I saw the light…..

October 28, 2009

I have been on a quest lately to improve myself….physically and mentally. I have mentioned before my interest in spirituality. Remember how many crystals I carry around me everywhere I go? A couple of weeks ago I was looking into Reiki and mentioned it to a friend. Lo and behold she said that she’d had [...]

My Mission- Part 2

October 26, 2009

Followers will know that I’m on a mission….why? Well, a couple of weeks ago whilst on a rare night out, a friend who is having a party at the end of November told me she is trying to set me up with a friend of hers. GULP! Now I’m not even sure if i want [...]

Lots to be grateful for….

October 23, 2009

Well, another week survived. It’s been up and down. Increasingly frustrating but I’m sure there is a reason for it.I have done a lot of teeth grinding and biting my lip.I have had to say “No” three times but I’ve stuck to it. At this precise moment I’m feeling very dizzy….probably too much caffeine on [...]

The Mission- Part 1

October 20, 2009

Ever since I can remember I have been painfully shy. I know I put up a barrier around myself saying, “Don’t come near me.” I am one of those people that looks miserable and and seems to attract stupid insensitive men that say, “Cheer up love, it might never happen.” For all they know it [...]

Friday’s gratitude list

October 16, 2009

It’s been a quiet week after Monday’s antics. After Monday’s initial sadness, I’ve been becoming increasingly angry about certain things.

Little Treasures

October 9, 2009

Among my gloomy post are pictures drawn by one of my children. I keep anything like this, they are beautiful and I am very privileged to be given these very touching ‘gifts’. It hasn’t been the worse week among this ongoing nightmare but I am still feeling low. And I feel guilty for feeling low. [...]

To review or not to review? That is the question…

October 5, 2009

I started blogging because I thought I had something to say to the world. I also wanted to vent my anger, frustrations and sadness through words.
