Mother and Daughter

June 25, 2023
Mother and Daughter I wake to hear you crying, calling out to me. I wearily open my eyes, it’s only half past 3. I sigh, roll over, cover my ears, trying to ignore. But your persistent need for me, just grows more and more. Eventually I go to you, and see you’ve wet the bed.…

    Deep
    June 25, 2023
    You can’t avoid it, it’s all over the news. Every clip and video, millions of views. Varying opinions, not all of them healthy. Is all this attention because they were so wealthy? Some people say it serves them right, others post a meme. These situations aren’t as simple as they seem. Just becaus...

    Grief on Hold
    December 28, 2022
    Wow, it has been an age again! I really must work writing here into part of my routine until it becomes a habit. So anyway, Christmas has come and gone. It was nice. It had all the ingredients of a great Christmas - happy people, nice gifts, great food, fun and frivolity. But it did…

    The Cookie Monster   I'm so determined this time, nothing can stand in my way. I'll give up the chocolate and wine, and lose all this weighed I have gained.   I will stay to group every week, and always follow the plan. Each plate will be full of speed, I'll soon be a brand…

    oh god it’s been ages again since I wrote. I’m so bad at this. I will try to get into better habits of writing. Life is fine, pretty standard, just ticking along. The kids are off school for the summer which is great for me - one less thing to think about. Especially with Liam’s…

    Insomnia (Poem)
    April 5, 2022
    Here is a little poem for you all.   Insomnia If I fall asleep now I will have 8 hours, That’s more than enough. Most nights I only get 4 or 5, And wake up feeling rough. If I fall asleep now I will have 7 hours, That’s still, I’d say, a surplus. But even…

    Energy
    April 5, 2022
    I have had a busy few days. It has been good on the most part. I have felt so fatigued for so so long and I finally feel I have some energy back! I am sure it is down to actually getting out of the house and doing things. On Saturday it was my (ex)…

    Oh well my intention to write in this diary every day is going well.......not! I dunno - I have just felt so exhausted recently. I had Covid in early February and ever since then I have been exhausted all the time. I have always been such a night owl, rarely going to sleep before midnight.…
