Thanks for the kind words redhorizon and it was hard for me having my parents abandon me in some ways but easier at the same time 'cause I was free of them and when I was young I spent so many years trying to hide who I was 'cause I was afraid they would find out and punish me or send me away and I felt like there was something wrong with me 'cause of the way my Father used to talk about homosexual people and there were never any religious reasons for why my Father was against homosexuality like Beccy's parents he was just a bigot who hated everybody that was different than him and if there was a picture definition of the word my Father fitted it perfectly and when he wasn't putting down homosexuals he was complaining about people he called 'black bastards', 'wogs', 'curry munchers' and 'frogs' and saying how they were ruining Australia. While my Mother wasn't as openly a bigot as him I never had a close relationship with her growing up and she spent more time going out with her friends than she ever did with my Sister and I and left us with our Grandfather and Aunt and Uncle and when she did spend time with me she was always telling me what to do and talking down to me and she was very stuck up and nothing was good enough for her.
Still having the two of them abandon me and not once try and contact me or my Sister when they knew how to find us hurt 'cause they were our parents and parents are supposed to love their children and support through everything but my Sister was more like a Mum to me growing up and I learned a lot of things from her along with my Grandfather along and my Aunt and Uncle and when my Grandfather passed away it was one of the hardest days of my life 'cause I was closer to him than I was with my parents and I loved him so much and didn't know how I could handle living with my parents without him. He left us a lot of money and he wasn't a billionaire but he had a lot and would always buy us things and our parents kept the money and never gave it to us and after all these years I wouldn't want it now if my Mother gave it to me but I would want a lot of the photos of my Sister and I with him and things he bought us 'cause those are worth far more than money to me. Both Beccy and I don't have our parents in our lives anymore but we are happy without them and we have a family that love us and support and my Aunts, Uncles and cousins sided with my Sister and I over our parents.
Malshis are adorable and the Maltese Terrier recently came in at number two on the 'Countdown to Australia's Next Top' dog show on Channel 7 behind the Labrador and Occy and Sally look more like Maltese Terriers than Shih Tzus but they get very fury and their fur grows over their eyes if you don't give them a haircut every now and then so we get them groomed regularly and they come back looking even cuter than they did and Sally gets little pink ribbons in her hair. We were originally only going to get one but when we saw the two of them and how close they were we had to get both 'cause I would have felt mean if I had separated them and it is surprisingly easier having two than one 'cause even though they can get into double the mischief they keep each other amused and play with one another. It is sad watching a dog in its final days and I am glad it didn't come as such a surprise to you but it still wouldn't have been easy and the saddest thing about dogs is most of them don't live for a long time even when they are healthy and a lot of people are lucky just to have them for 15 years and I think it is unfair and dogs should at least live for 50 years but they live on in our hearts and I cherish the time we got to spend with our first dog and know we were lucky to have her in our lives. I am sure your dog loved you as ours loved us and thanks again and you make some good points and I don't think there is anything we could have done differently since we didn't know until it was too late.
Yeah. It is strange my Google Chrome plays up some days and others it doesn't and it does it in the night sometimes too and works fine in the afternoon and the 'Not Responding' message drives me up the wall. lol Yes. I did have a CD that had 1000 games on it and it was actually 2 CDs and one was green and the other was blue and the green one had Dos games on it and the blue one had Windows games on it and they sold a lot of games like that in Harvey Norman in the 90s and you would get so many great games in them and some were only demos and others were the complete games. I loved the Commander Keen series, the Hugo series, the Skunny series, Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure, Jill of the Jungle, Paganitzu, Hocus Pocus, Word Rescue, Math Rescue, Lemmings, Jetpack, Kye, Supaplex, Fatty Bear etc etc and those old Adventure PC games were a lot of fun and I was disappointed when the companies stopped making them in favour of shooter games like Doom and Quake and I wish ID Software had never bought Apogee 'cause they held a lot of their properties hostage and wouldn't sell them back to the creators so they could take them to other places to get made and many of them have only got the rights back for the games now. I would love to see some of them come back or new collections of them but I have a Dos Box which can play many of them and my youngest Niece likes a lot of them. I really had myself convinced that religion was the primary cause as to why your parents acted in such a cruel way. Curry munchers must probably be directed towards people like me. I don't understand who are Wogs and Frogs though. Australia is a great place, I don't think it's getting ruined. Although something's maybe happening to the Great Barrier Reef. You certainly have some harsh things to say about your Mom as well. Hope that in time you can move on from all the past hurt.
Hope you get back all your photos and gifts. The gifts were your own. Your parents have no right to withhold them. I think you should accept the money if your Mom ever change her mind and offer it to you. It won't mean that your attitude towards her have to change. Many people fight tooth and nail to attain what is rightfully theirs. Some succeed, others end up getting very little of their share.
Occy and Sally are cute names for little dogs. I bet Sally is oblivious to the ribbons in her hair. It's also easier to distinguish Sally from Occy if they are of the same colour. It's a good thing you didn't separate those two. A dog that lives for fifty years! Imagine the number of puppies getting born. I'd prefer if their puppy stage could last a little longer. One moment they are puppies and the next thing you know they become young adult dogs. Even during our dog Mindy's final days she would wag her tail whenever I saw her and called her name.
I used to buy a tech magazine that came bundled with CDs and it had demo games and software. The CDs had demos or trial versions of the even the best top games of the time. It was a marketing strategy of course. Among the games you mentioned, not one of them seem familiar to me. I was ignorant of most of the games during that period. I did play Doom once, just sampled it really. I liked the movie better. I don't know what a DOS Box is, but it sure sounds like a lot of fun. Truth be told, I'm past the stage of enjoying computer games.
Yeah. No. My Father’s hatred of homosexuality had nothing to do with religion and everything to do with him being a bigot who didn’t like anybody who was different than him and when it comes down to it I honestly don’t think he liked anybody except for himself ‘cause he was often putting shit on all the people who were supposedly his friends and my Mother’s friends behind their backs too and the only thing my Mother cared about was her reputation and she was a very cold, callous and apathetic person but she would put on an act in front of her friends to try and make them think she was such a kind and caring person and it would make you want to throw up when you knew what she was really like and I think she was embarrassed over my sexuality and was worried what her friends would think.
Both of them were very cruel individuals and I am happy to no longer have them in my life and when my Father passed away a few years ago and I found out about it I didn’t feel anything and that might sound heartless or horrible to some people but I stopped being his daughter the day I walked out the door and if he had truly cared about me he would have tried to contact me again which he never did in all those years and I spent years hating my parents for abandoning me but I don’t feel anything for them anymore ‘cause there is nothing to feel. I mean I hear some people say we are selfish when we have falling outs with our parents and we don’t talk to them anymore ‘cause we only get one pair of parents in our lives and not everybody is lucky enough to have a Mum or a Dad but to those people I say they haven’t met my parents.
Beccy’s parents on the other hand were very religious and old fashioned and their religion played a part in them falling out with her but there was more to it than that and Beccy was never the type of daughter they wanted her to be and they thought she was too tomboyish, loud and outspoken and she would tell me they were often comparing her to their friends' daughters and praising them up and asking her why she couldn't be more like them. Sometimes she would have dinner with them and she would talk about the things she was doing at school in some classes and how good she was at basketball and football and nothing she did was good enough for them and it would turn into another night of putting her down and we could relate with each other over our parents 'cause as different as they were they were very similar in some ways and Beccy has told me she felt like I was the only person who cared about her back then.
We spent a lot of time together when we were kids and we would play with each other on my Aunt and Uncle's farm and her Grandparents' orange orchard and we had a cubbyhouse down near the river and we loved going there and it was just the two of us and we used to talk for hours and cuddled each other and we cuddled a lot more than most best friends did and there were times we would be playing around and Beccy would tickle me and hold me down and we would be giggling and we would stop and I would look up at into her gorgeous green eyes and I wanted to kiss her but I was afraid to in case she freaked out over it and didn't want to talk to me anymore and I would think about all the things my Father said about homosexuality and I was so afraid of coming out back then. I knew I loved Beccy from a young age and when her parents stopped us from seeing each other I knew I could never love another person the way I loved her and I never stopped loving her while we were apart.
Australia is a great place and it is definitely not getting ruined by our Multicultural society and sadly we have other people here that are like my Father was and they call themselves part of the 'Reclaim Australia' movement or group and they are constantly blaming people of different races and nationalities for all the problems here and long for the days of White Australia policy completely forgetting that it was the Aboriginal people here who had the land before us. Wogs is a racist term they mostly use to describe people of Greeks, Italian, Maltese and Lebanese descent and I think frogs is for French people. I would love to have the photos and gifts back one day but I am sadly not holding my breath for them and I am just happy we got to spend the time we had with my Grandfather 'cause he was a wonderful man and I still miss him now and I know he would be really happy for me now and I wish I had gotten to spend more time with my Grandmother 'cause she passed away when I was so young but I heard a lot about her from my Grandfather.
It does make it easier to tell the difference between Occy and Sally when Sally has ribbons in her hair but we can usually tell 'cause of their jackets and Occy and Sally have a lot of jackets and they love wearing clothes and we have clothes for them for all seasons and different occasions and they get excited when you put different clothes on them and sit up and wait for you to put them on and they are both very cute. I never thought about the amount of puppies a dog could have in 50 years but that would be a lot and there was a Malshi on the news the other day that was 16 and I am hoping Occy and Sally live that long at least. You really missed out on not getting to play those games and some of those were a lot of fun back then and here are some videos I found of a few of them on You Tube you can watch below. I still like playing video games and I play a lot of them with my youngest Niece but am mostly into cute and friendly ones like the ones on Nintendo Switch and I can't wait for 'New Super Lucky's Tale' and 'A Hat In Time.'

