I've been slack

Ok I've been slack posting here sorry about that...
Had a bad cold so I didn't go anywhere I didn't have to go I couldn't see the sence in giving everyone else the coughs and splutters.
Bek had a baby girl she called Emily I call her Em after a rather nice lady I know shhhhhhhhhhhh.
Got the results back from my last essay got a CP which is a ceded pass one up from the fail I got last time with the same subject so an improvement.
Daffs are coming up nicely, I'm not sure what I'm going to do this years with the selling as Simon informed me the one part he doesn't like is the selling part which is where I really need him (in case I want to go to the loo).
Oh yeah it's Simons' 50th birthday today..........
Joshie was 2 friday.
I hate July it's getting too crammed with birthdays

Good news and bad news

Bad news is I am still without a car it was promised I would have it back this week but when I rang them they said next week maybe tuesday. So I'm stuck out here without a car for another 3/4 days grrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Good news is I got the results back from my last uni assignment I got a D+ which is like a B+ the highest being a HD. This unit has been about university culture and essay writing my tutor said it is a very tough unit but I found it a breeze, well I do love writing so I guess that helps.
(Vent) Told my youngest daughter and got a "well mum that's good but your not going to do anything with all the learning so it's not really any big deal." Well yes it is a big deal to me, ok I'm not going to do anything with the degree when I get it but this is the first time I have ever studied with out working full time and that includes when I was going to primary school too. I really do love the encouragement and support I get from my family (not).

Hit a Roo saturday,
I'm fine and the car is in the panel beaters to be fixed. Not too much damage considering only the bonnet and the headlight and blinker. Not sure how long I'll be off the road but Simon said I can use his car to go shopping.

computer saga

Well I have my computer back and fixed.
after all the crap the other guy said all that was busted was the CPU fan, Simons' new techie put one in turned it on and wham bam thank you mam it's fixed ready to hook up.
The first guy told me I lost all my files, it was a boat anchor I needed a new pc etc.
Second guy said I may need a new sound card later.
From what I saw at second techies' home I may have lost a few desktop icons.

Yes right in the middle of a major assignment my computer crashed (go figure).
So right now my pc tower is with some one the local minister brought yesterday. Simons' tower is here as he has no net and I have no tower.
Then this morning bingo no phone line...

All is well now with Telstra and at least I have pc.

My poor speckled fridge

My fidge (for those who don't know) is about to turn 40 and is still working extremely well except for a few parts. The door can't be replace due to them not making parts any more.
This fridge has done several house moves including an interstate one something that usually kills fridges.
I love my fridge.

Edu allowance

Got my $950 yesterday so I'm going to have fun with a bit of it after I pay a few bills.
Merlin and Minney are going to get a fur cut from Ann.

When to take foot out of mouth

Well tonight there is one pissed off professor in WA I asked for help on how to structure sentances which is what I was told this unit would teach me and I feel like I've been blasted for asking..
He informed me he wasn't an english teacher I wasn't a Hemingway nor was I a Clancy of the overflow, I don't particuley like Hemingway nor can I ride a horse let alone write like a thumb nail dipped in tar..
I have already several times told open uni that I just need help to construct sentences.
I'll finish this unit do the next one which is a repeat of the first one and after that I'm out of there..
Right now I feel lower than dirt, I know dumb of me to try.

BHS/PSB

Am I allowed to swear here.
A certain person in BHS got up a few noses last night at the carers meeting.
I went armed with my faithful clip board and written questions a copy of which I gave to him.
I and the others would love to be a fly on the wall when he submits his report of last night.
Yes things have improved over the last 5 yrs but we all agree there is a long way to go.
Our concern is the welfare of those we love, we don't do all this for the fun of it and if we get help then that flows onto them too.
Nearly all of those at the meeting said they had feelings of frastrution with the service and the lack of help we get.

Ides of March

The local group that my daughter C goes to sent her a card that she got today.
I am so glad I found the group for her because they are a great help pity there wasn't one up where R is though.
Feeling a bit rough around the edges today.
Might go find some grass tomorrow.

