    June. How the hell is it June already? Where has the year gone? This year has gone so fast and I haven’t even started yet. So, It’s been just over 3 months since I had the hip replacement surgery. While I’m not where I want to be, I am certainly a long way from where…

  • Easter Sunday Musings

    For what it’s worth, I hope everyone is enjoying their day and eating their weight in chocolate Easter eggs. Me personally? I devoured a Cadbury Crunchie Easter egg yesterday so I have reached my Easter quota for the year. The long weekend has been good so far- starting with a visit to my Dad’s place…

    Is a question I get asked alot. “You can’t be a writer – because you don’t read!” claim the avid book readers in my life. To them, because I’ve not a book in my hand at all times, I am considered a heathen. I am wrong. In order to fully understand my love of the…

  • When a Sunday becomes a Thursday

    Look, to tell you truth, I’ve not had much in the way of spoons this week and so trying to do anything has been a monumental amount of effort and frankly, the word NO features heavily in my vocabulary .. That said, I am here with this week’s promised blog – Albeit a short one.…

  • 2023.. Goodbye, So long and Farewell (Though It’s not without its Thank You’s)

    If there ever was a year that I am forever glad to see the back of – It’s 2023 I can’t speak for anyone else but for me the year 2023 was the most emotionally exhausting, mentally draining, stressful, upsetting, soul destroying year I’ve ever had Highlights Include: The never ending arguments and battles with…

  • The One Where The NDIS Was (still) Taking The Piss Regarding (my) Allied Health Providers
