposterone and they get preposterous ideas then.

I've never heard it called "preposterone" before, but I love it!! That's better than my "testy-tosterone" any day of the week. I'll have to save it up for the next time one of the males in the family annoys me! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I can't WAIT. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Preposterone is a hormone men have. Most doctor's are men and they don't know about this yet. But ask any woman and she can tell you. It is a toxic chemical which gives men preposterous ideas - especially ideas of grandiosity and perfection and terminal correctness. Anyway, it builds up in their bodies to this toxic level. When they reach the toxic level, they go into mental pause.

The bottom of page 3????

It is my studied opinion that either males build their preposterone to toxic levels shortly after birth, or that perhaps in some cases the mental pause occurs first.

Neaksis says my dream wasn't very Christian. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> But it was pretty funny. Serves her right for pretending to become a Christian just to be able to insinuate herself closer to us! Or maybe I just need to stop eating banana bread at bedtime.

Definitely I need to tie the Dervish to his bed. I still can't believe him!!!! *whiny voice* "But Mommy, whyyyyyyyyy tan't I watch Majik Skoolbus? Why tan't I? Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Because it's the blasted middle of the night, that's why!!!!!!!!!!!

Even this morning, he was still whining about it.
