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

Posted in Family  11 Comments
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...

Day 25 → The reason you believe you’re still alive today.

As an atheist it is hard to have any other perspective than, I am alive today because I am not dead. Nothing has killed me yet or cause me to kill myself. Full stop. Yes we all have talents and gifts and potential but it does not make us live longer or stop us dying. I was going to end with the first sentence but the longer I thought about this topic the...

Day 24 → Make a playlist to someone, and explain why you chose all the songs. (Just post the titles and artists and letter)

Dear Rachel My spirited child I am blessed to have you, you challenge me in more ways than I thought possible. You are always determined to do things your way. I have no idea where you get that from. You have so much to learn and at times the task of helping you to reach become the wonderful free thinking individual soul that you are seems totally...

Day 07 → Someone who has made your life worth living for

This is going to sound a bit self help bookish but I learnt through all the thing that happened in this last year and a half, that my life had innate value, and that I am worthwhile just because I am. I can not make someone else responsible for my worth. I do have amazing people in my life give it purpose and meaning. My kids, my awesome Geek, my...

Day 05 → Something you hope to do in your life.

I am a day behind so am doing 2 today This one is easy. I want to write a book. Sorry, I know I go on about it a lot. I know a lot of people want to write a book and feel an over-inflated value in what they have to say. Maybe I fall into this category too. The one thing I have, that a lot of people have commented on in both a good and a bad way, is that I...

Day 04 → Something you have to forgive someone for.

Last year I fell in love with someone, who I should not have fallen in love with. I was very very vulnerable, and broken, after my marriage, and I let harmless flirting go too far. All excuses I know, but no one plans to be the other woman. I am not condoning it at all. But I made lots of reasons why it was okay. I projected my need to get out of my...

Day 02 → Something you love about yourself

Why is this one always harder than the things we hate about ourselves? I could be chicken and just talk about my Pink Hair which I love or my new(ish) boobs which I also love but they don’t really tell you much about me do they. Well, in a way I am sure they do, but I need to think of something else for this one. So this page has been open for the...
