I have been thinking about quitting for awhile and now its time things come to an end and I move on .. Here are my reasions ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1, A few people I like have recently quit blogging and some of my fun has gone in blogging .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2, I really dont have the time with my health going to shit of recent mths buisness being demanding and My new man taking up alot of my time .. I just dont have the time to put into this thing that I once did,,,, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3, Someone tracked me down and just sent me a letter to my home .. It was not welcome and seems even though I have tried not to reveal to much about me on here I have given out too much info over the years and sickos will be sickos .. So um thanks for that one ... you know who you are .... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4, I believe no one will really care that I am closing this blog anyway .. those who know me well will still know how to find me .. those who dont know me well .. sorry but such is life ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5, I believe its time for me to start living more in the real world and less in the internet world .. I am opening a face book page all the same under my real name .. what is my real name again ... ha ha ha &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. I apoligise to anyone who this effects I will leave it up for a week then delete the blog ... so feel free to coment .. I do love you all &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so there it is ..

I will have the bike back on the road soon .. I am going to fix it myself its easy enough just a new mirror and flasher not much .. about $150 for no original parts that will do the job .. I think it was a good wake up call for me as I was starting to not give the bike the respect it deserves I will try to ride slower and more aware of the others on the road when I start riding again well thats what I hope anyway ... The guys say I was lucky not to be traveling much faster as I could have lost some real skin .. In the last few weeks near my place the newspapers have reported one guy who lost part of his arm and another guy who broke both his legs on seperate bike accidents enought make even me think .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Monkey fucker of a boy is doing great things for me he even gave me a facial last night and really looked after me .. He is how do you say adventurous in the bed room so I love that and really knows how to make love .. Guess I got lucky on that one and dont have to train him up .. ha ha .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to everyone for the emails to cheer me up .. and I do feel much better about things today .. will just wait and see how the next few weeks pan out ... I still have some issues to work through health wise I hope they can do something .. off to see a special doctor next week so perhaps he knows something the others dont .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love and light &lt;br /&gt;Sarah&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-1311478314491322672?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/1311478314491322672/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=1311478314491322672&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/1311478314491322672'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/1311478314491322672'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/10/bit-of-color.html' title='a bit of color'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-1661470118679803576</id><published>2007-10-04T17:13:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-10-04T17:24:34.662+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Well It was always going to hapan !!!</title><content type='html'>OK just a short post to keep you all up to date with my goings on ..

So I went on my little Friday night date.. as I told you before .. We then went on a second Date last night well from 3 pm till 11pm lol ... Guess I am a sucker for the long dates well we just got talking and lost track of time then went for some Thai food and then got talking and ummm well some not talking (giggles) ... ok so want to know more &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really like this guy he seems so nice so honest so cute and well alot of things... we talked for ever about some really big things like where we want to head in the next few years our hopes and our fears .. It was intence .. I feel like I have known this guy for a long time .. so nice ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just got off the phone to him again .. and all is good he is feeling a little sick not cause of me .. well only that I kept him up late and out in the cold but who was complaining ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So that leaves me feeling like a teenage school girl again ... yes I am a little goo goo over him and he of me .. I like to think that this one could last and actually make something out of it .. you guys who have been reading my posts for along time will know I have been up in the air over a few guys in the last few years so I am catching my breath and trying not to get my hopes up too much .. but its hard not to .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are going to hang out next weekend and spend some time doing couple things so will just wait and see .. cross your fingers for me ..

It looked less shady than the others and seemed genuinene ..... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got some help to write a profile for me that seemed to say too many nice things about me (hope I dont sound like I love myself tooo much) and filled out all the other questions It was kinda like ordering Takeaway in parts .. anyway .. I even added some nice photos and all ... made it look really nice .. well I think and hope ..... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway in the first hour I got messages from over 10 guys ... OMGOSH!!!!! Perhaps thats where all the guys are hiding these days ... anyway its all a bit overwellming to me .. I mean really ... GOSH !!! anyway ... I read and re read a bunch of profiles and yesterday I endded up chatting to one guy who actually seems quite nice ... I have another 4 I am emailing back and forth .. is that like cheating or something .. Lets just call them plan B, C , D and E for now lol ... on top of that I have more people trying to get intouch so I have had to get a bit picky and unless they really stand out I just say thanks I am flatterd. But I do try to get back to everyone who leaves a message I feel its rude not to .. execpt the one guy from NIGERRA who was looking for his 4th wife .. I didnt give him the time of day .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyway to cut a long story short it sure has kept me busy and I am going out on a real date this Friday night with a sweet talking sweet looking younger man .. I dont normal go for younger ones but well worth a chat over Tea if nothing else I guess .. hopefully it will work well and I wont get bashed raped or murdered .. well thats the plan anyway ... wish me luck ... &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RuTNiVTVgqI/AAAAAAAAAIc/yAJl-zmrpaQ/s1600-h/suc-internet-dating.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RuTNiVTVgqI/AAAAAAAAAIc/yAJl-zmrpaQ/s320/suc-internet-dating.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5108433867062477474" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OH and before you guys ask I am not telling you where it is cause ..

The current members are: Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, China, Chinese Taipei, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Philippines, Russia, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, USA, Vietnam. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How important is it? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the world stage, it is of limited importance.  The G8 summit and the World Economic Forum attract some serious firepower, not just from among heads of government of the richest nations on Earth but also from the bankers and business barons who pull the purse strings. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, it is fairly rare for so many world leaders to be in the same place at the same time – so when they are, what they talk about and what they sign up to can be very important.  It is even more rare for Australia to be a part of this type of summit, arguably making it more important for us than for others involved (George W. Bush is leaving early, for instance). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What will they be talking about? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the 2001 summit in Shanghai, which took place in the summit of the September 11 attacks in the US, international security and the fight against terrorism has had an increasingly prominent place at the talks.  While the summit is technically supposed to be focused on economic issues, it is argued that terrorism has such an impact on a country’s economy that it should be discussed at APEC. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trade issues such as free trade and/or lowering tariffs between APEC members will also be on the agenda.  The Prime Minister also wants the 21 world leaders to discuss setting up a regional carbon trading scheme as part of the fight against global warming.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why are people so angry about it? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The original driving force behind the opposition to APEC was the anti-globalisation movement, which believes that groups such as APEC and the trade deals they promote merely make rich countries richer and poor countries poorer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But since it is fairly rare for so many world leaders to be together at once, it provides a platform for protest groups of all types to target the meeting as their chance to get their message across while the spotlight is on. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what do the protesters want? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RtlZPFTVgoI/AAAAAAAAAIM/e1w1G9rnRRY/s1600-h/1284968461_f090f91fa9.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RtlZPFTVgoI/AAAAAAAAAIM/e1w1G9rnRRY/s400/1284968461_f090f91fa9.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5105209768257356418" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It varies.  The anti-APEC protests are anti-globalisation, anti-war, anti-WorkChoices, anti-global warming and anti-poverty, to name just a few rallying points.  The wide range of leaders coming to town also means there could be single-issue protesters – for instance someone opposed to China’s human rights record or Russia’s war in Chechnya. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the protesters are united in their opposition to the high profile names attending, but what they actually want instead can differ. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a boring little post this one is ... oh well I have to stand on my soap box sometimes ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take care people &lt;br /&gt;love and light &lt;br /&gt;Sarah ...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-6867130531755681381?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/6867130531755681381/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=6867130531755681381&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/6867130531755681381'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/6867130531755681381'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/09/hey-saz-what-are-you-doing-next-week.html' title='Hey Saz what are you doing next week ????'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RtlZO1TVgnI/AAAAAAAAAIE/djtQsAuWK70/s72-c/1292220607_7ed94b911d.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-1086851627713494859</id><published>2007-08-26T23:07:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-08-26T23:33:26.326+10:00</updated><title type='text'>So life goes on ... well in some form or another lol</title><content type='html'>Anyway just got back from a totally sick performance (is that what the kids say) at the tea shop we had a guy play some great blues rootsy funky folky stuff he was fantastic he has actually kicked off what should become our spring series of having a music act one the last sunday of the mth its a way to say thanks to all the people who come to the shop a way to say welcome to some new faces and most of all its a way to pull some more money out of there pockets lol how captalistic of me narr we so dont even charge ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway I have had a few ups and downs this week but most of all I have been up except for some late lonly nights and bad dreams .. well you get that sometimes &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been trying to add some writting lattley that is not all shit about what I do and where I have been and from time to time I will just post it at the bottom of a post I found this clip on You tube and its kinda my fave at he moment I am working on getting some of the moves down before I ask to be on part 2 lol no really well maybe not ... watch it if you have time &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vJnKZPdnWLg"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vJnKZPdnWLg" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I fixed the speedo on my bike on Saturday .. they were going to charge me 500 for a new one so little miss fixit had a go totally thinking I would turn out to be little miss fuckit .... but no some spray oil and a wiggle here and there and wola all good .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway try to guess where this I took this photo its along way from my place but so nice I am going back really soon and the riders around that area are soo nice flashing there lights and telling me where the cops were hiding cause I was only going like 100kph over the speed lmit lol &lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RtGA61TVgkI/AAAAAAAAAHs/HIXvtnWn694/s1600-h/DSC00157.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

