Random thoughts of a very clumsy person
If you’re a woman in your 30’s and possibly in a steady relationship or worse still (for this particular situation) married, I’m quite sure that you’ve been asked something on the lines of, ‘When are you having a baby?’, ample times. This is a very difficult subject for me to write about and discuss. In... Continue Reading →
As we’ve already established, I celebrated my birthday this week (and the 10th survival anniversary, for those of you who haven’t read about that yet). I have been lucky enough to grow up enjoying quite ‘elaborate’ celebrations for my birthday. I am always on the lookout for occasions to ‘celebrate’ - throw a party, host... Continue Reading →
A 10th anniversary reflection Tomorrow’s my birthday. But this birthday is a little more special as I’m also celebrating the 10th anniversary from when I did something incredibly stupid and ended up spending a birthday in hospital. I’m posting this today because the incident I’m going to talk about actually happened exactly 10 years ago... Continue Reading →

I think it's truly amazing how parents manage to instil in us 'loves' and 'passions' for a number of different things. I know I definitely got the love for music and dance from my parents, which seems to have been passed onto them by their parents and grandparents. It also seems that with each generation...

A clumsy person might hope that being locked indoors as we currently are, would provide a safer environment and thus make us less prone to accidents. I'd like to be the one to debunk this theory, or at the very least put a dent in it. Putting a dent in things is somewhat of a... Continue Reading →
Just over two years ago a little baby girl changed my world beyond my imagination and stole the biggest part of my heart. The arrival of this mega change to my life came as quite a surprise though. Here’s the story... I had dogs at home for most of my life as I was growing... Continue Reading →
Let’s be honest, the situation we're currently living in was unexpected and hit most of us hard. All our lives we hear about wars and illness and poverty, and in our minds those are things that happen in remote countries and to other people. The island seems to enclose us in a sort of protective... Continue Reading →
