Dear Donna, I’m falling in love with my friend and it is completely unexpected. I’ve been praying to God for him to bring a good man into my life and all along that ‘good man’ has been someone I’ve known for nearly seven years. We’ve always got on really well but never
Hey! Happy New year! That’s what we say right? I had such high hopes for this year and granted we are only 9 days in but already I am feeling deflated, disengaged and pretty demotivated. And I can’t quite pull myself out of this slump that I have found myself in. But that’s silly right?

Every January I tell myself I’ll change and do things differently this year. And here I am, beginning of January and back to where I was last year. The Blank Diary Fear.

Rummaging through the crumpled heaps thrown on the floor, all my favourite items burnt to cinders. Powerful dressing wasn’t going to be a thing today. I’d have to go it alone. My daughter didn’t question why we travelled to school as a three, why her brother was going to miss the first bell. We watched

On Christmas Day I lost my Grandmother. She had always been the rock in my life and she was my everything. When I wasn’t visiting her in hospital leading up to this loss, I found myself trying to do anything that she had been nagging me to do for weeks. The main thing was cleaning.
What have I learned from the last decade? Well, it’s been a testing one that’s for sure, but it’s also been the most amazing pilgrimage of self discovery I’ve ever been on. I feel like the last decade is where I really became an adult, anything before was part of my youth. In 2010 I
