Sometimes there are just too many goodbyes in life. Today, as we do every Thursday, my friend and I went calling on our pal, an elderly gentleman in his 80s, who I have written about before here. We had, as we do every Thursday, a wonderful morning of chat, and stories, shared over a cup … More Thursdays, will never be the same again.
Do you ever look at your life and think.. I want more. You know there is no reason for your dissatisfaction, and that life is indeed good, but… You want more money. You want a different job. You want to be a stay at home mother. You definitely do not want to be a stay … More I want…. more.
What on earth possesses some of you I ask myself? To decide to write a novel, and to do it in one month? I know many of you have signed up to Nanowrimo, and some of you have even made it past the first week. Wow. I have been greatly enjoying reading your posts about … More Write on.

Definitely my favourite cafe and garden centre … More If we shared a coffee it would be here.
In any given day I do many things over and over. Some make sense, others don’t. I punctuate the day with boiling the kettle a million times to make tea. Sometimes I admit I’m thirsty, other times it is just an excuse to sit down and stop whatever I am doing. I walk past the … More These things I do.
If you had just four weeks left before you had to leave friends forever how would you chose to spend your time with them? For quite some time now a friend and I have been visiting an elderly gentleman once a week. We began it as part of a project with age action, which means … More What would you chose?
It is a little over a week ago since my laptop became ill. It was not anything terminal, but it did require treatment from a professional. Reluctantly I handed it over, and within an hour I had begun to itch. Oh the posts I would be writing if I had it. I seemed to see … More I hate technology.
The clocks in Ireland went back one hour last night. Today as I look at the different times on the clocks in my house I feel somewhat confused.
