Well I've spent the day making sure I'm prepared for the storm , sounds silly , well it feels weird . I went shopping this afternoon and was chatting to complete strangers about the storm. It was like everyone was trying to be prepared . I don't know if one can really be prepared , because its scary stuff living with the coast one side and the lake on the other side .Of course being surrounded by trees is creepy , the wind is picking up pace now and I've been checking the weather radar i live on the coast if you check the radar i live between Swansea and Newcastle . The news update aren't very encouraging kinda creepy stating SEAS OF SEVEN METRES some waves maximum above ten metres .
Oh well i guess i better go double check everything is secure . May God Bless all the volunteer SES workers For emergency help in floods and storms, ring the SES [NSW and ACT] on telephone number 132 500. Update
Yes indeed it is pouring down .The weekend was wet and today well it showered on an off until 3pm and then it came down and hasn't stopped since . This is the coast for you , when it rains it rains .I went in Newie today to RNH and Kathy who is the dental nurse for Dr Liew sent me some of her shots of the B ship . I was gonna take the boys to have a look but the weather was so bad , we headed home. Well it is 1.30 am and puoring down , i'm Gateshead will be flooded by now. With the weather being so nasty ,i'm calling today an inservice day , unless there is a massive improvement then Em and Joe are staying home . Well i think i'll order my groceries online because i don't wanna go shopping in this weather , too many trees are hanging over the roads from the floods . Anyways NSW is in for nasty weather so that means Newcastle and Lake Macquarie .
Well it's been raining for two days and yes it will hinder the flood clean up , but hey at least we have power and well people are certainly out buying furniture .I went out in the bitter cold rainy weather , just to buy a new lounge .Well there wasn't much to choose from either a red one or gold and brown fleck kinda one .So because i wanted a modular and there was only two left i opted for the red .I would prefer white , but I'll wait until my children have moved out then I'll buy white .
Well the rain is pouring down , i love the rain , but i don't like floods . At least if we receive plenty of water , it might just stop all the talk of having to recycle waste water to drinking water ewey gross .
For the past two days my older children have been telling me , mum there is no school on Tuesday . Well i didn't think there would be , considering the damage from the storms is so widespread .
So no school for them , of course Bay is home educated and thought he'd try his luck an asked if he had time out from study because of the floods . Tsk Tsk of course the answer was no , in fact you will be doing your normal time table . As for Em and Joe I'm sure they can study as well .
Well it seems like there are so many stories yet to be told about the wild storms .
I know Nick friend Dan lost all of his belongings and went to stay at his aunts house, as his place was flooded . The following evening he went back to his place to see if anything was worth collecting . When Dan arrived back to his aunts place a tree had fallen on her house . He said his just glad that they had all left together and none of his relatives were hurt .
The New South Wales Government has decided against declaring a state of emergency for the Hunter and Central Coast regions. Well then i guess his not living here is he , right now i'm glad Nick arrived home safe after a ten hour trip . We lost power for twenty hours , due to the storm that people have been saying was like a minor cyclone its absolute chaos everywhere .I didn't go out shopping for groceries yesterday because to many trees falling onto the roads .. Nick's mate Dan has lost all his belongings :( . I went shopping today because i was gonna buy a portable bbq to cook as we'd had no power for twenty hours .I didn't have any luck most shops that are open are running on generators and ppl just going crazy buying torches n batteries .Tress are down everywhere . Its also snowing up further north of " Hunter Region " this is chaos weather , and absolutely freezing .Thank God we now have power again . Also i pray for those whom have lost their lives . If this weather keeps up i guess we might have more power failures.
So im off to charge up everything ,btw the photos are of where i go shopping . Lake Macquarie Fair Mount Hutton NSW.
I didn't want Nick to travel back from Bathurst this morning , i just knew it was gonna be bad , i had that feeling for the past two days.. I just recieved a sms stating stuck ppl have died , i tried calling couldn't get through mobile services are down i managed to hear him when he just called mum its pouring we can't move the car ,, thats it . The rain hasn't stopped pouring down for two days , a part of the road at Gosford collapsed people were washed away , children . God bless these people .. I have try get through to Nick im going crazy not knowing .
Last week seemed just like most weeks had been , always something to deal with for the last three months have been what one could say very trying times.
I decided to check my mailbox and i was so excited to receive a parcel from my very special cyber friend friend Desi :) . It had been a very long time since i had received a gift from anyone especially coming all the way from Malaysia . Desi's book Midnight Voices and other poems to me is worth its weight in gold , actually it is priceless , because it to me it is a link to a special friend i hold dear to my heart. For Desi is a Midnight Voice that has never failed to be there during good times and bad times . Desi for much of the past two years has been my bridge over troubled waters and has guided me home , helping keep the strength .
It is a very special person that can consistantly be there for another person , even when one has his own things in life to deal with , i know that Desi's friendship is in fact a gift God has given me and i shall treasure our friendship forever , for it is a true friendship tied in a knot by angels hands and it will never come undone.
