Kinda feels like I'm in a holding pattern right now! Two things are happening but both involve a lot of 'hurry up and wait'. They'll be well worth it in the end, but, meanwhile ... waiting. And we all know, I'm pretty shite at that! Another thing is underway, let's talk about that? So, there … Continue reading The holding pattern …

It’s the weekend and whatnot
Just for fun, let's imagine I'm not drinking? Yeah, didn't work did it? 🙂 🙂 Surprise ... It's Sunday night I fucking earned this Cab Sav. How, you say?

Have you noticed …?
This has been going on for a while now, but, fuck me, it's pretty annoying to a certain age group (mine). The thing is ... When you say "I'm working on myself."

Almost jersey weather!
Part of me is delighted, because last year I knitted AWESOME jerseys but the rest of me is unimpressed because I like summer and very much dislike winter. (And it's coming!) Yesterday I wore my big purple knitted jacket, it was cold enough. Today, I'm working from home so an old hoodie will do the … Continue reading Almost jersey weather!

She mentioned that it sounds like I do it all myself.That would be, because I do.It never really occurred to me. Not like, sit and think about it, occurred to me.

Listening … and writing.
There are different kinds of listening. We know this. There's listening to understand and we should all do more of that, and then there are those people who aren't really listening, they're waiting for space to speak. Sometimes they don't even wait, they just talk right over people. Don't be them! Sometimes people appear to … Continue reading Listening … and writing.
