@tonys 😁

@Owlunar2 Yes half days because of my back (and leg pain). Had my GP appointment - not able to go back to work more than I am presently doing (4hrs/day) for the remainder of the year. I know I cannot physically do anymore than that (some days that is too much) but I do miss my kids ...and at this time of year it is doubly hard.

As expected, the department is waiting for the independent assessment to agree or not to the injections. I am not confident they will agree but I am going to need to find a way to pay for it myself because I can't keep going this way. I had the case manager with me today and it was good to have her there when my doctor said I was worse than last time she saw me.

Hey @Owlunar2 ..   Oh mate...   So I guess you have to recover  and re book the holiday.  Darn..

My holidays revolve around my stomach.  I was going to mention the Tasmanian scallops,  but that wouldn't be good form would it,    Oh,    ooops..   Well it'll give them a bit more time to fatten up.

I will be thinking about you on Thursday,  no B.S either..  When I read about your teeth,  I have to unpick my finger nails out of the couch afterwards.  You have had an absolute shocker mate. 

I used to see people engaged in, Do it yourself surgery,  when I lived on the street.  No mater how hard, I always looked my teeth.  I used to think if I ever lost a tooth,  so long as someone is'nt walking of with it in there knuckles,  I'm doing Ok.  And now all these years later,  I just grin,  and my T bone hides under the plate..

The Anthracene.  You make me wish I went to school..  I think I had a few periods,  just like the planet.

The Young.    I couldn't care less.      The   Middle . . .  I cared to much. . .  The  Old . . .  slipping back into the methane shrouded  apathetic ooze..       Honestly,  I know I shouldn't do it all the time.  but finding a funny side to things keeps me shiny side up. 

And,   I have a lot of faith in young kids.  They are so much smarter than I could ever hope to be,  and I just have to believe,  they will take us to the stars.

I'm saying a prayer for you on Thursday. Rare for me, I know,   but,   Thats how I know it'll work..

@tonys : childhood. Lonely.

20s : popular with my friends and children.

30s no sense of self

40s happily married and managing

50s discovered gummies and oh so much happier……… 

50s NDIS yippee!! 

50s hoping to live in Tasmania……..

I remember when I first met @PinkFlamingo  and thought she was very clever…..

and @TAB ……‘twas cheeky……and @Zoe7 ..I thought her fur babies were her children and pop…….that was my first memory of her …did she have children? No, she has fur-babies
