first day of the rest of my life...............

hello lovely ones...you know I saw Julia/Julie whatever it's called. the younger one of the two women decided to create a blog and she didn't know whether anyone would read it and I'm sure that it's the same in my case. Why would anyone read this? There is no reason at all.
Do you not think it a little arrogant to assume that the whole world would want to read about ME. So that's all I will say.

shot into space

after saturdays' fires, the whole shire, the whole of Victoria, in fact has been shot into space with the devastation of it all. We've lost people and whole communities are homeless.


The cry of the broken hearted is heard ringing out over the ashen landscape... listen, you can clearly hear them. We cry with them.


My mother escaped within an inch of her life. She and her little dog Harry stayed here for one week. today. one week later, she headed off to Alexandra where she's been offered a caravan for a while.

Finding her community again.

Arrived home from the beach a week ago. Just when the heat started.

All the way there, and on the way back home I had a deep sense of gratitude that a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. All that fear I'd carried 'round for years has dissipated. you know, the one where we make the same mistakes our parents made and our children go thru the hell we went thru'. Well it was truely a divine act of grace and healing. Thank You

going to the beach...

We're off to Nelson tomorrow. It's on the mouth of the Glenelg river.
We're staying in "Aunty Kirstys". She is my dads' half sister and an absolutle JOY!! Pristine bushland and very few tourists so it is a beautiful
peaceful place to enjoy. How are YOUR holidays? Let me know.

This is my first Post!! wacko*!
..... to encourage those who feel knocked about by chronic illness and pain. This may or may not interest you, but if it does then read on.For many years I've been wrestling fms and CFS and all that those two intermingled illnesses bring to the table of life. In finding myself rendered (almost)"useless", I am learning to accept myself (and others) just as I am. Thank You for this lesson. You are not measured by the stuff you do. Finding still waters running deep..mm

how does it feel? like green? or darker green?


what does that mean?