About a year back I started visiting Lloyd. He was the original grumpy old man and I would come and share some time with him sometimes just talking about what he was up to sometimes playing cards or sharing a cup of tea most of the time I would just listen to him talk about all kinds of stuff.. He always has alot to say about any topic from politics to life and was not shy in just saying it as it is .. (or at least how he sees things) Sometimes I didnt want to spend time with him Like I said he could be a grumpy old prick !!!! but I would tell him so and he would laugh and agree for the most part!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We played cards one day and he got so pissed off when I beat him he called me a cheat and threw the cards in the air I told him to go fuck himself to which he laughed and we both ended up laughing at the fact I used the F word and how un becoming of a lady it was .. gee I guess he got to know me too ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway early this week I got the news that Lloyd had passed away it. He died in hes sleep and without any pain so I guess that was a nice enough way to end his life .. They had a funeral for him today and It was nice to meet some of his friends (he didnt have many) some of his famialy and even a few guys that served in Veitnam with him (gee they came along way) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess deep down I knew this would happan some day but it hit me like a brick I could go on and talk about Lloyd for ages but I wont (I just dont feel like it) And He would not want me too anyway so I will only say Your God bless and keep you Lloyd you showed me many things taught me many lessions and I am truly better to have known you ... Thank you for everything ... LOVE AND LIGHT FOREVER (even if you couldnt understand why I said that lol ) Hugz SARAH &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i felt heavy today.&lt;br /&gt;the alarm woke me up on the floor&lt;br /&gt;telling me to get ready for your visitation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i didn't know what to wear,&lt;br /&gt;so i wore what i always wear&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;mike came and picked me up&lt;br /&gt; carried us to the funeral home.&lt;br /&gt;everything felt heavy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went inside and saw many people crying.&lt;br /&gt;I hugged all of the familiar faces&lt;br /&gt;which I had not seen before.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;many people were crying.&lt;br /&gt;but i wasn't crying.&lt;br /&gt;my emotions didn't want to show themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i went into the chapel where many people were gathering.&lt;br /&gt;i couldn't think when i saw your casket&lt;br /&gt;from the back of the room.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so i sat for a short while.&lt;br /&gt;then i went to the altar&lt;br /&gt;and hugged your sister.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after i hugged your brother&lt;br /&gt;i looked down at you in your casket.&lt;br /&gt;you didn't look the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i wasn't crying like everyone else.&lt;br /&gt;i couldn't figure out why,&lt;br /&gt;for i had loved you too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;finally the man said it was time for the service to start.&lt;br /&gt;so i sat again,&lt;br /&gt;this time in the front pew.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i could see you perfectly.&lt;br /&gt;you didn't look the same.&lt;br /&gt;but i still wasn't crying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the man told us about you.&lt;br /&gt;he summed up your life in less than one hour,&lt;br /&gt;but you were so much more than that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after the service ended&lt;br /&gt;i went to your casket again.&lt;br /&gt;you were peaceful, but not the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;suddenly things were blurry&lt;br /&gt;and hot water was pouring&lt;br /&gt;out of my eyes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i pulled away and looked up at mike&lt;br /&gt;and saw the tears in his eyes;&lt;br /&gt;the first i had seen him cry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i hugged others.&lt;br /&gt;i felt heavy.&lt;br /&gt;i was not myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as i was leaving&lt;br /&gt;i stopped to hug jacob&lt;br /&gt;and said i would see him monday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;everything was blurry by that time.&lt;br /&gt;everything felt heavy&lt;br /&gt;and i couldn't move.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;on the drive home&lt;br /&gt;the sky flashed with lightning&lt;br /&gt;again and again&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the clouds glowed with the same blue&lt;br /&gt;that used to light your eyes,&lt;br /&gt;the same eyes that lit the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;those eyes that i'll never see again&lt;br /&gt;for as long as i live&lt;br /&gt;alive only in my memory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i will see you again one day.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-284740585486436800?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/284740585486436800/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=284740585486436800&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/284740585486436800'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/284740585486436800'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/08/for-lloyd.html' title='For Lloyd'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RsQJbFTVgjI/AAAAAAAAAHk/1kcPV68jIEQ/s72-c/Lloyd+on+a+good+day.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-927445636215603795</id><published>2007-08-08T14:51:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-08-08T15:24:21.084+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Is that spring I can smell ???</title><content type='html'>Well kids spring is awhile off yet but had some great weather the last few days and well I like to get my hopes up dont I ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what can I tell you ...

I got bored of conversation a while ago. I've taken to watching. Oberving. Occasional rough grunts to show I'm alive, but aside from that, just watching...observing...him. &lt;br /&gt;   He's smoking. I know he's too broke to afford cigarettes. I know he bludged them. Chances are he didn't even know the person. He's a performer. He will charm until he gets what he want. Cigarettes. Love. Money. Today he has extracted a cup of coffee from me. This sits in front of him, half drunk. A cappuccino. Reasonable flavour. Not fantastic quality. But I know he's not a discriminating coffee drinker. As long as I'm paying, it all works.&lt;br /&gt;   I think his girlfriend is talking. Not sure what about...herself probably. Unlike previous girlfriends ths one is a teenager, as opposed to a teenager's body with a thirty year old soul. No...this one is definitely a teenager. &lt;br /&gt;   She's an ex-smoker. Playing with some of his used matches. Flicking them between her fingers, talking, but staring intently at his cigarette, watching his hand move back and forward from the table to his mouth.&lt;br /&gt;   My eyes follow hers to the hand. He has a very feminine way of holding his cigarette. Not like my mother. My mother holds her cigarette like it is something to be treasured. Like each puff will be her last. My mother holds her cigarette like an addict. He doesn't. He holds it like a fashion statment. Like pin-up girls in the forties and fifties. Like it is something to make one's self more attractive. Like he could quit at any time but now is just not convenient. He'd make you believe it too... if you gave him a window. He gently draws back, then allows whisps of smoke to curl out the side of his mouth and trail up into the air. &lt;br /&gt;   Cigarette smoke has always fascinated me. It has a funny way of curling itself round the air and strangling. The smoke suffocates the air before wafting over to my face, engulfing me in a smell I find oddly comforting. Marlboro smoke. I am immune to it. &lt;br /&gt;   Girl is still talking. He is still smoking. And me? I am still watching...observing...inhaling offcast Marlboro smoke and thinking...&lt;br /&gt;   When I looked at him I saw a little boy in big boy's clothing. That is all. He was smoking. He was cool. He was fine. And he was so out of his depth.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-927445636215603795?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/927445636215603795/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=927445636215603795&amp;isPopup=true' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/927445636215603795'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/927445636215603795'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/08/is-that-spring-i-can-smell.html' title='Is that spring I can smell ???'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-5533975484921598493</id><published>2007-07-29T20:09:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-07-29T20:29:54.731+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Honestly</title><content type='html'>Honestly I have been abit down the last few days As you guys know I live alone and are not normally lonley just alone but for some reasion I have been lonley the last few days apart from a great chat online with a distant friend I have really not spoken a word to anyone Sometimes this is not problem in fact most of the time its all good but for some reasion the last few days it has been .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was going for a nice long ride today but the weather was so dam cold I pulled out of it after a few kms cause it just was not fun I was warm enough with all my gear on but with overcast skys and snow in the air I thought the better of it prolly a good thing as there has been alot of car crashes in the area of late due to ice and dumb monkey people ...

Sweetmeats are candies, while sweetbreads,&lt;br /&gt;which aren't sweet, are meat. And if we explore its paradoxes, we&lt;br /&gt;find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a&lt;br /&gt;guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. You park in the&lt;br /&gt;driveway but you drive on the parkway. You ship by truck and send&lt;br /&gt;cargo by ship. How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same,&lt;br /&gt;while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your&lt;br /&gt; house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by&lt;br /&gt; filling it out and in which an alarm goes off by going on. When&lt;br /&gt; the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they&lt;br /&gt; are invisible.&lt;br /&gt; And finally, how about when you want to shut down your computer&lt;br /&gt; you have to hit 'START!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love and light my little friends ... &lt;br /&gt;much hugz &lt;br /&gt;Sarah mwa mwa&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-8861280570370253053?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/8861280570370253053/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=8861280570370253053&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/8861280570370253053'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/8861280570370253053'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/07/my-new-bike-yea.html' title='My New Bike ...YEA!!!!!!'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RodscuDocdI/AAAAAAAAAGk/0K70J8HFFFc/s72-c/titleacross.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-964179521205505403</id><published>2007-06-25T18:45:00.001+10:00</published><updated>2007-06-30T20:38:22.459+10:00</updated><title type='text'>8 Things about me ...oks</title><content type='html'>[edit sorry dave!!!!!!]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rn-G9tZJ62I/AAAAAAAAAGc/YOWqS0CaoNU/s1600-h/outback+017.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rn-G9tZJ62I/AAAAAAAAAGc/YOWqS0CaoNU/s320/outback+017.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5079927299412454242" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ifieverfeelbetter.com/"&gt;Dave&lt;/a&gt; taged me for 8 things post well I guess that means I will tell you all 8 more things about me but I think you already know all that is worth knowing ....... So using Dans post as a guide here I go ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1, I am an only child but I do have a young half brother but I think I have only met him once maybe twice ... I left home at 14 and haven't looked back I also have never met my Dad but have no plans to track him down I mean If I am not worth his time then he is not worth mine ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2, I finished high school I hold an arts degree and a marketing degree, They are somewhere in a box which shows how much value I place on them actually I was going to burn my arts degree as an artistic statement but couldn't find it at the time ... ha ha ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3,I am 29 (ouch) I have lived in Sydney, Melbourne, Albury/ wodonga, Paris, Rouen, and that's about it ... I have stayed at other places but not for more than a couple of Mths so they don't count.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4, Lets see jobs lol .... well I was a photographer for a marketing company for a few years, I own a Tea shop and sometimes work as a barista there, I have also made money doing some crap modeling for art studies while in France and I have also done some close protection work in the last few years but the jobs are few and far between (Prolly a good thing)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5,mmmmm am I a christian ??? who knows... I was once but kinda fell out with the powers that be and never really been back .. I like to think I am spiritual and open to many beliefs my own belief would prolly fall somewhere in between them all .... ( not really an answer is it)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6,Music well I like it all I have a huge collection of mp3/cds whatever you kids call them these days ..

