Getting all of my ducks in a row to start my next project.  I'm building a small greenhouse on Boo Acres.

 

I already have more than enough cedar to frame up the house.  Yesterday, I picked up a truckload of old windows from a friend of mine that flips houses.  All the windows cost me was a case of Yuengling beer...a good deal.  

 

We're starting small and learning on the fly, but becoming increasingly food independent is more important now than ever.

Heading east to a polling booth to hand out how to vote cards.

In Australia, we have our elections on Saturday because we use the school halls as polling booths and it's compulsory to vote (fines if you don't vote) so Saturday works best. Bonus, the school can have a sausage sizzle and cake stall to raise money.

Looking for alternative nicknames for a toilet.  I've referred to the toilet as "the throne" for a long time now.

 

Now with the big jubilee going on across the pond, I keep hearing news readers talking about the Queen having been on the throne for seventy years.  I laugh every time...yes, I'm that immature.

 

Anyway...Good luck her majesty, hope everything comes out well.

Been to see the new Top Gun today....brilliant ...better than the first ....

 

I want to see that movie, but I want to see it in the theatre.  I appreciate any movie where they do the action scenes in as realistic a manner as possible; not all that CGI smoke and mirrors.

 

Both sets of grandparents have been pushing the idea that me and Sugar Britches need to take a date night.  A not-so-subtle way of saying we should just hit the road for the evening so they can dedicate all of their attention to spoiling the grandkids.  Maybe we can catch an early showing on Saturday.

The Thunder box is usually reserved for an outside dunny, often in a tin shed.

 

There is also the shitter, the pisser, the crapper, the Pot, the lav, the office and then if you wanna go all fancy pants and lardy-dah like you have... 

 

The powder room, the lavatory, the facilities or the amenities.

I'm troubled by the fact that my crapper has taken up smoking...

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