I feel like there's still a lot of resentment and grudge you feel towards your parents. Maybe time will prove to be a good healer, maybe not. Maybe your parents never tried to contact you because they knew where you were staying. But I think it's heartless that they didn't even try to contact you through the phone. Whatever happened, you're still their daughter, they shouldn't have just denied your very existence. All these years, I think Beccy is lucky to have you. From what you've said, it seems both of your parents' friends are to be blamed. I mean, real friendship is accepting you as you are. I've never seen a cubbyhouse or an orange orchard. That must have been so romantic, just the two of you. Those are memories to hold on to. It's wonderful that your love for her survived and stayed strong during those testing times. The Reclaim Australia group probably don't think the Aborigines have any right to land in Australia. I wonder how and when the Italians and French became an inferior class in the minds of these people. As for the Greeks it is a fact that "Greek culture influenced the Roman Empire and many other civilizations, and it continues to influence modern cultures today." Don't worry your Grandfather will always be a part of you. His blood flows through you and he will be in your heart as long as you live. He will surely be proud of you today. OMG, Occy and Sally have jackets!!? Is Occy a male name? That must be some sight both of them running around in their little jackets. I bet they have Christmas jackets too. According to Google Malshis live 12 to 14 years. I think that's pretty good and above average for a dog. Yeah I missed out on a lot of things, not just computer games, you'd be surprised. I spent quite a chunk of time watching parts of all the videos you posted. From the looks of things, my favourite is Cosmo. Hocus Pocus came second but looked puzzling. If I was 10 years younger I would have enjoyed most of these games. Thanks for posting the videos.

If I was 10 years younger I would have enjoyed most of these games. Thanks for posting the videos. It was pretty heartless my parents never tried to contact me again and when I first moved in with my Sister I honestly thought they would just to see if I was alright since I was still their daughter but they didn’t even try once and I think in their eyes I stopped being their daughter when I came out and the two of them were too ashamed or embarrassed to speak to me. My Sister knew what they were like and she warned me they weren’t going to take it well if I told them but I was young and naïve at the time and thought there might have been a chance they would accept it ‘cause they were my parents and I couldn’t hide who I was anymore and I had spent so many years feeling ashamed of myself and thinking there was something wrong with me ‘cause of the way I felt for Beccy and my attraction to other women until I came out to my Sister.
My Sister was the first person I told and she already knew and told me there was nothing wrong with me and she has always been supportive of my sexuality and relationship with Beccy and thinks we’re soul mates and are meant to be together. Coming out to her that day was one of the best things I did when I was young ‘cause talking to her helped me see things in a different light and I was so lost and afraid back then and I felt like I would have to go through life hiding a big part of myself and if I came out people wouldn’t accept me and I would lose everybody. It wasn’t very long before that I had lost my Grandfather and that was one of the hardest experiences I ever went through and after losing him and having my parents abandon me and Beccy’s parents stopping us from seeing each other I didn’t want to live anymore.
It was too much for me to handle at the time and I felt like I was going to crack but my Sister helped me through it and we would fight and I would call her names and say some terrible hateful things to her that I didn’t mean but she didn’t give up on me. It took me a long time to move on from that and I was really depressed and I cried over Beccy the most ‘cause I missed her so much but my Sister and my friends made me see I couldn’t keep living the way I was and after that I felt free for the first time and I was happy being with my Sister and being free of the negative people in our lives but there was a part of me that was still empty and no matter what I did I couldn’t fill that and I would go to parties with my friends and drink a lot and have sex but it was all just a distraction and a way of me trying to bury my feelings deep down.
My relationship with my ex was one of those distractions back then too and it was all just for fun and was never meant to be serious and as it become more serious I didn’t know what to do ‘cause a part of me didn’t want to hurt him but the other part knew I could never love him and when he started to talk about getting married, living together and having kids that was when I started freaking out and I felt guilty and had to break it off with him. That was when I stopped dating guys and decided I had to be with a woman whether it was Beccy or somebody else ‘cause the whole time I was with him I was thinking about Beccy and I would cry myself to sleep some nights thinking about her and when Beccy and I found each other again I had just about given up on thinking there was ever a chance of us being together ‘cause I thought her parents would have forced her to marry a guy and have kids with him ‘cause that is what they wanted.
When Beccy and I finally got together we kinda dived in head first and we didn’t take things slow and it was like we had never been apart and everything was back to the way it used to be but it was even better and from the moment she kisses me I knew I didn't want to be with another person and only wanted to be hers and thanks for the kind words and I think I am lucky to have Beccy too 'cause we have been through a lot together over the years and we have also been through a lot since we got together and she has always been there for me and I am very emotional sometimes and I have some things I don't like to talk about publicly and Beccy is so supportive of me and she makes me want to cry sometimes 'cause she knows all the right words to say and makes me feel loved and special and she has always been protective of me going back to when we were kids and I am not somebody who supports violence but she beat a girl up one time and left her with a bleeding nose and a black eye for weeks 'cause she was bullying and she was a nasty piece of work.
She bullied a lot of other students and I stood up to her 'cause she was bullying one of my friends and she passed me on the ground and she did it again and it really hurt and Beccy had detention for days and had to sit on the seats outside the office when we had morning tea and lunch and she said it was worth it 'cause she hurt me and I used to sneak over and talk to her those days. It was nice being in the cubbyhouse and it just being the two of us and we were together so much when we were kids it made it even harder when we were kept apart by her parents and the emptiness I had inside me wasn't filled until we were together again. Thanks for the kind words about my Grandfather too and there are days when I still wish he was alive to see me now and talk to him and I don't think that feeling ever goes away when you lose people who you love. It is strange thinking about how many years he has been gone now but then I look at how long Beccy and I have been together now and how old my eldest Niece is and we have the Cousin's Christmas party coming up next month and I love going to that but it always makes me feel old when I see how old some of my other Nieces and Nephews are now.
Yes. Occy and Sally have jackets and not only do they have jackets but they have a LOT of jackets here and we have got them all kinds of different jackets to wear through the different seasons and they were wearing Halloween jackets in October and we are going to get their Christmas jackets out for them after we have finished doing our Christmas decorating and they look so cute in those and we often take pictures of them on our mobile phones and send them to my family members and friends. They wear clothes more than me and I have been known to be a nudist sometimes and Occy is a male name and he was named after the surfer, Mark Occhilupo who people call Occy as a nickname whereas Sally was named after my favourite female surfer, Sally Fitzgibbons. We love surfing and we named one of our cats Stephanie after Stephanie Gilmore too and are you a fan of surfing and the WSL?
Those games were pretty good and I am glad you enjoyed the videos of them and did you have any video game consoles when you were younger 'cause I have had a lot over the years and the first video game console I got was a Sega Master System and I had video games like 'Alex Kidd in Miracle World', 'Wonderboy', 'Wonderboy 3: The Dragon's Trap' and 'Dynamite Dux' and Sega was my favourite console at first and I got a Sega Mega Drive and had Sonic but then I moved to Nintendo and I loved the Pokemon, Mario, Donkey Kong, Kirby, and Metroid games to name a few and I have got all the Nintendo consoles since Super Nintendo and we played 'Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker' on Switch recently which is one of my favourites and that is such a cute and fun game and I love Captain Toad and Toadette.

