Introduction

Hi guys I am new here but just skipped over introducing myself and threw myself straight into the forums so let's rewind a minute.

I was diagnosed with Bipolar Affective Disorder in 1990. It changed my life and not in a good way. My mother said "now you will never do anything with your life" and my Aunt said "we should put her in an institution". It was right then that I decided that I would live the best life I possibly could with this illness. I since met and married my husband and we had 3 gorgeous children who have all now reached adulthood. I have been in and out of hospital a lot since around 2008 and somewhere along the way had BPD added to my diagnosis. I enjoy art and crafts, playing computer games and watching tv. I was working with a psychologist and we were going to work on childhood trauma as I grew up in an abusive household but I kept getting sick so we are currently on a break. Not sure if I want to go back to therapy at this point in time. Not sure what else to add so I will just leave it here. Feel free to ask questions x

@Sophia1 @Oaktree @LeChuck Hello everyone. Now first rule of "Grey Rock"

IS Dont ever take Tonys 2gns seriously. He is usually chuckling while typing . Grey rock

and lucky 8, My spectacles are fashioned from old whisky bottles. . . It all kinda looks the same.

50 years of plundering n twice as many bleached bones on canyon trails puts thick bark on a man.

Just give me a deck thats all aces , a corrupt mayor, and job I can abuse. . .

A town like that could really grow. . . . proper. . . evolve..

when it gets too top heavy. . . maybe one day they'll call it. . . . . Canberra...!

just kidding. Hope you are all well, with a twinkle of humour in your eyes

Re: Introduction

@LeChuck well mate , tonys likes words n poetry . messages bold.. . and messages hidden

in the weave of the curtains we choose, . . . waiting 30 years for them to reveal the tapestry

of our minds, . . . . and that, n those that, . . wove it. ,

This could be good news .... could be bad news... I drink at the music thread too....

Think you should post your find there too..

Tonys thoughts are with you what ever trail you ride.

@Sophia1 @Oaktree Mount up. . . . could be a long ride.. T 2gns

Re: Introduction

Hey @Sophia1 know what you mean by missing posts... no wonder all the cows are getting

out.

Mate, we know theirs no boundaries in the dessert. You gotta do what you gotta do

Just know that I painted 4 on the grey rock town sign. so ya gotta come back and warm a stool

at the L 8 bar when you feel lucky.

That goes for all of us @Oaktree @LeChuck and other outlaw passers by.

Grey Rock is a code us trailblazers ride with where ever we go.

Re: Introduction

Does this mean everyone is keen to ride outta town for a while?

I'll be lurking in my sheriff's office for a while, outback trails and new things are too much for me right now, gonna walk on the safe side of the road. Wishing you all fabulous adventures though! Come back with new stories and new ideas for me!

@Oaktree@Sophia1 @tonys I'll hit you up when you come through town to make some mischief

Xx LeChuck

PS tonys, nah every time I post there everyone says it's not their thing, gets disheartening after a while. Just different tastes to the music thread gang 🙂

Re: Introduction

Re: Introduction

Hello fellow Grey Rock residents(are we allowed to say fellow now?) Can't keep up...sigh

@tonys @Oaktree @LeChuck

oh that's right we have our own rules in this here Grey Rock.

we can brighten it up with some street art.

Lucky 8 saloon....still that?

Don't mind me with my confused mind...

You should try being my husband for a day laugh?

He is losing his memory I think intentionally to cope....

I cannot keep up with all of the beautiful, heartwarming messages that have been left for me.

I love this here community that we have.

I am a sensitive lioness with a huge roar that might be a great big yawn...

My sensitivity comes with great depth and this is where confusion comes in my messages.

So I say to my merry 3 companions....do not take me seriously either...I speak my own language and struggle with people understanding me in real life.

I speak with forked tongue (Indian famous line?)

I have been hanging around with the Big Chief remember who hangs around with Little Foot

Did I mention that we have a pet?

Shall I share that now or hold back on that for a while?

@LeChuckI don't think that I could cope travelling out of town just yet either. ... I have only just arrived back not exactly in one piece.

I will be here ..

@Oaktreelove the idea of the cattle herd. Should we start with a few and breed?

We need to save our gold coins as they seem to get spent very quickly

@tonysHave you won any of your card games? Now I am wondering if you might be the saloon story teller in between gun fights.

@LeChuck

Did anyone let you know that part of your role as Sherriff is mediating...Ha ha...yes I know what you are thinking.

That can of course include bribery.

We are not very good at listening here.....hint...reading every post...replying to every post..

Absolutely impossible.

The posts fly through this town faster than lightning.

@LeChuck

re music

will reply in another post.

Everyone has fallen asleep reading this.

I could be the town reporter... I do write books...I could try my hand at local news...

toodle loo

Lioness

Yeah the lioness is back with her Big Chief and Little Foot (yes of course he can be young Meggle)

We can be whoever we want here because we are the town folk in Grey Rock.

Re: Introduction

I don't think this woozy sheriff stands any chance of keeping up with posts, I don't think any of us can, but like we said at the start, the thing about Grey rock is we can all be confused together 🙂

@Sophia1 I would love to hear some stories! But I think your tually have to know what's going to report on it so none of us stand a chance haha!

@tonys @Oaktree xx LeChuck

@Sophia1 @LeChuck @tonys

Street art sounds fabulous! Yes let’s brighten the town up. Grey Rock is a bit dreary.

Town reporter - yes big tick! No need to know actual goings on just make something up. Looking forward to reading town news!
