This week has rattled past, I've been so busy. Norm has his board still here from the UK and we have seen very little of him, he warned me he would be unavailable this week so I planned accordingly. Tuesday I went to see my myosteopath who worked out the pain I've been having in …

Puppies and Powers
The last week has been both incredibly stressful and incredibly amazing. Last Sunday while out walking my husband and our dogs were attacked by one of our neighbour’s dog. Our dogs were on leads, walking on the road. Their dogs were off lead and ran out of their own garden and their big dog picked …
Dim all the lights sweet darlin
Friday night and I'm sitting mostly in the dark, the room beautifully lit by candlelight everything looking soft. It's pouring rain outside and has been raining sheets of water since this afternoon. The entire road is underwater, so much so that I had to leave my car in the city as I've just had new …
Party to the Mex
I had my minor procedure last Wednesday. I was such a bag of nerves and in a state of panic. Luckily I had Lily with me to distract me with silliness like photos. When we arrived at the clinic it was raining and we had to park miles away. But as we started trotting in, …

They both look very adorable in their onesies. But I am probably a bit prejudiced. …

Chameleons
Last night I went to Peddlar's on the Bend in Constantia for dinner. It was planned as a book club get together with the George escapees, but most couldn't make it so there were only 3 of us who were there. Cait dropped me so I didn't have to drive as I intended to have …
The Luck of the Draw
We are all a product of our environment. Genetics does obviously play a certain role in our make up but I think most people discredit the role that ‘nurture’ has on our personality and temperament.I see this reflected in the people around me and hear it in the stories people share with me.Yesterday was the …
He Ain’t Heavy – It’s Time to Shed That Load
There has been a lot of rain and flooding in the northern areas of South Africa. We have had some temperamental weather down at the coast but nothing like they are dealing with in the north.The impact of this nationally is that we are having load shedding again. For those non-SA peeps, this is where …