your emoticons are awesome! I got online probably like the end of ‘95. I was on AOL mostly but I am not sure if people used them other places at that time. But i think a couple of years later with upgrades people were using them a little bit. Sadly the ones I use from my phone while posting here look great when using the mobile version but look like crap when people see them on the computer 😀 Like this 🍻 Thanks Jayman. I have 10 folders of Emoticons on my Word Document now and I just have to copy and paste them into the address bar when I want to use one of them and the 10th folder is full of new emoticons I got recently like these ones and I will be getting more in the next week or two along with some Christmas ones I will start using on here near the end of the month and I was disappointed I couldn't get more Christmas emoticons last year but have found more now. Yeah. You have been on the internet longer than me and back then I rarely used computers and I remember when I was in High School the only people who were good at computers were considered to be nerds and dorks and it is funny how much time have changed and how computers have become so popular now and I never thought we would have things like IPads and mobile phones that could go on the internet like you are using and my first mobile phone was so different than the one I have now. Do you have a computer or a laptop or do you only use the internet on your mobile phone and what do you prefer using the most? Deb!!! Great to see you on here at this late hour. Though probably a normal hour for you Sorry I have not gotten back to you in PM. I have been using a cell phone most of the week in my posting but I will be home tomorrow and will be on my computer. It is true it was mostly a nerdy thing way back when and boy have times changed. I have a regular computer but a lot of times I don't use it and just read posts and reply while I'm laying in bed using my phone It is definitely way easier posting on the computer. Using the cellphone is good for shorter posts but for PM's and really long posts there is no comparison. The computer is way better for that

Have you really gave out a laugh everytime you typed LOL? Do you type LOL sometimes just to be polite but there was no laugh? Has there been a time where it was amusing but you didn't laugh but you still typed LOL? Are you a big laugher in general or do you laugh on the inside more? Lol, I ORIGINALLY thought it stood for lots of love, NOT laughing out loud...lol.

I was sick and didn't use my computer for a couple of days. I'm still recovering. Your sister it seems to me is a very wise person. If conditions aren't right and your well being is at stake, it's best for people to stay in the closet until the situation changes. That must have been hard, losing your Grandfather during those tough times. There's a saying that "when it rains, it pours." People tend to vent their frustration and anger to the ones closest to them, that's probably why you fought with your sister. It's amazing that even after you came out and freed yourself you were in some way still in denial of your true feelings. That must have been hard breaking off with your ex. Nobody's at fault. Your soulmate was somewhere else. It was very fortunate at that time that Beccy didn't give up and just married a guy. So Beccy beats up bullies, that is good. I hate bullies. I think bullies should be replied in kind. I never had a chance to exact revenge on the ones who bullied me the most. So Beccy is your super heroine and protector. No wonder you adore her. When I was in school, this was when I was a little kid, there was this mean kid, he was mean looking and taller as well. He provoked me and challenged me to fight him and jumped up onto the bench in the classroom. It was all his idea. The bench idea was his undoing. I managed to push him off and he fell down on the floor and hit his head. The fight ended there. The next time I saw him he had a bandage on his forehead and his parents complained to the headmaster. As a punishment I was summoned to headmaster's office in the middle of my class. He had a long cane but I don't remember him beating me with it. He did made me stand in a corner of his office for an hour. Hey don't feel too old. You just look in the mirror. Mirrors don't lie. Halloween jackets for dogs!! Oh my word! Together with the ribbons Sally must be overdressed when compared to you. She must be thinking, "Why can't I be more like mama Deb?" No I'm not a fan of surfing. I had to look up what WSL was. I hardly watch any TV these days. I had three consoles my entire life. The first one wasn't mine. One of my uncles let me keep it for a few days. I don't even remember its name. But I remember playing boxing in it. My second console was a Nintendo and it had inbuilt games but you could also use cartridges. I bought a number of cartridges over the years, I still have them. The last console I had was an X-Box which I regret buying. I had the luxury of playing just one game in it for a few months and then it malfunctioned. It didn't even have inbuilt storage so I couldn't store game levels without buying an external storage accessory. Soon after that I realized I couldn't afford to buy all those nice games. I never repaired that console. All of the console games you love have cute names. Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker looks awesome, would look great on a big screen TV or monitor.

That’s okay. I completely understand what it is like being sick ‘cause I have been sick a few times this year with the flu and felt tired and miserable on those days and I assume you would be coming up to winter where you live whereas we are heading into summer here in Australia and the last few weeks have been rather hot here and it has felt like we are already in the middle of summer and Beccy and I have been swimming in our pool but it has cooled down a bit the last few days. You probably don’t know about the fires and drought we are having in New South Wales but they are some of the worst bushfires we have had in history and there have been 500 homes destroyed now and the majority of them have been in the last two weeks alone and the last time we had big fires here not even half of many houses were destroyed.
It is a very scary time here at the moment for a lot of people in our state and I am hoping the fires do not come near our house and we have to leave and Beccy thinks we are okay but the fires have been unpredictable so it isn’t easy to tell what towns they are going to spread to next and one thing which doesn’t help is all these stupid arsonists lighting new fires and we have had firefighters put out some fires and seemingly spare towns only to have them relit by these assholes and go on to destroy more homes and they have managed to arrest some of them and most of them have been teens but there have been some older people including a guy in his 40s and it doesn’t bother them that the fires are already bad enough and have destroyed hundreds of homes and they have to make them worse.
We had a thick orange haze in the sky on Friday and it stunk of smoke outside and thankfully it went away so we could do our Christmas decorating on the weekend and Beccy and my Uncle could hang the Christmas lights up out the front but we have smoke in the air again now thanks to the fires and I have mostly been keeping our pets inside ‘cause it is best to keep them away from it and we already had more than 50 people having to be treated for breathing related incidents yesterday and it is not as bad here as it is in some of the city areas but it is still bad. These fires have been a nightmare and I sadly don’t see them being put out by Christmas ‘cause the drought made it harder for firefighters to get water and I think they will still be burning into the new year.
That being said we are looking forward to Christmas this year and having Christmas holidays and our house looks amazing now and we have our Christmas tree and all our Christmas decorations out and we are doing the last of the Christmas shopping this week. My Sister is a wise person and she taught me most of the things I know and has always been one of the most helpful and supportive people in my life and when she got pregnant with my eldest Niece I knew she would be a good Mother unlike our Mother ‘cause she raised me like a daughter and it wasn’t easy moving out when we moved into our first house ‘cause I had spent so many years with my Sister and we both cried. When we got this house we made sure we were closer to my Sister and I can easily walk to her house and see her and my family.
Yeah. Losing my Grandfather was really hard back then and it wasn't the first loss in my life but it was the biggest back then and my Grandmother passed away when I was young and I know more about her from the things my Grandfather told me along with my Sister and Aunt than what I can remember and after she passed away he never remarried and he spent a lot of time with my Sister and me and my Grandfather didn't get along with my Father and at family gatherings they usually had to be separated so they didn't fight and my Grandfather would usually pick us up and take us to his house or he would sit in other rooms with us if my Father was home and the person my Mum was growing up was different than the person she turned out to be from what my Grandfather described.
I never planned on dating guys after I came out but things were very different back then than they are now and nowadays it is a lot easier for LGBT people to find partners 'cause a lot of us aren't hiding who we are anymore and are open about our sexuality but when I was younger it felt like I was the only Lesbian in town and all the other Lesbians I knew were older than me and were already in relationships and I had a crush on one of my High School Teachers who was a Lesbian and she would talk to me after classes about what it was like for her when she came out and talking to her helped. I dated guys 'cause it was easier and a lot of guys liked me and I liked the attention I got and I enjoyed having sex with them and it was mostly an escape going to parties and getting drunk and sleeping with guys ‘cause I was really depressed but it was also a way of rebelling from my Mum.
There was never anything else to it outside of that and my relationships with my exes were more like friendships except my ex fell in love with me and that was when it became hard ‘cause I cared about him and a part of me at the time wished I could have fallen in love with him too and I felt like I was a bad person but I couldn’t and guys didn’t make me swoon and give me butterflies like Beccy did and I am just not emotionally or sexually attracted to men. You are right about my soul mate being some where else and it was fortunate Beccy didn’t give up on us ‘cause I didn’t give up on us but the more years that went by the less likely I thought we would find each other again and I knew I could never love another person the way I loved Beccy and even if I had dated other girls when I was younger it wouldn’t have made a difference.
That’s because I gave my heart away to Beccy when I was young and I never stopped loving her and I doubt I would have loved again if we hadn’t got together ‘cause I honestly don’t think it’s possible to love another person the way I love Beccy. She is kinda like my super heroine and she is so strong and brave and has always been protective of me and she doesn’t like bullies either and I am sorry to hear you were bullied when you were younger but I am glad you were able to sort things out and they left you alone after that and that is the thing with a lot of bullies and they will act tough and bully people until somebody stands up to them and then they will go back and hide in the holes they crawled out of and wow, I didn't know you had the cane when you were in School and my Aunt and Uncle had that when they were in School but it was gone by the time I started going to school in the 80s and when did you start school?
Yes. We have jackets for our Malshis for all different times of the year and different events and they are wearing their Christmas jackets now and we ended up getting them out earlier than we originally planned and they look adorable in them and we don't have kids and my Sister offered to have a baby for us but we decided not to so our pets are our babies so we kinda spoil them rotten sometimes and some of our friends can't believe the things we get for them. We have probably spend thousands on jackets and toys but they are worth it and I can't wait for them to unwrap their Christmas presents. Thanks for letting me know about your game consoles and that is sad about your X Box and the thing I love the most is music and do you have any favourite artists and bands and have you been to many concerts?

