The writing on the Wall…
“The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor WitShall lure it back to cancel half a Line,Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.” This post was inspired by Omar Khayam and is about the way my life, and just everything else, it seems, has changed lately. I…

Sunday Thoughts…
I am so glad to have come to the end of a very dismal week. A week where I couldn’t quite get going, or know the reason why. A week where I have been doing a lot of thinking, trying to figure out the best way forward through the constant pain. I gave up a…

Memories of a Better Saturday… #Flowers
I really wanted to take part in another #Six on Saturday this week, but sadly, our little garden is waterlogged. Any flowers that were grimly hanging on, have been reduced to a soggy mess from all the rain. This had me remembering all the lovely flowers that have made me smile this year. I am…

The Darker side of me…
The Darker side of me… I never knew I had a dark side, not really. I do remember having these small snarky feelings when I was a child, towards the latest person to tick me off or stand me in the corner. I am a good-natured person, I have found that life is usually better…

No two days are the same…
As a child, I could rely on the weather and the seasons. It was always warm and sunny in the Summer and cold and invariably wet in the Winter. At least, that is how I remember it. It was comforting to know where you were and what to expect, that any deviations would always keep…

Monday Thoughts…
I was looking for an image to start my week… Something awe inspiring, or maybe one to kick start some enthusiasm? I have to admit that I didn’t start the day well. The thought of another day, struggling to come up with new ideas that work was not the best way to start. Bad enough…

Another Day from Hell…
Yesterday turned out to be a nightmare. From the moment I staggered across the office to my Windows PC, everything I touched went wrong, failed to load, or couldn’t be found. I am not a lover of technology, but as long as it does what it says on the tin, I can usually cope well…

The Power of Books #Bad Moon #Fiction #Horror
I was a lonely child, and London was a lonely place to be when I was growing up there after the war. All around me, people were busily trying to put their lives and homes back into some kind of order. I remember walking around the streets, confused by all the chaos that still had…

Wednesday Words…
Anita wrote this poem a long time ago, but I happened to see it this morning, while looking for a little inspiration. This is getting harder to find these days, as living with pain is unsettling at best. I have eased up a little on the exercise routine, but no visible difference yet. I am…
