The Things I'd Tell You ― I've been reading East of Eden recently. I'd read a run of Chick Lit, and while it's good for my heart, eventually I need to immerse myself in something that challenges me a little more. Something that makes me think - makes me feel something ...

The Things I'd Tell You ― Well this might be the longest I've gone without blogging. Still struggling a bit, so haven't really wanted to come here and dump all of that again. ∙ My anxiety has kicked up a notch lately, so I've been immersed even more in my 'therapy' ...

Listen

The Things I'd Tell You ― Right now I am laying on my bed, with the air conditioner working away above me. I smell fresh bread rolls, straight out of the oven. I hear Samuel laughing and Alexander chatting away to his father. Occasionally, Joel's voice breaks through as he...

Clouds

The Things I'd Tell You ― It's raining here in South East Queensland. Pouring. It rained all of last week while we were up in Caloundra on our holiday and we seemed literally to bring it back with us - the rain chased us home. ∙ The forecast is for several more ...

You have to read this

You have to read this

The Things I'd Tell You ― Forget the hiatus. I put up a closed sign 2 days ago and have had too much to say. But this. You have to read this. ∙ It's not mine. I've written similar. But it's perfect. It's beautiful. It's horrifying. It needs to be read. And shared....

Admit it

The Things I'd Tell You ― I've seen news stories just about everywhere over the past couple of days, about the confirmation that the remains found in England back in September are indeed the remains of Richard III, who was killed {rather horribly} more than 600 years ago....

Wobb-a-lies on {Not really} Wordless Wednesday

The Things I'd Tell You ― We purchased a coupon to take the boys to Alma Park Zoo a few months ago. It expired on Saturday and of course, it wasn't until Saturday that we got around to using it. We had been saving it to use in the last weekend before school went back here ...

Giving it a Go

The Things I'd Tell You ― I have seen, over the years so many Photo-A-Day challenges. I've never felt even nearly tempted to join in. Not really my thing. And until the 1st of this year, I wasn't even on Instagram, and I knew that that was how people seemed to share their...

No "even-though"

No "even-though"

The Things I'd Tell You ― I remember a few years after we got married, I reflected on how the 'me' of that time was not the 'me' that Joel married. Not what he'd signed up for. I'd lost a baby, I'd suffered from Post Natal Depression, an Anxiety disorder as well as...
