I have decided that to keep myself blogging, and to make some sense, my weekdays need to have monikers. All of these are placed below. I will not dictate what each will look like - they could be a picture or an essay or just a line or two. This is my way of bringing… Continue reading Topical names

Day 3
I suck at this consistency thing, which admittedly is weird considering I work in finance and HR, both of which require consistency rather important. I don't do resolutions as a rule, and this year I thought, what the hell, let's dream up some. I can tell you that I broke it on Day 1, 2… Continue reading Day 3
Bring on 2020
I am so done with 2019, I wish tomorrow was a new year! 🙂 A very poor attempt at humour. It has been a hard year, so many challenges that as I reflect I wonder how I got through it all. But I did, well we did. We're still here, still going, no matter how… Continue reading Bring on 2020
Opinion piece: #metoo
There is so much of the #metoo, feminism and the like, that I wonder when we forgot our men. When did we relegate men to the furthest and worst corners of the world? Why did we feel we had to emasculate a man to the point of no return? I am against abuse of any… Continue reading Opinion piece: #metoo
Perceptions
The fact that we view the world through our own perceptions of what reality is leaves me pretty fucked. The fact that I battle constantly to see the perception (view point) of those I love the most, is even more fucked. Disclaimer: probably a salty post My childhood was not one of those TV dramas… Continue reading Perceptions
Hmmm…
I love trolling other blogs ... consider it a voyeuristic attempt at finding decent fodder for my blog. And my otherwise slightly deranged head and dreams. As I was trolling (it really is stretching if I say visiting), I came across this from Brian. And I am so guilty of these ... so I thought… Continue reading Hmmm…
Lessons learned
This is a thing we do at work. We have lessons learned sessions after sales wins and losses, implementations and go-lives. We try and learn what we did well and can replicate, and what we did not do so well and change. We don't always learn from the lessons learned exercise, but it is becoming… Continue reading Lessons learned
Catch-up
Unfortunately I have been offline for a while, stalking the pages but unable to write myself. 4 weeks ago I ended up in hospital with severe pain and after some tests discovered that there is a kidney stone. Long story short, first operation is done and the stent in place (along with the wire) and… Continue reading Catch-up
Honesty
What does it cost us to be honest? More to the point, what does it cost you? It is easy to say "I am honest" but when you told truth about something, what did you hold back so that you wouldn't hurt them more than necessary? Or just not add that extra fact because they… Continue reading Honesty
5 songs
Stole this idea from here ... Instead of doing a comment, I thought I would just run with the blog. The original is a missive from Jessica at “Branches” entitled “Five Things You Should Read/Watch/Listen To If You Want to Understand Me”. (Limit yourself to five books, movies, or songs that define and/or formed you). This edition… Continue reading 5 songs
