Review of experiences and how they fit into a bigger picture
Overwhelm – how it can creep up on us Reading the latest Psychologies Magazine (December 2018), I was drawn to the self-analysis quiz – ‘What’s the Root Cause of your Overwhelm?’ Answering the multiple choice questions I found I scored highest on ‘Perfectionism’. Reading through the other 3 categories I could just have easily identified…
How has the year panned out for you so far? I’m starting to follow age-old advice to pay more attention to the seasons of the year. Working for myself I find the structure helps. More importantly, I am aligning to natural energies, by doing so, which seems to make sense to me. The seasons seem…
It’s that time of year. If you have an apple tree you will be wondering what to do with all those apples! I have an apple tree and I have been trying to stop the dogs eating all the apples. It’s not because I begrudge them the odd apple or ten, you understand. I think…
I have taken on a 30 day blogging challenge! Encouraged by one of my friends, Susan who’s a coach, and a book by Nikki Pilkington 30 Day Blogging Challenge.

Over the last few years I have ‘baby sat’ a pet sheep for a friend of mine. The sheep doesn’t have a name although he is often referred to as the ‘old yin’. When I first met him a couple of years ago, he was around 12 or 13 years old. This summer, I took…
Amazing Nature A few years ago I was driving home from work and noticed an oystercatcher nesting. It was amazing because it was on the central reservation of a motorway at the junction of a busy roundabout, in full view of anyone driving past. I soon discovered that it returned every year to the same…
Logan taking for the hillsWell, I was making great progress with NDT and wanted to tell everyone about it. Then losing each of the hounds in the space of a week stopped me in my tracks. I’ve always thought it was extremely important to share experiences with other people, including ‘lessons learned’. I am constantly…
