Sh1t happens, it's bound to now and again, but we can either let ourselves get down about it or choose to turn it into something positive. I don't mind saying that I'm having about the crappiest time I've ever had in my life at the mo, but I'm now in control of whether it gets to me or not. And guess what? It's not.:-6

Pinky if you think about it , there will always be somebody out there in the world who is much worse off than us . Think of people living on the streets at this time of year and people in Africa who have nothing , where literally a few pence can mean a family eating ot going to bed hungry ( i sponser a child overseas) . We all have bad times, it's how you cope with them that counts .

Jimbo and Pinky - hugs to you both.



We had a crap weekend - daughter's ex turning up and being a pain in the bum, other daughter's (ex?) boyfriend going mental but oh well, ho hum it could be worse!! I just have to laugh at all the stupidity or I'll end up going crackers myself!

Some things in life are bad

They can really make you mad

Other things just make you swear and curse.

When you're chewing on life's gristle

Don't grumble, give a whistle

And this'll help things turn out for the best...

And...always look on the bright side of life...

Always look on the light side of life...

If life seems jolly rotten

There's something you've forgotten

And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.

When you're feeling in the dumps

Don't be silly chumps

Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing.

And...always look on the bright side of life...

Always look on the light side of life...

For life is quite absurd

And death's the final word

You must always face the curtain with a bow.

Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin

Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow.

So always look on the bright side of death

Just before you draw your terminal breath

Life's a piece of ****

When you look at it

Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true.

You'll see it's all a show

Keep 'em laughing as you go

Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

And always look on the bright side of life...

Always look on the right side of life...

(Come on guys, cheer up!)

Always look on the bright side of life...

Always look on the bright side of life...

(Worse things happen at sea, you know.)

Always look on the bright side of life...

(I mean - what have you got to lose?)

(You know, you come from nothing - you're going back to nothing.

What have you lost? Nothing!)

Always look on the right side of life...

Thanks mate - feel tons better now.

Sorry to hear about Chantelle, jimbo

Things will get better.

thanks guys , i was half expecting it to be honest , with her mom accidentally losing her passport at Christmas , but as i say its a wicked world out there and some terrible things happen , and if this is the worst thing that happens to us this year it would still be a great year , i'd settle for that right now :-6 :-6

Jimbo, I know all about the pits of life. I too think life goes on, but once in a while, I get fed up with it.



After a few hours of ranting, I'm ready to move on. Usually, I can see the humor, macabre though it may be, that's in so many situations.

One foot in front of the other jimborooni. (I seem to be saying that a lot lately)
