I'm not sure I can play music any louder today. Apparently, the album I've decided I need to hear right now is "Lost Highway" by Bon Jovi.And yes, I do know the words to every song. No doubt the neighbors are unimpressed. This week, I need this so there ya go.Music is like a blanket … Continue reading She put the boy back in cowboy.

What am I waiting for?
Floundering a bit at the moment. Turns out I'm not 100% convinced that I know what I'm going to do next. It's quite a weird feeling after years of knowing exactly what the next step was - listen to Ellie and write, rinse and repeat.Now it's wide open and could be anything and I don't … Continue reading What am I waiting for?

Just Older
Welcome to Friday. Turns out I'm getting older and I'm not super thrilled about it. The age thing is okay, I mean, I'm glad I'm not a freaking Zoomer. Imagine? What's not okay is arthritis and not being able to do what I've always done (and taken for granted). So, today I went looking for … Continue reading Just Older

Tuesday in the bookshop wasn't I thought it would be. Nope. Not at all. When I walked up this morning I had one thought on my mind.

I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing …
Thanks for that gem Aerosmith. I do love it. I pressed play, had no idea what I was listening to last - so, the Armageddon sound track was a nice surprise. 🙂 This song in particular has been a favorite for years. I've been hard at it over the last few days, making a lot … Continue reading I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing …
Ten things about this week …
It's my birthday on Dec 12. I will be spending it alone because everyone is always busy in December and because My Knight isn't here this year. AND I HATE IT. So there's that. 😦 It's also Ellie's birthday on Dec 12. Surprised? You shouldn't be, I did that on purpose so I didn't have … Continue reading Ten things about this week …
