What’s something most people don’t know about you? Me trying to think of something mysterious about me! That’s made my brain hurt. I’m pretty much an open book. When the term WYSIWYG (wizzywig) first appeared in computing I realised it applied equally to me. For those who don’t remember the switch, it meant that youContinueContinue reading “I’d Like to be That Interesting”

Never Mind
When I realised as a child That I was always going to be wrong I didn’t think ‘never mind’ I just felt hurt When I wasn’t allowed to go to university And those hopes and dreams were stopped I didn’t think it then either I just felt lost Through decades of hurts That never neededContinueContinue reading “Never Mind”
Lazy Crazy
Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive? This is a good question. If I feel great then a lazy day makes me feel rested unless I suddenly get bored which makes me feel edgy. Cats also need a lot of attention, loved cats are never independent, they have routines, expectations, habits, specific mealContinueContinue reading “Lazy Crazy”
How to Love Yourself
People trot out that old chestnut, ‘you should love yourself more’, then generally walk away leaving you to get on with it, possibly because in truth they have no real idea how to put those words into action. I do. I had to learn. First by rebuilding my character to bring out the real me.ContinueContinue reading “How to Love Yourself”
The King
When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why? I’ve gone way back for this image of a young Prince Charles, because this is when the man I admire for his successes launched who he was going to be.

We had a situation recently where the way we were treated was rather horrible. It was quite a shock to be honest as it was with anContinueContinue reading “Loads of Things”
Spirit
What principles define how you live? Love this sky When you get a hole in the clouds like this I always feel like I’m looking into another world. As if it’s an opening into a magical realm. I grabbed this photo when I was trying to capture the northern lights the other night, hoping they’dContinueContinue reading “Spirit”
Anything Boring
What have you been putting off doing? Why? Housework. Decorating. Cleaning the paintwork. Going into the garage. That’s my husband’s space where the tidy image he presents gives way to the truth. He’s messy. I have days where cleaning comes easily and I keep going for as long as I can. I know to makeContinueContinue reading “Anything Boring”
