I’m heading out, dropping off a freshly brewed coffee @Gazza75 ☕️☕️☕️☕️
Not sure what to drop off for you @outlander other than a cold pack for your pain etc. So sorry you are suffering this and more. 💜💜💜💜💕💕💕

Hey @outlander ,
I've had the farm more than 10 years now. I originally got it as a place to move my bee's that I had here on the coast. I ended up with 12 hives in the period of about a year. I used to catch swarms and give them new homes. Unfortuantely I lost every one of them when i moved them out west.
I had cattle untill earlier this year where I had to get rid of them all because of the drought and no food. It was costing more than it was worth to keep them. It was a hard decision as I had them 7 or 8 years, i started out with 5 girls and 3 steers , I ended up with 55 at one stage. I had them very well trained in the end. Some of my neighbours still have a few that I sold to them so I do get to see and visit them occsionally. One of them I hand raised from a calf and he thinks he's more of a dog than a cow. He grew up sleeping with 2 dogs under my house. I had Dexters and they are only minature cattle.. only come up to your waist or so in height.. some of the boys are wider than they are tall.
I can relate to being an outcast, I'm defintely the black sheep of our family, I always have been, but, more so since my brothers accident and the onset of my 'condition'.
I hope things get easier for you to eat and drink over the next few days. Hang in there 🙂 ![]()
G'day @MDT

I miss having bee's. I was helping to take care of my neigbours she manged to get some last year, but, sadly I didn't do a good job and they moved out. I've had too much going on the last 12-18 months to much of anything.
I will probably have to sell my farm in the next year or two. It makes me sad to think about it as I really wanted to retire there. It's in the middle of nowhere, but, the only place I could afford where I could get a nice chunk of land for myself. Its 180 acres, can't get around town without sacrificing all your limbs / life lol 🙂
The whole country could do with a nice drink, thats for sure 🙂
Being an outcast all the time is very tough going.
I feel like it's just going to get worse and wore for Me, especially when my parents aren't here. I literally will have no one else then. It's really just Mum and I now, my dad is very isolated and doesn't get out much.
Good timing with the train, hope you have a safe run home. How did it go? Doesn't seem like you got sent off for more tests or examinations which is good 🙂
