I can’t think of Patrick without smiling, you know that? For a friend with benefits, he’s actually one of my favourite memories. Our first ‘date’ was at my Mom’s apartment. I was divorced, broke and had moved in with Mom to save money. She was away that night – going to a concert with herContinue reading “Good Date #1”

Reign in the crazy
Full disclosure, guys – I used to be batsh*t crazy. When my first love broke up with me (we were giving it a 2nd chance in our early 20’s), I wasn’t able to handle it. I couldn’t accept that Matt could just…leave me… So instead of acknowledging it had ended and moving graciously on…I wentContinue reading “Reign in the crazy”

April 23, 2019 Hey you, I’m at work and I really love this job.

Friend-zoned and gutted about it. Here’s my poem – written when I was 27. “ThisContinue reading “This is the last time”

My friend Troy has been single a long time. Like…a really, REALLY LONNNNNNNGGG time. So, me being me – I had to step in and help the guy.

October 14, 2013 Hey, It’s been a very busy week and a bit since I last wrote. The last time I wrote, I thought my emotions (mostly coming hard and fast and out of nowhere for no reason at all) and erratic hormones threatened to do me in. Seriously. But I’m okay. Praise God, I’mContinue reading “slowly getting better…and my trip to Narrogin”
Why I love Alun
June 13, 2012 First of all, let me tell you he drives me crazy. He drives me freakin’ nuts! He takes my frayed nerves and joyfully shakes them with all his might at the worst of times. But he always does it with a ‘cheeky chappy’ grin. So I cant stay mad for long. WeContinue reading “Why I love Alun”
