I'm back.

Hi bloggers...I'm back.

Yes I've had a spell, I've been flirting with facebook and I've had an affair with e-bay, but now I'm back to reliable faithful blogspot.

Life's been its usual crazy busy self. And I suspect every person in the busy western world would say the same thing. Wouldn't it just be nice not to have to rely on so much in order to survive. My husband often says that when he worked in west africa he enjoyed his time with the locals. They had nothing but were incredibly happy and so much more relaxed. They didn't have to worry about electric bills...they had no electricity. They didn't worry about material items, insurance, or having the pressures of educational success to live. Sometimes I feel we rate success incorrectly. Success shouldn't be rated against someone else, but how contented and relaxed we are. Western society, in my view, is so stressed out... over simple living condtions...its ridiculous.

And even though I'm sitting here typing on modern technology... really its expensive, isolating and not necessary.

I think I should have been born in the forties. Because I would have enjoyed the world not being such a small place. I like the anon feeling of Australia. I don't want to be out their competing for a standing in the world. This is such a great country. I'm guilty of not wanting to share it with anyone.

Anyway...enough of this deep and meaningful rambling. i'm going to bed...after a gin and tonic.
Don't forget only 9 days til Christmas
