Storms

Storms

When all is said and done. Just flop in a chair, turn on the fire and relax!!!!! There’s a storm here in the U.K. today and I figure that’s all we can really do in times of unease. Kick up, batten down the hatches and relax. But, looking out my window today, it’s just like [...]

“Appear”

“Appear”

Some days I just disappear into my own thoughts. Other days those thoughts are expressed and become words. Today, I’m just lost in my thoughts as I contemplate the current war right now in Israel/Palestine. If you recall, I’m due to go on 25 November. It’s been all year in the arranging. I’m in a [...]

The Chonk Connoisseur

The Chonk Connoisseur

I’m definitely not the chonk in this scenario! I’ve been way off form this week feeling up and down nausea and wanting to chunder. I muddled through a few days then it hit like a brick. Chunder found me. Then add to that “through the eye of a needle” then you know what I’m talking [...]

Spooky Saturday

Gorgeous or Hagrid?

Gorgeous or Hagrid?

Let me confess something. I've spent hours perfecting my Second Life avatar, transforming myself into a dazzling gorgeous bombshell.

It's a peculiar world where I feel stunning as an avatar while my real self is embracing the inner Hagrid in mucky nightie [...]

Ooops never saw that coming!

Ooops never saw that coming!

Have you ever had one of those weeks where you're slogging through Monday, trudging through Tuesday, plodding through Wednesday, and then suddenly, BAM! It's Friday! If you're nodding your head in agreement, welcome to the club. We've all been there. Friday has a knack for sneaking up on us like a ninja in the night, [...]

Make the most of it

Make the most of it

Happy Sunday today. I’m on my sofa in exhaustion as I had a late night last night with a handsome young man, cuddled up on the sofa eating a takeaway and just having great conversation and drinking. Water and milkshakes that is! I woke up this morning with a smile and made us toast and [...]

The padded cell

The padded cell

Lets get real here, working from home on a Friday afternoon may seem like a recipe for monotony, but it's far from it. I've embraced the madness, and I wear my Friday lunatic badge with pride. I’m literally a lunatic and hey it’s ok. It’s now Friday evening and I was so glad to shut [...]

This will be me

This will be me

This will be me on Saturday 25 November. All dressed up, case in hand as I fly out to Palestine for a week. It’s not a holiday. I’ll be part of a delegation sent to share information about work practices etc and get to learn about the reality of what life is like. Tickets are [...]
