Easter weekend is here

It’s Easter weekend and I’m very happy right now. I also have a week off work which means no work for 10 days. For the next two days I have a young man coming to stay over. My grandson which I am totally looking forward to. After that, my world is my oyster and I [...]

Still waiting?

Still waiting?

You know how we, as women, tend to live in “waiting around mode”? Waiting for the right moment, the right sign, or that perfect alignment of the universe. “I’ll take that trip once I’ve saved enough or lost that weight.” And don’t get me started on waiting for someone else to make the first move, [...]

Time to recharge

Time to recharge

I just need to sit under the trees and drink a beer some days. Sometimes in life we get so engrossed in the day to day, we forget that we need to take more moments to just think about ourselves and recharge our energies. Connect with people and forge relationships. My energies have been on [...]

Sunday

What a beautiful Sunday it has been here in Kent 🇬🇧 today. It was chilly but so beautiful I felt that spring in my step to do spring stuff like spring cleaning and buying new cloths and furniture.

My body aches, my thoughts fog, and everything around me feels out of [...]

The £240 Energy Bill: Comedy or Tragedy? 

The £240 Energy Bill: Comedy or Tragedy? 

You know that moment in a movie where the hero discovers the villain’s evil lair and gasps at the sheer scale of chaos? That was me this today, staring at my new energy bill: **£240**. A month. I mean, what are they fuelling as it’s not my place at that amount? The Death Star? Because [...]

The day

The day

Today was a real struggle all day long. Some days I just wonder at how as human beings we manage to juggle so many tasks in a day. The more we do the more it’s accepted and expected you continue at that momentum. Today I asked myself, who really acknowledges that and considers your actual [...]
