I love my daddy and my daddy loves me, He takes me on micro adventures to see, The wondrous joys the world wants to share, With you and with me and with others out there. One dark autumn night we kept walking until, We had climbed to the top of a very big hill, Wrapped... Continue Reading →
Her
‘What are you doing?’ I turned around expecting a stranger, a passer-by, but it was her. I was shocked to hear her voice. I had known her since we were four but had never heard her speak. Twelve long years later here she was talking to me and I was the one left speechless. In... Continue Reading →
Be Brave
As I watch my six year old son from a distance, I see the fear on his little face. I know how it holds him back from experiencing some of life’s joys and that real sense of achievement you only really get when you overcome something difficult. He is on the outside looking in, assessing... Continue Reading →
The Gift of Life
I try not to think about death too much, having a strong tendency towards morbid thoughts means it is better pushed to the far extremities of my mind. Right now however, I am compelled to take my head out of the clouds and teeter on the edge of death for a moment, for the greater... Continue Reading →
Get your fight back
I haven't written a post for a while because life has been moving at the speed of light, but I felt I had to write today because I am feeling in such a positive place and I was thinking it might rub of on you (if you need/want it to!). Where to start, I guess... Continue Reading →

Christmas was on the way but I was lacking in my usual Christmas spirit, instead feeling totally overwhelmed.... Continue Reading →

Wonder Women
Am I Wonder Woman? I do have the outfit in the loft (my 30th birthday party costume), although I don't tend to wear it on a daily basis and I don't have super powers as such but at times I really feel like I am. Juggling a part-time office manager role, virtual PA work, once a... Continue Reading →
Sugar Free September – The End
Yesterday was the last day of 'Sugar Free September'. Did I start today with sugar laden cereal or go for coffee and cake to help me stay awake after very little sleep (thanks to my son)? I could if I wanted to, the challenge is over but no, strangely I haven't headed for the sugar........ Continue Reading →
Sugar Free September – Week 2 1/2
Life got in the way last week so apologises for my late post. Week two has come to an end, week three is in full swing and I am surprisingly still sugar free! It seems to be becoming second nature to me now. I am not tempted at all and don't crave sweet things like I used to,... Continue Reading →
