Description
Hi and thank-you very much for looking, my new story will continue using the beautiful V4 (Victoria 4) & M4 (Michael) ... down-under
Quick up-date about Darren and he is doing well he was resting for 2 hours and then stand and walk if possible for 10/15 minutes, now he can move as he feels fit to, Monday was last visit and big band-aid change by district nurse, she left a few big band-aids if he wants change for a few more days, must keep wound clean, he has no car or computer until this coming Sunday then he said he will drive my VW combi van (first drive since operation) after my work day or when I message him I am home.
Happy Halloween (late) ... Saturday the morning of Halloween it started raining just as Evelyn and Myself got to work at Clarky's, Mira was on her way to Melbourne for her new job interview, bugga ... it was not expected to rain all day so what to do, Clarky asked if we can help out by working a few days in a packing shed that called and asked if he had any extra workers, of course we will help so off to the packing shed we will go and for doing so we will get rest day Monday it is expected to rain anyway and Tuesday is Melbourne Cup day (big horse race) and it is not a official holiday but most people take the day off work to watch the big race (get very very drunk), that will work out good.
picture 1; Saturday I will have to re-do my make-up, Mira returned from her new job interview in Melbourne and I asked "how did the interview go?"
Mira said " the interview went great and it will be a amazing job opportunity that I will accept".
Maggie; "you will start on December 1st then?".
Mira; "no".
Maggie; "no? but you will accept the job right?".
Mira; "yes I will accept the job and they want me to start this Wednesday if possible, the other girl gave 2 weeks notice to leave but has disappeared, no contact on the phone or computer she has just left".
Maggie; "Wow! Wednesday that is so soon ... it is a great opportunity and I know you will do well".
Mira; "there is a small apartment included in the job that they were just going to clean-out and put all her stuff in a big dumpster, they said if I want I can sort through it Monday and Tuesday and keep what I might want and throw the rest in the big dumpster all ready for Wednesday" ... "do you think Darren will let me use his car for a few more days?".
Maggie; "he has no use for it at the moment he has to go for follow up visit at hospital Friday and the community car will take him, so I think he will say yes, just ring him and ask".
Mira "could you ring him Maggie? I think he will say yes if you ask".
Maggie; "haha chicken, I will ring and ask ... you know he loves you also Mira".
I rang Darren and asked and he agreed it would be ok and said keep it until Sunday because I am sure I will be allowed to drive after my hospital visit Friday, then we can swap cars, tell Mira good-luck and I will miss her and yes I do love her also lol, maybe we can all get together again for Christmas before we have to travel our separate paths.
(included a picture Darren sent to me from his old hard-drive, he said I have a picture of You and I together in 2015 from the orchard, enjoy lol.) hugs to Darren that is funny.
picture 2; Happy Halloween! ... yes we decided to go as K.I.S... sadly without Darren as planned then we would have gone as K.I.S.S ... our orchard manager Louie the Spanish man gave us a lift into Shepparton and we are to meet Daniel here to go trick or treating, he is a little late ... Evelyn just got a message "on my way be there soon just finished putting on my make-up lol love Daniel" ... #1 excuse by girls for being late for date, had to put on my make-up.
picture 3; Evelyn said " I will send him a quick picture showing all our make-up and we were on time, boys don't wear make-up and should not be late" ...
picture 4; Boys don't wear make-up unless they are a special type of boy ... Mira is in shock, I am laughing so much and Evelyn is hugging Daniel which we all wanted to do for wearing make-up to complete our Halloween group K.I.S.S and Daniel said "I have one more surprise, special number plates for Halloween, I will just put them on and we can go trick or treating.
picture 5; While Daniel is putting on rear number plate I get a look at the cool engine in his 1966 HR Holden sedan.
Quote: "I have always loved the power of a bent 8, but my time in Australia has warmed me to the idea I might enjoy a straight 6, it has a very nice sound especially with 3 carburetors feeding it lots of fuel, makes a lovely deep throaty rumbling sound with a lumpy cam." Un-quote.
picture 6; Just as we were all getting into car to go trick or treating I heard a lovely sound that certainly caught my attention and I had to turn and look.
picture 7; It's Darren haha, Oh My God and the very famous and illusive "Vantasy" that haunted me for many years when I was un-sure it was real and not something I had dreamed, I was sure I had used Vantasy in Daz studio but somehow it got lost, I searched everywhere trying find it and was sure Daz had had it, Vantasy is in a Girl8 promotion image, but I cannot find on Daz site, I tried internet search and it has lots of dead links, maybe I never find Vantasy again, finally success and I find Vantasy at (Renderhub) so I have it saved in many locations so never get lost again.
Why is Darren in Vantasy? it was going to be another surprise that he had planned for trick or treating, this is a real custom van that you can hire for special occasions and have vinyl wrapped to suit occasion, I love it and have to do my best (or worst) air guitar pose to celebrate, Darren has a big pumpkin bucket of candy for us and would love to stay but sadly must return home and rest, thank-you, thank-you, thank-you.
picture 8; House number 1 and I do not know why I am sneaking up on it, my heart is racing from seeing Vantasy and a little nervous about knocking on a strangers door and asking trick or treat, what might happen??? ...
It is Tuesday and I have 2 computers going full speed to get as many Halloween pictures done as I can, Wednesday is forecast for big thunder-storm and much more rain and if true I will get another day off to do more Halloween pictures, unless Evelyn and Myself are asked to work in packing shed some more. (I cannot have too many days off, my working VISA has to show a certain number of signed work days or I will be in trouble)
Evelyn and Mira are in Melbourne again at Mira's new apartment, Evelyn will drive home alone today/tonight as Mira will start her new job Wednesday, good luck Mira you are loved and will be greatly missed until we can visit.
*Bonus I included a calendar for this month still have a few days to use it if you like.
#NO-AI I cannot use photos now it has AI added, I use a old program called Microsoft PhotoDraw 2000, it is on discs and never up-dates so no AI can be added.
Windows 11 wants to up-date again, I checked the page to see up-dates and yes it wants to add more AI, at bottom of page I ticked "Was this helpful" ... YES" and wrote comment "It was helpful and clearly if I up-date now I am inviting AI to wreck my computer, stop using AI it is bad". I have paused up-dates for now but that does not always stop Windows from up-dating...
