  • To My Dad

    To My Dad

    You weren’t always in agreement with me, But you were by my side; Serious when you needed to be, But always willing to chide. You worked long hours to keep us fed, Setting foot on many a shore- Oh how I wish that just for one day, You could come back through my door! You…

    Cats Choose Their People

    Tonight I thought I would write a little post about Rosie, my cat. I have had her since Mother’s Day, 2013 and she’s still going strong, despite having thyroid disease. Due to a string of illnesses in the house and Rosie’s need for regular cortisone or antibiotic injections at the moment, I had to enlist…

  • The Social

    It seems like it was just yesterday – The Grand Chain and the Strathspey- My purple skirt and cheery face Dancing lithely in the space! Travelling step, then right and left The music churning; timing kept- Those were the days of love and dreaming; Cares forgotten- face kept beaming. Easy to imagine that I could…

Little pockets of energy powered…

    Princess Mozella

    Today my little princess has a birthday. When indulging in pretend play, she often calls herself “Princess Mozella”. She is only a few years old and yet she has achieved a lot in a short space of time and is growing every day. Today we hosted a little afternoon tea with a couple of games…

  • Ode To One Who Cares

    Your reassuring hand on my shoulder, Your empathetic eyes; A rare gem who cares more than many in the field, Clear-thinking and wise. Never-judging- always positive , Declaring the distance I’ve come; You make the mountains shrink away And affirm all the hope that’s begun. You’re a calming influence ; Your humour disarming- As well…

  • A Little Howdy!

    A Little Howdy!

    Dear Readers, It has been quite some time since I wrote anything and published it on this site. I haven’t forgotten about writing. In fact, I am on the brink of trying something new. I am going to learn some skills to help me try my hand at writing a children’s book. For many years…