I also was going to Melbourne to see Cirque du soleil so I thought I would combine the two and make a day of it taking my mother to see Cirque at the same time at least we would have something to do rather than dificult conversation and we would be in a public place so less chance of Me comiting murder with so many people around (Note I only said less lol) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway we met for lunch at Southbank which was ok only she turned up totaly under dressed I am not complaining only that if she could have made some effort what the hell I can get over it right .. anyway we didnt talk much and when we did it was mostly shit anyway I didnt want to tell her anything she could use against me at some latter date and so I answered most of her questions quite vauge She told me alot of what she was doing and I was polite about asking all the right questions about how she is etc .... for the most part I guess It was positive but not something we will do anytime soon So anyway we ate I payed (nothing new there) then walked down to see Varekai by cirque du soleil,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RkfrrI3arkI/AAAAAAAAAF8/xVUUxgSZatI/s1600-h/grandchapiteauws4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RkfrrI3arkI/AAAAAAAAAF8/xVUUxgSZatI/s320/grandchapiteauws4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5064275432348233282" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was Fantastic They sure know how to put on a show!!!! I totaly recomend it to everyone given the chance!!!!! trully I was so impressed by the performance the costumes the lighting everything was great you just didnt know where to look I totally wish I had run away to join them at a young age !!!!!&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RkfqGI3arjI/AAAAAAAAAF0/XgA0Q00NLQU/s1600-h/untitled.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RkfqGI3arjI/AAAAAAAAAF0/XgA0Q00NLQU/s200/untitled.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5064273697181445682" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyway I guess overall it was a nice day I talked to my mum first time in years and we didnt argue perhaps there is hope yet ... but dont hold your breath!!!!.. I know I know life is too short and I am a forgiving soul But not forgeting so lets just see as time moves on!!!! Best of all I got to go to the Cirque with my mum something I never did as a kid ... and lets face it I am still a child after all ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love and light &lt;br /&gt;Friends &lt;br /&gt;Sarah xoxoxox&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-3928616391241287029?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/3928616391241287029/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=3928616391241287029&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/3928616391241287029'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/3928616391241287029'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/05/mothers-day-varekai.html' title='Mothers Day Varekai'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RkfrrI3arkI/AAAAAAAAAF8/xVUUxgSZatI/s72-c/grandchapiteauws4.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-2032149537335167339</id><published>2007-05-05T13:14:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-05-05T13:38:12.781+10:00</updated><title type='text'>How to find words</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rjv5p43arfI/AAAAAAAAAFU/txNsjcSqP4w/s1600-h/forgotten.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rjv5p43arfI/AAAAAAAAAFU/txNsjcSqP4w/s320/forgotten.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5060913104315657714" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I feel cranky I don't want to do anything I don't want to see anyone I just want to sit and stare mindless into the TV or something of that nature ... Robbie is coming over in about 30 mins and I don't want to see him .. Perhaps I will ask to go see a movie so I don't have to talk to him... That doesn't sound good dose it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have just got back in town after a few weeks on the road and I want to get back on the road ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think I will end it with Rob soon he isn't the one he never is going to be the one so why do I waste my time with him????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway on a brighter note I am seeing alot of bloggers get annoyed and pissed off and confused by blogging and peoples comments ... Its always stunned me as to why I blog at all I mean I am normally a fairly personal person I still haven't worked out why I would write anything on here stuff that I don't say to my friends ... OH I remember I don't have friends lol ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Narrr Perhaps I will have to make my next post very personal and on my inner most thoughts and fears ... now that's a scary thought should I tell you about the voices and the monsters that visit me when I am all alone in the dark ... I know we all have them .... So what is your greatest fear? what scares you? What has hurt you and revisits you ?? Tell me yours and I will tell you all mine in my most intense and deepest post yet (next week sometime) &lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rjv75I3argI/AAAAAAAAAFc/ahXk281jpg8/s1600-h/Monster.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rjv75I3argI/AAAAAAAAAFc/ahXk281jpg8/s320/Monster.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5060915565331918338" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-2032149537335167339?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/2032149537335167339/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=2032149537335167339&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/2032149537335167339'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/2032149537335167339'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/05/how-to-find-words.html' title='How to find words'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rjv5p43arfI/AAAAAAAAAFU/txNsjcSqP4w/s72-c/forgotten.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-121041360768076875</id><published>2007-04-28T21:42:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-04-28T21:59:19.409+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Missy New Album out 2Day!!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RjM0y43ardI/AAAAAAAAAFE/5Vo3VnLshJ0/s1600-h/music-2---missy-higgins.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RjM0y43ardI/AAAAAAAAAFE/5Vo3VnLshJ0/s400/music-2---missy-higgins.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5058444855330123218" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Missy Higgins relesed her new album "On A Clear Night" today and I am not going to review it or anything but I will tell you Its fantastic you can hear alot of it&lt;a href="http://www.missyhiggins.com/"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;or even &lt;a href="http://collect.myspace.com/music/popup.cfm?num=8&amp;time=undefined&amp;fid=7677718&amp;uid=1&amp;t= 6WprhkjzDDso0tBkFonztZ90JX0Dl/V5kcbD7HoCvuBmxPJ7QJEC1H BpqlFwNPa1bXY20uatYDs7/NmblLUg==d=NzY3NzcxOF4xMTc3NzM0NDA5"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;if you dont know her work ...

I try to get one every couple of weeks but some of those are sports ones and they hurt not the kinda soft feel good ones that we sometimes need .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aunyway just a short post to say all is well in my world once again ... and sleep is not as over rated as I thought ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love and light &lt;br /&gt;Sarah&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-9153637598949628803?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/9153637598949628803/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=9153637598949628803&amp;isPopup=true' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/9153637598949628803'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/9153637598949628803'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/02/all-sleep-in-needed-yea.html' title='All the sleep in needed yea!'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rdd_892w2yI/AAAAAAAAAEU/jDxMB51uArw/s72-c/Sleeping.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-1533795817080070575</id><published>2007-02-17T20:11:00.000+11:00</published><updated>2007-02-17T20:40:41.398+11:00</updated><title type='text'>What a Week</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RdbNBd2w2xI/AAAAAAAAAEI/8xP8MtY-gR8/s1600-h/totalrelax..sarah.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RdbNBd2w2xI/AAAAAAAAAEI/8xP8MtY-gR8/s320/totalrelax..sarah.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5032435058710993682" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I have made it through another week and gotta say I feel like crap at the moment. I dont really know why I just feel so tired and run down maybe I will sleep well tonight (fingers crossed). &lt;br /&gt;Lets see things with Rob are really moving along but I dont know how I feel yet apart from numb He has alot of good points but I can not really see it going anywhere to tell the truth I have told him I dont know how I feel and he says he dosnt know either so I guess we are both in the same boat on that one He is coming over for a sleep over tommorow night and that will be fun as long as he understands that it is what it is and and I am not promising anything but I have told him all that so he can not blame me if things change.&lt;br /&gt;I am spose to visit mum and her bunch late next week which is stressful but at the same time something I feel I should do. I dont know if I want to do that either but I guess I will feel better if I at least make some effort.&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps I need a  massage in fact as I type that I think thats is what I will do perhaps visit one of the day spas that are around the place cause I feel I have lost some peace that my life is centered around. &lt;br /&gt;Not much else to report I guess just life is kinda boring and stressful at the same time right now ... &lt;br /&gt;I will try and post more I know I have been slack of late ... sorry &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for all the kind words people &lt;br /&gt;love and light Sarah&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-1533795817080070575?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/1533795817080070575/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=1533795817080070575&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/1533795817080070575'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/1533795817080070575'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/02/what-week.html' title='What a Week'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RdbNBd2w2xI/AAAAAAAAAEI/8xP8MtY-gR8/s72-c/totalrelax..sarah.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-8138652907130729225</id><published>2007-02-12T11:20:00.000+11:00</published><updated>2007-02-07T23:45:42.296+11:00</updated><title type='text'>Really I Just Dont care enough !!!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rc-7eN2w2wI/AAAAAAAAAD8/5AKx-gYqteU/s1600-h/Mother.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rc-7eN2w2wI/AAAAAAAAAD8/5AKx-gYqteU/s400/Mother.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5030445436585958146" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok been awhile I guess???? Just havnt felt like posting &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The last week has seen me grow and learn so thats gotta be a good thing well perhaps it started with an email from my mum ... yes my mum who I havnt spoken to in about 6 years and before that prob not much either now gotta say I was just about to delete it without reading it but felt worth the read I mean why not right. Anyway it seems she is real sick and wanted to see me blah blah etc etc ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Why should I was the main thought that crossed my mind for a day but then I thought well hell I am bigger than that so I finally got up the courage to call her for a chat (see I can be a big girl lol) Gotta say I didnt have to bite my tounge as much as I thought I would maybe she is sick I thought anyway we actually talked for over an hour about all kindas of crap (I guess she dosnt really know much about me) anyways she seemed happy that called and she cried alot (drama queen) It seems that she is in a bad way and wants to make peace with me while she can (I never believe anything that comes out of her mouth so will see) but also told me that my half brother wants to meet me.. I totally forgot I had a half brother lol.. I dont really have time for all there bullshit but I didnt say that I am like well who knows maybe I dont know sometime perhaps. There is alot of water under the bridge so who knows what I can forgive and forget... I am not getting any younger myself &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess the main thing for me is I just dont care. I couldnt care less these people are nothing to me and will never be anything to me ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The phone call ended with with her promising to call me soon and perhaps meeting them all one day ... Do I really want to do this ?? If I dont will I regret it sometime ? I think not! but who knows &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess I should explain that there is a long story behind it all the short version for those of you who dont know about my mum is that through her neglect and basicaly the fact that she didnt want to be a mother to me I left home at 14 to live with a friend and hes familay and really have only had minnimal contact with her seince then and the contact that I have had has been less than nice that is both my fault and hers I will admit that ..... But for now I am like I just dont care Its like people I dont know and have nothing to do with me for many years they are not part of my life have never been and will never be so whats the point!!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-8138652907130729225?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/8138652907130729225/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=8138652907130729225&amp;isPopup=true' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/8138652907130729225'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/8138652907130729225'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/02/really-i-just-dont-care-enough.html' title='Really I Just Dont care enough !!!!!'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/Rc-7eN2w2wI/AAAAAAAAAD8/5AKx-gYqteU/s72-c/Mother.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-7973281640450401397</id><published>2007-01-28T12:44:00.000+11:00</published><updated>2007-01-28T13:06:40.788+11:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='autralian of the year awards'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vegan'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Shanaka fernando'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lentil as anything'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='veggie'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='restartant with no prices'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='local hero'/><title type='text'>Shanaka Fernando was named Australia's Local Hero</title><content type='html'>Shanaka Fernando was named Australia's Local Hero for his work founding not-for-profit restaurant chain &lt;a href="http://www.lentilasanything.com/"&gt;Lentil as anything&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The group of four restaurants, which employs about 80 young people and provides space for artists and writers, does not set prices for dishes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead, diners are encouraged to pay what they can afford or what they think the meal was worth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr Fernando sunk his personal capital into the first restaurant and turned it into a co-operative and youth training enterprise.

