between the mountain and the ant

Do you ever have one of those days where it seems every thing is coming at you all at once and nothing goes smoothly? Monday before last, Norm had booked the plumber and the electrician to come and I had booked Chichi to come and clean and Kim to come and work in the garden. …

Not That Kind of Girl

Everyone (myself included) has been whittering on about Mercury and communication issues. I have been hit with it this week with what seems like a million paper cuts, not deadly but annoying AF! I ordered from one supplier and one of the items that arrived was broken, so they compensated me. Then I noticed that …

The Light Bearer of Truth

Time flies by so quickly, I also find that the older one gets, the more it seems to accelerate. I was ill with my stomach for 3 weeks so avoided everyone in case of germ transfer, then Caitlin was having a visit with her dad and brother for a week, and the next thing you …

River of Denial

This week I heard a term which really resonated with me. Once again I cannot remember where I heard it, but the theory is that the reason that we cannot see the future impact of the actions or decisions we make today is due to 'dissociation from our future selves'.

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 …

Used to be Young

I was so happy to be able to fly to George to see Lily, Trevor, Josh and Amelia. Josh's mom Jackie is home at the moment and it was lovely to get to spend time with her too. We are very similar in so many ways. Josh and Lily picked me up from the airport …

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 …