Deb!!! Great to see you on here at this late hour. Though probably a normal hour for you Sorry I have not gotten back to you in PM. I have been using a cell phone most of the week in my posting but I will be home tomorrow and will be on my computer. It is true it was mostly a nerdy thing way back when and boy have times changed. I have a regular computer but a lot of times I don't use it and just read posts and reply while I'm laying in bed using my phone It is definitely way easier posting on the computer. Using the cellphone is good for shorter posts but for PM's and really long posts there is no comparison. The computer is way better for that Hey Jayman.
It is nice to see you on here too. How have you been? It is 10:40 pm where we are in Australia now and Beccy and I usually stay up late and I stay up later than Beccy sometimes except for when I have to go to work the next day and I used to be quite the night bird when I was younger and was going to parties and I didn't go to sleep some mornings until 4:30-5 am but now I try to go to sleep at an earlier hour 'cause it is not fun going to work when you are half asleep. I am not really that good with using mobile phones and I know how to call people, send texts and take pictures and videos but when it comes to other things I have to ask Beccy or my friends how to do them 'cause I get confused and I have fallen behind with some of the latest technology and I have used IPads a few times but I prefer using my Laptop to look at websites and write on forums. Times have definitely changed and everything has become so advanced in a short amount of time it is hard to keep up with it and some young people are very technology crazy compared to when I was younger and I can't believe some people wait in lines for hours just to get their hands on the latest mobile phones and IPads and the only thing I would do that for is to see an artist or band I really liked.
I like a lot of new technology but I do worry some young people spend too much time on electronic devices instead of spending time with other people 'cause it can lead to them having poor social skills later in life.

Yeah. No. My Father’s hatred of homosexuality had nothing to do with religion and everything to do with him being a bigot who didn’t like anybody who was different than him and when it comes down to it I honestly don’t think he liked anybody except for himself ‘cause he was often putting shit on all the people who were supposedly his friends and my Mother’s friends behind their backs too and the only thing my Mother cared about was her reputation and she was a very cold, callous and apathetic person but she would put on an act in front of her friends to try and make them think she was such a kind and caring person and it would make you want to throw up when you knew what she was really like and I think she was embarrassed over my sexuality and was worried what her friends would think.
Both of them were very cruel individuals and I am happy to no longer have them in my life and when my Father passed away a few years ago and I found out about it I didn’t feel anything and that might sound heartless or horrible to some people but I stopped being his daughter the day I walked out the door and if he had truly cared about me he would have tried to contact me again which he never did in all those years and I spent years hating my parents for abandoning me but I don’t feel anything for them anymore ‘cause there is nothing to feel. I mean I hear some people say we are selfish when we have falling outs with our parents and we don’t talk to them anymore ‘cause we only get one pair of parents in our lives and not everybody is lucky enough to have a Mum or a Dad but to those people I say they haven’t met my parents.
Beccy’s parents on the other hand were very religious and old fashioned and their religion played a part in them falling out with her but there was more to it than that and Beccy was never the type of daughter they wanted her to be and they thought she was too tomboyish, loud and outspoken and she would tell me they were often comparing her to their friends' daughters and praising them up and asking her why she couldn't be more like them. Sometimes she would have dinner with them and she would talk about the things she was doing at school in some classes and how good she was at basketball and football and nothing she did was good enough for them and it would turn into another night of putting her down and we could relate with each other over our parents 'cause as different as they were they were very similar in some ways and Beccy has told me she felt like I was the only person who cared about her back then.
We spent a lot of time together when we were kids and we would play with each other on my Aunt and Uncle's farm and her Grandparents' orange orchard and we had a cubbyhouse down near the river and we loved going there and it was just the two of us and we used to talk for hours and cuddled each other and we cuddled a lot more than most best friends did and there were times we would be playing around and Beccy would tickle me and hold me down and we would be giggling and we would stop and I would look up at into her gorgeous green eyes and I wanted to kiss her but I was afraid to in case she freaked out over it and didn't want to talk to me anymore and I would think about all the things my Father said about homosexuality and I was so afraid of coming out back then. I knew I loved Beccy from a young age and when her parents stopped us from seeing each other I knew I could never love another person the way I loved her and I never stopped loving her while we were apart.
Australia is a great place and it is definitely not getting ruined by our Multicultural society and sadly we have other people here that are like my Father was and they call themselves part of the 'Reclaim Australia' movement or group and they are constantly blaming people of different races and nationalities for all the problems here and long for the days of White Australia policy completely forgetting that it was the Aboriginal people here who had the land before us. Wogs is a racist term they mostly use to describe people of Greeks, Italian, Maltese and Lebanese descent and I think frogs is for French people. I would love to have the photos and gifts back one day but I am sadly not holding my breath for them and I am just happy we got to spend the time we had with my Grandfather 'cause he was a wonderful man and I still miss him now and I know he would be really happy for me now and I wish I had gotten to spend more time with my Grandmother 'cause she passed away when I was so young but I heard a lot about her from my Grandfather.
Sad to hear of the dysfunctional relationship both you and Bec encountered with your parents. Despite any grievances I had, I at least was luckier than most when I hear about others tales and through my own familial trials and tribulations, love was and is still there. My major beef is my parents rigidity and lack of flexibility. I got mixed signals the most, passive and some physical abuse, but that was just the journey, even if par for the course and is to be accepted.
Deb, what I do find wondrous, is that you and Bec were both blessed to have had each other and shared similar experiences and that you are still together was a godsend. You were meant to be connected in this lifetime and if anything, your parents, Bec's parents and many people would be very fortunate to have what you 2 have.
Hi Toasted Cheese.
I haven't seen you on here for a while. How are you going lately? Sorry I have taken a while to get back to your post but you may have noticed I haven't been posting on here as much as I used to 'cause I have been pretty busy and most of the times I am online I am replying to emails and private messages so I don't have time to reply to posts straight away but I always get around to them when I can and I can't remember if you said what state you live in but what do you think of all the fires we have been having lately and do you live near any of them or have any family or friends that do? They are very scary and I feel so sorry for all the people who have lost their homes and there has been over 500 homes lost now and most of it happened in the last two weeks and I have never seen figures like this and I think it is sadly going to go down as one of the worst fires in the history of our country? When we had the last big fires in New South Wales they came close to us and burned down a fish shop my Grandfather used to take my Sister and I to get fish when we were kids and trees on the way out to one of the shopping centres we often go to were on fire and it was terrifying how close they were to us but Beccy thinks we are okay at the moment and the fires won't come near us.
Thanks for the kind words and it was hard for the both of us growing up with the type of parents we had and hearing some of the things my Father used to say about Homosexuals made me think there was something wrong with me for a lot years 'cause I was so afraid to share my feelings with anybody and was worried what my parents would do if they found out and I thought they would kick me out and I would have to live out on the streets or they would send me to a psychiatrist or some type of boarding school and the more I tried to fight my feelings for Beccy the stronger they got and I couldn't hide it anymore. How old were you when you came out and do you remember how old you were when you first started to suspect you were gay? I was 14 when I came out but I knew long before that and the first time I met Beccy I thought she was the most beautiful girl I had seen and I would tell my Sister all about her every day and we spent a lot of time together and I didn't suspect it at first but then it just kinda hit me one day that I might be gay 'cause I would think about her all time and when my hetero friends would talk about the guys they had crushes on I had no attraction to guys and I thought guys just looked like guys if that makes sense but girls like Beccy were so beautiful and pretty and I would think about kissing Beccy and cuddling her and then I would freak out and wonder what was wrong with me.
For the longest amount of time I didn't know Beccy had the same feelings as me and there were some times when it felt like she might have and one time when we were playing around she was tickling me I thought she was going to kiss me but when her parents separated us I spent a lot of years regretting never telling her how I felt and if I hadn't been so afraid back then I would have told her but I was so scared if I told her she might think I was a freak and looking back I will never forgive her parents for keeping us apart for the amount of years they did 'cause I know we would have got together and I was very close to telling her but I don't regret it 'cause we are together now and we made up for a lot of the years we have been apart and I believe we were meant to be together.

