Overwhelmed by Gratitude

I usually do not really suffer with jet-lag but this trip it has really hit me hard. Possibly it is because I started a new contract the day after we returned home? I have had to nap or at least rest a bit each afternoon as I have not been sleeping well at night, I …

Alphabet Li & CreepoCop

In my last post I mentioned attending soul circle, but I did not tell you that several people told me that my energy is completely different than when I first attended a year ago. Apparently I was a ball of nervous energy then, I think someone called me a 'bumblebee' which makes me giggle. Someone …

The Power of Knowledge

It is now over 3 months since I started self isolating. There have been 1,293,608 people tested in SA. The statistics are: https://www.instagram.com/p/CBsLTgrJ-47/ The highest percentage of deaths in SA are within mine and Norman's age brackets. The Western Cape, where we live, has by far the highest number of positive cases as well as …

The Matrix of Oneness

Another week of lockdown is in the bag. It has been 19 days in total since I left my home. My very wise friend Michelle was saying that we need to flip the terminology around the lockdown, rather to call it 'Time Out' or even better 'Time In'. We should treat it as a time …

Blind Love

Last Sunday was a lazy day but I did do a bit of planting. I had some pots that were in a spot where the plants were getting too much sun and kept dying. I moved the pots onto the porch and snipped off some clippings from my existing succulents and planted them. https://instagram.com/p/B86Uk97pcO9/ Hopefully …

The Peter Principal

Thanks to my fabulous Sunday evening last weekend, on Monday morning I was a wee bit hungover. I had left the office early the previous Friday so I missed the arrival of a meeting invite for Monday but luckily I wore a nice dress and did not look a tramp despite my fuzzy head. We …

3 Roots

When I meet new people they often cannot place my accent as I have absorbed a bit of each of the places I have lived. When I first moved to Los Angeles no one could understand my drawl. I had to tone down the Scarlet O'Hara-ness of it just to avoid people taking the mickey …

Five

I have five more days on my current project and then hopefully I don't ever have to work again with the developer I've had so many issues with. This week he allegedly developed 10 data rules but only half were valid. He could not even get his job to complete on Friday but felt no …

A Smile A Day

Every day we see some new bit of progress with Panda's development. If you compare his progress from my last blog to this one it is amazing! I usually write a few notes each day in my blog and then connect the dots and tie it all together when I'm ready to post but I …

Patience and Hearts

When you have an infant you get excited over their developmental progress even though you expect it to happen and you have a general timeline of when it should happen. When little Panda became paralyzed we had no idea if he would recover and if he did we had no idea of the timeline of …
