MERRY FREAKIN CHRISTMAS!!

well christmas is nearly upon us all again, i feel a bit freaked out as i am not really organised for anything yet, we are planning to go away after christmas on a holiday to see micks mum then hopefully onto sceales for a fishing trip but nothing seems certain at th moment.
it would be nice to get away out of th city for a bit, im feeling a little trapped and claustrophobic.
mick picked up a new car yesterday, a vp wagon. its a good car, seems fine mechanically, dual fuel, plenty of room, a sexy dark blue colour :) hes happy and im glad hes got something reliable to get to work in. and it will help getting all our crap into it for when we (hopefully) go away.
its quite hot today, 39c i guess summer has hit. we had a bit of a heat wave in late november but its been sorta liveable since then. last week we were looking at aivaries at a bird place and we noticed these rustic ladders for parrots and budgies that were made out of tree branches and screws. they looked pretty cool but were rather expensive. on th weekend mick trimmed th fruit trees out th back and we started making a large version for th chookens thinking it would be a piece of cake. then i had th dumb ass idea of "if we chiseled one side of each piece of wood they might sit together better." dumb idea, all it did was make it alot more hard work. but it does look good. got one rung to finish and then in with th chickens it goes!

for you dad

"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares...
we have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
and Grace will lead us home.

The Lord has promised good to me...
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be...
as long as life endures.

When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.

"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.