Desi's book Midnight Voices and other Poems is beautiful .People sometimes say that a person has a beautiful soul . I've learnt from my friendship with Desi and by reading his book that Desi himself has a beautiful soul.
Desi if i have forgotten to thank you , for always being there for me .Then i thank you now and may God Bless You Always
Hanging by the moment Lyrics
Desperate for changing. Starving for truth. I'm closer to where i started, chasing after you, i'm falling even more in love with you i'm letting go of all i've held on to i'm standing here until you make me move i'm hanging by a moment here with you.
Forgetting all i'm lacking. Completely incomplete. I'll take your invatation. You take all of me.
Chorus: I'm falling even more in love with you. I'm letting go of all i've held on to. I'm standing here until you make move. I'm hanging by a moment here with you. I'm living for the only thing i know. I'm running and not quite sure where to go. And i don't know what i'm diving into, just hanging by the moment here with you.
There's nothing else to lose. There's nothing else to find. There's nothing else, that can change my mind. There is nothing else. There is nothing else. There is nothing else.
Desperate for changing, Starving for truth. I'm closer to where i started chasing after you.
Chorus again.
I'm hanging by the moment
I'm hanging by the moment
I'm hangingby the moment here with you

Fort Minor Lyrics
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
She said somedays I feel like shit
Somedays I wanna quit and just be normal for a bit
I don't understand why you have to always be gone
I get along but your trips always feel so long
And I find myself trying to stay by the phone
Because your voice always helps me to not feel so alone
But I feel like an idiot, working my day around a call
And when I pick up I don't have much to say, so
I want you to know it's a little f...ed up that
I'm stuck here waiting, at times debating
Telling you that I've had it with you and your career
Me and the rest of the family here singing
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever that you've been gone
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever that you've been gone
Please
Come back home
You know, the place where you used to live
Used to barbeque with burgers and ribs
Used to have a little party every halloween
with candy by the pile but now
you only stop by every once in a while
Shit
I find myself just filling my time
With anything to keep the thought of you from my mind
I'm doing fine and I plan to keep it that way
You can call me if you find that you have something to say
And I'll tell you
I want you to know it's a little f****ed up that
I'm stuck here waiting, at times debating
Telling you that I've had it with you and your career
Me and the rest of the family here singing
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Please Come back home
I want you to know it's a little f*&*ed up that
I'm stuck here waiting, no longer debating
Tired of sitting and hating and making these excuses
For why you're not around, and feeling sorta useless
It seems that one thing has been true all along
You don't really know what you've got till its gone
I guess I've had it with you and your career
When you come back I won't be here and you can say
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever that you've been gone
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Please Come back home
Please Come back home
Please Come back home
Please Come back home
Please Come back home
.....................................................................................................................................
I so love this song , although it's kinda sad.
I just had to put it on here :)
How can you deny me, Something that is so true? Our friendship is worth the world to me, But my dream is to be close to you. We support each other endlessly, Giving hope through thick and thin. But my heart bleeds constantly to be near to you, Whispering the word, When? I gave you a path to my heart, And on it you certainly found your way. Now lying in my spirit, I dream of us everyday. And it’s the mystery that lies within you, Your soul I wish to be near. But as for now I will continue loving you, Quietly remaining here...
Enrique Lyrics
Somebody's Me
You, do you remember me?,
Like, I remember you?
Do you spend your life, going back in your mind to that time?,
Cause I, I walk the streets alone,
I hate being on my own, and everyone can see that,
I really fell, and I'm going through hell.
Thinking about you with somebody else.
Somebody wants you,
Somebody needs you.
Somebody dreams about you every single night.
Somebody cant breathe, without you its lonely.
Somebody hopes that one day you will see, that somebody's me.
That somebody's me. yeaa...
How, how did we go wrong?
It was so good, and now its gone,
And i pray at night, that our path's soon will cross.
What we had, isn't lost.
Cause you are always right here in my thoughts..
Somebody wants you,
Somebody needs you.
Somebody dreams about you every single night.
Somebody cant breathe, without you its lonely.
Somebody hopes that one day you will see, that somebody's me.
That somebody's me. Oh yeah...
You will always be in my life, even if im not in your life.
Cause you're in my memory...
You, when you remember me?...
And before you set me free, oh listen please...
Somebody wants you,
Somebody needs you.
Somebody dreams about you every single night.
Somebody cant breathe, without you its lonely.
Somebody hopes that one day you will see, that somebody's me.
That somebody's me.
Somebody's me...
Somebody's me...
Oh yeah...
FAR AWAY
Nickelback - Far Away - Lyrics
This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know,
you know, you know
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore
On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,
you know, you know
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore
So far away
(So far away)
Been far away for far too long
So far away
(So far away)
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know
I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you any more
Believe it
Hold on to me and never let me go
Keep breathing, 'cause i'm not leaving you any more
Believe it
Hold on to me and never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and never let me go
