Hi My Angel,
if you go to http://www.wheresthelights.com/ and type in your town and state it will show you where all the Christmas lights are. that is what i use. please try, your girls will love it.
Yes dubbo is the next town over from me, yes, the Zoo, it is so nice their, i so wish i could tell you hwhere i live, it would make explaining my surroundings so much easier.
Oh good girl Karen, you have done it already wow, boy your room is going to be crowded, i hope the work does not take too long.
I will not be leaving for my sunday outing until 6 or 7 tonight, so i am here all day if you want to chat.
Karen please look up the lights link above, i am sure the girls would love to look at the lights, some people go to so much trouble and they look fantastic.
Oh yeah, mum told me to tell you to be careful when buying the Patella straps, some of the other ones do not have a rubber rod running through the middle of them,, here is a photo of what i am talking about
So please make sure yours has this rod, mum says it is the only one that works for her.
Thinking of you always. i have lit a sandlewood insense for you my angel.
big hugs
Jacques

Oh you are so smart my angel, so now you know, yes it is a small town, ver old looking, very rural.
oh karen it sounds like a dream where you live, i love the rain, we hardly get any, i miss it so much, where i used to live it rained almost every day, it is very dry and arid where i am now.
Your home sounds like it is so beautiful, you are so lucky Karen, i do hope you will be happy their, i know you have doubts, but give yourself time to settle in. you will make some beautiful memories their for you and your daughters, i just know it.
the site may not have many, some towns list them, some don't but if you drive around i am sure you will see some, please try.
no it is not a plastic rod, it is rubber, probably about 1cm thick, mum says the rod is what gives her patella the support, she says it does not hurt, and you don't even realise you are wearing it after a few min, she says it has helped her immencly, i wish i could buy one for you, the one mum has is fantasic.
i so wish we could have better contact.

i think maybe soon we might have to talk to the moderators about passing on our details to each other, we know each other so well, and have known each other for years now.
Yes i thought it would be painful too, but mum says it feels weird for a few minutes then you don't even know it is their.
Mum has tried so many different knee guards, all of them have been useless, she cried so much from all the pain, now she is out and abour doing so much because of them.
this little strap will sit just below the knee cap, so it will not interfear with the knee cap, but i think it stops the knee from popping out anyway, as it holds the patella in place.
Karen, would it be possible to tlak you through how to buy one on ebay?
Oh Karen, i am so jelous, i love water, i would love to sit on the bank in a quiet area with only you and dangle me feet into the nice cool water, it would be so nice, you are so lucky Karen, i can't hear any water running, even though the river is just 200 meters from my house, it is nice having the birds fly over though. i have always liked green lush area's, i don't like it where i llive, too dry and arid for me.

you should also be able to buy them from sports stores too,
Yes i am grateful too, i can't believe you found me again, you mean so much to me now, i could not imagine life without you.
i don't like it here, i never have, i am the same as you 25 and lush, you are so lucky, it is 36 here today, i have had the AC going for an hour now. so horrible.
i have never seen snow, you are so lucky to experiance all you do. your area is just so beautiful, i so wish i could live somewhere like that, but it is not to be, i am stuck in this horrible place, the house mum ownes is not worth much, we have thought about moving but can not afford anywhere else.
Karen, i can't explain how much you mean to me, i know it sounds creepy, but i would not be alive if it was not for you, your kindness and your caringness towards me. i am so lucky you decided to be my friend, you mean everything to me.
