Minds out the gut please it is nothing kinky. I am sure The Geek and his mom are rather glad I am not divulging kinky sex fantasies, hmm although…. no, removes own mind from the gutter and back to what I am fantasizing about.
But first due to my small obsession with words I need to explain why I chose the word fantasy and not dream or even... Can I share a little fantasy?

But first due to my small obsession with words I need to explain why I chose the word fantasy and not dream or even... The bookcase of awesomeness.
I have wanted a Pac-man bookcase ever since I saw a link to one on line.
Last weekend Yme and his brothers set about to make one. Wood was bought and strapped to the roof of our little fiesta. Power tools were purchased. Designs were drawn and much noise was made. They got it all together and then during the week sanding started.
Yesterday was the last... 1 year
So it has been a year since I moved to Cape Town and Yme started our lives together. What a year it has been. Here is the run down
The kids and I moved to Durbanville and Yme was thrown into the deep end with 2 kids. I think the kids and Yme have adapted very well.
Had to put our ART dreams on hold for finacial reasons, it is still unfinished and I will...
Blog challenge – Your Wishes
I went with Annatjie to fetch the ashes last Friday. A strange experience. Annatjie amazes me with her strength and ability to cope and keep her composure at times when I am sure you would be scrapping me off the floor as a blubbering mess. I just kept thinking, no mother should have to do this.
The family now have to decide what to do with the ashes....
When words fail
I love words. I love reading them, writing them, playing with them and most of all learning new ones makes me happy. But there is nothing like being faced with wide open gapping hole of someone’s grief to feel that all groupings of vowels and consonants are inadequate.
Being a Palliative care nurse and working with many patients and families facing...
In Memory – Natasha
Yme’s sister died last week – gosh I can’t even bear to type those words, to see them like that in black and white. How can they possibly be true? How is it that one year after I met vibrant alive gorgeous redhead that we were saying goodbye?
The first time I met Natasha was when I came down to Cape Town with the pinklets to do our ART...
Do you wear a watch?
I have worn a watch since I was about Rachel’s age. Every single day, it is part of my comfort zone. I know what the time is. This does not mean that I am usually on time it just means I know how late I am.
I lost my watch recently at the beach and am at a total loss without it. It was a very nice Fossil with a light pink mother of pearl face. A bit...
Our first Valentines
So this was our first Valentines. The kids and I made cards and heart biscuits. We joined the digital age and Rachel sent her card to friends via mms.I made all our dinner into heart shapes and we had Pavlova for pudding. I also got lovely roses, my first Valentines flowers. Very special... I have great parents
My parents came to visit this weekend, the Pinklets were so excited to see them. They have such a special relationship. Everyone else fades into the background in Caleb’s life when his Bumpa is around.
My dad brought them a bird feeder he had made them and they are delighted to sit at the dinning room window to watch the little birds come to the...
2nd chances
Valentines day is coming up and this is The Geek and my first valentines day. Yes scandalous I know, knocked up and ready to pop, unmarried and not even a year together. Oh well
This made me think about second chances. One of the biggest things that I was worried about when coming out of such a disastrous marriage and failed relationship was why I landed up...
