G'day folks , hope every one travels safe this easter!

sorry for not being on here much guys, been doing lots of study for tafe

and busy with my band.. we've got a couple of gigs lined up, one next week 

and another in may, possible some more after that,check out our site if you want.

I haven't done much travelling for yonks,  might travel down to adelaide in the next couple

of months for a week during tafe holidays if I can manage it .

I have been for the last 18 (after dad passing and then selling his place and stuff) and other things going nuts for me as well I  months been battling severe depression, some times not leaving my house for days, or staying in bed for days, and battling self harm, almost a couple  of tree cutting attempts if you know what I mean..

Lucky I have car I dont want to hurt!

but I have gone back to a doctor I used to see as a youngster, her sister bought our old farm many years ago!

and I used to look after her kids and cattle ! she been helping me out immensely

l'm now on medication and seeing a therapist once a month, and a counselor to help with my social anxiety which I'm battling as well. 

I turned 46 on monday and my mate from my band took me to Greenwell point for lunch

and fed the seagulls by hand ,a couple them sat  on a chair took chips from my fingers and fed dave the pelican by hand too!

Just love animals, oh my canary passed away, clyde, had him 3 or 4 years before my mum passed

and that was 10 years ago now and I've had him ever since, so I'd say about 16 years old??

I still have Buddy the buddy she loves listening to music and the radio and me playing guitar and haing upside down!!

oh we also lost Euan the Brahma Bull, my friends bull in Kangaroo valley, he was a gentle giant..

 I still do my flight sim when  I can and also do a truck driving sim too now and still doing

mixedbag with milo on my radio station, been with them since 1985!! been doing this show for 8 years now..

still have my little mazda 2 ,12 years and 88000 ks!

anyway thanks for reading, sorry I'm not on so much just been struggling so much lately.

Love one another cause life is too short ....

Keep up the positive thoughts mate. Life is too short to miss out on any of it. Your band sounds like it is going well. Cheers Alice

Hey Milo. You hang in there. For me sitting and playing guitar is the bestthing. Cant sing for nuts but love playing. Its soothing for the soul and never get tired of it. So if your good enough to play in a band then you are way beyond someone like me. Good on you. For me, love sitting outside in the late afternoon looking at the changing sky and the day strumming on the guitar. Makes me appreciate this life and my time on this earth. We are surrounded by beauty, just have to remind myself to look up and see it. Makes this all worth while. Love and laughter is what its about. Keep remembering the music in your soul and inyour hands.

Milo, thanks for the update, though I know a lot of it from FB. Keep on plugging on mate - you will get there- imagine how proud your mum and dad would be of you now - the band, TAFE, you are a busy fella.

And you are right - got to get as much into this life as we can, never know what's around the corner - live life to the fullest - enjoy every moment!
