Drenched

February 4th, 2010 · No Comments

I got soaked walking from my office to my car after school today. I was saturated to the bone and the coolness of that has stayed with me all night. I have been super active and handled lots of tasks that I’ve been too hot and bothered to attend to all week. I was on bus […]

2010 the start…

January 3rd, 2010 · No Comments

My year has began well. I have rearranged my furniture and cleaned the house. It feels more spacious. I have removed some clutter. There is always more to let go of. I noticed yesterday how I just move things that have no value to other places. I want to rid myself of it. I really love […]

Squeaky Beach

December 29th, 2009 · No Comments

Darin and I went to the Prom today. Tidal River was bursting at the seams with people so we decided after lunch to head to Squeaky Beach. There is a carpark there now. Last time I went there I had to walk from Tidal River. It was gorgeous. White, squeaky sand and blue water that […]

Struggle

November 11th, 2009 · No Comments

I’ve been sick for a couple of days. Friday night I had a heavy chest and it had degenerated until Sunday night I was out of breath. It’s been hot and I love the warm weather. I have not been impressed with being sick at all. I went back to work today. It was busy. […]

The Perfect Night for a Massage

August 23rd, 2009 · 2 Comments

The wonderful woman who has been massaging me for a couple of years has moved. She continued to come back to town for a while, but has now stopped. I would have to drive over an hour to have a massage with her, which I would be willing to do, yet the drive home would […]

Free Time Over

August 8th, 2009 · No Comments

I knew this day would come. The last day of my leave. The truth is, I’m a little relieved. I’ve had enough leisure. It’s been marvellous and I have lived in most moments of it (unless I was rehashing the past or planning for the future) and feel like I’ve been away for a lot longer than […]

Recovery

December 22nd, 2008 · 1 Comment

I have spent the last couple of days sleeping off too much celebrating, late nights and all that goes with it. It makes me feel old that I need so much time for that! The weekend was very big socially for me and I am not used to it. I am grateful I am on […]

How Relaxed? Very Relaxed!

December 19th, 2008 · 1 Comment

I went to Melbourne last night and visited Willy on the way to Asha’s. She is in a beautiful light, airy new home. I love seeing my friends in great homes. She is sharing the house with her beautiful daughter, Dallis and it will be great to catch up with them both at once in the […]

Dentist

November 25th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Today I had the dental work done. I took my iPod. I realised most horrid part of the dentist chair are the sounds. So I lay back in the seat, closed my eyes under the sunnies and listened to my favourite music. The time passed quicker than I expected. It was a 70 minute procedure. I did hear […]

The Operator’s Manual for Planet Earth by D.Trinidad Hunt

September 2nd, 2008 · 1 Comment

I know I’ve always wanted life to come with a bit of a manual or a how to guide. This book was a story and yet it contained some spiritual truths that could serve well as a guide. It was easy to read and enjoyable, whilst delivering a message. My colleague won it at the […]
