What has made you smile today 2025

So sorry to hear about your divorce and then having to sell your beautiful house that you put so much hard work into but maybe a fresh start on a clean slate is for the best. I wish you all the best for the future mate.

It’s for the 12 foot Christmas tree of course that will take up residence every December :joy:

Edit: on closer inspection I realised that you were on about the barn not the house :roll_eyes:

So I could fit a car hoist in it to work on my ‘67 mustang (which I also had to sell :smiling_face_with_tear: ).

If the Au government were not such assholes and I was still running a vape business, I may have been able to keep the house, but I guess that was not to be.

Divorce is expensive, but it is worth every cent :rofl:

My buddy Murray is doing what he does best, helping out after the Bali floods. They got 2 metres (78”) of rain in a 24hr period.

If you are feeling generous, please feel free to donate a few dollars to Bali Donate. A little goes a long way (about $20 aud will feed someone for nearly a month).

@whthek I don’t have one, and haven’t fully vetted it, and you never know if it could be a honeypot or not, but it looks interesting like you said.

I’m wondering how they vett(spelling?) their app store offering’s. Being a creature of habit, I’d have to feel pretty comfortable with, let’s say, a texting app, before “throwing my hat over the fence”. I’m going to follow this brand, as the phone itself seem’s to be of high quality.

As usual, I need only me to make me smile.

Traveling home from our granddaughters wedding and stopped at a hotel.

Young lady at the front desk, had an obvious affliction, the nature of which I knew not. She looked like she’d had a stroke. One side of her face drooped, and an arm didn’t seem to cooperate well.

I asked her what her super power was. She claimed she didn’t have one.

I told her I doubted that. I said, it appears you have some affliction you’ve been battling, and it appears to me, you’re winning. Looks like your head is held high, you obviously take pride in your work, you seem to genuinely enjoy your job and life… Is that not super? Ask me, that’s powerful.

I think your super power is your inspiration to others.

And I was happy to get a hug and a few tears on my shoulder.

She then told me she’s been battling brain cancer for 30 years and had had 12 operations. She said every time she woke up, she considers it a blessing.

I told her I felt the same every time I woke up and there were no fires around me. She laughed, we laughed, I told her a couple short jokes… And felt good!
