The sadness of those who hang onto to nothing
Roses placed on my pillow
Realising it's been a year since you went away....
Losing yet another loved one.....
Goodbyes at the airport.....
*** The sound of the rain on the skylights ***
*** When he laughs at my jokes ***
*** Walking hand in hand and stealing kisses ***
*** The feeling I get when I've done a great work out ***
*** Seeing the pounds drop away ***
*** Stealing secret moments together ***
*** Knowing the truth and patiently waiting for it to be revealed ***
*** Anniversaries***
*** Holding hands and smiles across the table ***
*** Going home ***
*** Getting upgraded to Business Class on long haul flights ***
*** Smiles & kissess ***
*** Planning reunions ***
*** Unexpected and welcoming phone calls ***
*** web cam kisses from Rosie ***
*** Seeing & being with people who mean a lot to me ****
**** Being told "I love you" ****
**** Hearing voices I love ***
**** Spending time with loved ones after a period of absence ****
**** Being told " I miss you" *******

This is not a day to dillydally. You have a strong sense of what you want, so stop wasting time. If you act on your feelings sooner rather than later, you will attain your goal more quickly -- that makes sense, right? Your hesitancy might be based on some concerns about another person's feelings, but you needn't worry. The people in your life are standing beside you, ready to cheer you on. So move forward today and start making things happen.

You know who you are. You're the monkey I'm refering to!
2 year, 3 months and 5 days after my first dive, I've finally reached my 100th dive.
I can remember almost giving up during the pool session and vowing never to do it again. Now, I can't wait to get into the water.
Even if it means a 90 minute drive to the dive site, lugging a 26lb tank and 22lb in weights, a bumpy ride through the Heads, a bit of a swell getting back onto the boat, lugging all the gear back to the dive club, changing, packing the car, another 90 min drive then wash up...

Only 17 more hours before I head off to Kangaoo Island for a week's diving with my dive club.
The car is packed with 10 tanks, two sets of diving gear, 2 holdalls and an esky full of junk food for the 11 hours journey. There are 14 of us heading to Snellings Beach staying at a beach house.
For those unfamiliar with the geography of Kangaroo Island (a.k.a KI) is considered the third largest island in Australia. This paradise, blessed with crystal-clear waters and pristine beaches, is ...

It's taken me a long time to summon up the courage to take action. But, I've finally done it. And it feels so good.
The monkey if finally off my back!!
It has been a complex journey over the past few years and there were many times I just wanted to throw the towel in. But, despite numerous setbacks, heartache and frustration, I have taken the action I should have taken years ago. Getting this monkey off my back means I can move forward with my life without being dragged into other p...

I get an enormous buzz when ever I see these hot air ballons glide over my place on still mornings.

The journey is nearly over and at last I will have closure on a chapter of my life that has been a thorn in my side for the last 5 years...14 April - Almost there, not long before I'm proved to have told the truth and justice will be on my side
about me
Melbourne is now home for me, but from next year looks like I could be commuting on a regular basis across the big pond from July :-)
I love SF as it is so similar to Melbourne so hopefully I can get the best of both worlds and get the contract. And like Melbourne it's a great place for me to do my diving, motorbike riding, skiing, visiting wineries & flying.
Hopefully I'll get to meet up with some of you next year (make that later this year)
