Yup, ain't it the truth? Even the ones you'd rather forget about!

Many moons ago when I was a molly mo, I was explaining the eternal families thing to a friend and her mother. Her mother was what we call 'a hard case' in Australia, a person who calls a spade a bloody shovel, and don't bother her with any other nonsense!!

Her response to my lovely ideaology of eternal life with our families, was "$%#$@*, I don't want that, that would mean I'd have to put up with Uncle Harold all the time. @#@%%^ that for a joke, I can't stand him NOW, let alone THEN!" After I got over the shock of her resisting my wonderful missionary effort, I laughed and laughed at her, as I always did, she was hilarious. She certainly put a lot of things into perspective including eternal families!

Sometimes, the more blunt someone is (and the less they care about what other people think), the more correct they are.

I can just imagine your melodious australian accent when I read your post. I swear if an aussie girl talked sweet nothings to me I'd be hooked just from her accent...

Aye. And how.

Have become quite hopelessly taken by me GPS ever since "Karen" has been speaking...

(But she occasionally directs me to take "Western Australia 16" instead of "Washington 16") :)

exactly fluhist. I'd rather be together forever with friends than family.

I realized a long time ago that I was born into a family of people I wouldn't choose to be around. Once I started choosing who I wanted to be around, the large family became very small.

Every family has one. There are two in mine.

Thankyou bvd, of all the things I consider to be sexy about me (of course there are hundreds heh heh!!), my accent isn't one of them, so I will happily add it! Watch out boys, Fluey and her accent are on the prowl!!

You and your family have a wonderful Christmas bvd, you made mine!!
