Ooh yes good question, maybe also next year! I should be on top of this already, I had hoped to have a settled base before my baby is born but I still have plenty of time I guess.

Well don't worry too much. Carl's Jr is not open yet even though they only have one day to fulfil their signage promise of opening in December. :shifty:[DOUBLEPOST=1451480452][/DOUBLEPOST]

I'll think up a zooper dooper gang name and mass print that on them, maybe. That might be terrible though.

Ahh yes, disappointing. You know, I think it's meant to be, as I was going to Bateau Bay in December and that seemed like fate, but then my plans changed and apparently there's did too. I guess they still have tomorrow to deliver.

And hahaha yes, of course. The Clique is perfect!

I blame the sun. It just keeps coming up and going down again, and everytime it does, a new day comes with it. It is squarely the sun's fault time refuses to stand still.

The grief that comes with loss is at times unbearable. I am so desperately sorry you lost your child. To be honest, I can't even get my head around it.

I remember visiting a client back when I cleaned houses for the aged. She was easily in her 80's. Her 4 year old daughter was killed after being hit by a car on a family picnic. I asked her if it gets easier to bear over time. She said "once you lose your child your heart breaks and it never heals, and nor would I want it to, because I get to feel her every day..."

Do you dream of your son? I still see and hear my Dad in my dreams. Though sadly I don't dream of him much anymore. In my dreams we never have much time, and we always have to rush what we are doing. I love seeing him. Maybe tonight I will.

Happy New Year Shaydee. I am thinking of you. :)

:( I'm so sorry you went through that.

Grief is such a profound experience and the loss is so significant, I've been surprised each time to find it's more like a physical pain for how consuming it is, but losing a child must be the worst thing in this world. Well not that there is a comparison with suffering of course, but yes, so sorry you had to experience that. :inlove:

Hi Everyone, Thankyou all for your kind words, and thoughts, @Trala ,@Insomniac ,@Isee ,@Meglos ,@Affable ,@shaydee ,@Inigo Montoya ,@qtkt ,@jessy_girl ,@bleachy_dude ,@mutleyp ,@Tuttle ,@hooleydooley ,@crimmy ,@Mooseface ,@Khun Khun ,@el'coopo & @Mr Stickyfingers . Hope I havent forgotten anyone. @shaydee, I cannot imagine how hard that was for you losing your child, and I felt the same as you, next day I thought how can people just go on as if everything is fine, when my world has stopped. @hooleydooley , I believe some of us have that gift, and it sounds like you have. I was asleep when I got the call in the morning. I felt it too before I was told. I dreamt about my dad the sunday night. I have never felt this grief before. This is the first death of someone truly close to me, (other than a miscarriage) someone that I loved deeply, he was such a kind hearted man, who was so selfless. Its going to be hard. I know I am not the only one to go through a loss, but right now, I am just so incredibly sad.I thought he would have a few months more. And I am so angry also with how the last month he was treated by some drs. And I am so sad that he suffered in the last few weeks. I was trying so hard to get him in to see a Palliative care specialist, but I kept getting vetoed by his specialists. I feel like I have let him down. Im sorry, blubbering my personal thoughts,

Thank you all. I am 15 years down the track here & yes it still hurts but I am able to cope with it a lot better now. The memories are no longer filled with trauma. My memories are of the good times. The only thing that sometimes gets me, is what could have been. But hey.. it is what it is and I was lucky to have 8 years with him :)

@shadow2 I hear you when you say you feel like you let your Dad down. Give it a while. It's so normal to feel like that but I absolutely promise you this. Once the raw pain has left and you can think about him without crying, a lifetime of memories will start flooding back. They will over ride the painful memories you have of him right now. The pain of seeing him suffer. The Drs. Everything that just doesn't seem fair. One day, the painful memories of seeing him suffer will be replaced with all the good stuff. I promise you this will happen. Be patient & be kind to yourself. Talk about him with your family... just because he's gone, he's still your Dad and even though it can be too much sometimes.... talking, crying & just being there for each other will bring you all closer & help you on this painful journey. My heart is with you xxxx

I just had to pull the plug on one of those games that have you feeding things and harvesting crops etc ... How do they become so addictive so fast? ... Figured I was in danger of wasting my hols if I kept it ... Have some cane furniture I need to revamp ... We don't use it .. More for giving a bit of a rustic feel to the front verandah so if I stuff up on repainting it the world isn't going to end ... Old sheets (tick). Spray paint (tick). dust mask the Bunnings guy guilted me into (tick) .... Will to get up out of bed after going to sleep around 2am because of stupid time waster game (not quite there yet)
@Trala if yr dog does learn to put kettle on and bring you coffee can you send him over STAT ... Oh and if he could manage a couple of pieces of raisin toast that would be great :) thanks

My secret shame. I downloaded Kim Kardashians game about a year ago. I don't know why..but I did. I actually found myself thinking, oh this is ok. Dressing up, being glam. Like the total opposite of pj sloth girl here. I was like ooo faaaaabulous!!! Then I got in too deep. Too many appearances. Too much pressure to wear the right clothes or be seen with the right people at the best clubs etc. The only way I could complete all my appearances and do it not wearing the same outfit twice, was to spend actual money on buying my way through the game.. just so I could have more social status & be more famous.

I threw it all away. All of it. Fame, fortune, designer handbags. Everything.


I can see how in todays society that this game could be quite traumatic for young people who kinda idolise that kind of life. Plus the amount of money it must generate for KK. I consider myself quite a sensible person mostly & it very nearly sucked me in.

No storm, she pushed the gates open and goodness knows where she went! Very unusual for her to wander off - she is usually such a cling on




LOL -!!!!!!



Yeah, I hear you! I couldn't be angry with her! She is really funny and smart. She opened the fride the other day and stole a sandwich. She ate the bread and pork, but left the lettuce and tomato all over the floor!
She is not allowed in the Kitchen and knows where the line is, that she is not allowed to cross and usually doesn't but she snuck in, whilst I was upstairs and stole it.

When I found the evidence, I shamed her and you should have seen the guilt on her face and she ran off and hid in the Bedroom for hours!

Dogs are so funny when they feel guilty!!!

If she's usually a cling on, maybe she went star trekking. :D

I hope 2016 brings you a funnier punchline than 'lol like a loller'. Three cheers to that!

Here's to a year filled with fun, laughter and plenty of what does you good. Enjoy your festivities tonight. I'm having an early night as I'm starting work at 0700. Oh joy! Oh bliss! Thankyou for some entertainment along the way this year.

The fact that even 15 years later you can still get out of bed each day and function as a normal person is kind of amazing though really!

... especially to make hilarious posts like that. That did make me lol.

I have a bad habit of chucking money at stupid games, now I'm very wary on in-app purchases. I just know that that game would suck me in big time and KK does not need my money as much as I do.
 
What is everyone doing for NYE? I have a few vague plans but haven't locked anything in yet. I used to love this night so much and have had some awesome celebrations, but now it's a bit of a pain. I kind of want to stay home but feel obligated to do something.
