Ha! The title is suggestive as all my words just went on strike! My weeks are generally full on. Work keeps me busy and with the longer commute, I am finding that by the time it gets to being at home, I am just done. Yet, amongst all the busy-ness, I am still getting major… Continue reading Elusive

Bits and bobs
It has been a strange couple of weeks. I have bounced between just wanting to die to extreme euphoria. My emotions, read hormones, have been so off centre that I have been unable to catch a breath. On top of this we have been attempting to expand our network. We are poly, for the new… Continue reading Bits and bobs
Misunderstanding
How easy is it to misunderstand someone's meanings and intentions? To flavour those interactions with your own anxiety and disappointment memories? We've had a few of those moments over the last week. Enough to cause, at least in my head, anguish. My heart hurts and my head runs through scenarios at a rate of knots.… Continue reading Misunderstanding
Empty nest
I have written about this before (and I am too lazy to go find it) but some days are harder than others. My kids are mid-twenties now. That old adage of enjoy them while you have them is most certainly true. Before you can blink they are out in the world finding their own way.… Continue reading Empty nest
Permission to be happy
I'm battling. Every day finds me in tears. Not the pretty kind either. Every thing is almost perfect. The move was relatively easy. We still have some stuff to unpack but most is done. The house looks good. Small things fit into place and my home looks good. I have space of my own. My… Continue reading Permission to be happy
31 days hath January
It's a lie! January is at least 100 days long!! I cannot believe that today is the last day of January. It feels like I have done at least 6 months work of living and work in these short weeks. I am well aware that from here the days and weeks will bleed into one… Continue reading 31 days hath January
2019 … with a BANG!!
The year is 23 days old and already I feel as though I have accomplished 6 months work. In 23 days, we have done a ~4,000km round trip to Brisbane via Dubbo and in reverse back to Melbourne, we are moving house ~40km further south and all the hilarity and panic that moving evokes, we… Continue reading 2019 … with a BANG!!
Trying too hard
Yep, I have come to the realisation that I am trying too hard. I am giving up time, energy and effort for little to no return, and it doesn't even make me feel good! All I feel is tired - no make that exhausted - and unhappy. So unhappy in fact that I find it… Continue reading Trying too hard
2019 … really?
So the second day of 2019 and here I am, no different than I was two days ago or even a week ago. Normally this is where I would lay out my lofty plans for the year and get right into all the growing and cleansing I will do. I would tell you all about… Continue reading 2019 … really?
That was unexpected
It is interesting how some things creep up on you and bite. Those little critters should have been dealt with ages ago, they don't belong here in the present. That was your past and that has been handled. Well, so you thought. I have been "single" for close to 7 years now. Yes, I have… Continue reading That was unexpected