That’s because I gave my heart away to Beccy when I was young and I never stopped loving her and I doubt I would have loved again if we hadn’t got together ‘cause I honestly don’t think it’s possible to love another person the way I love Beccy. She is kinda like my super heroine and she is so strong and brave and has always been protective of me And I gave mine to you Sweetie and will never love another. Come here you.

Here it's not actually much of a 'winter'. It's very mild and on some years because of global warming it doesn't even cool down that much and is actually warm most of the time. It's comparable with temperatures we get during the peak of rainy season in June and July. Only difference being it only rains once or twice during December and January. Can't believe it's actually summer there. Summer here will start only from mid-February. I did read about fires in Australia a while back but then I thought they put it out and I forgot all about it. The fires in America get most of the media attention. It's really scary that the threat of those fires are so close to your location. It would have been unbearable for us if we had to leave our home because of an uncontrollable fire. Why would these arsonists relight the fires? Are they crazy? I did read before that you had a number of pets, it must be hard to manage them all and keeping them confined within the house. That must be tough for the firefighters, trying to contain a fire which seems beyond their capabilities. If there are winds the situation will worsen. There's still a month left for Christmas. Looks like the preparations in Australia begin early. It's good that you live close to your Sister's now. Must be reassuring to know that she is close by. Yeah, I've seen relatives not in good terms with each other picking up quarrels during get-togethers. I've been at the receiving end as well. Not something I wish to think back on. So your Mom was a better person while growing up. Maybe it was the wrong circle of friends later that brought about the change. That's some way of rebelling against your Mom. But it's understandable, you must have hit rock bottom. Beccy and you share a childhood bond, that will be hard for you to replicate with other girls, or other men for that matter. My school years were from the mid 80s to the mid 90s. There was caning and other sorts of punishment all through my school years. My school was under the control of the Church and there was the Bishop's mansion just opposite the school. I was caned from time to time for most of the 11 years I was in school, just like the other kids. Not doing homework, not answering questions correctly or failing in tests were the main reasons the teachers punished us. There was caning on the palm, back, buttocks and legs. Rapping on the knuckles with a wooden scale was another way which was a favourite among the female teachers. They ordered us to stand on our benches and to remain that way till the bell rang. Then there was ear twisting and pinching. Also we were made to kneel on the rough concrete sand strewn floor while holding our textbook or schoolbag over our head until the bell rang. Imposition was another milder but annoying form of punishment. I'm pretty sure I've forgotten other ways they punished us. I know how your Sister offered to have your baby and how you decided to decline. Wait a minute, how do you give your dogs Christmas presents and how do they unwrap them? I hope they don't fight with each other for the presents. I've only been to a few concerts my entire life. International artists are rarely seen in my city. I do love music. But it seems our music tastes are clearly divergent. I read a post you wrote long ago about how much you hated electronic music, I wanted to comment on that but I didn't. I listen solely to Electronic dance music (EDM), and to be more precise, the sub-genres of Trance music - Psychedelic trance, Uplifting trance and Vocal trance. The artists I dig the most change from time to time, but I thought I'd make a list for you. DJs :- Gareth Emery Beat Service Lange Ronski Speed Sean Tyas Cold Rush Armin van Buuren Above & Beyond Stargazers Jorn van Deynhoven
Vocalists :- Ana Criado Sarah Lynn Neev Kennedy Cathy Burton Jo Cartwright Cynthia Hall (r.i.p) Jennifer Rene Roxanne Emery (younger sister of Gareth Emery) Sue McLaren Ellie Lawson

I was caned from time to time for most of the 11 years I was in school, just like the other kids. Not doing homework, not answering questions correctly or failing in tests were the main reasons the teachers punished us. There was caning on the palm, back, buttocks and legs. Rapping on the knuckles with a wooden scale was another way which was a favourite among the female teachers. They ordered us to stand on our benches and to remain that way till the bell rang. Then there was ear twisting and pinching. Also we were made to kneel on the rough concrete sand strewn floor while holding our textbook or schoolbag over our head until the bell rang. Imposition was another milder but annoying form of punishment. I'm pretty sure I've forgotten other ways they punished us. I know how your Sister offered to have your baby and how you decided to decline. Wait a minute, how do you give your dogs Christmas presents and how do they unwrap them? I hope they don't fight with each other for the presents. I've only been to a few concerts my entire life. International artists are rarely seen in my city. I do love music. But it seems our music tastes are clearly divergent. I read a post you wrote long ago about how much you hated electronic music, I wanted to comment on that but I didn't. I listen solely to Electronic dance music (EDM), and to be more precise, the sub-genres of Trance music - Psychedelic trance, Uplifting trance and Vocal trance. The artists I dig the most change from time to time, but I thought I'd make a list for you. DJs :- Gareth Emery Beat Service Lange Ronski Speed Sean Tyas Cold Rush Armin van Buuren Above & Beyond Stargazers Jorn van Deynhoven
Vocalists :- Ana Criado Sarah Lynn Neev Kennedy Cathy Burton Jo Cartwright Cynthia Hall (r.i.p) Jennifer Rene Roxanne Emery (younger sister of Gareth Emery) Sue McLaren Ellie Lawson
Hi again
How are you today? I sadly haven’t been having the best week here ‘cause I currently have a wisdom tooth coming through on the bottom left side of my mouth that is bumping into another tooth and it really hurts sometimes and has been giving me the worst headaches and I have seen the Dentist and am thankfully getting it removed tomorrow afternoon. It sucks having another wisdom tooth coming through like this and it was around a year ago I had to have a wisdom tooth on the bottom right side of my mouth removed but this is the last one and my top two Wisdom Teeth came through ages ago and I didn’t have to get them removed ‘cause I didn’t have problems with them but this one and the last one have been pains in the butt and I am looking forward to getting rid of this one.
I won’t be able to eat properly again for a while and I will miss out on a lot of the Christmas foods we have like our Cadbury and Jelly Belly Christmas Advent calendrers which Beccy is going to have to eat for the two of us but it will be worth it to no longer have this pain in my mouth and I have seen some pictures of other impacted wisdom teeth and mine isn’t as bad as those and I don’t have any cysts or infection but it is still hurts when it plays up and I have had experience with pain over the years and I learned to live with that on bad days but don’t need this on top of it. It has been boiling hot here and summer is off to a hot start and that is strange how your winters are and we have had some hot days in winter that feel like summer but for most of the season it is cold for us.
This year was one of the coldest winters we have had in a long time and our autumn was pretty cold too and we don’t get as much rain as we used to get here and when I was younger it used to rain for hours, days and weeks and we would get two weeks full of nothing but rainy days for example but it is extremely rare when that happens now and usually we just get 10, 15 or maybe even 20 minutes where it will pour down raining and then it will be gone. It still occasionally pours down in bucket loads and we have had to put towels up against our front door to stop the water from coming in our house 'cause our next door neighbours' drain gets blocked but rain like that is becoming rarer all the time and the places that have been hit the hardest by the drought and the fires that really need it the most don't get it and they are just getting thunder, lightning and wind which is causing the fires to spread more. I think that has to do with climate change and global warming too but we have people who will fiercely deny that no matter how much things change and our former Prime Minister, Tony Abbott was a known climate change denier and embarrassed us in front of the world with some of his comments.
We have now had close to 800 homes destroyed by the fires and I don't know why the arsonists are doing it but we have had quite a few arrested lately and many of them have been teenagers and there was one big fire a group of teenagers appeared to have caused by mistake when they were playing with fireworks which are supposed to be illegal here and from what was described they tried to put the fire out at first but it quickly got out of control and grew in size so they fled and it is sad how young some of these arsonists in groups have been and it was reported some were only as young as 10 and I don't think they understand the seriousness of their actions 'cause they are just being lead astray by older kids in their groups. One celebrity here that has been affected by the fires is Russell Crowe and some of his property in Nana Glen has been burnt by the fires which you can read about in the article below and it is terrible for all the people who have been affected by this and I have heard about the California fires too and I also heard they are having a snowstorm which I hope helps put them out. www.news.com.au/lifestyle/real-life/news-life/dramatic-before-and-after-photos-from-russell-crowes-fire-damaged-nsw-property/news-story/4f17c728ee06d1b9c63530adbfc4db4aYeah. We have 20 days left to Christmas now and everybody is excited about it here and ready for the big day and our pets have their cute Christmas clothes on and Christmas Paw Patrol picture hanging up and we have a 'Paw Patrol' channel here at the moment and we have been leaving it on for them and Occy and Sally love watching that show and just hearing the character's voices and they know which ones they are and they even get their 'Paw Patrol' plush toys when some of them are on. Sally's favourite 'Paw Patrol' character is Skye and she has Skye everything here () and Skye is the cutest and Occy likes Rubble and he has a Rubble toy that barks and says "Rubble on the double" and I will post two of their plush toys below. It is nice living near my Sister along with my Nieces, Nephew and Brother In Law and we see each other or talk to one another on the phone at least once or twice every day and she is sick at the moment and had to have the day off work and she told me she was going to keep her distance so she didn't share it with me 'cause she didn't want me sneezing or coughing when I am getting my wisdom tooth removed and hopefully her summer flu doesn't last long.
I am sorry to hear you have been on the receiving ends of some quarrels at family gatherings and I imagine that would have been uncomfortable and thankfully most of my family get along and it was only my Mum and Dad they didn't really get along with and two of my cousins were recently fighting over something but they have made up now. My Mum was a better person growing up from all the stories I have heard about her and I think it did have to do with her falling into the wrong crowd but she never tried to change and I am better off without her in my life. Beccy and I do share a childhood bond and I don't think I could have what I have with her with another person and Beccy was always the one person I wanted to be with growing up and she wanted the same but sadly her parents prevented that from happening for years and I will forever hate them for what they done to her. The way they treated her when she was younger was horrible and they did nothing but put her down and people like that shouldn't be parents and neither should have mine but Beccy's went one step further than my parents did with me and tried to control her life.
Yes. Our pets have presents wrapped up and we get down on the floor with them on Christmas Day and help them unwrap them and they will try to scratch the wrapping off and chew it off a little and we will lift up some parts to make it easy for them and it is very cute watching them do it and they love getting presents but then when we have birthdays and we are unwrapping presents and they aren't they are wondering where their presents are. Thanks for letting me know that about your school and your favourite artists and bands and I don't hate Electronic Dance Music but it is just really not my type of music if you know what I mean and it is like Rap and Hip Hop and I am not big on those genres either. I like a variety of artists and bands of different genres though such as Carrie Underwood, Martina McBride, Trisha Yearwood, Jessica Andrews, Chely Wright, Shania Twain, Faith Hill, Shedaisy, Lee Ann Womack, Mackenzie Porter, Lisa Brokop, Gina Jeffreys, Dolly Parton, Doc Walker, Emerson Drive, The Wilinsons, Rascal Flatts, Vince Gill, Mark Wills, Paul Brandt, Blue Oyster Cult, Uriah Heep, Nazareth, Black Sabbath, Night Ranger, Whitesnake, Bon Jovi, Dokken, REO Speedwagon, Kiss, Journey, Foreigner, Heart, Judas Priest, Status Quo, Deep Purple, Def Leppard, Styx, The Who, Winger, Enuff Z'Nuff, The Pretenders, The Carpenters, Magnum, UFO, Pat Benatar, Scorpions, Saxon, April Wine, Rush, Todd Rundgren, The Cars, Cheap Trick, Grand Funk Railroad, the Divinyls, The Cure, Go West, Triumph, Tears For Fears, Yes, Letters to Cleo, Gin Blossoms, The Goo Goo Dolls, Jebediah, Something For Kate, Collective Soul, Liz Phair, the Superjesus, Heather Nova, Jewel, Sheryl Crow, Natalie Imbruglia, Silverchair, Savage Garden, Ratcat, You Am I, Powderfinger, Better Than Ezra, Aimee Mann, Soul Asylum, Edguy, and many others.