But I really have no goal at the moment which makes it hard as hell when you dont know where you are heading... I have started back in the weight room I think just to stop the boredem at the moment perhaps to get a nice girly 6 pack back for next summer perhaps to take on the surf again and maybe even enter a comp or something ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I kinda retired from adventure racing about a year ago and I have loved the break no a year when you wake up with no pain when you eat what you like not what you have to. So anyway I am not going back to any of that crazy stuff but I feel the need to do something anyway in doing so I hooked up with my old PT this week and we started training again gotta say I am sore all over even my toes (what the hell is that about) its kinda fun and I feel fitter and more relaxed again &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What dose it say about me when I have to run and lift weights and swim just to be able to sleep well at night .. lol go figure but I have noticed that this time I am eatting better and my body is loving me for it execpt I am getting vains coming up in my arms and legs not ugly ones like spider ones I mean muscle ones its kinda freaky when I finsh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RbcY6OjWXtI/AAAAAAAAADQ/3D_ebNb0ChQ/s1600-h/0,,5364091,00.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RbcY6OjWXtI/AAAAAAAAADQ/3D_ebNb0ChQ/s320/0,,5364091,00.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5023511297972920018" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am going to spend Australia day (aka invasion day) back at bondi with some old friends celebrating what its like to be in the lucky country and living the good life .....

Perhaps eccentric but not weirdo prick"&lt;br /&gt;"No seriously Sazz you do weird things"&lt;br /&gt;"Weird to you maybe not to me"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway I got thinking am I that weird!! did High school scar me that much!? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He gave me five things that I do and he thinks they are weird? I dont think so! do you ??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. I randomly call it french day or deaf day or german day and then only talk that language for the whole day to everyone I meet or even online. But thats just about me keeping up my language skills so thats not weird! is it?NOT WEIRD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.I sleep for about 4 hours at a time prefering to get up early then sleep after lunch then stay up late. Is that so bad I mean we live in a 24/7 world it makes sence to me.NOT WEIRD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.I have never and will never go inside a Mc Donalds or KFC. I mean why would ya?NOT WEIRD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.I like my Tea to made in order. But thats just taste isnt it! NOT WEIRD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.I dont work I havnt worked in many years and have no intention of ever working a real job ever! That just luck NOT WEIRD &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I would say at best perhaps a little eccentric but not weird not at all!!! most people might say something different but then again they are the people who hate everything.. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I looked up &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eccentricity_(behavior)"&gt;Eccentric&lt;/a&gt;"In popular usage, eccentricity refers to unusual or odd behavior on the part of an individual." Thats not so good so I read on "Eccentricity is often associated with genius, giftedness, or extreme creativity; the word itself is often employed to euphemize or invert a connotation of madness hence the phrase "there's a method to his madness", implying inscrutable complexity or originality in lieu of the dismissible randomness of common lunacy. The individual's eccentric behavior is perceived to be the outward expression of his unique intelligence or creative impulse"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh Tommorow I have a second date with Rob we are off to the movies and coffee should be great oh and its his birthday!! That is so unfair that we start dating and he has a birthday on the second date I mean I have to get him something but I dont know what he likes yet so its hard as hell .... I am thinking of a necklace that I like and hope he dose .. just something small.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love and light friends &lt;br /&gt;see ya soon &lt;br /&gt;Sarah &lt;br /&gt;hugz and kisses&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-1577586508172846921?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/1577586508172846921/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=1577586508172846921&amp;isPopup=true' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/1577586508172846921'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/1577586508172846921'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2007/01/i-would-say-eccentric.html' title='I Would Say Eccentric'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-7082380759929585321</id><published>2007-01-14T21:31:00.000+11:00</published><updated>2007-01-14T21:49:48.366+11:00</updated><title type='text'>The Smoke Gets in your Eyes</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RaoIn38KhmI/AAAAAAAAACw/JeVRLhOgAVY/s1600-h/untitled.bmp"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RaoIn38KhmI/AAAAAAAAACw/JeVRLhOgAVY/s320/untitled.bmp" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5019834215782057570" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today started so stuffed up I sleeped in untill 10am now I normally get up at 5 am so go figure anyway I woke up and smelt smoke lots of smoke my eyes hurt mouth was dry and sore .. it was not dark but not light either there was a weird orange haze over everything.. there were no bird singing songs nothing at all!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was in a panic now as you know (or dont know) I live on about 5 square km of bush land and its the hight of fire seasion even though we had late last year we are still in a very bad fire seasion here!! anyway I ran from my bedroom to see what the hell was going on ...

The presentation of workshops, demonstrations, entertainments and the maintenance of site facilities are all performed by volunteers, monetary payment is neither accepted nor made. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Explore wellbeing ways - drumming, dancing, storytelling and friendly chats at firecircles. Make links with others. Relax among new friends. Share healing ways in hundreds of workshops and mini-conferences. Have an outdoor massage (over 30 tables). Go into the steam lodge. Have a swim.&lt;br /&gt;Slow down in a safe friendly environment. Dance the nights away with thousands under the Southern Stars. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At ConFest, people often set up villages with differing themes, some of the villages have been: Healing Village (a wide range of healing ways), Spiritual Village (spiritual ways and ceremonies), Arts Village (all forms of art,mud bath and hot tub), Families Village, Spiral Village (drumming/well-being), Yoga Village, etc. etc.. Little is pre-planned and events happen spontaneously. ConFest is a very unique event and all attending speak of the 'ConFest spirit' as something very special. In the Music Village, and at odd spaces around our site, performers include acoustic, folk, jazz, reggae, world and indigenous musical acts as well as some circus, theatre, comedy and poetry on an open air stage. As well spontaneous music, dance and art events and happenings that can emerge anywhere at any time. Once inside, all events are free..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyway this is where I will be the next few days but most likly be home early as I have some things to do around the place this year .... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are going to Confest make sure you email me asap if you want to catch up I will be around and online maybe ???? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway &lt;br /&gt;Love and light net peeps &lt;br /&gt;Sarah hugz and kisses !!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-6249708787265987546?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/6249708787265987546/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=6249708787265987546&amp;isPopup=true' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/6249708787265987546'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/6249708787265987546'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2006/12/leaving-for-confest-soon.html' title='Leaving for Confest soon'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-5840135050273684455</id><published>2006-12-27T13:01:00.000+11:00</published><updated>2006-12-27T13:15:33.970+11:00</updated><title type='text'>Christmas Gifts</title><content type='html'>Hi Friends while I can not give you and gifts ...lol well I could maybe but I wont lol I have re posted my New Zealand trip vid blogs for all of you who havnt seen them I know they are crap but I thought what the hell I will only have them up for a week or so untill I pull them down cause I am alittle weary of putting vids of myself up on the web for everyone to see ...

Victoria is still in the grip of some major fires as I type so I hope everything is well with anyone down that way ... thoughts and light to you all &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RX0EZ_YX5sI/AAAAAAAAABU/1Qq0KRHp9BU/s1600-h/fires406.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RX0EZ_YX5sI/AAAAAAAAABU/1Qq0KRHp9BU/s400/fires406.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5007163205262763714" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will post soon &lt;br /&gt;take care kids &lt;br /&gt;Sarah &lt;br /&gt;love and light&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-5103498596857808530?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/5103498596857808530/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=5103498596857808530&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/5103498596857808530'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/5103498596857808530'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2006/12/ahhhhh-year-is-coming-to-end-real-quick.html' title='AHHHHH! the year is coming to an end real quick'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RX0EZ_YX5sI/AAAAAAAAABU/1Qq0KRHp9BU/s72-c/fires406.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-3499546067836603741</id><published>2006-12-09T23:06:00.000+11:00</published><updated>2006-12-09T23:20:33.280+11:00</updated><title type='text'>Hard Candy</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RXqncPYX5rI/AAAAAAAAABI/ZP8x7WgekRI/s1600-h/12-745466.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oKBgHUyz-iQ/RXqncPYX5rI/AAAAAAAAABI/ZP8x7WgekRI/s400/12-745466.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5006498039382664882" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I dont do movie reviews and alike but I watched this one on DVD last night and thought it was fantastic so if you havnt seen I am not going to wreck it for you by saying too much about it but If you get the chance watch it ...

