Who’s Zoomin Who

What a hectic chaotic week! I mentioned last week that I had a Shaman class in Scarborough on Sunday, but there were a few sick members and I thought we agreed to do it via Zoom for those who did not want to come in for whatever reason so I chose to zoom to save …

Rumination

The only bad thing about a 3 day weekend is how long the following week feels, but the long weekend itself was lovely. A nice mix of friends, family, outings and visits. Last Sunday it was Father's Day so Caitlin came to collect us and we went off to the Hout Bay Harbour Market. https://www.instagram.com/p/CtoVB65qpM8/

The Answer

This week has been a communications disaster zone for me! On Monday I received a package which contained a brass bell with a bird on it. It was an item which I had almost bought, in fact I put it into my shopping cart but did not purchase it, so how did it arrive?? There …

The Divine Feminine

This week has been full of all manner of amazing occurrences. Maybe it was planetary energy because the new moon moved into Taurus on the 19th of May and then Mars moved into Leo on the 20th. Then they all buggered off somewhere else to cause havoc. Taurus is all about pleasure and Mars is …

Choose Love

This week I heard someone say that they do not believe in 'falling' in love, that to have a relationship you have to get up each day and 'choose' to be in love. I guess that is no different than what 'they' say about being happy, that it is a choice. I always thought that …

Just Because You Can

Not to be trite, but you know the phrase 'just because you can, does not mean you should'? Usually it is served with a side of shade or body shaming, but in this instance I am using it to refer to managing the household on my own. I coped perfectly fine with Norm away and …

Ankers and Bikes

Last Sunday was the annual Cape Town Cycle Tour which is the biggest timed bike race in the world. There are now two races: the full 109km event and a 42km version which has been added to cater for young and less fit contenders. The event saw roughly 28 000 contestants taking part in both …

Tryn, Tryn Again

We had booked a dinner months ago with some friends who live all over South Africa with 2 of the couples having homes in the UK and US so we had to coordinate with everyone being in the country at the same time and therefore had to book in advance. I had sort of forgotten …

Posh Pretenders

This week has flown past, possibly because Norm was away since Thursday morning so I was Chief in Charge. It was a bit overwhelming so I put a routine in place since each of the dogs need meds throughout the day, I put on alarms via my phone and of course created a spreadsheet otherwise …

We All Break

The weather in Cape Town appears to be mirroring the rest of the world in that it is completely unpredictable. Can you say 'Climate Change'? Last weekend was really relaxing, yet really busy. If you are working at something you enjoy then it is not really work is it? Norm finished the grouting in my …
