I was just wasching the weather channel and they were telling about and awful wild fire in Victoria area of Australia that has already claimed about 90 lives. I hope and pray that stevie is alright and not in any danger from those vicious wild fires. I have to admit that I have been spending way to much time at WW lately trying to get at least decent enough at a game or two to earn points for my pet and haven't spent enough time here to know if stevie_g has checked in. My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.

Let's all pray the stevie and family are all safe! My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.

The other heart was given to another for us to find.

This fire is devistating both humans and wild life and is distroying a large area there in Australia. I do so wish that stevie_ g would check in soon. I am really concerned. My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.

But anyone living there knows what a tender box it can be in Australia at this time of the year anyway. If they did deliberately set a fire I hope and pray they find out who did it and give them the maximum punishment. My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.

If only I had his address or phone number I would get my friend to see if he could find out any info on him. I know that my friend lives in the Queensland but still he would have better access to acquiring info on him over there. Sort of like my friend having someone else in the States look me up when we have been hit by a hurricane. My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.

Thorny is right, there is probably no internet because of all the downed lines---and the last thing on his mind right now would be to come here and tell us he's okay.

I guess it is just my old Mothers syndrome. My son says I need to chill out more because every time I am expecting to hear from him and he gets busy and forgets to call me for a week or two then I began to imagine all sorts of bad things that could have happened to him and stay on pins and needles until he does call and checks in with me. My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.