Hi! I'm doing well today. Oww that's awful hearing about your wisdom tooth. I never had any problems with those. I hope everything went smoothly at the Dentist's. Maybe it's for the best you don't have to eat those chocolates cos you don't have to worry about gaining weight. Tell Beccy to watch out though. I had recurring cyst problem in one of my teeth. I have had done minor surgical procedures three times for the same tooth. You must have a high pain threshold. You are strong in a lot of ways.
Here, I hope it gets cooler as December progresses, it's still a little warm right now. This year we had some very heavy rainy days where the roads became submerged. By some stroke of luck our house is situated on a slightly elevated ground even though it's imperceptible to the naked eye. So the water doesn't really reach our door steps. According to a UN study our city Kochi is among the cities that would get submerged by sea level rise due to climate change. Other prominent cities in that list were Mumbai, Chennai, New York, Miami, Amsterdam, Venice, Shanghai etc.
It's good that fireworks are illegal there. I wish it was the same here. As I am typing this, noisy firecrackers of varying kind are being burst as part of some celebration at the nearby church. For whatever reason they are doing it, I hate it when the peace and calm are disturbed by these extremely loud noise polluting fireworks and firecrackers. Even the pets hate it.
I read the Russell Crowe article and watched the video. He looks like Noah in the forest only this time he's up against fire and its aftermath. Before I saw your message I was reading news and saw this short scary video about the Sydney fire. I don't believe Occy and Sally actually watch a TV show and even enjoy it. You're kidding me right? Our pets never watch TV or even acknowledge its presence. Yeah, Skye is cute alright. You and Beccy really do treat them like your own children. That is so cute, the custom of you and your pets unwrapping presents. On our dogs' birthday, which is the same day cos they are fraternal twins, my Mom bakes a cake and gives them large slices and they are so excited. Wishing you and your sister good health, freedom from aches and pains. Thank you for your kind words. Does your mother like you or think about you now, maybe she has realized what a mistake she made but is afraid to make the first move. Undeniably, I know one right thing that your parents and Beccy's parents did. That is to create wonderful children like you, your sister and Beccy. I don't really like Rap and Hip Hop either. Add R&B and Soul to that list. I don't understand what the big deal with Rap is. I've heard and liked many of the artists you've mentioned. The others I've not heard of. But there is only one band in that list whose album I actually own. It's Savage Garden's Affirmation.