Old message just found

I found this yesterday while looking for something else didn't find the other thing.
Greetings my friends.
Today's topic is tolerence.
How far have humans traveled since they first walked the Earth?
The answer is not far enough, as in the times you call the dark ages a time when those who walked in fear, hurt the ones they were afraid ofinstead of looking and trying to understand them, they perscuted them. Even today this happens, it happens in our daily lives, things and people we don't understand we fear and we hurt them. This is not the way of love freinds, this is fear and fear is not healthy to us.
Step out of the fear and grow strong and tall. Perceptions can hurt not only others but self also. You are a small drop in the oceans of life, divided you will never grow past a drop of water, together you will becaome an ocean.
Listen and learn friends as the learning comes in many forms, as do people come into your paths, you may not understand at the time but that is a part of your growth.
Love friends and learn.
The Spirit of the Little sister of the Four Winds.
Ishi Nah Wah Tobe
Peace in your Heart.

Peace - Black Hawk

PEACE
By
BLACK HAWK

Channeled through
Irene
The message for tonight is peace, there has been much spoken on this subject over the last few months and years.

Peace is a very fragile creature its beauty is in essence a delicate thing though when we speak of peace we associate it with a dove a beautiful white dove.

But the essence of peace is harmony and understanding, but without these sort of things it is not possible to have peace.

Your world is balancing, slowly balancing and in time peace will be attained.

There are more and more prayers and healing sent to your world and that is good but, not only does your world need the spiritual healing it is also in need of physical healing.

Your captains and kings of industry have polluted the world, your universe, your mountains; your trees are choking on this pollution.

They are getting better (some of them) but while there are millions to be made and it costs millions to repair the damage already done there will always those who shirk their responsibilities.

I have been asked what about the knowledge these people have? It is unfortunate that the knowledge these people have has been misused and abused for they have been given to them for they see knowledge as power and power is something you can hold over a person to make them do what they not necessarily want to do

Got results finally/rain

Got the results for the second essay with HST110 today and I recieved a P and I am so happy about it.
I'm not sure if I passed the reast of the unit but at least I got one pass in.
So onward to SSK12 which is about essay writing and formuli.
To top off a lovely day we had thunder and rain it bucketed down here straight down no wind so the veggies will be really happy tonight they got a lovely drink.

Perhaps I should post messages here

I've just finished a day of study and I'm as confused maybe even more so than ever.
I'm thinking of posting some old messages from spirit here. I haven't witten any for some time mainly because there has been a call to do so.
This one jumped out at me so here goes...

The message that I bring is one of peace.
Sometimes this peace can be attained through solitude, not necessarily the solitude of being by oneself, but the solitude of being in one’s self.
Of being able to attain that state of silence of mind, where your daily worries and cares are placed elsewhere and you are totally at peace within yourself.
A peace, serenity and tranquillity of spirit of your soul, a time when you’re physical shell is stilled. When you can obtain this state then truly can you say you are at peace.
It is a simple state to obtain, but so few are able to achieve it. It is gained, as you are aware through meditation and through various other states like yoga, tai chi.
It is as simple as stepping into a bath and resting in the still waters with your eyes closed, you have no need for music and the more you practice this state the easier it becomes.
Like many our gifts we send you this peace with love and wisdom to share with those whom you touch and to send it on to others who maybe of a need of this peace.
Be at one with it and enjoy it my friends, luxuriate in it.

New study period

Started the new study period yesterday downloaded and printed like crazy.
We had lovely rain last night and some today so I didn't have to water at all thankfully (yes I am using shower or bath water or water I use for cooking).
My veggie patch is looking great right now, the next bed well be at the side of the house (under the lilacs), I'm not sure what I'm placing there but I will have to use some more horse poo.
Good news about the fires there was one near here but they put it out fast.
Also good news the other day I got a small cheque at last from psychic services but have to wait till tomorrow for it to be cash @^%&**^% .
