If you rustle up a pan of eggs and one or two go a little wonky, who gets the bad eggs? Who gets the perfect ones? When you have a choice to give or keep the best of things where does your heart go? Does your head agree? Do you find conflict there? Don’t allContinue reading “Good egg”

Thankyou
As we look past the storm damage and the winter garden, bereft of it’s colours and usually dug up by four giant paws … We could be sad and ponder all that was lost, and is gone: lament the landscape of change. Or we could take a moment to celebrate all that has been andContinue reading “Thankyou”
Daughter
If all we have is here and now, wrapped in the moment’s arms To see the line of sunrise bleeding inky peaceful charm. To crush the darkest fears at night with fingers laced in mine And deep in your blue eyes I see your joyful vibrant shine. To wash away the worry of the mealsContinue reading “Daughter”
Storm
This is bonnie. When something isn’t right she stands very still and shuts her eyes . When she is scared she freezes. Until the storm passes. Often this becomes our default.

Well here’s a little story Given with a pinch of pride, To tell you that you can indeed; And land the other side. Not only as the self you were: Bit all the missing parts,Continue reading “Road trip”
Getting rid of the old.
Emerging like dusty blinking cave people… I don’t know about you but I am in a strange place with my stuff. Haven’t we had to get far more bored with our things recently!?! In our case, the house has been chewed and nibbled to extremes and needs a tv makeover, thanks to the wonder whoContinue reading “Getting rid of the old.”
Paw me
It was all a bit of a mad dash, with not much time to panic as it was a cancellation. But the surgery was very much needed as the drawing hand was really struggling with bad arthritis and pain. A massive thankyou to my friends and even to people I know only a little, forContinue reading “Paw me”
