Celebrating Family

This past weekend was just so fabulous. My daughter Caitlin and I flew down to George from Cape Town at an obscenely early time of day last Thursday morning so that we could spend that whole day with Lily, Amelia and Josh. We woke at 4am and just threw on warm clothes and left as …

Hurray for Hollywood

On Saturday Norm and I attended the matinee production of 'Hollywood'. I love the venue Theatre on the Bay and often just book tickets on a whim which is what I did with this show. I knew nothing about the show and when we arrived we were baffled by the fact that there were young …

Mellow Yellow

Every single thing seems to create a debate or an argument these days, including something as innocuous as Mother's Day. Women were complaining that no one recognises them on the day, some were complaining that it is wrong that it is only one day where mom's get treated nicely, some were sad because their mom …

The Best Medicine

For such a hermit I have been really busy, but not so busy that it was too exhausting, the nice thing about a 4 day weekend is you can fit in recovery time. The remainder of Easter weekend was lovely. At lunch time last Saturday I went to a friend's for her birthday celebration and …

Adjustment of Intentions

I cannot believe that we are mid-January already and that I have now been back at the client for a full week. I had my contract extended another 6 months and I am really happy about that, I adore this client. I would be delighted to stay until I retire at 65 in a few …

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 …

Geese and Bunnies

We have all noted how time seems to have no meaning when there is a baby in the house. Lily has to feed Amelia around the clock and sometimes it seems like we do not know what day it is. In fact, in our Wednesday morning stand up I said 'Happy Friday!' which got me …

Venus and the Disney Princess

On the night I arrived in George, on our way home from the airport, we thought we saw the North Star. It was reflecting so brightly that I thought it was actually the moon, but it was a full moon that night, not a crescent and I could see Mr Moon on the other side …

Who’s Zoomin Who

What a hectic chaotic week! I mentioned last week that I had a Shaman class in Scarborough on Sunday, but there were a few sick members and I thought we agreed to do it via Zoom for those who did not want to come in for whatever reason so I chose to zoom to save …

Rumination

The only bad thing about a 3 day weekend is how long the following week feels, but the long weekend itself was lovely. A nice mix of friends, family, outings and visits. Last Sunday it was Father's Day so Caitlin came to collect us and we went off to the Hout Bay Harbour Market. https://www.instagram.com/p/CtoVB65qpM8/
