I am aware that religion is very important to many. This post is not intended to insult anyone. It is simply my thoughts on a page! I did a post last week, “Miracle or coincidence” which has made me think. For many who read it, it proved without doubt that God is real. For others … More Have Faith?
This morning I was walking past my sons bedroom, and for a moment I thought, “I’ll kill him”. Let me explain. As his exams are so close, I have been known to occasionally tidy his bedroom. In part to be nice to him, but also for fear he contracts some awful disease, and cannot sit … More The more things change, the more they stay the same!
Many say we Irish are a nation who like to fight. I of course would disagree. The following story I think shows clearly, that if my husband is anything to go by, we are a people who have some very alternative ways, of approaching the difficulty of successful conflict resolution. The majority of us are … More An alternative approach to conflict resolution.
When our babies are young, we watch them like hawks. New mothers stare for hours at the faces, of their newborn. The idea of leaving them for even a short time, fills us with angst. Eventually we have to loosen the ties. Initially we trust only our husbands for babysitting, but in time we get … More Who can I trust to mind my child?
I met my future over twenty five years ago. And he changed me forever. He was everything I did not look for, and I became all I frowned upon. He was solid, steady, and clean shaven, an all round good looking “nice” guy. I became a love sick puppy, who chased her man shamelessly. Of … More One Pillow.

In Ireland we have a population of only four million. Yet huge diversity of accent and dialect. As a response to the Weekly writing challenge, A manner of speaking, I have tweeked a post I did for St Patricks Day. I have spelled some of the words phonetically, so you can hear the Dublin accent! … More Overheard in Dublin
It is that time of the year again, when everyone begins to talk about, where they are jet setting off to for their holidays. My kids come home daily, listing the exotic places, their friends tell them they are going to. To say they are a bit jealous, would be an understatement! We have one … More Summer holidays!
Despite visiting my grandparents regularly on holidays, and my grandfather coming to live with us, after my grandmothers death, I never really knew them. I never asked the right questions, or showed any interest in who they were, or what sort of life they had lived. What I would give to be able to turn … More What Makes Me Me?
We all judge. Fact. It is a trait within us all. Some of us judge more regularly than others, Some more harshly or vocally. But we all do it.
