Highlight #1 My nephew brings so much light to my life and brings me so much happiness. Lately when I see him, I have been blowing kisses to him and making a mmmmmmmmmmmmmuaaaaaaaaaaaah sound. He … Continue reading Highlights
Again I am really behind in posts… I have kind of failed the January blogging challenge, so I will have to continue it through to February. Tonight I am going to a local brewery to catch up with some friends that are moving to Europe in a few weeks. They sometimes look after my dogs so they will also be coming along. I live in … Continue reading The quick post
It has been a really hectic two weeks… When I logged on tonight I realised that I was behind in blogs by 6 days and immediately my self-judgement kicked in… I started thinking “why did you ever agree to this when you are letting your friend down” and “you are such an idiot, you can’t even commit to writing once a day”… I judge… and … Continue reading Topics of Taboo: Judgement

By the end of the day I felt pretty defeated and questioning some things. As per the quote, there very well be people who would love to have my today.

We read to know that we are not alone – William Nicholson Thanks for joining me for my first blog post! Here’s what I know about blogging: It seems like it’s for really interesting people – not to sound self deprecating (I’m such a blogger using fancy words) but I’m really not that interesting.
