Share some good news!!!

Share some good news!!!

Hi everyone,

I thought it would be a good start to the year to write any good news here 🙂

So I am going to start with some very exciting news:

My son (24 yr old) has been accepted into the police force. He passed his panel interview last Friday. They told him it would take 3 weeks but he received an email today. He now has to wait for induction at the Academy. I guess they will phone him soon.

I AM THE PROUDEST MUM EVER!!! is an understatement. I am so proud of him, he has wanted this for years and failed once but kept trying. I am so happy for him, when he rang me and told me I was almost crying and then I phoned my sister and a few close friends. It's like I got into the Academy. But I am feeling that this year is a really good start; next we sell our home and then move into a place that we decide and pick for us, with no parents involvment. I AM SOOOOO HAPPY!!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

@utopia@Zoe7 you are so funny 🙂 🙂

Do you @utopia I forgot to tell you that last week at our open house a white galah on our huge tree decided to shite everywhere on the agent's shirt. LOL

He got someone to take a photo and his shirt was literally covered, huge. I was killing myself laughing when he showed me the photo.

I thought that was good luck, so on auction day he washed and wore 'that same shirt' - it didn't bring any luck - well not yet anyway 🙂 how funny is that?

Re: Share some good news!!!

Yeah sorry about that @BlueBay. I thought it would bring luck - that's why I got his shirt. But I slept in on auction day & missed flying over him and doing it again. Lol

@utopia and @BlueBay

I love the story about the cocky - and yes - it is good luck if a bird sh^ts on you because imagine if cows could fly

Story time!! - one Christmas way back when the kids were all little we were having out dinner outside and a bird dropped its message into my brother's plate and he hit the sky yelling at us because we all laughed telling him it was good luck

He must have felt picked on - we often laughed at him which always made it worse - still

There's this little song we would chant at him

As I was staring at the sky

A bird dropped his message in my eye

It was good luck - I had to cry

How glad I am that cows don't fly

You will sell your house Blue - I know - we cannot always see good luck when it happens but the bird - and a cocky at that - messy - but

What a great little story

Go for it @BlueBay

Enjoy every minute and you can get your knitting needles clicking away - and you will know if it's a boy or girl soon enough to do pick or blue - oh what terrific fun

I am going to enjoy this baby myself

@Decadian. Lol. Yes so glad cows can't fly.
Speaking of cow pats. My local football - netball club have a fundraiser next weekend. Our footy oval is going to be painted out with 200 squares. I've bought 2 squares. We will bring in a cow & all watch and wait for him to drop a cow pat. All the while hoping he drops it on our square. Winner gets $1,000.
Life in the country.

Love that @utopia

Then let the cow wander all over the field and fertilized it while the going is good and the cow is providing the sh^t
