Do you have any collections? I started collecting memories when I was born, obviously. Unfortunately I struggle to remember many good times, I know they happened but they’re far outweighed by the struggle. Milders: I told you to take to drink years ago but would you listen? Deb: That is not a healthy way toContinueContinue reading “Crystals – thimbles – memories”

Chaos
What is the legacy you want to leave behind? Milders here darlings! I hate the word legacy, it’s so presumptuous. I love chaos. It’s so useful. If you create chaos no one can judge you because they don’t know what you will do next. They won’t argue with you because they don’t know what youContinueContinue reading “Chaos”
Cold
How do you feel about cold weather? Dear friends Mildred here. I apologise for my absence and the failure to bring my own special brand of crazy to your in box, or blog box. I of course left the care of my blog with my dear friend Deb, but she’s the least rebellious person IContinueContinue reading “Cold”
Possibly a Toe
Have you ever broken a bone? I walked into Tony’s foot and he was wearing leather shoes. My toe was no match for that. He told me he didn’t leave his foot there deliberately, I didn’t believe him. He said it was just on the end of his leg when he knelt down! A likelyContinueContinue reading “Possibly a Toe”
I Don’t Work
How do you balance work and home life? Mission accomplished. However, I would say that work life balance is very hard to achieve nowadays unless you’re a millionaire. But one thing I wish I’d known that would have made things so much better is to keep life simple and plan don’t drift. Stretch yourself toContinueContinue reading “I Don’t Work”

The aquamarine lost and I still miss it. We’d both got anContinueContinue reading “Engagement Ring”
Leader
Are you a leader or a follower? I’ve always been a leader, right from a child. Running in front of everyone, rushing to see what was around the next corner. The annoying teacher’s pet/swot who got tasked with making the class behave if the teacher was out of the room. Head teacher’s favourite. I wasContinueContinue reading “Leader”
Fruit and Nutcase
List your top 5 favorite fruits. Years ago in the UK there was an advert for Cadburys Fruit and Nut chocolate bars, with the very catchy song “everyone’s a fruit and nutcase”. A nutcase bring a happily crazy person. It was one of those ditties that you find yourself singing 40 years later, it wasContinueContinue reading “Fruit and Nutcase”
Stay Calm and Centred
What’s one small improvement you can make in your life? The heart knows I’ve had a situation recently that would knock anyone off-centre. Upsetting, disruptive, and full of new experiences you just have to face up to and get on with. I’ve done okay. Way better than expected, but obviously I’ve had my moments. However,ContinueContinue reading “Stay Calm and Centred”
