Twas the night before Christmas and nothing was stirring, not even a mouse - well that's an epic fail for starters given the way two fluffy things are staring at the welsh dresser and listening for the squeaking. Little gits have obviously captured one but not clever enough to get it - great, dead mouse… Continue reading Twas the night before Christmas ……

10 Red Flags to dating??
It occurred to me that with the lifting of lockdown and our general change in moods many will once again be considering dating, whether using online sites, introductions from friends or seeing colleagues in a new light.

Body shaming and why it’s not ok!
This has bothered me for some time now, and especially when I witness outright hurtful comments on social media towards others. Ok, firstly we are all different!! We are meant to be, you can eat exactly the same as another person and we'll each put weight on or lose it differently - let's firstly deal… Continue reading Body shaming and why it’s not ok!
New Year, new start!
So, the dating last year didn't exactly go that brilliantly!

So, friend said if you want to do it properly think you should go onto the paid… Continue reading New Year, new start!

The lonlieness of the damaged
This will be tough to write, it's probably the most honest thing I'll ever write and to those that know me in real life - accept it for what it is and next time you see me just give me a hug and say yeah we kind of figured anyway. So, yesterday was weird for… Continue reading The lonlieness of the damaged

Tidying the mind = contentment
Wow, it's been a bit of a rollercoaster of a summer! I decided to have another go at that there online dating thing, and truthfully I don't know what I expected this time round. I think I entered into it a little more sceptical and that's why there was such a daft profile, almost a… Continue reading Tidying the mind = contentment
Impossible Voyage for a Family
I know this will be a hard one to write, it was the basis for a lot of my hurt for a long time but I also recognise it's in the past. For many, getting pregnant and having a family is easy but for others it's difficult and for some like me it just doesn't… Continue reading Impossible Voyage for a Family
