I love Marilyn

 I love Marilyn Monroe, in her time she has some the greatest quotes to live by.... not bad for someone who was considered a dumb blonde.

Although I do enjoy some of Mae West and Eleanor Roosevelt

    

THEN when I am having a week, day or moment I like to share these.

I am a happy and positive person so in the end this is where my head ends up.

A GOOD mates voice will be in your head at every moment no matter how far from each other you are

Many of my best mates are often a long way from me and miss moments in my life but they are never far from my thoughts....AND with every action I take their voices are in my head either egging me on or yelling at me  :)

            'A GOOD FRIEND TEST!

           This is GOOD...I expect it back too!
           I especially like the last sentence!!!!!!

           A simple friend , when visiting, acts like a guest.
           A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself and doesn't feel even the least bit 

                 weird shutting your 'beer/vodka drawer' with her foot!

           A simple friend brings a bottle of wine to your party.
           A real friend comes early to help you cook and stays late to help you clean.

           A simple friend has never seen you cry ..
           A real friend shoulder is soggy from your tears..

           A simple friend hates it when you call after they've gone to bed.
           A real friend asks you why you took so long to call.

           A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your problems.
           A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.

           A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument.
           A real friend calls you after you had a fight.

           A simple friend expects you to always be there for them.
           A real friend expects to always be there for you!

One Minute with Outback Girl

I found this on www.bigpictureclasses.com/alie.php, you have just one minute to answer

One Minute with Outback Girl

You have to respond to the following statements in just ONE minute. 

ONE time when I was little, I loved watching the sunset in my cubby with the dogs. 

ONE day I hope to  

ONE movie (or book) is THE SWEETEST THING, I laugh every time I watch the uncut DVD version. 

If I had to create with ONE color for the rest of my life, it would be red BUT just one colour???? I love too many to really want to pick just one.  Life is colour.

ONE of my best strategies for fueling my creativity is to troll social media such as facebook, blogs and twitter.  Connecting people with people is great. 

If I could add ONE hour to my day, I would read and listen to music. 

ONE thing you really need to know about me is I love what I do and am passionate about the outback 

ONE thing I know for sure is laughter, friends and roadtrips are the best.

My last sunset

I don't think I ever shared the last sunset from last year

It was very sad to leave a family I had come to love as my own.  The kids smiles and laughter will stay in my heart. While these photos were not the best I had seen out this window they were beautiful.  

Leaving is a part of life and it makes you appreciate what you have.  I appreciate the advantage the social media and the internet have brought to living in the outback.  An email, status, blog or comment can bring you in touch with someone thousands of kilometres away.

I also love the fact I have jumped out of the rut and now have a new challenge.  I have had new stresses and laughter in my day which has freshened me up.  

What do you think is the great advantage provided in the bush by the internet?

How do you use it in your everyday life?
