Mild mental illnesses that are indefinite in form, yet still maintaining some semblance of reality.
For a long time on here I have kept my name and my photo private. As I write this, I have finally updated those settings. I am proud of my words and stand by them, so my face here should not be an issue. What is going to be funny is that I will get… Continue reading Not hiding
I stumbled across this:"Every relationship will get "boring" after you've been together for years. Love isn't a feeling, it's a commitment to love every day, physically and emotionally. It's difficult, it's not always laughs, smiles and fun. People tend to quit when it stops being fun, and they go look for someone else because the… Continue reading Love
"We need to talk about Kevin" by Lionel Shriver is one of the most confronting books I have read in a long time. I stumbled across this courtesy of my daughter and I read it in one sitting. Gripping stuff. I am not going to wax lyrical about how easy it is for mass shootings… Continue reading Being “Mom/Mum/Mother”
Quick note, I am working on a post a day. So please be patient with me 🙂 As you are all aware, R and I are poly. Now many people do not understand this, and generally take it down to the common denominator which is that we have an open relationship. This is true with… Continue reading Being at peace
I am starting to realise how close to burn out I am. It is scary. I have had to take a few steps back of late, and in the process of deliberately slowing down, I have seen how close total shut down is. I suppose there is only so far I can delude myself into… Continue reading Friendship, relationship and work
You ever get to that point where you have so much crap running around in your head, that you have to just dump it? I am writing regularly-ish at the moment, and still my head is full up. I always thought I was good at communication, or at least clear enough about my intentions and… Continue reading Mind dump
Just that now it can be public knowledge. I never thought I would be writing this. So much has led up to this moment, and for every single mountain, molehill and bump in the road I am grateful. Every tear that was shed, every tear in my heart and soul led me to here and… Continue reading It’s always been official
So we are having a little break. Wait! wait! oh ffs! WAIT!! It's not like that at all. We are having a little break because the public transport system is screwy for the next 3 weeks and in order to ensure I stay healthy and stable, I am in the city while Mr is at… Continue reading A little time apart
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
In all likelihood, this will be my last post for 2018. It's the crazy season and there won't be time for blogging. I wanted to say "thank you" to my friends, family, colleagues and acquaintances for the year that was 2018. Thank you for the laughter, the joy, sharing each others lives. Thank you for… Continue reading Thank you 2018
