The last month has been even more fatigue-y than usual, and it was very challenging yesterday to realise that a bunch of things that would usually be super easy for me – in this case, helping the 13-yr-old with homework and literally just finalising a menu and turning it into a grocery list for an […]

I’ve been part of a workshop on writer’s block for, wow, like 6 months now. Next week is the final week and I am going to miss my Thursday morning zoom call! Today, though, we were talking about habits, habit formation, and how not writing can just be a habit rather than necessarily anything huge

I’m in limbo. If you’ve been here the last few months and/or on my Instagram, you’ll know that. Terminal cancer (that I fully intend to recover from), not working, yada yada yada.* So it’s a particular kind of limbo, but also it’s not, because I know other people who are in different specific circumstances but

So I made a commitment to keep blogging the other month, and then my website promptly died on me >.< Usually when it does, it either revives within about half an hour, or else it’s something I can poke around and fix. This time, it was neither. Boo. So it took a few weeks for

I’m going through a period of time wherein I have a constant drip of ideas for blogs ONLY when I’m not in a position to actually write them. Is this a sneaky form of perfectionism, with my critical voice conveniently erasing the idea harddrive whenever it suspects I might (outrageously) actually write something? Possibly, hmm,

My mailing list is broken. It’s been broken since, like, Easter, and I still have not managed to summon the wherewithal to lodge sufficient relevant helpdesk requests to get the thing fixed. I’ve tried a few times, but nothing so far has worked, and then *jazz hands* there was cancer and things just got too

Just some random musings on the state of my life this evening, journal style, because yes, I’m writing this in the evening even though it’ll show up first thing in the morning – not that that matters, because by the time you read it, it could be morning, it could be evening, it could be

A Friday Favs with pictures this time! How glorious. What a thing – wait for it – to be grateful for. *grin* I was going to do this like picture – sentence – picture – sentence etc but I decided that would make the post unwieldy, so I’ve just popped the pictures in and captioned

Really loving what are becoming fortnightly art mornings on Saturdays with the pink child. Sometimes the boy child joins in as well, but pink child is the one with the mad passion for arts and crafts, so it’s a nice ‘our thing’ we can do together 🙂 Sometimes we do tutorials, but this time I

So I’ve worked really hard to clear more space in my schedule this year after a few reminders that in order to write effectively, I need not only time to write, I also need white space as well. One unexpected benefit of this is that on some Saturdays, which are my no-chore church day, the
