In another life

In another life

Check me out in this photo with enthusiasm that knows no bounds. (That was Friday! ) It’s Monday after work now and I’m laying on my sofa feeling exhausted as though the weekend never happened. Honestly I often suggest to myself that in my next life I need to make some adjustments so that I [...]

ON THE RUN

ON THE RUN

I’m on the run. I’m on the run from debt-collecting hounds, Chasing me down for their my measly pounds. A Beagle in bifocals, a Doberman’s growl They’re sniffing for cash, and they’re on the prowl. I toss them a bone, then flee out of sight Outrunning these debt dogs… at least for tonight! Halloween the [...]

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

It’s dark and dismal and feels a little bit chilly in my apartment. Wonderful!!! Oh I can feel Autumn is coming. Hallelujah!! I’m fed up with summer. Let’s face it, it’s been rather up and down and nothing to write home about. I’ve been more home bound this summer due to my ill cat. Not [...]

My addiction

My addiction

Get the sweets in me!!! Did you know I love sweets. OMG love them. But also not supposed to really have them because of being diabetic. Yet last week I’m stressed and who ate all the sweets? I did. The shame I feel at my lack of control today is in abundance. I’m like a [...]

Up standing again

Up standing again

I’m standing again as I’m in limbo right now. I’m waiting for Tippi to let go and pass. She wants to be around me and last few nights I’ve been sleeping on the sofa with her because she doesn’t want to sleep in my bed. Last night she kept wanting to lay on me so [...]

Always say “Thank you”. It costs nothing

Always say “Thank you”. It costs nothing

Here I stand. Looking out at the world and wondering what road my truck needs to go down. (I can’t drive mind you) It’s just a coin of phrase with my mind being as it is. Full of so many ideas and dreams that I wonder at what point I will take chances. I mean [...]

My imagination

My imagination

I fell asleep after work and woke up over an hour later today. Is this it? Have I reached being old? Honestly I am feeling this must be it. Old age. However, why is it I look in the mirror and think I still have life in me like a millennial? I still laugh at [...]

Kakhanded me

Kakhanded me

I need to redecorate. Like I really do. However, it’s never so simple as picking up a paintbrush when you are as kakhanded as I am. Last time I painted a wall, I painted parts of the ceiling, the carpet and doors, that is how bad I am. I have great taste in paint colours [...]

Scrubbing hands

Scrubbing hands

I really do need to give my nails a good seeing to. If only it was a case of sitting in a chair, clicking a button and it’s done. Like in the Chez Moi animations for these chairs. It actually requires me to be bothered and start the process and I easily get distracted and [...]
