It’s hard to believe we are in October. In some ways this year seems to have dragged, and yet I wonder where the time has gone? I spoke to a fellow parent at the school drop off on Monday and we both agreed that each week just starts with a bit of a groan rightContinue reading “Covid Work Life Boundaries”

The Power of Nature
I’m not a green finger and gardening generally is not my thing. But… I do love the majestic beauty of a sunflower under the clear blue sky in summer. One of the benefits of lockdown is we were home most of this summer to nurture our garden and so we decided to plan some sunflowerContinue reading “The Power of Nature”
COVID-19 Memories
Amidst all the anxiety, isolation and loss this year, can we find something we can be positive about. What will you take away from COVID-19.

Going Retro at the Drive-In
I remember the drive-in with the wired speakers, the crackling sound and the big queues for snacks. Well it’s back and its even better!
Covid makes the distance feel real…
When I moved to the United Kingdom from Australia it was on a whim. One moment it was an idea, and the next it was happening. I was single, a little lost, and looking for some adventure. I didn’t think it would be long term. Thirteen years later I’m still here, but now married withContinue reading “Covid makes the distance feel real…”
Housework Humdrum?
Anyone else not feeling the love for housework right now? Even more so than pre Covid-19?
