I hope you mean without hurting. LOL

Bounds over to @Dulcet pouncing on him, huggling and licking him. Glad you could make it back! Nope, no new rules, outside of that fact that for the time being, we don't have an 18+ forum. Not saying we will or won't have one in the future. The important thing is that you feel at home and enjoy yourself.

My plan is we all take turns recommending a book with possibly a download for the audio book and/or ebook for everybody. Give people say a month to read/listen to said book and then a week to discuss it. @Moonhawk, these ideas aren't set in stone, and I'm more than happy to discuss them with people to come up with a plan.

Though, I was talking to @hirondelleabout this last night, and I think it would be a good idea, but to keep it as simple as possible, and to keep the cost down. I also decided to make it a poll so people can vote on it.

No way! He makes the best use of the faculties he has.

Nooooooooo

I loved yoga, and I do recommend it for people, I just struggle with a lot of the mentality that I have seen in yoga, which I really became aware of while I was on my teacher training course, one of the things they constantly stressed that it wasn't about the pose, but of all the instructors I know and have met and seen, they constantly make it about the pose. I just found it a bit hypocritical. That being said, when I was studying karate, I instituted some yoga postures into the warm up at the beginning of the class which my Sensei added to the class. Yoga is a good thing for mind and body as long as you don't make it about the pose. Be aware of your body and what it can do. Push your body, but push it to the extremes. Take it a step at a time.

@foxYeah, kind of, lol. I'm only doing that, because they way they break up the payments works well for us. I've looked at a few different courses over the time we've been here, and it's hard because they are quite expensive, and I have other priorities money wise. Also, from what I've heard, this course has just recently been internationally recognized as an international BA.

LOL, that is really kind of creepy. LOL.

LMAO, that's exactly what I was thinking @Ren. That's awesome!

Beautiful animals all! This is our one cats, Roso. She made me fall in love with her the first day we met her, when I was holding her and she looked up at me with this face full of love. This isn't that picture, but you can see how beautiful she is. Next is our lovely babydog, Spike. Talk about smart, lol, he can actually count. When I'm eating my pizza, he knows how many pieces I eat, he will get out of his bed to get his piece of crust. We found this out one time when I had an extra piece, from @hirondelle, and he got out of his bed before I was finished. Lastly is the Queen of the house, Lily. She is the one in charge of everybody, and she isn't afraid to let you know. LOL. We love all three, they are our babies.

LOL, Yeah. LOL.

LOL, Who knows. Maybe we will do something again in the future. Nothing is set in stone.

Every time I go back to the States to visit, I love seeing my family and my kids, but I'm always wanting to come back to Thailand. I do love it here. Of course, a lot of that has to do with @hirondelle

Ah ok. That area of the coast. Now I understand. OK. LOL. When are you coming to visit? LOL.

Yes please. I remember some of those. LOL.

I'm not studying right now, but I'm looking at doing a BA in TESOL (Teaching English as a Second Language). It will help me later. I think. I can do it spread out during our holidays, or I can do it on evenings and weekends. I was going to start during this break here in October, but as we just got a bike again, I've decided to put it off until maybe my big holiday in April.

Depends on where on the coast you are. There are areas of the coast get super hot and muggy. when I first moved here, the heat was a bit of a killer. I never used to wear shorts, but now, when I can, I usually wear shorts, and I've gotten used to the heat a bit.

I'm so glad you all are loving it. Thank you all.

@RenI'll have a look at font colors and whatnot to see if it can be changed. @RedlyI will look into the color thingy. We are looking at adding a header to The Lake and maybe changing some of the buttons. I love that you all are loving the themes.

Hi @Songmistress Hi @hirondelle Hi @Kenai Hi @fox Hi @Kethlia Hi @Phoenix I guess it does look weird.

I laugh at you all complaining of the heat. You need to come here and see what heat can really be like. We are getting ready to head into our cool season, which I'm kind of looking forward to. I think last year it was like for 2 weeks, but I'm hoping it will be like when I first moved here, which was like for a few months. In Bangkok, it doesn't get that cold, something like 20oC (68oF), but when we lived in Chiang Mai, I remember morning at something like 12oC (53oF), which when you're riding a motorcycle at 7 in the morning with a short sleeve shirt on when you aren't used to that temp can be damn cold! LOL.

Great topic @fox! It's interesting to see how your journey has progressed, especially since I've known you. As for me, I'm still teaching. I've been in the same school for about 5 years now. The school sometimes isn't so good, but I love the students, and I love teaching them. I teach 1st, 2nd and 3rd graders. I have also recently become the Admin for the Siam Hockey League here in Bangkok, and I do a lot for them, like I rebuilt their website, and I do all the emailing and during the season I will be doing all the stats and interviewing all the players of the game and also doing a news show. That's going to be a lot. As for what I would like to do, like @hirondelleI would like to have a bit of a passive income either from things I've written or whatever, just to hopefully free up some more time to do different things.

@Deanohas been kind of a lerker here since 2.0. We met at the Invision Systems Community when we were both posting in a few threads over there. @Kentis @Spyder, and I need to take care of that, LOL. @Rogermoith and Nita, I'm not sure who they are, I'll have to look into that. @Dr.D is a friend of mine from when I was a kid, we met when we were professional wrestlers.
