		<description>Just catching up here, and I see you&#039;ve written several posts since this one, so I&#039;ll take that as a good sign you&#039;ve decided to stick with blogging. I&#039;m very glad about that.</description>

		<description>SciFi - Thanks. I&#039;m working it out. 

FGIS - I just sent you an e-mail. No, I&#039;m not doing crystal meth. ;)

Ariza - What are you trying to say about my yard?

Tys - That would be my sunhat. They&#039;re a must on our ozone free island. 

Heather - You&#039;ve wondered what about crystal meth? Do you remember Crystal Light? That scary powdered drink mix from the 80&#039;s?

Allie - Thanks. 

Joe - Sciency post done. As per your request.

Andrea - It may be about filtering. I don&#039;t know yet. 

Jacob - You speak so highly about your son. I didn&#039;t know that you did the two blog thing, does it work for you?

Technobabe - Dr. O&#039;C is never short of input. 

Cat - Thanks. 

CMGD - I think I&#039;m just going to post when I feel like it. Which is what I should have been doing all along really. 

Kitty - I&#039;m thinking of training my current non yard dog to herd my kids. 

Nichole - Thanks. I think the flames on the hood were a nice touch. Right up my aesthetic alley. 

Jan - Thanks for your kind words.

Muskrat - Well, Bama isn&#039;t actually #1 yet, though they should be. 

Agnes - I was astounded how stupid they were watching those trials. It&#039;s like a herd has one brain between them. 

NATUI - Thanks.

SeattleDad - That&#039;s my ultimate goal.</description>

		<description>I hope you stay around in some form.  Just getting to know you so don&#039;t want you to disappear.  But, that being said.  Make sure you and the family are comfortable and secure.

Peace.

		<description>I had a sheep once, his name was Sam. Once he escaped from the paddock into the backyard and ran straight through one of our back windows. They&#039;re cute, but they ain&#039;t clever!

Glad you&#039;re back.

		<description>At least we get some good pictures today...looks like a fun day.
Hope the Tide can avenge the Dawgs&#039; loss on Saturday.  I hate being #1 this early in the season.  I&#039;d rather keep working our way up with each win.

		<description>Hey there...

I&#039;m an Aussie who, until recently, was an expat in the USA for a five years. I began blogging in 2004 about our family&#039;s expat adventures there. At the beginning I began blogging for family &amp; friends to read back in OZ so they knew what we were up to. It does snowball, I agree, but believe me...it&#039;s now a wonderful piece of our family&#039;s history &amp; record of our adventures. Keep it up, your kids (and you), will appreciate it years down the track. 

I understand the concern too whether to blog publicly, or privately about your family, but think it&#039;s soooo much easier to just keep one blog...rather than two. Plus your blog no doubt helps fellow expats in OZ keep sane reading about your Aussie expat experiences too. lol

Cheers! Jan :)
