Day #93: The Positivity Wave
Following on from Jonetta over at the Blue Mood Cafe and Megs over at Chocolate ‘n’ Waffles, I thought today’s post should be centred around the positive things I have to be grateful for, in my life right now.

Day #92: Taking A Stance …
Please, take a moment to read this—JK ROWLING SPEAKS OUT—and then if you have any lingering doubts, we can talk (I hope) in a reasoned, calm manner, or not.

There are three on a single pine pole, supplying power to the YWCA on the other side of our privacy hedge. The pole sits... Continue reading →

Day #87: In The War Zone
I feel like Twitter has become the new Facebook. I left Facebook a couple of years ago because of the dissent, the aggression, the micro-bullying, the constant barrage of general nastiness. I just decided it wasn’t worth trying to connect with people who were not open to listening to other people’s points of view. And... Continue reading →
