I have to say something …
If you're a frequent flyer reader here then you know that there are occasions when I read a book so dreadful that it becomes a teaching moment. Notes are made. I use the awfulness as an example (of what not to do) for my crime writing class. Who can forget the honey-haired denim-eyed fiasco? This … Continue reading I have to say something …
When the germs get you …
Yesterday I drank so many cups of tea I was beginning to feel waterlogged. This morning I'm on my second pot of plunger coffee because I cannot face anymore tea. It's very rare for me to drink this much coffee. Good indication that the germs Freda brought into the house have won. I shall keep … Continue reading When the germs get you …
Crash Into Me.
Actually don't. No. I don't want you to crash into me. In fact, stay far far away. It's Monday. Coffee is black and hot, as it should be. It's a bit early in the day and the week for anything much. The plan is to work on [Foxtrot Mike Lima] after physio this morning. We … Continue reading Crash Into Me.
Settling into the new normal:
It's quite tricky working out what I can and can't do now and forever more. The only way to work it out is to try. If there's pain it's a no, if there isn't then a way I go. So far most things that are every day type things for me are a big fat … Continue reading Settling into the new normal:

Hi Ho Silver Lining.
You know that thing when someone's behaviour tweaks your gut? You give them the benefit of the doubt thinking maybe it's an off day. Fairs fair, we all have them. Then you realise it wasn't a bad day, it was every time you saw them. What I do is to sit with it. Happened to … Continue reading Hi Ho Silver Lining.
Aimless walking:
I don't do well without an objective. Today I should be going for a walk (it's good for my brain) but I can't decide where to go. The park isn't far enough and I have no desire to get wet feet from the grass. I don't do aimless walking well. I need a destination and … Continue reading Aimless walking:
If you could ask me a question …
I think the title is self-explanatory but I guess it isn't for everyone. :)If you could ask me a question about writing or my work, what would it be? What do you really want to know? Is there anything? If there is, jump into the comments section and ask. I will answer to the best … Continue reading If you could ask me a question …
