  1. thank you for the update waving from Australia
  2. My DH had a completely different upbringing. His parents fought every day. By the time I met them they were living on seperate floors of the house, sharing the kitchen, but having their own fridge and cooking meals seperatly. Any time they crossed paths they would start yelling at each other in German.
  3. In my parents home there wasn't much conflict. I cannot really remember my parents arguing at all. Mind you it was both their second marriage. My bio father committed suicide when I was 3 and my step father first wife dumped all his stuff on the street when he was at work one day and had a new man living with her. So they had both worked our something that worked. Dad worked from 7 am to 7 pm he helped get the littlies to bed when he came home then fell asleep in the loungeroom chair. Mum did all the running of the household and occasionally cut the cable to the TV to stop dad falling asleep in the chair
  4. I don't think any state is changing plans. I think or should I say I hope it is just the PM letting out some of the hot air. I read somewhere where someone was trying to work out what he was saying: that the change of plan is somewhere in the future... Maybe towards the end of next year or some distant time like that
  5. I heard this experiment is going to happen in your state. keep us posted on how it goes
  6. Is that according to the pm he has been expressing for a while his anti suppression ideas
  7. Didn’t they. argh. Not feeling proud anymore
  8. Fly out of the current situation I think
  9. It is our present. it is awful awful awful fleeing from fire coming like that. You take the most ridiculous things.I fled 4 times last year. The first time I had a whole suitcase of sanitary items( really how silly they are replaceable). The 4 th time, when I thought I was getting better I took a car full of saucepans. 😳 I still have a bag packed by the door of all essential documents.
  10. I am not, I am proud, because we Aussies were giving those vaccines to countries with a higher need like New Guinea. Their need was way greater than ours
  11. Mr Swan on abc radio yesterday confirmed what the qld health minister said. Astra Zeneca for people under 40 is way worse than getting COVID in Australia
  12. 🤣 I think she is still polite , just not ignoring to the extent of other premiers
  13. He was never keen on lockdowns anyway. I have had the feeling for a while that he is beating his own drum and everyone is politely ignoring him.
  14. I cannot seem to upload a photo. Says file too big
  15. I would highly recommend not hardscaping over the tanks. They need to occasionally be accessed. I made the mistake of planting a flower garden over mine and it had to be ripped up when the septic backed up once. Now I have lots of potted plants there that can be easily moved to access the tank
  16. I have never had the level of stress you have. but at my most stressed, when I was on the verge of a breakdown I did the reverse of meditation. I filled my brain with noise I listened to The Pirates of Penzance for 30 minutes or more then went to bed. Every single time I woke up my brain was full of pirates singing. I could not thinkor dwell on anything.
  17. That doesn't apply to the delta strain. Here in Australia there are cases that are testing positive and transmiting it after just 24 hours
  18. Leather Belts can still be purchased for treadle sewing machines
