We started homeschooling our kids this semester for a variety of reasons. My wife graduated with her degree (finally) and started work which allowed me to quit my grind and be full-time Dad/Teacher. It's cool What type of program are you using?

www.news.com.au/national/clive-palmer-wont-apologise-for-chinese-mongrel-comments/story-fncynjr2-1227030255694Love this statement from Jacquie Lambie! Meanwhile, controversial Palmer United Party senator Jacqui Lambie has launched another bizarre attack on the Chinese government, warning that Australia needed to invest in defence spending, urging the government to double its spending on artillery in preparation for a Chinese invasion.“We should be looking into using missiles if another nation attacks us,” she told 2GB host Ben Fordham. “We need to stop our grandchildren from becoming slaves to an anti-democratic power. “We should be worried about any invasion, not just from communist China, and right now I am concerned about our national security. “Anybody who is close to us and has the ability to reach our shores we need to make sure we can fight for our own country and have the defences to do that.”

With the recent death of Robin Williams I have been reading about how some people have been calling him a coward for taking his own life. In fact someone who works with my husband said this about him too! This is OUTRAGEOUS! Just think how tormented someone must be feeling to feel the only way out is to take your own life! Very recently hubby and I have had a close family member who tried to overdose on a huge amount of medication and this has been very upsetting to us! I was very worried about this person leading up to this and tried to warn people. Often people who you know are suffering will not talk about how they are truly feeling, and just seem to drift. This is a danger sign, it is so important to talk about this if you are feeling like this!
Depression is a liar, it tells you that there is nothing worth living for, that there is no hope! Its just my opinion but I think this makes all the difference between those who do or don't take their life! If you can find some hope deep within yourself then cling onto that and get the help you need. This is the most honest thing you can do for yourself and your loved ones!

as mentioned by almost everyone here, i to am always free to chat, the missus suffered pretty bad post-natal depression after our first 2 kids and I believe she was a sufferer before this due to her nutso mother, it isnt easy but having people around you that gie a genuine damn as to whether you live or die is important. Please dont fight this battle alone, there are many people here who will do what we can to help! I had post natal depression after my fourth and I think after my second although I didn't recognise it then! Mine was a really high anxiety type though.

Yeah I like Annies lane too, good price and very smooth dry red. I knew we got along so well for a reason. We had a bottle last night as we haven't for a while and gee it was good! Today is our anniversary so may have the George Wyndhams!

OK guys let's get serious. You are all (I assume) Aussies but I have yet to see a single mention of Vegemite. Can we get real here? Just how long do you think you will last without Vegemite? Yup, but we get mightymite (gluten free), have about 6 jars stored up. Little one loves it and I find it helps settle tummy.

Yeah empty soft drink bottles are apparently good to use and yes it's good idea to use O2 absorbers. I am storing my dry foods in preserving jars as that way I store the food and the jars and it takes up less space!

with the tinned food, is that 100 tins (and if so what size) or weight? ie kilos? Sorry, yes it is number of tins and the size is standard 400 gm for most of those.

What meals/recipes/portions/energy intake are you basing this on? Sorry this was just a quick list to show what people may need, it's not meant to be an exhaustive list.

All these articles in the news lately are getting the population used to the idea of war subliminally! Not just in far away lands but much closer to home!

www.news.com.au/national/pms-comments-on-possible-military-intervention-raise-questions-about-his-temperament/story-fncynjr2-1227023821523 Our wartime leader! Our Winston Churchill! Are you all ready for the ride??? Love this statement! As for Mr Abbott himself, he has thought back to hero Winston Churchill at major moments in his career, as he recorded in the afterword of his book Battlelines. “When Winston Churchill drove to Buckingham Palace in the dark days of 1940 to accept the king’s commission, he felt that his whole life had been but a preparation for this moment, or so he recounts in his memoirs,” wrote Mr Abbott. “This is not wartime Britain. And I am certainly not Churchill. Still, I feel well equipped to take on the leadership of the party in what are testing times for the conservative side of politics.”

The government wants to keep us dependent on them, then they have all the power! If you take away peoples abilities to make decisions for themselves then they can become your slave! War is a good possibility the cycle is usually recession, depression, currency wars, trade wars and then hot wars! We are currently in trade wars next stop ww3! I want you to be wrong. For no other reason than I really don't want WW3 This cycle is often discussed in financial circles and it is coming from those financial experts and trend forecasters that War is not far away!
