new year, who you?
Read more: new year, who you?I can’t remember the last time I could breathe. Breathe. The simplest necessity of life. Yes, I took in oxygen for the purpose of, well, not dying, but not to live. I just needed enough air to get me through. After a tumultuous 2021, I had high hopes for what 2022 was going to bring…

smoke & mirrors.
Read more: smoke & mirrors.I’m a runner. Very much not of the athletic kind, wine run maybe? When things get hard or overwhelming, I struggle to compartmentalise and rationalise things in my mind. It can all be too much. I’ve mentioned before I feel things deeply – A blessing and a curse, a great and a not so great…

you’re the shit.
Read more: you’re the shit.When is that last time you told someone, you appreciate them? More so showed them. Do you let people know when you appreciate them or when you are grateful?

this is me.
Read more: this is me.“I am brave, I am bruised, I am who I meant to be, this is me. Look out ’cause here I come…” Things happen, life changes you. They say people don’t change. They do.

recovering arsehole.
Read more: recovering arsehole.Yesterday I was told we have a toxic office environment and I am a big part of the reason. My initial reaction is shock, a few tears and then rolls in the overanalyzing, overthinking… replaying all interactions, the self-doubt, throw in some anger. Sure, I can be a bitch from time to time but Toxic?…

the lost years.
Read more: the lost years.The last two and a half years have given more to the authors of history books than it has to the writers of diaries. Decades from now scholars will have a wealth of material for their accounts of this pivotal time, but when the people who lived through it look back on the timelines of…

one world.
Read more: one world.It baffles me the world we’re currently living in. I don’t even think baffles is the right word? Flummox? Astound? Discombobulate? Whatever…. I really really really could have never foreseen that I would deem freedom sipping a latte in a takeaway cup while perusing the grocery isles, not having to reapply makeup after every mask…
