Shocker ??..Don't be, I'm also Aussie from the bush not city.
Well, I FEEL GREAT...I AM honest.
I don't wear knickers of no kind or brads for the last 24 years
since I moved to the country from the big smoke of Sydney.
I'm telling lies ..Only when I put the work uniform on,
and that's cotton shorts ( Boxers type ) cheap stuff from China.

Out West Riverina, in N.S.W it can get hot even very hot at times.
Most of the people in town I know, don't seem to bother at all.
In fact, most of the men I know don't wear knickers either.
Truth is, many women's in our town don't wear knickers also

Now, HEY YOU CRITICS waiting to jump in and cutthroats!.
He he he..Don't you jump to funny conclusion/s okay?.
NONE OF US IS QUEER & WEIRD WE ARE ALL FAIRLY NORMAL and/or STRAIGHT

SURE nothing is perfect neither can always be.

But when to IMPERFECT PEOPLE refuses to give up on each other's Dreams, Visions, Plans & Projects, so on and on,

I just got my birthday present yesterday,
only a week earlier from my ex's boyfriend
He got his last month on time

Anyway, I tried to remarry my ex 23 years ago
She said she's NOT SURE because she was suspicious
I was only after getting my money back.

SAD STORY

She was right

********************************************

Oh HELL YES....NO DOUBT.

But first, one must learn to WALK ON HOT ROCKS.??
That's easy with a bit of coaching and training

After that, all fall in place, all test/s passed,
and the winner is??

YOU... It's like milking from 2 cows

Disclaimer!!..MILKING ..That's EXACTLY what I meant.
That can be translated as FINANCIAL HELP IN TIMES OF NEED?

My pleasure chris.. .

It just feels good to remind some folks who still believe in good deeds & endings, while yet still living in Trust, Hope, 2 Way Compromise, Flexibility, Respect, Understanding, Determination & Will, so on and on, that there is still a way to reach the destination/s our days, despite the world being screwed so so much.

My pleasure

LOL writer..Something not new about old age, I THINK I CAN MAKE IT THERE
Don't know how or when or if, but I will sure try

What happens to the old sayings!..
" You are as old as the woman standing next to you?? "

--Anyway, remember that Abraham had Isaak at the age 100
and Sarah was only 92

--Also, Moses was 120
Moses then went up Mount Nebo to the top of Pisgah,
looked over the promised land of Israel spread out before him,
and died, at the age of one hundred and twenty.

Now that's where it gets interesting

--More frustrating to me is how on earth Methuselah was 969
years when he died. Methuselah died in 1656 AM,
the year of the Flood at the age of 969.

That's bloody INCREDIBLE.

What Y'all Think??

I saw a Tweet this morning [asking people to describe their happy marriage] and had to write in.
I have been married for over 17 years now - 20 years together - and have never been happier! My wife and I thank each other every day for the hard work and effort we put into our marriage. It's not easy in this day and age, especially with 2 teenagers.

We met early in life, 24 years old, but late enough to have sown our wild oats so to speak. We were both poor, making minimum wage and only high school diplomas on the wall. We fell in love and wanted to work towards a family. We saved, lived in basements, worked a ton, went to business school at night (we both sought employers who paid for courses if we passed) and after 5 years had enough to buy a condo and get married. (Our wedding cost $3,000 including the honeymoon! - haha).

It's been the best 20 years a guy could ask for! I think because we started with nothing, what we have achieved, we have achieved together and it makes it so hard to throw away. You could say we're dedicated to each other through sweat and hard work.

My wife and I attribute our successes to having defined roles for each other - I'm big picture and she's the details person. We've both agreed on our role in the marriage and we base our opinion of each other on how much effort we exert. But, we're flexible too and can take on each's others roles in an instant - we call it "cross-training". We trust each other a lot in this part of our lives. It's always worked for us - because we've always worked for the marriage. I must say at this point in my dialogue; it is a ton of work - more than I could ever have imagined. After the kids arrived, the amount of cleaning alone is enough to make you cry - haha!

The Future:
We've always had a 6 m, 1 yr, 2 yr and 5 yr plan. It's invaluable to know what you're working towards and being on the same page.

Personal Growth:
We're like 2 plants in the same pot. Growing separately but alongside each other. Because we're on the same page as far as life goals we can branch out into new endeavors and try new things. At the same time, we stay grounded with family traditions.

Conflict Resolution:
If we argue - and we do once in a while - we apologize as soon as we've cooled down. Whether we were right or wrong. Nothing is worth destroying your marriage over. This is a 2-way street as well though - neither of us are vengeful or spiteful and we would never do anything to purposely make the other angry. I've seen this happen to other people, unfortunately.

These are just a few of the aspects that have made us successful. We make an effort every day with each other - why throw away 20 years of hard work cause you're feeling lazy for a day or two?!

We try to be understanding, compassionate, loving, forgiving, accepting, strong and smart. So many people out there don't think ahead or plan in my humble opinion.

Lastly, I would just like to say to anyone you may share this with. STOP BEING SO SELFISH! Selfishness is the reason the world is going to ****. Give, give, give. Give your attention, your assistance, your humor, your sensitivity, your heart and soul to the people around you. Anything you can give that's free has the most value. Give with no strings attached and give often. You'll be amazed how happy you'll become and how happy the people around will become, how easy it is to forgive and to be forgiven. Charity and forgiveness are key to happy and successful marriage.

As a former reprobate whose only concerns was himself, I can attest to the fact that the less you think of yourself and give to those around you the more you will get back and the happier your marriage and life will be.

Disclaimer::...Providing we both live that long to.

SURE matter ..Let's be Realistic here.

- Scenario 1
Just imagine my partner who is 15 or even 10 years younger than me, ( An Old Fart ), pushing my wheelchair everywhere, instead of going with her friends and neighbors to the Bingo 3 days a week and meat/toys raffle 3 days a week??
Who is going to miss all the morning and late night shows on Tv ??..Her again...See what I mean ??..Instead, she will need to take care of an old body bag vegetable like me, finally, she will dump me into the retirement village or nursing home anyway

- Scenario 2
How about you pushing 15 or even 10 years older than you granny's wheelchair everywhere around instead having a quiet night with the old boys at the club or pub or a game of strip poker with the old girls at the retirement village??..Well, if you have no choice, then, strip poker with the girls from the Nursing home

C'mon folks

I, YOU, WE, all know why and who did it

The IRONY OF ALL is, that the Russians will
get the Blame for everything again.

One moment please

Could not help myself

- I'd like to thank the girl with no sports bra who ran with me through the last few miles of yesterday's marathon. Your lack of support got me through.

- The other day, I saw the headline: 'Woman beats off rapist' and I thought... "That seems like a reasonable compromise."

^^^^^
I see now Joe, you have an obsession
