• “You Owe Me”

  I love Church, me. I love going because even just being in the building makes me feel at ease. I love listening to the Sermons, because I always learn something that’s really important. One Sermon in the past talked about us all being sauce bottles and that we wouldn’t know what we were really like…

• What is a song or poem that speaks to you and why?

  As someone who LOVES TO SING and equally loves to listen to music (I love R&B, Soul, Gospel, Christian bands, Rap, Hip Hop, Rock songs that make you want to dance and some ‘easy listening’ Artists like my boy Ed Sheeran, Newton Faulkner, Tracey Chapman and of course the little hottie that he is John…

• New Year’s Eve

  Raaaaaa. Where to even begin? So much has happened in the last 4-6 weeks, I don’t even know how to tell you all about it without going on a huge RANT and boring you to death, lol. Let’s just say it’s been an emotional rollercoaster that I have wanted to jump off many times, but…

• The heart of my Memoir

  I signed onto a free online class about Memoir writing today. It was difficult to concentrate solely on the class and not look around the room or let my mind drift off to other things. Something I picked up on was finding the heart of my Memoir. The Lecturer said her Memoir started out as…

• Worth diamonds

  Justin and I have been friends since we were 17, I think. We met on Easter Camp and he was the 1st ever boy to ask for my number. Before the internet and mobile phones, we all had landlines and omg the excitement of a boy calling for me was next level. Justin rang almost…

• The time a homeless man gave me money

  I’ve had enough of hurting, I’ve had enough of crying so today, let’s go back to 2008 and re-visit a memory that makes me smile, ok? I had moved back to Perth (woohoo) while still married to my first husband to go back to Uni. We’d searched like maniacs for an apartment for me and…

• Sarah from the bench

  The entire week had been full of sunshine and rainbows. The end of winter was GLORIOUS in that it was bright, not hot (woohoo) and such lovely weather for going out and about in the sunshine and cool breeze. My favourite weather. I agreed to meet my new friend Chris for lunch at his work.…

• These are a few of my favourite things

  I’ve cried EVERY SINGLE DAY since my Dad passed away and I can’t keep blogging about my grief. Although I feel it every day – a heavy rock on my heart, reminding me my Dad is GONE and I will NEVER see his lovely face again…I need to at least try to write about something…
