I feel like all the current negative news, the ongoing disclosure of the existence of a whole dark underground network is starting to divide humankind and forcing us all to take a side. Something big is coming, it’s just hard to see what and how all this is going to evolve into. These are scaryContinue reading “Negative headlines and the importance of self-preservation”

Menopausal Monday #14
#familymatters #britishcaravanholiday Today I woke up in Kessingland, in Suffolk, by the beach. We’re going back home after a four days’ caravan family holiday. Holidays the British way. Falling asleep to the wind and crackling of the metal underneath, and waking up to pouring rain or to the sea gulls claws promenading above. In Portugal,Continue reading “Menopausal Monday #14”
Menopausal Monday #13
#possiblerantalert Ok, it WAS yesterday. But it is surely Monday somewhere on a parallel universe. As I grow further into menopause, I feel this working full time malarky is getting less bearable. I grow more tired of this routine and frustrated by what more pleasurable things I could be doing with my time. (Bloody billsContinue reading “Menopausal Monday #13”
Anyone’s ideal day
Describe your most ideal day from beginning to end. I’d say my (and probably anyone’s ideal day) is realistically one where everything flows without friction. We all get these days, we just don’t tune in as deep and often as we’d like. Those days where everyone agrees with you, says yes to your requests, people smileContinue reading “Anyone’s ideal day”
Subtitled dog walks
Admit it, you do it too. If you are a dog owner, you know what I mean. All those inevitable “in-dog-mode” thoughts that we have when we’re walking them. I do that every time. I mean it’s not already bad enough that we talk to them as if they’re toddlers, we actively try and getContinue reading “Subtitled dog walks”
Menopausal Monday #12
#possiblerantalert Outer thighs, inner thighs, the whole area seems to be screeming for (and I know how this is going to sound) continuous open-leg stretch. Starting to think an everyday end of day yoga session might help. My biggest problem, and probably the biggest problem for most women is that the job requires being satContinue reading “Menopausal Monday #12”
Social media profiling
We all do it. Even if subconsciously. Likes, follows and comments can tell a lot about an individual. Even the absence of interaction says something about a person. Surely you’ve thought about it before. It happens when we put our contacts circle into categories. The list can vary and could be shorter or longer. SurelyContinue reading “Social media profiling”
Menopausal Monday #11
#rantalert You know that crescendo rage you feel building up when someone talks to you like you have a learning disability? I am an absolute advocate for people to be addressed politely but some people do it in such a way it’s offensive (if anyone is totally entitled to feel offended is menopausal women). There’sContinue reading “Menopausal Monday #11”
The feeling of being proven right
There are a lot of pleasant feelings a human being can have but being proven right must be one of the most fulfilling ones. If you follow this and the other one of my posts you probably remember that I recommended a piece of sensible reading (of course, sensible, I don’t share anything else), whichContinue reading “The feeling of being proven right”
The one that applies the mini-max rule
What’s your dream job? My dream job is the one that I put the minimum effort for a maximum fun. Still looking…
