Separation.
I sat in my living room the other night, it was after 10pm. Hubby had just arrived home with arm loads of bags. I was heading off for my weekend away {well two of the days} in the morning. It occurred to me, I wasn’t the only one. Hubby was packing for an adventure too. He had grasped the…

Blogopolis and Beyond!
Well it just went and crept up on me. Nuffnang’s Blogopolis that is. I’ve been planning on going since last year. I had SUCH a great time. Loved it, despite my seat basically being up against a pole in the ass end of nowhere. And here we are less than 45 days {Thanks for the…

I was watching the final season of Sex and the City last weekend and we were at Charlotte’s second wedding {to Harry} and she’s freaking out because nothing is going right and she thinks it’s a bad sign. Carrie catches up with her in the bathroom and tells her to eye her eyes to the…

It must’ve been love, but it’s over now.

More blogging advice from me.

Be genuine. Don’t promise anything you’re not happy to deliver. Keep living your life. Be honest with everyone…

Empty spaces
(trigger warning: pregnancy, infertility, miscarriage) I have a Mother. I celebrate her. I wish I were a Mother. I’m not. Today we celebrate Mother’s, and so I partake. She was celebrating the woman who not only delivered me so perfectly into this world but who prepared me so wonderfully for it. My Mother is…
