As the days and weeks are passing through November I’ve found myself to be a little bit whiney and not exactly full of blogging mojo. Next week is Danny’s two year anniversary and I’m hoping come December I’ll be full of inspiration and ready to entertain you all once more, with my wit and storytelling. … More Tomorrow, I love you tomorrow.
We hear of the attacks in Paris and we worry, yet the reality in all our lives is that when tragedy strikes our family our circle shrinks. We care not one bit for what is happening in the world around us. The day we hear a family members life is at risk, we close rank … More Take a moment…
I heard about Paris and I was sickened. I searched for information and I was sickened. Hours passed and social media went into overdrive.

I’m very famililar with the term Catholic guilt, but is that true? Are Catholics the only people who go through life with guilt? Of course not. There are all kinds of guilt. Mothers in particular are full of it. Guilty for putting their children into a creche. Guilty for not putting them in a creche. … More Are you guilty?
Today I was forced to sit for hours contemplating my age, looks and mortality. No I wasn’t in an Accident and Emergency department, moments from death, but in the hairdressers inches from a mirror, which quite frankly was doing my face no favours. As I sat there, I spent as much time as possible … More What reminds you of who you truly are?
We all have many people who share our lives every day, parents, grandparents, partners, family and friends. Their support and love gets us through the good and the bad.

I attended the funeral of a grandfather last night; an elderly man who was ill for some time. A few months ago he said goodbye to his wife of many years, his ‘ole doll’ as his granddaughter said.