Anyway this is one I would like you to all get behind cause its something that has touched my life in such a huge way but we will get to that .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is White Ribbon Day ?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;White Ribbon Day was created by a handful of Canadian men in 1991 on the second anniversary of one man's massacre of 14 women in Montreal. They began the White Ribbon Campaign to urge men to speak out against violence against women. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1999, the United Nations General Assembly declared November 25 the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (IDEVAW) and the White Ribbon has become the symbol for the day. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Does Wearing A White Ribbon Mean?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wearing a White Ribbon is not a badge of purity or a badge of perfection. It does not mean that the wearer has perfect relationships. It does not mean that this man has never been violent in the past. It does not mean that this man has all the answers. It simply means that this man believes that violence towards women is unacceptable&lt;br /&gt;In 2004, more than 200,000 White Ribbons, and in 2005 250,000, were worn by men and women across Australia in their workplaces - all Australian police forces, many national and local sporting organisations, the media, politics, the Australian Defence Force, and in capital cities, rural towns and regional centres.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So Why This Day Why am I Talking about this one?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I always think twice or three times about posting my personal stuff on my blog cause it never seems to be a wise thing to do but here goes I guess most of you kinda know about my past anyway so the short and condenced version.&lt;br /&gt;First I have to say this this is like a Life time ago (well 6 years and a bit now)As most of you know I was married YEA! to the best guy in the world well so I thought We has the best wedding it was so kewl I rember that 2 of my friends from France came all the way to suprise me and that my dress was like 2000 worth and so nice, We actually spent more money on hire cars than I did on my first car as we had 4 vintage black Jags anyway it was such a great day (not that my mother came but thats another story) anyway before I get lost in all the girly shit about how nice it was and who came etc etc. thats not what I am talking about See Noah (G_d bless him!) had quite a few problems the major one was his anger and his controling ways now I know I should have seen it coming and looking back I prolly did. But when you are young and stupid you think you can do anything and hey the church was there to help and suport were they not! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So it wouldnt have been long before I knew things were not quite right probaly started with my friends telling me that he treated them like shit behind my back (always trust your friends!!!) and asking me not to see some people I mean we were married and I guess I could do that right! so anyway by the end of the first year I Had distanced myself from most of my friends I had made some huges changes in my lifestyle just because of him now I know that in the first year we had some huge fights what was worrying was that the fights were getting worse from simple disagrements to full on shouting matches to pushes and by the end of the year you guessed it pushing shoving and the odd hit!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its actually alot harded for me to write this crap than it should be so if it seems that I am just touching the surface well you get that .. Its personal stuff after all and the net is so personal right! anyway I dont know how it happaned I dont know what went wrong and I dont know how I got so so very stupid but by the end of the second year I had become what I hate!.. I had lost myself I was in a relationship with a monster that got worse and worse the violence got more often and more severe By the end of that year I was more a punching bag than a wife ( dont know how I dont know why) but I do know that I was getting hit atleast once a week that my life was not mine and I have NO idea why I stayed or why I let this happan or why I kept going back for more!! I guess some lessions you just dont learn! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It all came to a head when I fell pregnant after we had been married for about 2.5 years. Now a baby is going to fix everything isnt it! I mean everyone loves babys and this was going to be our start to a family everything was going to be so good I told a church friend first who has some idea of what was going on. Most didnt!.. I was so scarred to tell Noah about it I kept it to myself for a few weeks fearing an argument. I use to live with such fear. Anyway when I did telll him all hell broke lose big time and to cut along story short I got the beating of my life at aobut 3 am I woke up in a pool of my own blood and everything hurting i couldnt breath I couldnt walk and my arms wouldnt do what I wanted I so dont know how I got to the phone and got an ambulance I looked like I had been run over with a Truck twice... I forget most of what happaned for the next few days I was in Hospitial and thats all I really know. Needless to say I lost the baby even if it was only early days you still feel the loss. Noah was no where to be seen and My only true friend in the whole world was there by my side. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was like the end and the start of my life (I know I am skipping stuff) anyway Noah was tracked down by some of my old friends from surfing days and from what I hear they fucked him up good not that I wanted that to happan I just wanted him gone and for the most part I never saw him again untill late last year but more on that another time .. ( I do love him) ... From then on I took alot of time getting to know me getting to know what I wanted to do .. getting to know how to live the life I wanted with the people I want to ... Anyone who knows me now would tell you just how strong I am how balanced I am. How at peace I am .... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So getting back to WHITE RIBBON day its a big one its something worth your support its not going to cost you anything. So get behind it for everyone whos still living in fear whos hiding from people who say they love them for you mother your sister you ex girlfriends you children your friends ... just stand up!!!! ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Australian research has established that: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;more than 1 million women have experienced violence during a relationship with 60% reporting that they lived in fear during the relationship; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;23% of women in a current relationship, or who had been in a relationship, experienced physical and/or sexual violence from a partner;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;20% of women who experienced violence were pregnant when violence first occurred; &lt;br /&gt;67.6% of women who experienced violence said their children had witnessed the violence (Women's Safety Australia, ABS 1996);&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the average direct cost of services for each victim of domestic violence was just over $51,000 per year in 1988; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;domestic violence generates enormous costs for the health sector and the legal sector (second only to traffic accidents in taking up police time) (Roberts 1988); &lt;br /&gt;domestic violence significantly disrupts employment and business productivity with direct and indirect costs to business estimated at $1.5 billion annually (Henderson 2000); &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;there are significant costs in income and other support for women who are unable to obtain or keep a job in the wake of leaving a violent relationship. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wow did you really read all the way down to here ... Well done !!! lol &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway I so hate talking about the past thats why I skipped along and tryed not to get into do much depth with it all .. the main thing is its just so long ago and so much not who I am today ..... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess thats all I Have for ya today &lt;br /&gt;play safe &lt;br /&gt;love and light &lt;br /&gt;Sarah &lt;br /&gt;XOXOXXOXOXOXXOO!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you want more info on white ribbon day &lt;a href="http://www.whiteribbonday.org.au/"&gt;click here &lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-3874459373151840215?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/3874459373151840215/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=3874459373151840215&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/3874459373151840215'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/3874459373151840215'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2006/11/white-ribbon-day-25th-nov.html' title='White Ribbon Day 25th Nov'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-6058528427179558796</id><published>2006-11-12T14:44:00.000+11:00</published><updated>2006-11-12T15:20:50.328+11:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Schapelle Corby'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='surf'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kathryn Bonella'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Beach party'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Auslan'/><title type='text'>The weekend and Schapelles Corbys book</title><content type='html'>Hi funky monkey people,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/5421/2384/1600/r48287_127169.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/5421/2384/320/r48287_127169.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been reading Schapelle Corbys book "My Story" for those who dont know  Schapelle Leigh Corby, a 28 year old Australian arrested on October 8, 2004 for allegedly transporting 4.1 kg of marijuana from Australia to Bali, Indonesia. Customs officials at the Denpassar airport discovered the marijuana in her boogie board bag. Schapelle was sentenced 20 years imprisonment on May 27th 2005 in the Denpassar district court. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite legal appeals calling for her release, Schapelle Corby remains interned in Kerobokan Prison [Bali]. She steadfastly maintains her innocence! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/5421/2384/1600/corby_schapelle_wkcr.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/5421/2384/320/corby_schapelle_wkcr.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She my be guilty or inocent I guess it depends on who you believe and alike.. I dont know or claim to know if she did it or not but I do think that its kinda harsh the term and prison that she now finds herself in I do feel that she should be able to serve her time here in Australia with decent treatment but if you like there are many sites like &lt;a href="http://www.freeschapelle.net/"&gt;free schapelle&lt;/a&gt;and &lt;a href="http://www.smh.com.au/news/World/Schapelle-Corbys-world-falls-apart/2005/04/21/1114028489301.html"&gt;News storys&lt;/a&gt; If you would like to know more &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway back to the book its not the best or most intersting thing I have ever read but hey its worth a look when you have nothing to do. Perhaps more sutited to a background new artical about her than a 35 dollar read I found it worthwhile but not something I would buy again .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/5421/2384/1600/SignLouderTShirt.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/5421/2384/320/SignLouderTShirt.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So this weekend I completed my first course in basic auslan sign language and I feel like I took to it like a duck to water its much easyer than it looks and with some help I should be able to pick it up in a very short time this makes one more language to my colection which is growing all the time .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/5421/2384/1600/Coalcliff%201.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/5421/2384/320/Coalcliff%201.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am throwing a huge beach party for my birthday on friday night anyone in the Illawarra area its going to be at coalcliff (above) get intouch or just turn up we will have a fire and DJ so come on down dont bring anything just tell me who you are lol ...

