Covid is over and "Let Me Write It" is back writing mini bios for senior men and women or couples.
It will entail 5-7 interviews, proof reading and old photos. - The bio will include approximately 15 pages of your life or more if a couple and I will reproduce your photos integrated into the profile and on completion presented in a looseleaf book form. This is time consuming and may take up to 4 -6 weeks to complete. The most common comment from sons, daughters, grandchildren and friends after reading bio is " I didn't know that." Be remembered with a mini biography. --- Excellent family or friend gift - Don't let this opportunity go by, think of those who are gone you wished you knew more about but no one to ask.
Very reasonable -
Please call 705-292-7454 for more information or to book a mini bio appointment - thank you

Am I Co-Dependent?
Patterns and Characteristics of CodependenceThe following checklist is offered as a tool to aid in self-evaluation.

• pull people toward them, but when others get close, push them away.
• refuse to give up their self-will to avoid surrendering to a power greater than themselves.
• believe displays of emotion are a sign of weakness.
• withhold expressions of appreciation.The Twelve Promises© of Co-Dependents Anonymous
I can expect a miraculous change in my life by working the program of Co-Dependents Anonymous.
As I make an honest effort to work the Twelve Steps and follow the Twelve Traditions.I will know a new sense of belonging. The feeling of emptiness and loneliness will disappear.
I am no longer controlled by my fears. I overcome my fears and act with courage, integrity and dignity.
I know a new freedom.
I release myself from worry, guilt, and regret about my past and present. I am aware enough not to repeat it.
I know a new love and acceptance of myself and others. I feel genuinely lovable, loving and loved.
I learn to see myself as equal to others. My new and renewed relationships are all with equal partners.
I am capable of developing and maintaining healthy and loving relationships. The need to control and manipulate others will disappear as I learn to trust those who are trustworthy.
I learn that it is possible to mend - to become more loving, intimate and supportive. I have the choice of communicating with my family in a way which is safe for me and respectful of them.
I acknowledge that I am a unique and precious creation.
I no longer need to rely solely on others to provide my sense of worth.
I trust a guidance I receive from my higher power and come to believe in my own capabilities.
I gradually experience serenity, strength, and spiritual growth in my daily life.

The Peterborough Racing Pigeon Club is looking for new members. The prime purpose of the club is to provide transportation of homing pigeons to various locations for training and races. In addition social gatherings for camaraderie will be side benefits. For information please reply to this ad or text me at 705-957-2420. Cheers! Bill
Pigeon racing is a hobby that the whole family can enjoy. It encourages and enhances responsibility, builds skills in nutrition, strategic thinking, carpentry, animal care, relationship building, team work and so many other values that video games don't offer. It also provides the opportunity to watch beautiful birds go about their interesting family lives.

Hi,
My name is Conrad.
I'd like to meet up with other musicians and play. I've played by myself for a few years and am now looking to connect with other enthusiastic musicians about it. I would say I'm an advanced beginner.
I wish I could play guitar like this:
Red Clay -Jack Wilkins
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9W7hB7lGN0
Suspicious Child, Growing Up - Volker Kriegel
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2JsjugUqCA
Maggot Brain - Funkadelic
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOKn33-q4Ao
Jimi Hendrix
Gilmour
Sadly I am NOWHERE near this skilled. If you know how to play like this I would love to chat with you.
Other songs I like:
Waiting around to die - Townes Van Zandt
Please don't step on my rainbow - the cleaners from venus
Straight to hell - the clash
Werewolf - Michael Hurley
Ghost song - Jim Morison
The girl in the yellow dress - david gilmour
Strawberry Fields Forever - Richie Havens cover
I have no experience playing with others - aside from a couple years in grade school bands - but I think and hope that I could catch on quickly. I have the time and inspiration to pursue music now, and I think the next step for my musical adventure is to connect with others. I am not sure how that looks - so please send me a message and we can go from there. Thanks. I'm a 28 year old man.
Play on,
Conrad

Extending the idea to those whom have awakened to see what is coming. Discussions, knowledge and skill exchange along with practical sessions in urban and bush settings. Ultimately thinking of establishing large co-operative land parcel purchase for each "member" to develop a homestead / survival bunker / off grid retreat / sustainable campground , etc...... or whatever you deem necessary within the new world reset. Encouraging all manner of skills and levels of thinking to involve themselves and their families/ friends to become less reliant on the cyclic servitude scam. Every class, creed, race, religion, colour welcome....so long as everyone contributes and is willing to learn.
I've years worth of seasoned bush work behind me and still have much to gain from different views and methods. Everyone from Jack and Jill of all trades to technology savvy wizards are welcome to look outside the ever tightening box and help each other to communicate, teach, learn and build a life that resembles something other than being completely controlled by Big Brother and the Holding Company (unfortunately, I'm not talking about Janis Joplin).
My interest is in having everyone organize, plan and execute action in nothing less than practical and efficient terms. The time for talking and dreaming about escaping the imprisoning grasp of cardboard cookie cutter stick frame homes with high mortgages and perpetual utility bills that squander our freedom, has passed; the time to begin acting toward change was long past many moons ago as well but it's not too late, not quite yet.Any manner of practical skill and capability to teach cooking, tailoring, writing, carpentry, hunting, sustainable hybrid food production disciplines such as permaculture, aquaponics, agro-forestry, animal husbandry, plant breeding and propagation, greenhouse management, story telling, firearms, wild crafting, prospecting, sustainable land/ water management, grey water systems, solar, alternative construction, child care, bush survival, botany.....for that matter, any science, arts and trades disciplines. Don't think this is all hippy dippy eyes wide woke running off to hide in the woods Waco style because those familiar with business operations and economics within the new gig economy are certainly welcome as well. Future employment and income generating of fiat currency/credit/ barter and trade from the grey zone is encouraged to assist with long term health and financial planning concerns as we age and for the continued security of our children and future generations that will follow in our footsteps.
No public disclosure. Anonymity guaranteed and expected in return. Old, young, single, families, everyone welcome. And no, this is not some screwed up cult, we've all been living in the biggest one for far too long already.
Peterborough area based; however, global networks encouraged. Let's do this. Think about it, as a rough and dirty example: $5,000 each or per couple X 10 or 20 = a big chunk of unincorporated land north, down east or out west to the tune of 100 to 200 plus acres all day long. Everyone on the deed with equalized shares of property ownership along with a simple agreement to pay for an independent severance survey (if applicable) when and if someone decides to sell outside of the proportional value assessment conducted by the then remaining members group holding the deed. Just a hypothetical example of one simple idea to get the cogs turning. Incorporation is an option if it is deemed to simplify the long term goals.
We'll all need to chat offline further.
Mahalo.

Hi.
I would like to find some more TRUE Christians.
Tired of 'church-goers', pretenders, fakes, liars...
Do you LOVE God's word and CONTINUE in it? (John 8:31-32)
Do you accept it as the FINAL AUTHORITY in all matters of FAITH (what you believe) and PRACTICE (what you do)?
The fact is, that it IS the FINAL authority - whether you accept it as that yet, or not.
Do you love to search the scriptures daily whether (those) things were so? (Acts 17:11)
Do you PROVE ALL THINGS, HOLD FAST THAT WHICH IS GOOD? (I Thess 5:21)
In other words, are you REALLY a Christian - a TRUE Christian?
If so (or if you WANT to be a REAL Christian, a TRUE Christian) then give me a shout - by email or phone. phone is 705-286-3039
Thank you.
Mike.
