o0o I have just recently come across a post that I obviously began somewhere in the first half of this year, but which for some reason I did not get around to finishing. I think that it may have morphed somewhat and become a post on another site, but I have decided that I shall include it […]
o0o When you’re feeling a bit flat, one of the very best therapies is to get outside. If you can plant something and immerse your hands in the dirt, it makes the experience that much better for you!! There has been so much evidence around the massive improvements in mental health for those […]
o0o Again – it feels like the Universe is throwing me yet another lesson – because no matter how many it has thrown me in the last couple of years – I keep pushing the lessons to the side – and blindly bumbling on – seemingly oblivious to what is trying to be taught to […]
o0o I feel so at odds of late. In the quiet times when I am by myself, and I am able to spend time being introspective – I can see that I am in a season of a very negative headspace – and have been unable to shift it… I teeter between feelings of […]
o0o Its been a wild ride for the last few weeks, and a ride that I’m still in the midst of, and I’ve gotta say – that some of it I’m not lovin’ so much!! I’d been starting to ‘spiral’ a bit after I last posted, but then a series of events happened […]
o0o It’s been a while since my last post (about 6 weeks or so), and I apologize if you’ve missed me – although it is the season for most people of busy-ness and stress – so it’s probably the case that you haven’t even noticed I haven’t been around…! :)) In days blog, I’m […]
o0o SO…here I am once again sitting at the airport, waiting to get on a flight and I’m southbound again to go and help with tidying up yet more affairs of my deceased Mumma and her very-much-alive Hubby (TnT) – who is now in Aged Care. Its been a pretty stressful time for the […]
o0o Breathe. You’re going to be okay.
o0o So after talking about how difficult making friends is – and how bloody rubbish I am at it – a strange thing happened the week before last… I had two ‘coffee dates’!! One Friday – one the following Monday. The one on Friday was the second time I have had coffee with this […]
Strength doesn’t come from what you can do; it comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn’t do. When you are at your lowest point, you are open to the greatest positive change. Happiness is not the absence of problems, but the strength to deal with them. The strongest people are […]
. I have been sitting here alternately crying and grinning like a twit. Today has been a very momentous day in Australia… For the last three months, our country has been ‘experiencing’ a
. This morning I had a major anxiety filled panic-ridden flipout… But first a bit of background. Our youngest daughter is getting married in eight days. yes – EIGHT! Now I am already having a bit of a belly-wobble about what may or may not be expected of us (well ME) on the actual day, […]
. Today is different. Today I got out of bed quite well rested. I had a really decent sleep last night, because it rained through the night, and i always sleep soooo much better when it rains. I have also taken a fortnight off work – which actually winds up being 18 days – […]
o0o I am SO damn frustrated and cranky today!!! There are a few things that have ‘led’ me here – but I guess the main one is fear and concern for my Family…. My sister, nephew, his wife and their two kids live in the BVI, and hurricane Irma has just gone through, and absolutely […]
Its been a damp drizzly cold morning, so I decided to drag out the sewing machine and knock up a few things with some “leftovers”. First up was a pair of old cotton curtains that have seen better days, and are not longer of use in keeping the heat/cold out of the house, so they […]
. Most of my life has been spent trying to shrink myself. Trying to become smaller. Quieter. Less sensitive. Less opinionated. Less needy.
. Who gives a crap?