So can the 100,000 or so Australian expatriates living in America.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The US government dismissed media reports it had banned Vegemite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"There is no ban on Vegemite," US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) spokesman Mike Herndon told AAP.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Media reports at the weekend claimed American border officials were confiscating Vegemite from Australians as they entered the US.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The FDA, charged with policing America's food supply, has not issued an "import alert" to border officials to halt the import of Vegemite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Herndon said the FDA was surprised by the media reports.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The controversy centres on folate, an ingredient in Vegemite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under US regulations, folate can be added only to breads and cereals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"One of the Vitamin B components (in Vegemite) is folate," Herndon explained.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"In and of itself, it's not a violation. If they're adding folate to it, boosting it up, technically it would be a violation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"But the FDA has not targeted it and I don't think we intend to target Vegemite simply because of that."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joanna Scott, spokesperson for Vegemite's maker, Kraft, reportedly has said, "The Food and Drug Administration doesn't allow the import of Vegemite simply because the recipe does have the addition of folic acid".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Herndon said, "Nobody at the FDA has told them (Kraft) there is a ban".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To eradicate any grey areas or potential regulation breaches, Herndon said, Kraft could petition the FDA, something other food manufacturers have done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While many Aussies living in the US rely on visiting Australian relatives and friends to bring them a jar or two of Vegemite from Australia, the product is available in some US supermarkets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The price slapped on Vegemite, however, is tough to swallow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A tiny, four ounce jar of Vegemite sells for around $US4.80 ($A6.33) in US supermarkets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OK looks like someone stuffed something up .. ... maybe me for taking notice of a FOX owned media ... shame on me ...

Paul Watkins, who owns a store called About Australia in San Antonio, Texas, said he had been forced to stop importing Vegemite six months ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We have completely stopped bringing it in," he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"(US authorities) have made a stance and there is nothing that can be done about it."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Another reasion I will never go to the usa ... lets make that number 1001 wankers lol&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-8416521478495347245?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/8416521478495347245/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=8416521478495347245&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/8416521478495347245'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/8416521478495347245'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2006/10/your-not-taking-my-vegemite-ill-fight.html' title='Your not taking my vegemite ....

I can almost hear you asking well I have wanted it done for awhile but couldnt do it while I was still fighting .. can you imagine it getting ripped out OUCH plus 1000 !!! so anyway I rang a friend who runs a Pierce shop and thought I would just book in for like a week away giving me time to back out of it if i needed to .. anyway she said she could do it in about an hour if i could get myself down there so i did and here is the result OUCH! well it hurt like a bitch but really not all that bad I mean I didnt even cry such a big girl I am ... Its kinda bleeding abit at the moment and looks kinda yuck the purple ink you can see is where she drew on me to get it in the right place .... as you can see i got a whats called a large hole not the little shitty ones some chics get !!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway I like it and am thinking about getting the other one done next week !! I can not believe I just said that but I think it would look better if they were both done dont you ??? can not go around being unbalanced can I ? for now I will keep the bar thing untill it heals abit and then maybe go for a ring thing... any ideas ???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take care sweet friends &lt;br /&gt;Sarah &lt;br /&gt;xoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxo&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-5869785464389688221?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/5869785464389688221/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=5869785464389688221&amp;isPopup=true' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/5869785464389688221'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/5869785464389688221'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2006/10/nipple-piercing.html' title='Nipple Piercing'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-855168286808234608</id><published>2006-10-04T15:11:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2006-10-04T15:25:03.208+10:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dancing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='boys'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='weekend'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='drinking'/><title type='text'>wednessday is fridays bitch</title><content type='html'>Hi everyone ... been a quite week back home for me so far ... not much going on at all .. after the last few weekends Maybe its what i need!!!!

I did keep an eye on what he was doing but felt silly when I found myself doing it .. I am fine with whatever we are but really I do want more and if i spend to much time with him I know i will just want him so I am trying to give myself some space and let him come to me when he is ready !!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So with the weekend coming up fast i dont know what i am doing I have plans to do a big climb on sunday if the weather stays good fingers crossed I also think I will head out on friday night once again I feel I might be indanger of falling into something I left behind along time ago ... that being the whole club thing .. for the moment i am enjoying going out for a dance and a drink ... perhaps that is as far as this road will lead me this time ... i know i am alot smarter than what i use to be ... well i hope so ... there was alot of lessions along the way ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take care friends &lt;br /&gt;Sarah &lt;br /&gt;mwa mwa&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-855168286808234608?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/855168286808234608/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=855168286808234608&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/855168286808234608'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/855168286808234608'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2006/10/wednessday-is-fridays-bitch.html' title='wednessday is fridays bitch'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-3424578291680931729</id><published>2006-09-28T16:39:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2006-09-28T16:46:01.761+10:00</updated><title type='text'>photos from my cell phone in Melbourne</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger2/5421/2384/1600/Like_a_Girl.2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Its so nice here sitting in the food capatial of Australia and at quote "One of australias premier hotels"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway I find myself reporting on yet another weekend of fun, drinking, clubing, and rooting around ..lol &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So Friday I went and saw &lt;a href="http://www.madman.com.au/actions/trailer.do?method=view&amp;webChannelId=8"&gt;KENNY&lt;/a&gt;From the biggest festival to the smallest church social, Kenny Smyth delivers porta-loos to them all... gotta say I laughed my arse off at this one .. if you like aussie movies you will love this one try to get to see it if you can .. some fave quotes "there is a smell in here that will out last religin " and " here is another example of a two inch arse hole and out one inch pluming"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway saturday night I caught up with John again .. he came to see me while I was catching up with some other friends over some Margiaritas anyway after that we went to see a band for a while and ended up at a night club in central sydney where i jumped the line and walked straight in .. gotta love having frinds in high places or should that be low places .. lol .... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway cutting along story short we ended up back at his place at 5 30 am .. totaly tired and worn out from hours and hours on the dance floor I swear its been so long seice I have danced all night like that so anyway went to bed too tired to fuck (you know that tired drunk messy fucking) so we both fell asleep I kinda heard him get up about 10 am but I was still sleeping at 1 pm he came in with a hot coffee and b/fast. (what a nice guy) I ate then we went out for a smoke it was stormy as there at the time so we headed back to bed to keep warm we talked and talked and smoked and talked .. well you get the idea.. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got to ask the big question which is "what are we and were are we going?" he said and I quote "Its not just a sex thing" but " we are just getting to know each other and I dont want a relationship at the moment" &lt;br /&gt;I explained that while I can live with that I am looking for more and thats were I am at. So for the time I am ok with what we have going on and will keep an eye out for Mr or Miss right to come along and hope that somewhere down the line things might get to where I want them with us who knows what the future holds ...

It was then she told me about all the pressure the church had put opon her at the time to get married and latter to stay married even though she was not happy and has not been for along time .. the echos of what happaned to me were very plan to me &lt;a href="http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2005/12/g-d-never-pushes-you-people-push-you.html"&gt;see my story&lt;/a&gt; and made feel some pain yet again &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now my thoughts are plain .. the church I feel really has it wrong here regarding relationships between boys and girls, men and women, I feel that relationship should be left alone for people to work out and not used as a tool for the church to get involved and pressure people into the whole marriage thing .. (do i sound like a scorned woman) I hope not I am just saying that i feel the motives behind their thinking are more concerned about kids having sex than about what is best for the couple involved !!!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If all sin is equal then sex is no more sinful than lying about something or having thoughts about someone elses wife or hubby something i am sure we have all done at one time or another (perhaps its just me) but really guys sex is not the big deal that some preachers make it out to be .... One preacher that I actually admire for the most part John King even went so far to say that when a man breaks a girls hyman on there weding night that blood forms a blood covernet between the two (miss spelt) I dont know if thats true or not but I gotta say Its a hard perfect world he is living in if he thinks that is the case ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess in what i am  trying to say is SHAME on the church that pressures young people to get married SHAME on the church that trys to control the interaction between the sexes and SHAME on the church that dosnt act as Christ did ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe that while the church persists in this manner than they should expect what they now have and that is a divorice rate the same as the world around them .. but I would also add that included in that 50% of church relationships failing they should also include that normally one or both partys fall away from the church !!!! what is wrong with these people ????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway had do get that one off my chest .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;love and light to you all &lt;br /&gt;especialy all my married and Church loving friends &lt;br /&gt;peace and hugz to you &lt;br /&gt;Sarah xoxoxoxox &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S blogger will not let me upload photos .. that sux !!! bloger beta can kiss my skinny white arse !&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-9159175888971458450?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/9159175888971458450/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=9159175888971458450&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/9159175888971458450'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/9159175888971458450'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2006/09/yet-again-another-bites-dust.html' title='Yet again another bites the dust'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-9170407603702463065</id><published>2006-09-19T20:54:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2006-09-19T21:09:18.157+10:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='quick fuck'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='groove coverage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lush'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='daydreaming'/><title type='text'>Daydreaming again</title><content type='html'>So Tuesday has been the hotest day in like ever and the hotest September in years i think we hit 30 C or close enough .. dam we are in for a long hot summer thats for sure its only just the start of spring !!!!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been thinking and dreaming alot in the last two days still playing&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groove_Coverage"&gt;"groove coverage"&lt;/a&gt;  alot .. dam i love it but it means i bop along everywhere i go and it also means i drive faster with dance music blasting away ... but i think at the moment the best sound system i own is in my car .. gotta change that soon ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;dreams have been weird perhaps i watch to much tv lattly or someting but but then again who really knows if dreams mean anything or just random thoughts ? perhaps flash backs ..

Sarah has a Boyfriend ... there i said it .. omgosh what has the world come to ... dam .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ok so yes Its kinda offical I have a boyfriend now this is just weird for a few reasions first for the most part i have been single for about 4 years or so and for the most part in that time while dating around i have been seeing mostly girls .. so I guess that means I have swaped teams again.... Now I could go into all the messy details about my last 4 years and my bisexual nature but for now I am not going to I guess I will be having a long talk about that one when it comes up in our relationship at some point in time .. We had a great long talk last night about all kinds of things and explored alot of my past that I never talk about and I took down alot of walls that I have up .. we talked about Noah and about the beatings ... we talked about where I am and where I want to be .. we talked about my youth and france ... covered alot of ground which left me feeling very "raw" and exposed but He was great he held my hand and let me get it out he huged me when I needed it he asked all the hard questions and I was open and honest ... well anyway ... it was a rough old night but a very good one we got close and he told me about hes past which is nice and normal ... lol ...

