Can you feel it coming? As the days are getting cooler, the leaves are all over the ground and nights are getting longer, there is a feeling of change in the air. A feeling of everything starting to settle down for winter. Strangely, I like winter. I love walking the dog on a crisp evening […]

My “Perfect” Life
The beauty of Facebook/Twitter/Instagram… We’re all obsessed with social media. Oh come on. Admit it. How long can you actually go without checking your newsfeed? I posted a photo recently of a very peaceful moment where I was chilling on the sofa with the dog at my feet and the cat on my lap. My […]
Do you need a wee mum?
Harry Potter Tour – here we come This weekend, my 2 kids and I went to the Harry Potter tour. I’ve wanted to go to this for ages and last Christmas my little angels bought 3 tickets as my Christmas gift. Being my usual organised self, we’ve only just got round to going. Plus you […]
Regrets? I’ve had a few…
The signs are all around us Last night, just before I went to bed, a very old photograph fell out of a drawer. It was very strange because there are no other photos in that drawer and I don’t recall ever seeing it in there before. It was a tiny photo booth size photo of […]
See the sunshine in your life
Weekends are for fun I’ve had a great weekend. I really have. I went for a meal out on Friday night, went to town, met some friends and went to a carnival on Saturday and went to a Waterfront festival on Sunday. So I was busy, had fantastic company and truly feel like I’ve had […]
Don’t Give Up
Anyone need a handy woman? I like to consider myself a modern woman. I’ll have a go at most little DIY projects. I have my own drill (check me out!), my own tool kit (and all the bits get put back every time I use it) and I’ve even got adjustable spanners. I have put […]
Assume the Worst
Make the connection Sometimes we assume the worst in any given situation. Like today for example. I had a delivery from a local courier who has been here many times before and has given my dog a lot of fuss and even dog treats. He still barks at her every time she comes (but then […]
Dance in the Rain
Happy? Me? For many years, I believed that I was a miserable cow. I’d been told it often enough by my ex husband and I felt miserable so he was obviously right. Right? Well no actually. I was miserable. That part was true. I thought that this was my lot in life. I thought […]
Working With Me
It’s a minefield out there When you first think about using a hypnotherapist to help you, you will find that by searching on Facebook and Google, that there are hundreds of us around. They all have websites, all have Facebook pages. Some list their qualifications. Some list endless lists of what they can treat. Some […]
Come Fly With Me…
Flying Solo Last week, I flew to Scotland to visit my parents. It’s the first flight I’ve gone on by myself for around 20 years without even my kids for company. It’s also the first flight I’ve ever been on where I have really watched the people around me. And I have to admit, I […]
