A Little Shift to the Left

You know when you were a kid and you were on holiday and you had that 'summer feeling' where your skin felt salty and tight from chlorine or sea water? Sitting with damp swimsuits on the chair cushions and knowing you will regret it later after you have changed and you get your new clothes …

Ginger and Spice and Everything Nice

Everyone knows what animal lovers we are and how much we adore our dogs. These days I mostly post about Finn as he is the most rambunctious and amusing but Pixie and Panda, our geriatric Pomeranians, are both so old and cost a bomb in medications but we adore them none the less. Pixie was …

A Doe, A Deer

We had such an amazing holiday with my mom in the US. The weather was mild and there was not much rain and we spent most of the time just hanging out together, but I also got to see a lot of family and friends. We arrived on Friday the 15th of December which was …

Orphans of Consciousness

Norm and I were treated to the most amazing dinner cooked by our son in law Wes. Caitlin and Wes had been wanting to thank us for the dinner at The Pier that they ended up going to solo as I was ill and Norm was away. I had already paid the deposit so that …

Off Balance & Out of Alignment

Being Vulnerable

Keep Moving

As much as I love being back in my own home, I really miss waking up to little Millie's gorgeous smile. It is impossible to be sad or unhappy with that little bundle grinning her cheeky toothless smile. She has this way of staring straight into your eyes with such intensity, it feels like she …

Lessons from Drag Queens

Anyone who knows me well knows that I am slightly obsessed with Drag Queens. I have just finished watching Werq The World. The messages were that you have to accept yourself, accept that you are who you are and to not care what anyone else thinks. Accept that you are the best version of yourself …

The Golden Thread

Today we had our Women's Soul Circle. Usually I just get up, get dressed and go but as Norm is still away I had to wake early enough to give Panda his meds so that he had an hour for them to settle before he ate, feed them all (standing over them the entire time …

Integration

Last week I mentioned that I had been off of work with gastro the previous Friday, but when I posted on Saturday I was feeling so much better that I had dinner that night thinking it was a 12 hour bug and I was recovered. Unfortunately, I woke in the middle of the night again …
