A time to reflect

[MadDuck]

Yep its Xmas and Santa will soon be passing his way around the country.

So what have you done this year? Are you happy or do you have have regrets?

I have helped a mate through medical studies with some cash injection ... with little or no thanks....actually NO thanks. I have pit crewed for a team off here with lots of thanks and enjoyed the time beyond belief and hope it continues.

I have donated to a race team off KB and feel good about it. And that will continue until....well I am sure the bank will come after me.

I have been accused of being racist on the site for no good reason oh and a bitch and yet last weekend at Taupo that kinda made me remember the good ole KB.

To those been around a while and know me ...Merry Xmas guys and look forward to seeing you out there in 2006.

Merry Christmas Duck... this year my family and I applied for, and were granted residency here, we moved half way around the world, I got my bike licence and am now a member of this community.

God bless us every one!

This year I have done what many have done at some stage: thats chucking the cage and have bought my FIRST bike. I have been fortunate to associate myself with heaps of like minded (or nearly) motorcyclists through this forum. Whats more I LOOK FORWARD to meeting people that I dont really know. I have increased my circle of friends 10 fold...and I reckon thats fantastic!

Is that what youre after MD?

Welcome to NZ and KB Weasel. And yes Skelsatr you hit the nail....so as to speak

And how remiss of me ..thanks to PaulNZ for helping me through a bit of a tough time.

[skelstar]

Ive heard/read a couple of stories about KBers helping fellow KBers out of a 'tough time'...from completely different regions! Makes you feel good about the whole community. Not looking for the story or explain...just mentioning it.

Bought a bike, which is now praked up, waiting for my foot to heal, watched the gargre and the wood shed accumulate lots more bikes (I'm sure they breed when your back is turned), met some cool new people, had my first trip overseas, worked and studied. Yeah, roll on 2006. Merry Christmas everyone and a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year to you all

(I'm sure they breed when your back is turned)

So you have that problem too?

[yungatart]

So you have that problem too?

It appears to be a phenomenon associated only with the buckets tho. I have NO idea why??

This time last year we had our offer on a house accepted,so that was pretty damn good.Then several months of hard work doing it up,the shift....the first part of 05 was pretty stressful.But we are now freehold and enjoying the quiet life in Huntly.I sold some bikes near and dear to me in dec 04 to fund another bike....and saw my hard won funds disapearing into the house....but I was able to pick up a DT230 that I had set my eye apon.I can now ride it with some of the best roads in the country right on my doorstep.

To balance that....there is always balance,right? This has been my worst year after 10 yrs in business,and going into this Xmas break is touch and go....hard to believe I'm deep in the poo from an overload in work....we have a backlog and can't clear the work to bring in the money.I want to sell up next year,but if I can't turn it around I'll have nothing to sell...next years project.

Well here I am at work, and I started reflecting on the year that has gone. Christmas day last year I was injured and spending Christmas day on my own. I spent the day on KB increasing my post count with a multitude of mindless drivel.

This Christmas will be quite different. I finish my shift at 6am, head home for a sleep and then get to spend time with the man I love and some really good friends. And there will be pressies involved this year too! Woohoo!

It's been an interesting year with lots of ups and downs, but the ups have become more frequent and life is feeling pretty good at the moment.

I found love on KB and have made some amazing friendships. I feel truly lucky.

Here's hoping you all have a great Christmas and new year, and 2006 is a fabulous year for you.

Met a swag more friends through KB, got a 'thank you' from a KBer who I gave advice to quite some time ago, very touching and humbling.

Rode my H-D a few km

Went to the USA and achieved another 'dream' in my life - bought a Yank-tank cage.

Got even more broke

Stayed married to CB

Stayed alive

Stayed happy.

Next year is going to be even better.....

our second child was born, little scarlett is 4 months old now.
i got my dream job and am loving it
i'm more tired than i've ever been (2 kids under 2)
sampson started talking (he's eyeing the christmas presents saying "wow!" as i type this)
doesn't sound like much - but that's my world right now.
merry xmas all - KB has kept me sane at times over the year.

Two of the worst years in my life, just one problem after another. But hey. What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, right? Came close but not quite. Still don't feel stronger for it. But heres hoping santa snuck me a "good year" gift for next year. We shall see.

Merry Christmas all and all the best for the year to come.
