As a mother, I can attest that a child is both magical and heart rending. From the moment you know you have a life inside you, the weight of every choice, every decision is on your mind. You look at life with new perspective and second guess yourself constantly. Those baby years, before school. Where… Continue reading Heartache

Cry the Beloved Country
This won't be long. I'm writing because I need the outlet. I need to say what is in my heart, what is on my mind. I need to do that in a forum where I won't get the pity look, or the uncomfortable one. Where I won't feel like what I am sharing is so… Continue reading Cry the Beloved Country
“Extras”
For those following, thank you for the patience during our interrupted broadcast. I am on the mend, and life is feeling better.

Adding up the moments
We are officially 69 days (yeah yeah I get it ... but it was completely unintentional ... I think 😉 ) into 2021 and I am adding up the moments.

Just a whinge
It is Wednesday and it feels like Friday ... actually no, it feels like I should be somewhere in November and not the 3rd day of February due to the exhaustion I feel. I am literally running on fumes and I have no fucking idea why. Yesterday I obediently trotted off to the "experts" my… Continue reading Just a whinge
Saturday musings
R is off for a weekend getaway with his gf and I am at home with the two pups and my head. I sometimes wonder if I should be writing more, but there are days when words simply elude me and thoughts that came at 2am are no more than wisps of fog across my… Continue reading Saturday musings
