The Peace of Acceptance & the Ease of Ignorance

I was recently thinking about when I was young and carefree. I was about as deep as a puddle despite being educated, I was only educated in Science related things, not anything to do with EQ or street savvy. I only developed empathy once I had children, this may be part of being Neurodiverse but …

All Hail The Queens

This week has been quite eventful. Regardless of your feelings about the monarchy and the royal family, it is a sad event when a family loses their matriarch, much less an entire country loses their figurehead. I am not particularly a royalist by any means, however my marriage to Norm has resulted in many interactions …

Peaks and Valley-entines

Last weekend was as full of highs and lows as a bipolar disorder riding a roller coaster. Even though I was prepared for the possibility that the majority of the Republicans would not have the balls to do what was right and vote to convict Trump, I was still devastated when the votes were in …

The 3 Cs

I have been struggling a lot with anxiety and depression for a while now. I do take medication but the virus and the chaos in the USA last week has caused me excessive issues. I have been tearful and a bit of a hysterical mess. I go from anger to tears and back again on …

Blooms and Burgers

Norm and I ventured out last Sunday as I was getting a wee bit of cabin fever after spending 3 of my 4 day long weekend at home. We went to Dario's which has recently moved to a new location. We pulled in to the car park and were happy to spot plenty of outside …

The Empath’s Output

I finished watching Soundtrack this week. I give it 4.5 Kitten Stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ One thing that the main character said which resonated with me was that all songs are about love. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bRqe7eBqmw&t=79s The search for it, finding it, losing it, recovering from it, living with it or without it, keeping it alive when we are …

Hats and High Teas

It has been so cold in Cape Town for most of this week. We had horrid weather on Monday, stormy, dark and wet with howling wind. Lola decided she was cold and needed to snuggle up under my neck despite me trying to work. https://www.instagram.com/p/CD_MeDlpG8T/ Last Sunday we held a family Zoom meeting with my …

One

I have only one more day on my current project and I am so glad it is almost over but it makes me sad that we did not finish developing the entire solution. I loved the work, I enjoyed working with my client as I appreciate that he is as passionate as I am about …

Dangereuxly Delicious

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 …
