SevenofSeven Posted April 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 So this is the only wildlife I have managed to capture and it's dead, not deadly. Looks like the kookaburras may have got it. A Bluetongue lizard, only young and out at this time of year, leads me to believe the birds got him, because he was too slow. 2 Quote Wait!

SevenofSeven Posted April 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Didn't venture into town yesterday so going in to grab supplies, Son6 coming in as well so I don't forget stuff. Down the track, this. Roly looking to drain some water, still going to be a muddy effort even without water. That much water in the rain water tank awesome, that much on the track, makes for interesting driving skills [emoji12] 3 Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

Leimanu Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Last time I was in Balingup, I walked there from Collie with my uncle. Woden uses ravens, I use an iphone. This is the track to my property, 2km of this, it hasn't been graded for almost 3 years, it us due fir a controlled burn and if I needed an Ambulance..........forget about it. I wonder why I pay Shire rates at times. So this is the only wildlife I have managed to capture and it's dead, not deadly. Looks like the kookaburras may have got it.

SevenofSeven Posted April 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Power out shortly..........the electrical poles are getting swapped out.

Thom Stépan Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 These town names. Do you live in Westeros or Lord of the Rings? South-west of Western Australia, most of the town names are based upon Nyungar aboriginal words. The suffix -up means water. I lived in the town of Kojonup which was based upon two Nyungar words, Kodja meaning ax and up meaning water. So basically I lived in a town named Axwater. There was a natural spring there (still is and part of a park) that was the basis of the settlement. It was a natural stopping place for those travelling between Perth and Albany. 3 Quote Where to find me: Current Challenge : Battle Log : Facebook : Instagram : "Each day, just focus on getting 1% better in whatever it is you're trying to improve.

SevenofSeven Posted April 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Shepards Pie for the Lads for dinner, just finished it. I have training tonight and hopefully will get my workout done before I go. Training is Emergency Child Birth. Can't wait, this is one of my least favourite things to watch, practice and listen to I am hoping they have a new video rather than the one from the early 90's. It's just cringe worthy all round, the kid must be in his 20's by now. Imagine if he turned up as an Oprah "where are they now?" Episode 1 Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

SevenofSeven Posted April 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Finished work in February. Love not working at the moment but miss the second income at times. Probably won't go back until November, just a short year this time around. The Lads schooling is a priority this year. 2 Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment
SevenofSeven Posted April 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Righto, from earlier today: The Cube/Week 6 Explosive Bench Thursday 14.04.2016 Warm Up: Skipping, stretching with bands, all sorts of stuff to do with shoulders and appendages. 1x10@10kg Bus Drivers, Explosive Bench: 1x10@30kg 1x5@40kg 6x2@48.5kg (killed it!) Close Grip Bench: 2x5@51kg (felt really tight with form and loved these today ) Bench with pause 1" off chest: 3x6@43.5kg (just awesome) Laying Tricep Extensions: 4x14@7.5kg Front/Side Raises with Band (Black) 3x12@black band (I think it is 7.5kg, need to check that, totally fried up my shoulders.) Kroc Rows: 3x12@12.5kg (really had to work to keep form on these, far too easy to lose control and almost drop the weight on the down) BB Bicep Curls: 3x12@25kg OHP: 3x10@26kg No ABS today as my brother was waiting and we needed to go into town. Right now my shoulders are hot (literally) and my upper back is getting a little tight! All in all I feel really good about this! On other news Roly has fixed my cable machine so I can add seated rows and flies back into my routine !!!!!! He did however have to shorten the cable so Lat Pull Downs are still missing. Nothing we can't work on though, he looked at the now spare bar and thinks he can recycle it into a pull up bar!!! Family dinner tonight, and Son1 is bringing out baby Boxer puppy and his new tattoo!!!! 1 Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

SevenofSeven Posted April 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 My Partner is turning 50 this weekend, he cancelled his party, which I don't understand but think he may have hit a social anxiety wall. His brother was going to come out and spend the weekend, but rang this morning and cancelled. So I have been watching him slide into a depressive mood. I think me and the Lads will throw him a little party of our own. Time to get to town and get some sparkly decorations! 2 Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

Son1 said there some type of meaning to it, a game or something. On his other forearm he has the Valkyrie Wings, which is pretty awesome!
