I have been privileged to be be able to support and care for people who are going through grief. I’ve seen people come and go. I’ve seen elderly couples who have been together for 60+ years say goodbye to each other, I’ve seen sudden tragic loss of people who weren’t ready to go and the... Continue Reading →
Busy Adulting…
It's been a while since I wrote a post. I've been meaning to but life has just kinda got in the way!! I've been doing my best to be a fully functioning adult this summer. It's gone ok really, managed to pull it off really. To some extent. It's been a bit of a roller... Continue Reading →
The way we feel
Pain in a funny old thing It’s comes in two forms; Firstly there’s a physical pain; this can be quantified; 0 being none and 10 being a blunt rusty saw cutting through flesh while you're awake. For some this pain is pure pleasure, for others it’s shear agony. Either way this type of pain can... Continue Reading →

When dates go bad…
Go on a date they said. It'll be fun they said. Nope. Wrong. I've never really dated until this past 12 months. It's all new to me. And it's all been pretty rubbish so far. I've tried the online apps and I've tried the old fashioned way too on a night out. Both not great... Continue Reading →
When non-single people tell you what to do now you’re single…

I know people mean well when they start saying stuff like "you'll find someone one day" or "you've just not met the right person yet" no shit Sherlock because if either of those two things...

Not my reflection
Standing in front of the mirror, I don't recognise who I see, I'm looking closely at the reflection, I see it, but it's not me. You tell me what to wear, You tell me how to be, You tell me what I should feel, You tell me, how to be me. You make me doubt... Continue Reading →
A glimpse into my head

Where everything didn't match (on purpose) and things just whirled around... Continue Reading →
