Just one thing

Some nights watch the moon travel across the sky and listen to the hum of the house and wonder before i go to sleep what i can do differently tomorrow. Its not difficult to get distracted by a million things. But im sure just one thing would make a difference

Home

Wish i had a rowing boat

then with all this rain, we could row up our lane .. in fact its not that bad, only parts of the road are flooded.. middle of night last night, before another heavy downpour, heard an owl outside, so close it almost sounded like it was on the roof, wondered if it had sneaked in […]

worst moment today..

reallising the car i flashed that went round a lorry parked on narrow road in the dusk, strait at us, was a police car.. wondering if im in trouble or they see funny side of this and best, a few including discovering that tasmanian devils are being relocated successfully to an island called maria island […]

Woke up in early hours and watched the Disney film, ‘Snow Buddies’. Thought it was a lovely film but looking up one of the quotes from the film, discovered the sadness connected to the making of it. Talon “Remember. Life may lead you where you least expect, but have faith, and you’ll know exactly where […]

It has been some months now, since we lost our wonderful little pussy cats, still cant believe they wont come round a corner, everytime i think things get easier some picture or mark they left behind, makes me a bit sad. find it hard to believe that animals dont go to heaven. i wonder if […]

Do one thing everyday that scares you

Far from the city

Far from the city thinking, lying here on my dusty student bed a corner of sky through my window night air disturbed by a crafty fox rummaging though the bins, of what i am missing. Dreaming of shady lanes on a rustling autumn day, a bite in the air, winter threatening summer lingering … smelling […]

Sewing machine and buzzards

Happily sewing away with my little singer sewing machine.. when small rumble and everything metal underneath the needle fell apart. When my son was very little he used this machine like a racing car, revving the foot part and it never really recovered. But otherwise a beautiful late summer day, noticed 3 or 4 buzzards […]

Awesome Nona’s

Chatted to two extraodinary nonagenarians .. one busy at an allotment and another also helping her family do gardening who had flown over to visit them here in the UK – from Australia. They were both full of life and mischievous, amazing ladies probably with incredible stories to tell. One of them said that maybe the […]

Wouldnt this be lovely

…”despite the uncertainty, the trouble you face is very temporary. Somehow, this week, a rather wonderful, lasting change for the better will begin to come about. Big changes are about to happen”

Trauma, Psychosis and Spirituality – what is the Connection?

“When the Buddhists speak of the Void, they aren’t speaking of something negative, but rather about an ultimate reality that has everything we need. Looked at from a more human perspective, when we empty the mind in meditation, we find it is actually full (which like to think is what being “mindful” is really about.) “….continued […]

Thinking out loud

As an engineer, working every day following processes and methods to design code to find and remove faults, travelled and learned lots of things, made money for us and for the business but felt when moved on – became me again, poorer but happier Wondered if it’s possible a flowchart will figure out how to break a […]

Kenny

Our lovely cat passed away yesterday evening. He had a bad heart and suddenly in the morning lost the use of his back legs. I had to make the decision and am heartbroken. It is difficult to say much more but he was very loved. Life is short, make the most of every day

Changing Landscape

South Downs and landscape changing in new South Downs Park

perhaps its about distraction

The meteorite falling to Earth on Friday seemed like something from a film and heard that if impact had been two minutes earlier it would have hit Malmo in Sweden – huge distance in 2 minutes but also heard the north of UK was on same latitude, so a subtle shift in angle and some […]

Waddesdon Manor

Beautiful Renaissance style Chateau built by Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild waiting for an army of groundsmen to make it sparkle again. We visited on a late winter afternoon, with statues in the grounds still covered and shutters drawn but still possible to imagine how this incredible chateau must look in the spring with shutters open and fountains […]

3000 people in confined space

… and then flu Some wise old bird said to me while i was sitting nearby wishing i was home in bed.. my head feeling like it was going to explode and eyes feeling like burning coal mines disappearing into the center of my head but on stalks at the same time.. if thats possible […]
