    Default Things that make HAPPY ''''''

    Well since scoob is banging on about me making a thread of sadness and the fact it had nearly 20k views , thought maybe we do need a happy thread ??????
    well mine is ..its autum now , the grass had slowed and can get all the work done by lunch time for my daily target so i can either work more for more bucks or (this is the best option mind you) playing with my grandson..he is nearly crawling now so its lock down at the Geoffs house making sure its child proof....even trained the dog to run for its life when bubby grabs his fur...
    yeah Autum is sweet , dont you love it when that 40 min lawn takes 10 to 15 without much grass and no sweat////// sweet autum

    I had a great weekend over Easter at creswick and now with things becoming a little more relaxed am already planning a weekend away in about a months time. Without the kids. I work most Saturdays so it will be great to start getting my weekends back.

    no sweat? lol you definately dont work in Townsville! Ive had a few things that have made me very happy in the last couple of days, Did 5 quotes yesterday, all fortnightly right through the dry and got all of them! Including one house then next door then she rang her friend across the road and got her to! 3 jobs within 15 metres of each other! Also today checked my bank and have got my first big invoice paid so that made me do a little happy dance! Still very early days but its looking like this actually might go to plan!

    Not lawn mowing related but it has made me immensely happy and more than a little chuffed that my 10 year old daughter just watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail for the first time and roared with laughter the entire way through. Thus passing the mantle on to the next generation

    My beautiful wife.

    My family and friends.

    And snapper season.

    Oh and warm weather.

    Oh and good scotch or a good beer for that matter.

    Bacon and egg toasted sandwiches with tomato sauce.

    Going out to dinner with the family to celebrate my youngest daughter's 18th tonight.
    I offered to buy my daughter a alcoholic drink and she said, no thanks a coke will do.
    Cheers Garry

    Yeah real good at the minute lol.

    I had to endure Richmond v Brisbane at the MCG with all my Tiger mates who insisted we sit right in the Richmond cheer squad those buggars are feral. Funny bast*rds that cheer squad i started cracking up when they started singing when the lion sleeps tonight halfway through the last quarter.



    Hey Joanne congrats to Timmy for me on the win.

    Its funny even with 2 minutes to go and being 20 odd points up my mates still weren't confident the tigers would win.

    I'm suprised you didn't hear him "roar" from there. Yes, my husband is one of those Richmond ferals and sadly he has taken one of our daughters to the dark side.

    They can't help being skeptical....it just comes from past experience
