If this was an olympic sport, I would definitely have a place on the podium. I have an incredible ability to over-analyse conversations, messages, phone calls like no other human I have ever met. The reactions I have had from people when I tell them what I thought they meant versus what they actually... Continue Reading →
Two Wise Men & A Prison Officer
Long overdue. I couldn't see what was right in front of me. In my (sometimes futile) attempt to become a better human being, and ultimately a better Grandmother, I have been exploring. I have tiptoed around 'The Law of Attraction' and discovered the power of the subconscious mind. I have read testimonies of people whose... Continue Reading →

I’ve been married a while and this is the 30th Valentine’s Day that I have shared with Michael. I remember our first. I... Continue Reading →

Silk purse, sow’s ear
My relationship with this current blog post can only be described as somewhat strained. I wasn't getting anything out of it, and it didn't understand what I needed. I had even threatened to leave it on more than one occasion but it fell on deaf ears. There I was, declaring my intention to 'just... Continue Reading →

What a difference a blog makes
The period between Christmas and New Year is notorious for being a bit of a nothing time unless you are shopping in the sales. Perfect opportunity then for me to get writing. This is 3 blogs in one; a brief look back, a look ahead to the new year and a bit about my... Continue Reading →

A new tradition
With my birthday just days after Christmas, I have fallen into a 'tradition' of spending most of it looking back over the past year with regret. I celebrate with my family but when everyone is in bed I spend hours visiting the dark places in my mind and fill it with negative thoughts and... Continue Reading →
