Hi everyone, my internet situation will be sorted soon and I'll be back in the swing of things. I hope everyone is well and healthy. We've had some 44 degree days here am am looking forward to some rain.

So to those following, sorry I'm not responding a lot at the moment as I have very limited internet access and I'm out in the bush a great deal and have done close to 30 km's worth of some serious border

Hi to all my community friends. Those of you who knew we had to relocate, the move is done and the new challenges have started, but we have tackled it with a sense of caution and adventure. We are surrounded

I'm not a leading authority on heavy weapons, but have a very real respect for the brilliant technical minds behind the designs of these weapons and their immense power. Many people frown at this kind

So the new week has started after we spent the weekend packing as we will be moving on to a new chapter in life. One of my future colleagues is a young guy of twenty eight years old. We've been working

I live in South Africa and as many know it has joined a list of very corrupt and violent countries. The new government was supposed to become one of equality and democracy, it didn't. The current government

Have you tried some plumbing, electrical work, welding, carpentry or anything out of your comfort zone. I have had to take care of quite a few things that took me way out of my scope of expertise. What

Have you and your partner or family have some little traditions? My wife and I have a Friday night tradition called burger night. It involves me making homemade burgers and fries, hand cut from fresh potatoes.

Well the day is done. I helped my wife with the supper, oven roast chicken pieces, roasted sweet potato & Greek salad and I did the dishes. I've made myself a cup of Rooibos tea which is a natural

People, do you really know what you're getting? Chatting to a mate hear on steemit about the fact that we have both been taken for a ride by business partners and ended up back in the work market we agreed

There are so many ways to engage with other people these days and yet people are still lonely, that island in a sea of passing ships. There are people out there saying they don't need that personal

I took a drive to the shop to pick up a few things for my wife and I. Pretty routine thing to do for many. On my home I take the corner at the gas station and 50 meters up the road from there is a young

We get up every morning as I did this morning and for many they are able to get up and get on with it. The fact that you can means breathing is a given. I looked around this morning and yes it is winter

Is it just me or does anyone else suffer from the "I don't know what to do with a short week" disease. I mean I like spending time with my wife, but I feel I would have rather spent more time

So it's women's day today and besides that fact and the fact that my wife and so many other great ladies get a day to celebrate how great they all are it's a strange kind of gloomy day, but okay. We woke