There is not much longer until Christmas is here and we are one week away from the big day and two weeks away from 2020 and I have broken up from work now and am on Christmas holidays and I won't have to go back until February and Beccy will be finishing on Friday and won't have to go back to work until the end of January and I am looking forward to having the next few weeks all to ourselves and being able to sleep in and not having to do much but this has been a very busy and exciting week so far and we are going to a Christmas Costume party tomorrow night and I haven't been to a costume party for years and I used to go to a few of those types of parties when I was younger and I won 'Best Costume' at one and on Saturday we will be going to the 'Cousin's Christmas party' I have mentioned on this thread a few times and I am looking forward to going to that the most. We will be spending Christmas Eve at my Auntie and Uncle's house and my cousin, Jennifer and her husband will be coming over for that and on Christmas Day we will be having my Sister, Brother In Law and Nieces and Nephew here and last year we had Christmas at my Sister's house so this year they are having it at ours and we usually take turns with that and Easter and are you planning on doing anything special for the holiday season?
I have had my wisdom tooth removed since I last wrote to you and I am in a lot less pain than I was a week ago thankfully and if I had to keep putting up with that I think I would have gone insane 'cause that was so painful and was giving me mind blowing headaches and I was literally lying down holding my head some nights and the problem was it was going into another tooth and it damaged the other tooth and I still have to get it fixed but since it is one at the back I haven't been in a big rush and I am just happy to be free of the tooth. It is hard not being able to eat all the food I usually eat and even though I had to do the same thing last time I got my wisdom tooth removed you get used to eating certain foods and it makes things difficult when you can't eat them. I haven't been eating much at all since I got it removed and I went to my Work Christmas Lunch yesterday and didn't eat much but I still had a good time and my boss bought us presents. I have been drinking a lot of drinks though and do you know what I am eating now? Custard and I love custard and I have got the Paul's Double Thick French Vanilla custard which is my favourite and we also have the chocolate one in our fridge.
Oh. I am not really worried about gaining weight. I am one of those lucky people who rarely puts on weight and I have always been like that but I do walk and run a lot and while we have had haze and smoke outside I haven't been taking Occy and Sally for their walks but have been using my treadmill a lot and I would say I am in the best physical condition I have been in my whole life at the moment and I am always eat healthy and as a vegetarian I eat a lot of vegetables and I love fruit but I like having some chocolates, lollies, biscuits and cakes every now and then and don't believe staying healthy means you have to give up eating all delicious foods. You just have to learn how to balance and not have too many of them. I am not as in good shape as Beccy though and very few people I know are and she is into weightlifting and has muscles I couldn't dream of having and I can't even lift most of the things she can. She is stronger than most guys I know and can lift my Uncle above her head and I love watching her work out and she is so strong and sexy.
I am sorry to hear you had a recurring cyst problem in one of your teeth and I imagine that must have been very painful for you and I do have a high pain threshold and it is not something I like to talk about online but I have a mild form of Endometriosis and suffer from Chronic pain and it is not as bad as what some others have to deal with and most days I am fine but on my bad days it can be really hard and when I first found out about it I was really upset but Beccy was there with me and she has been very supportive and I couldn't do it without her and it is another one of the many reasons I love her so much. I know other people who have worse forms of Endo than me that have had their lives turned upside down and everyday is hard for them so on my bad days I think about people like that and how I don't have it as bad as them and it helps me get through the days. I don't let things like that control me and I am the only one who is in charge of my life.
I hope you have some colder days and we would love to have those here with the fires and the drought 'cause things keep getting worse here and there were recently 20 buildings lost in the Blue Mountains and I have read all up in our state we have had a total of to 744 homes destroyed along with 49 facilities and 1582 outbuildings and it is a huge number and it is one of the worst fires we have had in history and it is sadly not going away anytime soon as much as we hope it would and there haven't been any signs of rain which is what they need the most now. It doesn't help either the Government and the Opposition are delaying and stalling things to help the firefighters and people with the drought and we had all these firefighters made redundant recently and they were told if they wanted to keep fighting the fires they would have to do it for free and I found that to be really pathetic and the firefighters are going out everyday fighting these fires and risking their lives to try and save people and houses but they have problems paying them? It is unbelievable but 90 percent of the time our politicians only care about themselves and it would have to be their houses on the line for them to care.
I am surprised fireworks aren't illegal where you live let alone around the world 'cause they are dangerous and people hurt themselves using them along with other people and set things on fire and that is the reason they got banned here in Australia in the first place and I wasn't alive in the 70s to see it but apparently there were a lot of accidents that lead to them being banned. A similar thing happened here after the Port Arthur Massacre when John Howard banned guns and the level of gun related violence was on the rise in the 90s but significantly decreased after that and we still have some gun violence here but it is very rare and we don't have mass shootings. I only know one person with a gun and that is one of my cousins who is a Federal Police Officer and she rarely has to use her gun when she has arrested people.
Yes. Occy and Sally watch TV and we usually take them over to the TV when their favourite shows are on and they wave at them and they recognise the sound of the voices of their favourite characters in TV Shows and I don't know if you have heard of 'Sooty' but there is a character called Sweep that Occy loves too that makes funny noises and when Occy hears him he wants to go over to the TV and see him and they have a few favourite shows and favourite songs they will listen to and get excited and roll over on their backs and throw their arms and legs in the air like they are dancing to them. Sadly the 'Paw Patrol' channel unexpectedly ended the other day so they can't watch that at the moment but we can still record the episodes in the daytime and the new 'Paw Patrol' movie is on the way. They are like our children and sometimes they are well behaved but other days they can be rather naughty like Occy is being tonight and he is upset 'cause I am in this room writing on here and not out there with them and he has Beccy with him but he wants me and keeps making crying noises for me so I am going to have to cuddle him soon.
That is nice what your Mum does for your dogs and I don't know if my Mother thinks about me anymore but I don't think about my parents 'cause I would rather think about my other family members who I know love me and support but thanks for the kind words and that was one of the few good things my parents did. I am glad I was able to get all the Christmas emoticons I could this year and I have found so many of them I didn't have previous years and this is one of my favs.

Hi! Sorry for the late reply. That's great you won for Best Costume at one party. What was the costume and what was the prize? I can understand how a Halloween costume party might look. But for a Christmas Costume party, are there enough choices? No I didn't do anything special for Christmas. My sister and her family are coming for New Year and we might all go out someplace. Mom baked a lot of soft and crunchy chocolate cookies for Christmas. She made a big jar of red wine but I don't drink wine. She also made some banana wine earlier. Mom, Dad, Sister, Brother-in-Law & Nephew went for a trip to a hill station for a few days. They're back home now. That is sad to hear that you suffered a lot with those teeth. I hope the second affected tooth won't give you as much trouble. I understand, with food, the biting part must be easy, the chewing part really hard. Yes, I have a recurring cyst problem, but no, it wasn't painful. I have an Aunt and Uncle and my cousins their Son and Daughter-in-Law and grandson living in Melbourne. Currently they are here in Kochi to spend the holidays. Not long ago this Aunt had teeth problems and needed to replace a few teeth with artificial ones. According to them the treatment was so expensive in Melbourne, that they decided to fly to my city just to see a dentist here. Even with the travelling expenses taken into account it was still a better deal. There was also the added benefit of getting to meet family members here. That's nice that you got a present at Work Christmas Lunch. I would love to have some Custard now. My mom makes good Caramel Custard. Paul's Double Thick French Vanilla custard sounds real yummy. I wish I had a treadmill. I definitely need to lose kilos. I do have a Exercise Bike but I don't use it often. You're a vegetarian! That's surprising. I can see that you are having a healthy lifestyle and being the best version of yourself. Good for you. OMG Beccy can lift your Uncle over her head!? Is your Uncle Danny DeVito by any chance? Just kidding. That's awesome that she's into weightlifting. I was good at arm wrestling with friends when I was younger, but I think Beccy can beat me in an instant. I searched for 'Endometriosis', I've never heard of it before, good to hear you have only a mild form, but chronic pain must be hard to ignore. Stay strong, I hope the bad days don't come too often.

I have a feeling that your mother might be thinking about you from time to time, I've read somewhere that you are not the person you are 5 years from now. So people change, for better or worse. Your favourite Christmas emoticon is very cute, but it doesn't look that good on my screen cos I have the dark theme on and there's a little too much contrast with that emoticon.

Hi! Sorry for the late reply. That's great you won for Best Costume at one party. What was the costume and what was the prize? I can understand how a Halloween costume party might look. But for a Christmas Costume party, are there enough choices? No I didn't do anything special for Christmas. My sister and her family are coming for New Year and we might all go out someplace. Mom baked a lot of soft and crunchy chocolate cookies for Christmas. She made a big jar of red wine but I don't drink wine. She also made some banana wine earlier. Mom, Dad, Sister, Brother-in-Law & Nephew went for a trip to a hill station for a few days. They're back home now. That is sad to hear that you suffered a lot with those teeth. I hope the second affected tooth won't give you as much trouble. I understand, with food, the biting part must be easy, the chewing part really hard. Yes, I have a recurring cyst problem, but no, it wasn't painful. I have an Aunt and Uncle and my cousins their Son and Daughter-in-Law and grandson living in Melbourne. Currently they are here in Kochi to spend the holidays. Not long ago this Aunt had teeth problems and needed to replace a few teeth with artificial ones. According to them the treatment was so expensive in Melbourne, that they decided to fly to my city just to see a dentist here. Even with the travelling expenses taken into account it was still a better deal. There was also the added benefit of getting to meet family members here. That's nice that you got a present at Work Christmas Lunch. I would love to have some Custard now. My mom makes good Caramel Custard. Paul's Double Thick French Vanilla custard sounds real yummy. I wish I had a treadmill. I definitely need to lose kilos. I do have a Exercise Bike but I don't use it often. You're a vegetarian! That's surprising.

