Am excited
Hi everyone.
I just wanted to share.
I am in Sunny Queensland. Getting excited about seeing Celine Dion tonight.
This time last year I never thought I would be excited about anything ever again.
So I just wanted to assure all of you that are going through the sh*t I was this time last year that it gets better. I am still not good but better.
Love to you all.

Tears are running down my face and I nearly wet my self laughing!
No we haven't a phrase like that. Definitely Queensland lingo.
We do have one that means something is the almost the same.
"Same same but little bit different". - FlaneuseMember@"Annie C" I don't know if it's in Kimberley lingo too but in North Qld we used to say "It'd blow a dog off a chain out there".
- KattykitMember@Sister We thought it would be expensive to fly up as well but the airlines have halved the fares if you are flexible with your days and we got a great deal on accommodation through air bnb, we get up there the day after school holidays end.
@"Annie C" great the hotter the better, plus there is a pool and we are staying right on the beach, we have also hired a car so we can get out and explore a bit. Maybe we could make a side trip to Derby. - Annie_CMember@Kattykit and @ Sister
Broome has changed massively over the last 25 years that I have been jn the Kimberley. It is still worth 1 visit. The true Kimberley starts 221 kms northeast of Broome. I am biased.
It is lovely Kattykit that you are taking the time to visit our area. October will be hot hot hot. It is what we call the build up when we all go a little "troppo". It will probably be windy as it is also the "knock em down winds" time. We do have our own lingo up here! - SisterMember@kattykit - Broome is amazing (well, it was 20 years ago), as is so much of the north-west - just ask @"Annie C" . I've done the camel ride - gotta love a camel - and remember fondly the dinosaur footprints. I'd love to get back there but I suspect it will have to wait until the kids grow up as the fares are so pricey to get there.
- kmakmMember@Kattykit Doing better than I expected thank you. Can't press too hard on the burnt bit, driving is a bit awkward and warm water hurts, but not too bad. You're a sweetheart for asking :*
- KattykitMember@kmakm I keep forgetting to ask how your hand is, getting senile in my old age. Take good care of you, we don't come with spares :-)
- KattykitMemberYou will all be sick of my holiday pics by the time I get back..hahaha
- kmakmMemberLooking forward to a Broome photo or two @Kattykit! K xox
