In Australia we call this a "Queenslander"Room. Ours was begun in March and dribbled on for a few months...and was nearly ready for use when Council decided the floor had to be dug up because of shoddy worl by a plumber we had who was a raging alcoholic and left work undone under wads of concrete...HMMM...we paid of course as you do.

This addition has made our house just lovely. It was a bit small in places and the furniture didn't have a real home as we need to have a lot of turning room for the wheelchair inside... I am a bit wierd...I just go out there and look at it and sigh... but am not in the habit of really using it yet..., maybe as the weather warms up and before it gets too hot!

Its just bewdiful.
 

The contents of this cupboard are my pride and joy...and some people think my shame...Humph! If there was ever a housefire or bush fire, the contents of this cupboard would be put in the van well before the humans, and just after the dog and cat. (maybe!) I was asked the other dau how many of these precious objects I had in this cupboard and I mumbled 50.

I was asked "You mean the little ones not the ones with take 300 don't you?"

"Nope... my 50 objects all contain 300."

My 50 big photo albums are my treasure and just knowing they are there makes me feel alls right with the owrld, although i do know its not...

I too can have my small dreams.

I have just started number 51 and there is no more room left in this cupboard and I am stumped...do I buy a bigger cupboard or have them in "stereo"? If I get a bigger one or another the same this will mean that Don can never exit or enter this part of the house in his wheelchair.

Then I ask myself " what are my priorities"?

Haven't figured it out yet. 

Have a closer look at these photos of the sky at our place... the first two taken last weekend...the last two taken a couple of onths ago. The long straight lines are not "contrails" as they would have us believe...any fool can see that. These are below the level of the jest which fly between Brisbane and Sydney. Contrails also do not fan out in multiples and cover the whole sky in a dirty looking thready "cloudlike" (Ha as if) fabric.

But these first two are more disturbing because of the horizontal series of "ridges" in the centre...these I believe are caused by Haarp or Scalar waves...

Every singll time these things happen we both come down with sore throats...without exception...and No Charlie...I know you attract nutters... but we have shown these to a friend who used to be a pilot on the 747 and he said they are not contrails, nothing like them.

These are called Chemtrails. They are now worldwide having started in the US and China!!!

In this there are 2 visible ones...One thin one closest to the horizon and one now dissapating above it and under the ordinary clouds...


Here they are again.

Have a look at www.carnicom.com and you willsee these same things worldwide.

Then try to ring your local airforce base and get someone to answer you.

This is now Australia wide...our little airforce doesn't have that many planes...so who's bloody planes are doing this shit? 

This one is a beauty...its of Lake Manapouri Sth island new Zealand... 

Some more photos of my sister and her little family down almost on the very tip of the South Island of New Zealand near where they live


 

These are some photos of my youngest sister's lovely kiddies.

I've been reading some excellent blogs today and some of them are so strong and needed because of whats going on in the world today. I am greatful for them and hope that they continue...better to know than not know I reckon. I was going to write about things that have been going on down under in the same vein, but right now haven't got the heart for it.

I was looking at a DVD of photos my sister sent to me of her family and where they live... and thought to post some of these...after all its this generation who nee need to be looking out for...they have at present no say at all in how things are being done, but it is they who will pay the price or reap the benefits. I hope its the latter but not optimistic.

This little girl (the older one) has my heart. She is such an individual and loves her little brother to death. He by the look in his eye is going to need that love I think.



Too good looking for his own good, poor little bugger.


A very tasty and chubby morsel.
















This is the middle sister who is the one who makes sure he doesn't get it easy. Oh well I am also a middle child and know how important a job she is doing. : ) 

I just cannot help myself. maybe I am bad to the bone...yes thats it...bad as! One of my borther inlaws was telling me a story about a converstaion he had had with my sister...(not his wife) another sister... the sister- that sister! The Social worker sister!...

Sometime back in a gathering he had said, without putting himself down...just in conversation "I'm just a bus driver." which he was. And happy about it...no self esteem problems there!

She looked at him with full, concerned blue eyes and said seriously and with "compassion",
"No Bruce, you are not just a busdriver. You are the bus driver"

We guffawed a bit...I mean what do they teach these flibbertigibberts?

When I told Don we both fell about laughing. You mean to say I am not just a "useless bloody cripple" I am "the useless bloody cripple"?

And I said "Right you are son!" as I scrapped of yet some more of his dinner off the walls... beating the wonder dog Thorn to it...he is getting a little chubby!

And I am not just a boring old hausfrau...I am "the boring old hausfrau" and proud of it.

The Crocodile Man - Steve Irwin was killed today by a large Stingray.

I am genuinely sad. He was so much himself and made me laugh because he reminded me of how I felt at about 7...all full of sillinesss, and common sense and questions and knocking everything over...

Most Australians will find this unbelievable because of his, (what can i call it) ...he was a great tall tale teller and character, and people liked him because he was bigger than all the shit the politically correct tried to dump on his head- even accusing him of endangering his wife (pictured) and his little girl Bindi... she is a great little kid and not glued to the TV and shopping centre... {bugger I think I am going to cry} :(

When I think of all the bloody bastards who get to live long lives I want to spit.

I will be back posting by the end of this week... the past weeks seem to have been too full... you start to go a bit crazy if you don't have down time... which is doing what you like doing... I just came accross this old 1974 photo of Don 23 and myself 20 with our new baby Melissa in my mum's lovely old backyard... its be "interesting" (I must be crazy! ) But there has been more good than bad... and thats better than 3/4 of the rest of the world has it so hey... but glad we don't know whats coming along.

Melissa turns 32 next monday!
