A long rave

[Mazarita]

Have fun with the packing! @eth

Good morning, @eth

Good morning to you too @Mazarita  How did you sleep?  My night was ok and waking up with something to look forward to is nice.

[Mazarita]

@eth, I've had about five hours sleep. Will try for some more before long. So good you have these trips to look forward to. 

[eth]

Other than more sleep @Mazarita  have you any plans for today?  How is the video coming along?

[Mazarita]

@eth, going to friend's place later to help with some more packing. It seems like we've been doing this move forever. we are so slow with everything. But Friday is the move out day so not long to go now. We will be looking at another place for her the following Monday and hope to strengthen her application this time around by having her brother go guarantor on the lease.

The video I'm working on at the moment is open in another window as I'm chatting with you. It's a difficult one that I've been working on in bits and pieces over several weeks. Still no real end in sight yet, as I haven't settled on images and how they will work with other elements. Just trying lots of different things out until something 'clicks'.

@Mazarita  Having a guarantor sounds like a really good idea.  

Your video process sounds like it's a bit of a challenge but that it takes you away from other pressures of life - that has to be a good thing.

I've got things I need to do this a.m. as I don't know what time the people who I'm getting  a lift with (hopefully) will want to go.  They haven't actually rung to confirm yet so I'm really just going on hope it eventuates.  Very relieved that the skin thing is resolving now.

Once I'm organised I'll check back here to see if you're around.  Sleep well when you do my friend  

[Mazarita]

Thanks, @eth. Hope everything falls into place just as you are hoping.

All sorted now @Mazarita and I've heard from my lift to say they're definitely going, just don't have a time yet.  Really looking forward to sharing NYE with the Black Bulga crew and waking up at dawn in my little tent with the birds.  There are lots of kookaburras up there and they always put a smile on my face.  Do you have plans for tonight? 

I'm also looking forward to being under the stars and hopefully beside a camp fire instead of hearing the fire works.  They don't do anything for me except remind me of when my infant was in intensive care all those years ago (3 months premmie).  At the time the money they spent on fireworks was an insult considering how many more humidicribs were needed.  So many years on and they still put me back there.  That's my rant for today!

Anniversaries can be so tricky.

ALSO ... I'm leaving the tobacco here so it's cold turkey but I don't think I'll miss them too much with so much happening this week and constant company of people who don't.  Reminding myself this morning of all the reasons I want to stop (whilst sucking on one!).

Wishing everyone a peaceful night and a happy New Years Day tomorrow.  @Mazarita @frog @CheerBear @Appleblossom @Faith-and-Hope @outlander @Bunniekins @PhoenixRising @Former-Member @Former-Member @Teej