/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Youth leader escapes jail for dead possum prank&lt;br /&gt;August 30, 2006 - 1:32PM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A church youth leader who dragged a dead possum behind his car has avoided a possible jail term for what a magistrate described as extraordinarily antisocial behaviour.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Daniel James Korocz, 22, of Warriewood in Sydney, was convicted in Manly Local Court today of offensive behaviour over the incident on June 24.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"In all the time I've been doing this work, I've never struck anything so extraordinary, so unexplained," Magistrate Andrew George said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Your behaviour is antisocial at an extraordinary level, particularly at your age," he told Korocz, who is studying at TAFE for a career in community welfare.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The court was told that Korocz and three younger boys he knew through church had talked about buying some rope to drag road kill behind his car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The group bought a coil of rope and then drove to the Wakehurst Parkway at north Narrabeen, on Sydney's northern beaches.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One youth found a dead possum on the side of the road and he and Korocz tied the rope around its tail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As his companion held the rope out of an open window, Korocz drove along the road and into Deep Creek Reserve, dragging the possum behind the vehicle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The accused has driven around the reserve for approximately three to five minutes with the possum still attached," a police statement of facts read.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The possum was dragged for about 500 metres before detaching from the rope."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The incident took place about 2pm (AEST) on a Saturday afternoon and was witnessed by several members of the public.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Police were contacted because witnesses were quite disturbed and offended by what they had seen," the police statement of facts said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"They were unsure as to whether the animal was alive or dead."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The court heard that an RSPCA post-mortem found the possum was already dead before it was dragged behind the car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Korocz realised he had "behaved like an idiot" but would never have hurt an animal, Mr George was told.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A psychologist who interviewed Korocz found his behaviour was not a precursor to more serious offending and that he did not pose a threat to society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Mr George said he was not comforted by the psychologist's report.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I'm at a loss to understand what process of logic would make any reasoning person, whether a teenager or an adult, to think that it was somehow humorous ... to tie a dead animal to a car and then drive around with it in front of others," he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The magistrate had the power to impose a three-month jail term and said almost everyone in the courtroom, apart from Korocz's parents, probably thought some jail time would be appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, Mr George said he did not think sending the young man to jail was the right response and instead sentenced him to 50 hours of community service.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Korocz did not comment outside the court.&lt;div

Its a fun group everyone 25 -35 everyone single and nice people I walk to a group of guys and chat a bit they seem nice ... A bell rings and we take our seats they tell us the rules like "don't ask where someone works or lives" and explain that we have numbers if you tick yes and they tick yes then they exchange numbers on Monday and will call us to early in the week etc etc .... &lt;br /&gt;The way the numbers go I wont see Mike till last I think any way I take a seat and off we go ... &lt;br /&gt;its actually really easy and fun as the night goes on most of the guys are great easy to talk to and interesting one guy should not have opened his mouth cause before he did that I thought nice but the way he talked made it along 7 mins ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I did tick yes to a couple of guys that seemed nice and I would like to catch up with over coffee .. But really I was waiting to see what mike had to say ... He really had caught my eye from the get go for some reason ...He just had something that I look for even if the others didn't see it ..... After 5 dates we all took a 20 min break to chat and they brought out more hot finger food ... Anyway at this time I found a bar stool and grabbed another beer while everyone else got into the food ... Some one said hey Sarah your missing out.. &lt;br /&gt;"narr I am right "&lt;br /&gt;the guy organizing it said &lt;br /&gt;"narr Sarah doesn't eat animals do ya "&lt;br /&gt;"Narr its kewl enjoy it " &lt;br /&gt;"this really is good chicken someone yells "&lt;br /&gt;"you should try it "&lt;br /&gt;"look guys respect the dead I yell burry it "&lt;br /&gt;to which comes the reply &lt;br /&gt;"Its been cremated LOL"&lt;br /&gt;that came from Mike with a cheeky grin&lt;br /&gt;and everyone laughed &lt;br /&gt;back to the dating and it was fun even if I said at just the time when everyone was quite "That was the longest 7 mins of my life"&lt;br /&gt;to which everyone looked around and laughed at me &lt;br /&gt;moving on along came Mike at last and we chatted about everything he was great telling me about his young daughters (2) and how his happy and enjoys life and stuff and anyway the 7 mins was up and the bell rang and we kept talking &lt;br /&gt;Then he said showing me his sheet (the one you tick yes/no on) &lt;br /&gt;"gee I forgot to fill this out"&lt;br /&gt;"I will do it for you I say " &lt;br /&gt;"LOL what" &lt;br /&gt;" yep look you want to put YES for me and NO for everyone else"&lt;br /&gt;" do I just" &lt;br /&gt;" hell yes "&lt;br /&gt;" that's a bit fwd don't you think"&lt;br /&gt;"well up to you but I reckon so "&lt;br /&gt;"ok done and we fill out his sheet together with everyone getting a NO except me ... YEA YEA !!!!"&lt;br /&gt;after that we all kinda move into the rest of the pub with everyone else .. There is a dj (who is quite good) and about 50 - 80 other people around we chat in about three small groups and find that everyone there is really having a good time and have a lot in common even just the guys and girls swap numbers cause we are all single and live in the same general area .. Its nice ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyway here's is where it gets interesting ... There is two guys that I like mike and john .. We are talking in a group of about 6 people john has had too much to drink his a nice guy and I think I would like him too but I can not get my eyes off Mike .. John says lets dance I say to Mike lets dance he says no I don't want to but you two should ! I look at mike and mouth the words PLEASE he laughs and says you two go .. John grabs my hand and pulls me to the floor ... Ok he's a good dancer and we dance but his hands are around me on my butt on my back and in my hair ... Ok I like it I look to see mike and hes busy chatting so I enjoy the dance we have to the floor to ourselves and as an old raver chic I like it that way .. After a few songs we leave and go back to the group I say to Mike thanks for that he laughs ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Similar thing goes on a few times I end up kissing John a few times on the dance floor and then going back to the group at about midnight Mike says hes going home John and a couple of others want to move on to a club .. I say ok I will go to the club as mike is going home ... As we are walking we see mike waiting at an ATM we all go over and anyway I don't know how it happened but I managed to use the old line ... You guys go and I will catch up latter .. While I talk to mike &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;they leave and mike says lets get a coffee so we walk up to a coffee shop grab a drink and a both and talk ... And talk ... And talk ... And talk ... And talk ... Ok so we have been talking for four hours its now 4 30 am .... Ouch we both say and leave still talking ... We have a lot in common and its just great ... Dam he's cute too LOL &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ok so he is going to get a taxi I offer to drive him home he says yes so I drive him home even if its 40 mins out of my way we kiss goodnight I drive home around 5 am when I get to bed ... &lt;br /&gt;wow what a night ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So there you go .... Had a great time and who knows where any of it will lead if anywhere .... Mike is great I can not wait to get in touch with him again .. John is nice and there is another guy I ticked yes to ... So who knows ..... All up had some fun .. Hope you all is well &lt;br /&gt;love and light &lt;br /&gt;Sarah &lt;br /&gt;hugz&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19535149-115657585966978690?l=smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/feeds/115657585966978690/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19535149&amp;postID=115657585966978690&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/115657585966978690'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19535149/posts/default/115657585966978690'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smallfootprintsau.blogspot.com/2006/08/my-speed-dating-adventure.html' title='My Speed Dating Adventure !!!'/><author><name>Sarah</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02463764234593613913</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://www.geocities.com/soph_555555/32502.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19535149.post-115648765248059565</id><published>2006-08-25T15:39:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2006-08-25T16:34:12.726+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Life death and speed dating</title><content type='html'>Greetings ..... a Random thoughts and the weekend at hand ..... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First Sarah is going speed dating ...

The kind of numbers you have regarding how many people you have made love to (or just fucked lol ) Now gotta say right from the start I have what some people would call a large number... I guess Its all revelent .. I dont think its too large concerdering I am A single adult and have been for years .. also I started at 14 so that gives me what 15 years of play time Ok so there was a point when I was married so that takes a few years off that but all told I dont think its alot .... That said My friend has a 0 number (virgin) at the age of 25 .. good on him I say but its not for me anyway I dont know how we got talking numbers but I do know from past experance not to say my number very often especial to people who have low numbers cause they often dont understand and will jump to all kinds of conculisons ..... Personaly I dont care what number anyone has as long as they are happy with it ... Its so not important!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway as expected my friend totaly freaked out when I told him what my number is Which totaly pissed my off cause I didnt think I would have to explain anything .. I so should learn to lie or something .. but thats bad too ... I try to say its not important what is inportant is I am here with you now ...

Dose it depend on the animal ?? would you stop Japan killing a whale but eat a dead cow? would you stop the canadans clubing a baby seal to death then skining it alive for its fur but eat a chicken? would you stop the korans clubing your puppy dog for a lassie burger but eat a dead pig sandwich while doing it??? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been asked to once again pull a stunt for animal protection and I must say I am ready to have some fun and games with the minds of meat eatters yet again ... This time Melbourne dates yet to be anounced .... I think we are doing something for the chickens like craming naked people into a wire mesh cage to show how cramped the conditions are .... something like that .... As usual I will be there dont know if I will be in the cage this time ... I am getting to old for that shit ... perhaps I will be handing out info .. I think that might be better ... I really dont need the police crap at the moment ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway My question is Do diffrent animals hold a difrent value ? things to note are that a pig is proven smarter than most dogs!!!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;while we are putting a price on animals you may like to note The Chinese government is inviting bids from foreign tourists for the right to hunt endangered species&lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/china/story/0,,1840550,00.html"&gt;Fuckers&lt;/a&gt; I mean how low can you get ....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh also I am doing alittle clean up so I may have more "free to a good home" bits and peices ... keep an eye out lol &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh and been alittle low on entrys for the big crap comp.... I disqulifyed one entry of a nude friend on Uluru-Kata Tjuta (Ayers Rock) cause its not man made and the corries dont like you climbing on it ...

