The Results Are In…

Posted on by

And so we wake this morning to the news that the Conservatives are in. And it seems the world and his wife have all written blog posts.  So here’s my two-pennies worth of thoughts. There have been countless tales of prophesied horror of what will happen if the Tories get in.  And I wonder how many of them will actually come true in the next 5 years. But if we go with the general consensus on Goode Olde Facebooke this morning (surely the font of all knowledge that is True and Reliable!) that the turnout for this election was 60%.  If you Continue Reading →

A writer’s dilemma.

Posted on by

Or maybe the title of this post should be “The dilemma a writer has, who has a slight case of OCD”. Wow.  I’ve sat and stared at that first line for nearly an hour.  It’s been so long since I’ve written that I feel hesitant to start.  The floodgates will open, and I’m not sure I wish to moderate all that will come out. Just another lesson in the life lesson that I am currently learning and practising a lot. Letting Go. I won’t join in with the thousands and do yet another parody of the recent Disney song, but Continue Reading →

Flower Moon

Posted on by

Hmph. It seems the moon tonight is not going to let me be an opportunistic photographer. No, if I want a decent picture of the moon in all her fabulous luminosity, with stormy clouds racing past her then tonight I must pay court. Set up tripod, put more than a simple nighty on and get outside and wait. Appreciate the waiting. But reality calls me otherwise. At a quarter past midnight my LO will be up in about 6 hours. Parents will arrive shortly after 10ish or thereabouts to do a bit of ‘fixing’ about the place and I’ve things Continue Reading →

A chat.

Posted on by

It’s been a busy few months.  But just today I could do with a chat with my Grandad. Not about anything in particular. Just to spend some time with him, sit and have a chat. I’d let myself in using the key. Shout hello as I cross the door. ‘Hallo’ would come the call more often as not from the kitchen. Sat on his perch, a customised stool, eating a sarnie of cheese or ham. Pouring a cuppa whilst he asks how I am. With one eye on the garden but both ears on me, his eyes twinkling as we Continue Reading →

Nearly Yearly Update!

Posted on by
Time

Hello world! Well I can’t believe nearly a year has gone by without me finding time to update my site.  But what a year its been. The last time I updated this was to post about getting what you want, or, more accurately how the Universe enables you to do things you’d really rather not, but actually you know you really have to face it.  A big toothache. Abscess… complicated by what I didn’t mention at the time… being pregnant! I can now state from experience, that having an abscess is far worse pain than giving birth – without drugs!

Getting what you asked for

Last night was quite eventful. And painful. It started on Monday evening if I’m honest, a nice cold blast of air hit a disaster zone of a broken tooth, and wham – face ache begins. It really starts to kick in through the day on Tuesday whilst at work, and then Tuesday evening it really starts to ramp up. Having fallen asleep on the sofa after tea I thought i might just be able to get to sleep. Apparently my pain levels had other ideas. As I laid down…. up went the pain a few more notches…. Tossing, turning – Continue Reading →

The year moves on…

Dawn and Sunrise

Slowly and surely the year moves onwards.  Well at the moment it feels slow and sure but then when I think about it, October 2010 doesn’t feel like 2 minutes ago. But here I find myself in February, it’s my Dad’s birthday tomorrow and I have a rather silly present for him.  The Open University course I was doing has just completed, and I find now, that I may be eligible for financial assistance to do the next one!  But that’s ok – it doesn’t start until October 2011! (Which definitely seems a long way away!) I also just thought Continue Reading →

Pure Energy

Posted on by

I’ve just had a thought whilst I was in the shower. It’s a good place to think I find. And a quote I heard a quote the other day went through my thoughts. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. If, in our ‘truest’ form we are purely energy, existing everywhere and everywhen, is there any wonder then that we can “mess up” so spectacularly as we are ‘zoomed in’ to the detail of the level of this life we are currently experiencing? It’s like doing a jigsaw puzzle, but without the picture on the lid. And just to Continue Reading →

Time – it’s all about time

Posted on by

I find that I’m in a strange place here tonight.  It’s almost like I can look back on the events of my past to this point now, and see where I’ve pushed things to happen. Making things happen for you is all well and good – there is no doubting that.  But there is also a time, where, well, time is needed.  Patience required.  Normally though, we have to be well past the event to recognise that maybe a little time was required.  It’s called ‘hindsight’.  The sight behind. A look in the Online Entemology dictionary tells us that “hindsight Continue Reading →

Gardening and Grief

Posted on by

It’s just been snowing here.  So I went into the conservatory and stood at the back door to watch it snow. Looking out at the garden, I notice there’s a change in me.  Normally, it will get to the month of February and I will start getting fractious and eager to get out into the garden and start ‘doing’.   Tidying up the winter ravages, cutting back the annual plants, and smiling at seeing the snowdrops peek through the soil. This year – it’s different.  But then so much has changed in the past few months that it’s maybe just those Continue Reading →
