My Place

Sounds great @Oaktree 🙂 I've been on a similar trip with NDIS too and it's great to get away and see some sights! Thank you for sharing about your trip! RiverSeal

Hi @tonys

How are you doing? How is the recuperation going? I am glad that you were able to be there for our friend Emelia8 the other night. I think it meant a lot to her that you kept her company. Thinking of you and hoping that you are well.

Hi @Oaktree Just letting everyone Know my flash new oled screen on my computor is flashing all wierd colours, lines and squares. I think it on its last legs, so could be without a laptop till its repaired.

Can hardly see what I'm typing and then sometimes it just goes black. Sorry about your plant show

@Oaktree , Bit of cool rain might be a good thing though.

Hope every one is going ok . well I better keep this short before it shuts down again.

@EternalFlower @Former-Member @Emelia8 . hope you feel a little better mate. @ENKELI @Meowmy

@Historylover @Tilz @Appleblossom @Dimity @Jynx and everyone.

Sorry to use your thread for a billboard Oaktree. but this laptop is about to fold any minut I'm afraid.

@tonys

Sorry about your computer, hope you get it fixed or replaced under warranty.

So the weather turned out not so bad here the last 2 days, no rain. So instead of going to the garden festival I took hubby for a drive out to Guildford Garden Centre. It’s quite a long way from here so it was an adventure. I bought some white star seed potatoes which are a good all round potato and 2 kinds of seed garlic. Roja and Italian purple. I will plant the garlic around my Brussel sprouts. I also stopped in at Bunnings on the way home and bought 4 bags of cow manure and 4 bags of compost to dig into my raised beds

Hey @tonys good luck making the transition from a crook computer to a better one. I am waiting for a magic new one to appear on my doorstep.

@Oaktree @@great to hear you are still on the job….

just singing a cooee….

Thanks @Appleblossom .. Yes that computor was my favourite toy. But if you are doing a cooeee

then its sounds like the repair patch is holding on your inner tube, Apple,

Good work mate, Nice to see you shimmering a smile again.. tonys..

Hi @Oaktree . I had a rush of blood to the head day in the garden too and paroled a few plants from

their terracotta bondage. Soils warm and the rain is consistent. Definatley planting time.

Good you got out and filled your day and had a nice day mate. I better go and do something useful.

Nite mate.. tns

@Appleblossom

Thanks for the cooee! Sending love your way.

Hi @tonys

It will be another month before the weather turns here. Looking forward to some rain as long as it’s raining when I don’t have outdoor plans. Dug the manure and compost into one raised bed today. 3 to go tomorrow.

@tonys

Sorry that you felt like you upset someone the other day. I can understand your confusion. I got told I was being negative in my posts the other day but I don’t remember being especially negative. I just complained about the weather because it didn’t match my plans. When it was pointed out to me, I was terribly confused and didn’t post anymore that day. I am not autistic so I can see how the feelings of confusion would be worse for you. I just wanted to let you know that I understand and that you shouldn’t let it worry you too much. Just move on as best as you can.

Love and hugs to you Bro

I hear you on that @Oaktree .. And see your thinking. My shrink always said to me that if you give someone ice creams when they complain, you run the risk of training them to complain.

Mind you, he was known as a hard man. But I have seen it happen with , 'some' the nations children

who then grow up to still be adult children, looking for a mother to marry. These "big' babies don't get the outcomes they just assumed they are entitled to, we end up with record domestic violence.

Of course I'm generalizing, but I now have 4 woman that come and go from here that all were

victims of the. the 'Ice cream' generation. How many times do you see the mothers of criminals

say . . . My boy wouldn't do anything wrong . . . I guess thats why I would rather point out a positive

side to a negative, than just toss one more get well card on the pile. But I do think a mix of both is important.

I'm not worried at all @Oaktree . I have in the past had help regarding posting pics and protecting my privacy. Also updates on actions taken against 2 members that were abusive to me. sent in private emails. I new I

would not get feedback because I was well intentioned in all my correspondence.

Is it perfect. NO, but its about the overall flavour and intent, and I'm never ever abusive. hey my friend. Your a good example.

Your day may have got rained out, but you took what you could not change, and made it into something better. . @Glisten @Former-Member and others on this thread, and you, set the bar high for keeping a positive mood and saving us all from endless drear n fog. It keeps me coming back.

Think thats why I like the poetry thread. We can channel things into something there, call it a picture n walk away. And thanks by the way to Sane for showing tolerance in that thread.

Thankyou for you kind support sis. Hug to you and hubby, Have you had a look at a motor home ?

I'm making dinner for everyone so I better start scrubbing spuds.. Kind thoughts tns.