  Dead chickens save drivers on car registration &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;1.00pm Friday July 28, 2006&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;A dead supermarket chicken could save you up to $200 on your car registration, according to a Christchurch woman who has revealed an apparent loophole in vehicle rules. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;It would normally cost her more than $260 to register her diesel vehicle.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;But if a driver goes to the Post Shop and asks them to change the vehicle's registration to a code 06, which is for a non-commercial hearse, then the cost drops dramatically - to just $58.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Her friends told her the scam had been going on for years, so she went to a Post Shop to try it.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;She told the man behind the counter her car was a non-commercial hearse because she carried dead chickens home from the supermarket.&lt;br /&gt;

(dont you think) sometimes they just take the word of someone they meet or the word of a political leader or dare I say it church leader and never question it they take it as fact and then they re spew (is that a word) re say what they heard and alike beleiving it to be fact.. A funny things happans when this takes place I find .. for example a Pastor at the church I use to go to emails me every mth or so normally just forwarding me an email that they got from someone preacher or leader in the church he normal sends it to me with a sentence or two saying "What do you think of this ?" So I always write back the problem is that when He sends me stuff I always do a search on the infomation and read up on it .. In the very least I check everything at &lt;a href="http://www.snopes.com/"&gt;snopes&lt;/a&gt; sometimes I look a bit harder why I do this is basic I dont trust alot of the info that comes from the right wing media as has been shown in things like &lt;a href="http://www.cerebellum.tv/fvideo/outfoxed.php"&gt;OutFoxed&lt;/a&gt; Anyway most of the time my responce is along the lines of " I understand that view but did you realise that the facts are wrong" or "Nice email but did you know its FALSE here is a web site that talks about the urban myth " Now why anyone would like to send me emails without checking the facts is beyond me especialy when a vast number or people attending the church will take it as fact and never question it because it comes from "Gods apointed" is totaly beyond my thinking .... Oh by the way my replys are normally met with disintrest untill the next email .... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyway was watching the vid &lt;a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6517776133137328105"&gt;911 The Road To Tyranny&lt;/a&gt; Its worth a watch if you get time its about 2 hours 20 mins long but well worth it .. not that I am agreeing with the whole conspericy theory thing but Alex Jones makes some good points and has done some great investgation work ... You can have fun like I have double checking all the facts if your really dont have a life like me ... ha ha &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So my point today is why dont people take the time to see if something is true ... They trust everything that is said from the pulpt on the TV in the news papper ... Why ???? do you do it ???

Here are our top 10 reasons to keep pork off your fork and put delicious Babe-free alternatives on your shopping list instead.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;1 Porking You Up&lt;br /&gt;It’s a fact—ham, sausage, and bacon strips will go right to your hips. Eating pork products, which are loaded with artery-clogging cholesterol and saturated fat, is a good way to increase your waistline and increase your chances of developing deadly diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s, asthma, and impotence. Research has shown that vegetarians are 50 percent less likely to develop heart disease, and they have 40 percent of the cancer rate of meat-eaters. Plus, meat-eaters are nine times more likely to be obese than pure vegetarians are. Every time you eat animal products, you’re also ingesting bacteria, antibiotics, dioxins, hormones, and a host of other toxins that can accumulate in your body and remain there for years. Learn more about animal products and your health.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2 Pigs Have Feelings Too&lt;br /&gt;Ninety-seven percent of pigs in the United States today are raised in factory farms, where they will never run across sprawling pastures, bask in the sun, breathe fresh air, or do anything else that comes naturally to them. Crowded into warehouses with nothing to do and nowhere to go, they are kept on a steady diet of drugs to keep them alive and make them grow faster, but the drugs cause many of the animals to become crippled under their own bulk. Learn more about cruelty to pigs. Check out these videos from pig farms in Oklahoma, North Carolina, Nebraska, and South Dakota.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3 Pigs and Playstations&lt;br /&gt;Think that you can outplay a pig on your Playstation? You may be surprised. According to research, pigs are much smarter than dogs, and they even do better at video games than some primates. In fact, pigs are extremely clever animals who form complex social networks and have excellent memories. Eating a pig is like eating your dog! As actor Cameron Diaz put it after hearing that pigs have the mental capacities of a 3-year-old human: "[Eating bacon is] like eating my niece!" Learn more about pigs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4 Pigs Prefer Mud, Not Crud&lt;br /&gt;Pigs are actually very clean animals. If they are given sufficient space, pigs are careful not to soil the areas where they sleep or eat. And forget the silly saying “sweating like a pig”—pigs can’t even sweat! That’s why they bathe in water or mud to cool off. But in factory farms, they’re forced to live in their own feces and vomit and even amid the corpses of other pigs. Conditions are so filthy that at any given time, more than one-quarter of pigs suffer from mange—think of your worst case of poison ivy, and imagine having to suffer from it for the rest of your life. Learn more about what happens to pigs in factory farms. Check out the mange-ridden pigs on these South Dakota and Nebraska pig farms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5 Farming Family Values&lt;br /&gt;Factory farms are pure hell for pigs and their babies. Mother pigs spend most of their lives in tiny “gestation” crates, which are so small that the animals are unable to turn around or even lie down comfortably. They are repeatedly impregnated until they are slaughtered. Piglets, who are taken away from their distraught mothers after just a few weeks, have their tails chopped off, their teeth are clipped off with pliers, and the males are castrated—all without painkillers. Learn more about cruelty to pigs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6 The Manure Is Blowing in the Wind …&lt;br /&gt;A pig farm with 5,000 animals produces as much fecal waste as a city of 50,000 people. In 1995, 25 million gallons of putrid hog urine and feces spilled into a North Carolina river, immediately killing between 10 and 14 million fish. To get around water pollution limits, factory farms will frequently take the tons of urine and feces that are stored in cesspools and turn them into liquid waste that they spray into the air. This manure-filled mist is carried away by the wind and inhaled by the people who live nearby. Learn more about how factory farming damages the environment. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7 Bacteria-Laden Bacon and Harmful Ham   &lt;br /&gt;Extremely crowded conditions, poor ventilation, and filth in factory farms cause such rampant disease in pigs that 70 percent of them have pneumonia by the time they’re sent to the slaughterhouse. In order to keep pigs alive in conditions that would otherwise kill them and to promote unnaturally fast growth, the industry keeps pigs on a steady diet of the antibiotics that we depend on to treat human illnesses. This overuse of antibiotics has led to the development of “superbacteria,” or antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains. The ham, bacon, and sausage that you’re eating may make the drugs that your doctor prescribes the next time you get sick completely ineffective. Learn more about the effect of eating meat from sick, diseased, and drugged animals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8 Hell on Wheels&lt;br /&gt;More than 170,000 pigs die in transport each year, and more than 420,000 are crippled by the time they arrive at the slaughterhouse. Transport trucks, which carry pigs hundreds of miles through all weather extremes with no food or water, regularly flip over, throwing injured and dying animals onto the road. These terrified and injured animals are rarely offered veterinary care, and most languish in pain for hours; some even bleed to death on the side of the road. After an accident in April 2005, Smithfield spokesperson Jerry Hostetter told one reporter, “I hate to admit it, but it happens all the time.” Learn more about cruelty to pigs during transport. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9 Killing Them Without Kindness  &lt;br /&gt;A typical slaughterhouse kills up to 1,100 pigs every hour, which makes it impossible for them to be given humane, painless deaths. The U.S. Department of Agriculture documented 14 humane slaughter violations at one processing plant, where inspectors found hogs who “were walking and squealing after being stunned [with a stun gun] as many as four times.” Because of improper stunning methods and extremely fast line speeds, many pigs are still alive when they are dumped into scalding-hot hair-removal tanks—they literally drown in scalding-hot water.

type='text'>10 Things you didn't know about Danelle And most likley didnt want to know .</title><content type='html'>Heya, So here are 10 things on Dannelle aka Heartichoke, I Have only been watching her blog for about 4 weeks or so and i must say its one of my faves mostly cause alot of it is done in photos and if a photo is like 1000 words or something then her blog is literaly like 100000000 words (whatever) anyway heres the list &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1)She accidentally ate her roommates raw oysters the other day thinking they were mushrooms (ummmmmm... sure they smell the same ...NOT)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2)She has smoked pot in Amsterdam (Ok thats like mega points on the kewlness scale)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3)She would like to get stuck on an island with Jake Gyllenhaal, and heath ledger--though not if they're gonna make out the whole time (I so loved brokeback MT)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4)She has a fear of grasshoppers ..( um ok ..... why?)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5)As a kid she wanted to be Scooter the red transformer on that cartoon.(giggles ok)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6)If she could only eat one food for the rest of her life it would be chesse &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7)she once hit a 6'4" girl from Kenya with a shaved head--playing college soccer, the girl pushed her down, and tried to hit her when she got back up--Danelle pulled her shorts down and decked her--and got thrown out of the game! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8)She has always wanted her wedding band tatooed on if she gets married (oh that is so much harder to take off) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9)she will be 26 next april &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10)And she worked fast food (would you like frys with that..lol) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So There are a few short facts about Danelle, that you didnt need to know but arnt you glad you do ?????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OH if you didnt know her blog is at &lt;br /&gt;http://iheartichoke.blogspot.com/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br
