Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

So I spoke to my dad for the first time in, gees months! He wants to switch me as his ICE for my older, even deafer sister! Or maybe the younger one, yeah that will end well, she hates his guts, she will tell emergency services 'do not resuscitate', or maybe just 'shoot him'. Apparently he has been recommended for nursing home care. It's too hard at home now. He says he's on a waiting list. I said they have some good activities and trips. 'I don't want trips I just want to be left alone' ok. Have you thought of a move then? Warrnambool is a long way for all of us. He says I can't stand the air in Melbourne. Hmm, ok. How about Geelong? Nup I hate damn Geelong. He says is there anything up near your sisters place ? (They live on a farm together 1.5 hours from me), me: I'm sure I can find you something there! Oh bless my evil little heart! I'll have to go help empty his tip to the actual tip, but I could do that! I can't wait to share the news with my sisters! I'd really love to see their faces! Cheers!

How does it take you 1.5 hours to get to Romsey though? You have a pedal car?

they are actually 10min past lancefield and I'm the opposite side of town from you! Hubby does it a bit quicker unless I'm in the car yelling 'damn slow down'

She's had a couple of songs I haven't minded over time but her latest is crap and if that's what passes as music these days I'm glad I stopped purchasing it many many moons ago.

Personally that isn't even a song it's just a bunch of spoken sentences fitted together with a sound track.

So my dad just rung me, he's really crook with flu, and now apparently he needs a wheel chair, can't even ride his scooter. He realises he needs to move to full care. So I said I'd talk to my sisters again. He says "they have a granny flat I can move in there!" Hmmm well I think it's a ripper idea! So I shot them both a warning message, turns out big sis still hadn't told little sis about the last call yet. Little sis rings me and my ears are actually hurting! And I thought I was a drama queen! She ramble for a good 15 min. Then rings back 1/2 hour later with her cop game face on! No worries mate what ever you want to do, go for it, as long as it ain't me! She's going to ring him tomorrow, oh man, watch our for midway fireworks!cheers
