Everyday emails to my pal about… everything!
Hey Friend! Hope all is well with you. You’re not going to believe this but, ever since I turned 40, I’ve been eagerly anticipating the arrival of the menopause. I know, weird. But the thought of not having a week of checking I haven’t leaked, wearing dark clothes in case I do and ensuring the … Continue reading All Change
Hey Friend! How’s it going? I’ve been back at work this week but I enjoyed the novelty of two weeks paid time off for the Easter break and wondered why I took so many years to work in a school. Previously, I’ve had to be content with a couple of days here, a couple there, … Continue reading No Wi-Fi? No Problem
Hey there! How goes it? The daffodils are out and the Magnolia blossoms are budding – Spring has sprung! The horrible stye has gone and my other eye has thankfully stopped twitching so, I feel somewhat normal again. I had my last day at my school this week and I’m feeling reflective. I am forty-six … Continue reading Embracing Quietness
Hey Friend! How’s it going? This morning the fog was so thick I could barely see the tree across the road, but the sun has since come out and burned all of that away.

Hey there! How are you? Well, here we are in February, January disappearing in a wintery blur. Although, it was quite disconcerting to see the buds of Magnolia in the middle of last month. I found myself praying for plants – ‘It’s too soon! The blossom will all get blown away by a returning cold … Continue reading Book Club, Anyone?
Hey Friend! Happy New Year! So is it ‘New Year, New You?’ Or is there some other non-committal mantra you’re following? 😊 I’m taking some time this week to set some goals with intention, which just means I’m making a plan to actually achieve them. Two I’ll share with you: Re-learning the saxophone (it’s been … Continue reading Resolutions or Goals…?
Hey! How are you? Sorry, I know it’s been a while since my last post. There was the job that turned out not to be the God-send I thought it was, but I’ll tell you about that another time. Mr E got his results from his radiotherapy – his PSA levels are neither higher or … Continue reading Insecure?