That’s okay. I am kinda late with my reply too ‘cause I have had a lot of emails and private messages to reply over the last week and I haven’t had much time to write long posts but I am have now and it is a new month, a new year, a new decade and I hope you enjoyed Christmas even though you didn’t do anything special for it and you had a good New Year’s Eve with your Sister and her family and we still have our Christmas decorations up here but we are taking them all down tomorrow and I am not looking forward to doing that ‘cause I love having them up but they have to go now ‘cause Christmas was over a week ago and we started taking some things down and Beccy has got the boxes out ready for everything to be packed away.
It is probably going to take us ages to take everything down and pack it away tomorrow ‘cause Beccy and I put up so many Christmas decorations in November and that feels like it has just rushed by and we still have new Christmas movies, albums and books we didn’t get around to watching, listening to or reading but we will have next Christmas to do that. We had a fantastic Christmas though and I got lots of presents and Beccy did too including a lot of things she wasn’t expecting to get but it was our pets and my Nieces and Nephew that got the most and they loved all the things we bought them for it and my Nieces loved the ‘Frozen 2’ things the most and I talked to my Sister about that before we bought them any ‘Frozen 2’ things to make sure we didn’t buy them the same presents my Brother in Law and her were getting for them and my Sister loved what I got her and she thought I spent too much money on her but I always do.
Did you get many presents for Christmas last week? I love biscuits and cookies and bake them myself but I have never made red wine and have never been a fan of it either even when I used to drink and wine was disappointing when I first tried it ‘cause I love grapes and thought I might like wine but ohh yuck () and it wasn’t as bad as beer or whiskey but I didn’t like the taste of it at all but I hope your Mum enjoyed it and I didn’t know could have banana wine but Vodka used to have a lot of flavours and I liked Iced Coffee, chocolate, strawberry, banana, raspberry, pineapple, watermelon etc. It has been so long since I drank Vodka I don't know if they even sell those anymore and I never liked alcohol that much which is why it was easy for me to give it up. Now giving up coffee would be a different story 'cause I really love coffee and I need to have my twenty something different flavours in the cupboard and I am having a Robert Timms Italian Espresso Style coffee bag now.
My last two Wisdom teeth were nightmares and it is kinda funny how they both picked the exact same time of year to come through a year apart and thankfully they didn't come through at the same time or it would have been worse. I have been slowly eating more things now and today I had cut up bananas and mangoes with green grapes and blueberries and I loved having grapes and blueberries again and there are so many fruits I have been missing having and I could probably live on fruit and not eat anything else 'cause I love fruit so much. Although I would miss chocolate. Yeah. Biting and chewing things is hard and I have been keeping most foods to the right side of my mouth and the next thing I will be having again is bread and I will probably have a Peanut Butter sandwich. That's sad your cyst has been a reoccurring problem but I am glad it wasn't painful. That is interesting you have family living in Melbourne but I sadly can't say I am surprised about the coast of that treatment 'cause Melbourne is known for being very expensive here and if you think Melbourne is expensive Sydney is worse and is one of the most expensive places to live in the world and I have heard you can buy a small mansion in Spain for the price they are charging people to rent houses in Sydney at the moment and that is ridiculous and we have had people come here from other countries hoping to live in Sydney that changed their minds after they realised how much it costs and while we enjoy going to Sydney sometimes and will be taking my youngest Niece to 'The Grounds of Alexandra’ later this month 'cause they have turned it into 'Frozen 2' for a limited time with the ‘Enchanted Forest’ and ‘Crystal Lane’ and 'Frozen 2' inspired food and drinks everything costs twice or three times as much as it costs where we live and just a bottle of water or a soft drink can be such a ripoff and I wouldn't want to live there.
I actually had some custard not long ago except I had the Paul's Double Thick Chocolate Custard this time and I would love it if they released it in Strawberry and Mint flavours and they used to have Strawberry Custard years ago and it was delicious but they stopped selling it and I haven't seen it in any shops around here since the 90s. Treadmills are always good to have in your house and you can get them cheaper in some places here than others and my Sister and Cousin (Jennifer) have them too and I have used an excercise bike but I prefer the Treadmill. I have been a Vegetarian since I was 9 or 10 and I turned off eating meat when I was young 'cause I love animals and saw some shows about what they do to them and couldn't eat chicken, cows or pigs anymore and we have a pet pig so I couldn't picture myself ever eating bacon or ham again. We do eat Seafood though and we like prawns, crab sticks, calamari rings and some fish so some might say we aren't fully Vegetarians but that is the only meat we will eat and we know other Vegetarians who eat Seafood too. Beccy is very strong and she has always been stronger than most since we were kids but not as strong as she is now and she can lift my Uncle and he is a regular sized guy but you have you be careful what you do to him or he will fart and he is disgusting with some of the things he does and has always found rude things hilarious. I forgot to mention in regards to Savage Garden they were a great band and I am still surprised they broke up 'cause they were one of the biggest bands in our country when they did and a third album was almost guaranteed to be a hit. I liked 'Affirmation.' Although their first album was my favourite and I saw them in concert a couple of times and Darren Hayes solo. Darren Hayes as a solo artist was never as popular as he was in Savage Garden and he had some hits out here and 'Insatiable' got played a lot on the radio and music channels but everything else never reached the same heights as Savage Garden. One of the backup singers (Jennifer Waite) had her own band called Aneki and they were fairly good and I liked their debut album but they sadly didn't last very long. There are a lot of new albums coming out this year by artists and bands like Jewel, Blue Oyster Cult, Magnum, Aleyce Simmonds, Harem Scarem, Jorn and H.E.A.T. I am looking forward to getting this year and I am a big fan of Jewel and can't wait to hear her new album and Blue Oyster Cult's new album is their first of brand new material in 19 years.
Our Malshis are very clever and cute with the things they can do and they were barking at the TV recently 'cause there was a character yelling at people in a movie we were watching and they didn't like their voice and Occy started first and then Sally joined in too and that is how it usually starts here and then the two of them are barking and crying over things at the same time. We got them a Babble Ball not long before Christmas and they love that and I don't know if you have heard of one of those but they keep the two of them amused for ages and the babble ball makes all these weird and funny sounds anytime they touch it and Occy was the first one to play with it and was scared of it at first and was jumping backwards but now he loves it. 'Paw Patrol' is an animated show and it has been going for 7 seasons now and is still very popular. Here are two videos of Aneki.

Hi Deb! I keep forgetting it's a new decade, feels like any other new year. Taking down Xmas decorations won't take as much time and effort as putting them up but it's still a chore. Besides you no longer feel the Christmas spirit, so it's not as enjoyable. I saw a Frozen 2 puzzle game for kids on an online shopping site. Hey, I was actually watching Frozen 1 a few days ago. No I didn't get any presents for Christmas. Exchanging presents for Christmas was never a regular thing in my family. You bake too! That's cool. Good for you that you decided to give up drinking. I don't drink either. Dad bought some Feni from his recent trip to Goa. Feni is an alcoholic drink produced in the state of Goa. Mom asked me if I wanted some and I said no. I like coffee and tea. No reason to give that up. That's awesome you can get those different types of coffee there. Here we get sachets of ready to make cappuccino. I like it chilled. Just a few days back, I bought the mocha flavoured box. We don't get blueberries here. I'm pretty sure you'll get tired of eating just fruit alone all the time. I like having bread with jam, butter or cheese spread. I might have to go to the dentist again soon, but I'm hoping it doesn't happen for a few months. Yeah, I did read before your comparison of Sydney and Spain. I didn't knew that there was so much difference between those two places. I read that they canceled the Sydney fireworks for New Year because of the bush fires. The Grounds of Alexandra sounds like a magical place. I would love to have some 'Frozen 2' inspired food and drink cos it's warm here now. Paul's Double Thick Chocolate Custard, that sounds tempting. You must still be having semi solid foods a lot. A manual treadmill is cheaper here than a real treadmill. I like pork more than beef but it's only on the menu in one or two restaurants. We buy pork from the market and Mom usually makes Pork Vindaloo which is great. I vaguely remember you mentioning having a duck or goose as a pet as well. As far as seafood is concerned, seeing big fish like dolphin, shark and rays in the throes of death is as disconcerting as seeing a cow or goat getting slaughtered. The truth is, I can't bear to watch even a chicken being killed. Your Uncle must think he is very funny. He is bound to do those things when Beccy picks him up again. Be careful not to drop him. That's sad that Savage Garden didn't release more albums. I liked Affirmation too. I was probably the first person in my city to get hold of that album when it was released. From the first album, I liked To the Moon and Back, I Want You and Truly Madly Deeply. But Truly Madly Deeply was so overplayed on MTV that eventually I got sick of it. You've actually seen them in concert! That's incredible. These solo careers usually go downhill after sometime, in so many cases. I've never heard of Jennifer Waite or Aneki. I watched the Aneki videos. Pleased To Meet You was the better song but the sound quality of the video is horrible. I could only hear on the left side of my headphones and my ears ached. I like Foolish Games and Hands by Jewel. Our dogs are clever too, but they can be a terrible nuisance with their howling, which is so loud that I worry what the neighbours might think. It always starts with the female dog, Romy and then the male, Snoopy follows suit. I've never heard of a Babble Ball, sounds like a lot of fun for the dogs and you as well.
