Morning all.
Well, after a few stressful and hectic days, I have decided that today, Friday 17th September is a day for ME!
Once I've done a little longer on the pc, on with the walking boots, warmer jacket, rucksack and cameras and off for a nice walk.
Just found the little chat feature on Goddess Circle - great to be able to talk 'live' to other Goddesses.
Catch you later.
With love. xx

I went out ....
... but my hormones are all over the place, almost had 2 road accidents, couldn't concentrate, tired, achy and generally fed up - hope this gets better because it's making me cross (vicious circle), I'm normally a very happy, positive person - God help anyone who gets in my way at the moment grrrr....
Please Angels and Guides, make my life more positive from this moment on.
Blessed be. xxx

Still here, procrastinating ....
I've promised myself umpteen times this morning that I will get up out of this chair, get smartened up and go out for a ride or walk.
Guess what?
.... I'm still sat here!
Bad day today, need a lift up, some positivity and motivation.
Might as well go back to bed.

Stuck in a rut today
Phew, last 18 hour or so have been the pits, sorry to sound so negative but I feel both physically and emotionally drained.
My arms, legs, arms and hands all ache - sure it's the menopause thingie, hormones etc. but even to type is quite painful - I've typed for almost 40 years and it's never hurt like this before. Can't find a position where my legs are comfy.
To top it all, the voluntary job I do twice a week, I went last night and this b..ch of a woman had, without telling, explaining or even consulting with me, taken all my admin tasks away because she wants to CONTROL the way things are done from now on, she's quite new in the post and she is a CONTROL FREAK. I went to see the boss and had a bit of a blubber, I was/am cross about it but I put the tears down to hormones (of course!) He didn't seem to understand, but he's a man, why would he?
So spoke to another guy, he's sweet, we talked it through and it seemed better then and he even gave me a big hug at the end, which was especially nice lol.
I can't get this silly woman and her controlling out of my head at the moment, I know it's wrong, negative and all that stuff and perhaps I have taken it personally but she drives me nuts and I wish she had never got the post - the guy who was doing the job before her was much better, more human and better at the job, she doesn't have a f.....g clue what she's doing. Still, she doesn't want any more help from me, obviously, I only have 5 years experience doing her job combined with mine, what would I know - so, I'll stand back and watch her sink or swim - wonder which it will be?
Right, pass the vitamins and the painkillers, all this negativity isn't good for my aching bones....

New Week, New Day, New Start
Morning all.
Well, it's a bright and breezy day here today, gale force winds and torrential rain forecast for later but I won't be disheartened. Some people get really down when it rains but think positively, without rain the plants and trees would struggle as would nature in general and ultimately, so would we; just think of the dried up reservoirs and hosepipe bans of the summer. So go out and celebrate rain :-)
Busy and eventful weekend. Got the girls back to school today, first day of the new term ~ yes, peace and quiet. Love 'em to bits but this does at least give me a little more ME time.
Plans for today then. Had soya bread and manuka honey for breakfast, about to have a drink of something ~ haven't made up my mind yet. Then meditation; hang out washing (ah the wind will dry it so nicely ~ got to remember to take it in before the rain comes though). Vacuum etc. then off out for a ride/walk. I'm interested in old churches and architecture so combine that with nature and a compact camera and I should be able to show you some nice piccies later on.
Hope you all have a great day.
With love xx

Male Menopause - does it exist?
Just been chatting to a friend, her partner has been exhibiting lots of characteristics of a male menopause today. They were moving child's bed around from one bedroom to another, a chest of drawers got in the way so it was lobbed down the stairs, complete without even emptying it. He's had a temper like vesuvius, erupting for the slightest thing and more ...
Makes me glad I'm a woman alone :-)
