Day 3

Tornado Thunderstorms

Well, talk about an anti-climax! We didn't get the cyclone, bit of rain last night but definately no winds - thank god! 11 sleeps till I go home. Once you get past the halfway point...it is a down hill run. The time seems to go quicker. My halfway point is Sunday - 3 sleeps away. I had a terrific sleep last night. Spoke with Ben on the phone (sorry Ben I think I woke you) and read a little bit of my book (Dan Brown: Angels & Demons) got a few pages in then couldnt keep my eyes open. I woke up at 4am...snoozed til 4:30am then I was up ready to battle another lonely day away from home. My boss doesnt fly in until next Wednesday (weather permitting) so I can just work away at my own leasure until he arrives. Getting a fair bit done which is good.

I spoke with Ben yesterday and he said that Riley is flat out walking now - you cant keep him down. That to me is a little bit sad. Yes, I saw him tottering around when I was home for a month, but it kind of haunts me that I could be at home watching all of this unfold. CHOICES.

I must take some photos of the camp etc on my camera phone to post - yes, will do that this afternoon.

Every night when I get home to my little 'adco hut' (room) I think-think-think about life really. What do I want to be? What do I want to do? What am I doing here? Who am I? You know, the usual shit that runs through your head when you are bored, lonely, tired, alone. I still havent figured it out yet - will let you know though.

I saw this yesterday and it cracked me up! I laughed to myself more times yesterday, than I could imagine. Laughter is definately the best medicine. I feel so relaxed - thanks Jen. There was heaps of these smilies that farted - and nothing beats a good fart! I dont know anyone that would not laugh at a big, loud, squeeky fart!

Hold On! (Fart Noise) Now, What Were You Saying?

Better go do some work. I will leave you with some good smilies.

That will do - I hope they work - I love smilies!

You know I LOVE the thought of actually having time for myself to reflect on what and who i've become and where i'm heading.

I know it must be hard being away from your boys, but it's not forever and it's good to hear you're making it a positive for YOU!
