Bucket List

Friends know that I am frog-o-phobic and we have a horrendous situation going on at the moment. We have a toad somewhere in the house. How do we know? Toad poop. If you know toad poop, then you are never mistaken about the origin of that poop. It has no sphincter marks like normal poop …

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 …

The Touchstone

I am happy to see the arrival of November because I have been living the single life for the majority of October. I feel like I cannot really complain because I manifested 'prosperity' and Norm's consultancy has taken off amazingly. Norm is so happy working and his client contracts are what finance my new windows …

The Bigger Picture

I have quite a few visual challenges in that I am very myopic (i.e. 'near-sighted') as well as I have an eye disease which affects my vision, but another challenge is that I am colour blind. My Dad used to call it 'colour ignorant' because we do see colour, we just do not always know …

The Problem Solver

Last weekend was great for catching up with my social groups after my month in George. I saw so many of my pals either on Saturday, Sunday or both! I mentioned my Soul Circle group on Saturday in last week's post. On Sunday I met 'L', a woman who is here for work for a …

Seeing Yourself Amplified

As much as I loved being down in the Garden Route with my SIL, daughter and granddaughter for a month, it is a long time to be away from my home, my pets and my husband. I cannot remember when Norm and I were apart this long. Norm flew down on Monday and then we …

Attitude of Gratitude

No matter how bad you may think your life is, there is someone who would love to 'swap' places with you. No matter how much you may dislike your body, there is always someone who would love to have it (and no I am not talking about 'having' it I mean as in a body …

Toxic Love

This has been a short week as today is a public holiday (hence publishing a day early). I mentioned in my post last week about Tim, a family friend who passed away. I phoned Joy, his wife, to express our condolences and one of the things we discussed was how to recognise the signs from …

Surrender

When we woke last Sunday we saw that there had been a fire in the nearby township during the early hours of Saturday morning. The blaze was reported to Fire Services at 23h56 and six pumps, two water tankers and rescue vehicles were quickly on the scene and brought the blaze under control at approximately …

If You Can’t Love Yourself…….

RuPaul says it best. "If you can't love yourself then how the hell are you gonna love somebody else?" The root of so many mental health issues is lack of self-confidence, self-love or conversely, self-loathing. I saw this quote: It's not through healing that you will love yourself. It's through loving yourself, that you will …
