L Squared

I had a bizarre experience on Tuesday night. Before I went to sleep I was thinking that I wished I had a recording of my Dad's voice. Just as I was dropping off into a deep sleep I heard a man say 'Lisa' loudly in my ear and I woke with a start. First I …

Something Borrowed, Something Blue

I had such lovely weekends both last weekend and this weekend. After such sunny weather last weekend we woke to overcast and damp weather starting again on Monday and it has been back and forth all week ending with freezing rain this weekend.

Endings & Beginnings

I started this blog weeks ago but due to the ongoing challenges with images and space I have not had much enthusiasm to write, but now with it being the first day of 2018 I am feeling inspired. I will try to just hit the highlights and not keep you here for hours, but still …

Nature or Nurture

I have read a few things about Virgos this week which made me ponder how much influence your star sign has over your personality traits and how much is environment. Virgos are notorious for our organisation. As a child I read a book which really stuck with me. It was a very old book which …
