As the sun came out I decided that Alban Elfed would be a good day to go for my first walk in the woods since Marmite died. It was a little bitter sweet but I definitely needed the fresh air and to see the start of the changing of the season for myself. Now for … More Walking the Day Away
Or rather Carillion has made me redundant, so I am now a free human. I will miss my boss and colleagues terribly as not only were they great to work with but they believed in me at a time when I didn’t believe in myself and their confidence enabled me to find my self-confidence and … More Dobby is a Free Elf!
But the last eight months have been more exhausting than the previous two years and although the end is now near (there has to be a limit on how long employees can remain employed by an insolvent company) I still do not know exactly when it will be. Which means – since this level of … More I still aten’t dead …
I’m not going to talk much about the last quarter in this post. In fact I’m not going to talk much at all because with everything that’s going on at work and all the other things I’m trying to do at home, I’m pretty much terminally exhausted. So I’m giving you some pictures instead, of … More Kizzia Quarterly – April to June 2017
It is now almost the end of May and this is less of a quarterly and more of a half-ly (if Shakespeare was allowed to make up words, I am too) but I’m not going to let that put me off sharing it with you! I should first say that I wrote most of this … More Kizzia Quarterly – Winter/Spring 2017
I’ve just been swallowed by work and the house, getting poorly, having a tooth out, doing all the visiting of family, and reading and writing that hasn’t included any bloggable content for a while. So my apologies for that! I can’t, however, promise much of an uptick in the blogging stakes over the next 18 … More I Aten’t Dead
It is such a glorious day outside that I’m having trouble staying motivated to the task at hand – trying to complete drafts of my two final pieces of OU course work. Suffice to say I’ve spent more of the day in the sun than behind my keyboard! Having said that I have been getting … More Sunshine and procrastination
I’d almost forgotten I had this blog but I realised I wanted to post some of my poems and other writing and remembered I’d set it up. So, I’m back and I thought I’d post some of the pics I took while I was in Pierrefonds last September – watching the cast films some of … More Neglected but not forgotten
Marmite and I had a brilliant time in Coniston over the long weekend. It was just what the doctor ordered – the B&B was fabulous, the walks were great and I had a lot of time to think and just be by myself and get my head round everything. We walked miles in rain and … More Weekend away
This is a close up of the blossom on a tree in my garden. It is just so beautiful and I am hoping to turn it into a painting on canvas (just got two canvas’s at Aldi for £4 – it is amazing what you can buy there). I definitely think painting is going to … More Flowers and friends
