pre-love

hi team,

have been thoroughly enjoying a delightful visit from our 'australia campaigner', and have been reminded of the joys of op-shopping.

i managed to score a 'rules' football jersey, a XL T, and a official mexican swimwear jacket for a grand total of $28, all of which are coming to a location near you soon.
my mother also hooked me up with some brown curtains (pronounced currrrrtins!) for my room from the Balcutha sally army shop, so i'm pretty down mith my pre-loved stuff at this stage. would like to set up a house like that, but that may have to wait a while.

so i commend you to not waste your hard earned green on designer fashion and the like, when you can have designer fashion and the like, that has been pre-loved for a 1/4 of the price!

i'm also on the look out for a tv (little & brown), microwave (big with knobs), and small portable radio (postie size), so if you or any of your friends can hook us up, that'd be appreciated.

peace out cousies!

word.

witness the fitness

(3.5 + 15 + 3.5) x 6 + (3 x1) = 135

Hopefully, my math-maar-tics is all clever!

3.5 is the ride out to my run
15 is my delivery run
3.5 is the ride back
6 is the number of days i deliver
3 is in the pool

so all in all, my body drives me a minimum of 135kms a week.
that is pretty sweet.
now i just gotta work on 5+aday and i'll be all good.

catch you guys next time.

anniversary

hows it going,

long time, no blogging. but i thought today seemed like a opportune time for an update.
as you may well be aware, much like 9/11 and americans, 14/9 has special significance for me.
so yeah, this time, this day one whole year ago, i was struggling for breath and straining my chest. thanks to colliding with a dirty great power pole on alfriston road, in the 'maroon 5'.

so i guess, you'll all be happy to know that i survived that accident, thanks to God's tremendous grace, and my further hernia. helpful hint. don't ring my mum late at night with 'news about her son', i think she's had enough of those ones already! ha.

but yeah, its kind of weird to look back and think of all the stuff thats gone down in my life in the last 12 months. i'd like to think i live my life with more purpose, but its kinda hard when you get back into the swing of things. i wish i could just bottle all the feelings, thoughts, memories, and just open it up when i need a quick reminder.
but just a word of warning - you don't know when your life will be taken from you, so get right with God.
thanks for coming. peace and love. carl
