My brain is completely shot to pieces. I just don't seem to be able to focus on much right now. The only thing I seem capable of is listening to Podcasts, reading non fiction and drinking tea...lots of tea...oh, and eating rubbish lol...I can feel my anxiety levels rising on a daily basis! I know… Continue reading Counting Your Blessings

Binge Watching
It seems like every time I go online or watch TV someone is talking about Netflix or Amazon Prime, catch up or boxed sets. What we should be bingeing on at the moment. Its crazy how life has changed in the last few years. I wont harp on about remembering the days when we had… Continue reading Binge Watching
Spending Time At My Desk
We finished decorating the house a couple of months ago. The room (affectionately known as the back room) was going to be my study/library. But when we decided to move we made it into a bedroom to aid with the sale. So although my desk is in there, it's not really felt like my study.… Continue reading Spending Time At My Desk
A Night Out With Friends
Yesterday I had an evening out with my writing group. Ok...I own up...it wasn't actually a night out, not like we normally do once a week. What I really did was go to the Motorhome for a couple of hours and attend our writing group meeting via Zoom 🤣 It worked really well and was… Continue reading A Night Out With Friends
It’s All About The Ice Cream

But this year, not only could I not see my kids or grand-children I also discovered i'm on the Governments Shielding List (because i'm taking an… Continue reading It’s All About The Ice Cream

Being Organised
Yesterday I did a bit or organising...and enjoyed it way more than I should have done lol I'm not a very neat, tidy and organised type of person. But I can see the benefits of living that way. Knowing where everything is and being able to lay your hands on something immediately must be great.… Continue reading Being Organised
Getting It Off My Chest
I've been doing a lot of journalling these past few days and yesterday I started a new notebook. Theres something really wonderful about starting a new one. All that promise...all those hopes and dreams that will be written down over the coming months. Along with all the worries and concerns of course. I'm finding it… Continue reading Getting It Off My Chest
A Moment of Silence
I didn't have my own photo to upload for this entry...so I Googled "quotes on silence" which was an interesting exercise. Lots of wonderful quotes about the benefits of silence...but it also brought up some examples of how silence can be damaging. After having the Grand-children for a sleep over on Sunday, yesterday I managed… Continue reading A Moment of Silence

Yesterday was our eldest's 32nd Birthday (how did that happen? 🤣) so we offered to babysit the little ones while our son and his wife went out for a meal. Watching 3 of our 4 grand-children yesterday brought back lots of memories. Boy, I couldn't cope with 3 little ones now on my own thats… Continue reading Memories
