Hang on in there…

Unexpectedly unexpected, when you will think there is no hope left, life will surprise you with a change! At the beginning of the week,I realised that July was about to come to an end. Not sure what has happened this month but time seems to have simply slipped by through the good weather spell. IContinue reading “Hang on in there…”

Éire, nine years!

With the blink of an eye, 28th of June is here again, which means I am celebrating my ninth anniversary in Ireland! After nine years, this is the first time I am not on Irish soil. I have to say it is well justified as I am in Catalonia celebrating my dad’s eightieth! A dateContinue reading “Éire, nine years!”

Bloom!

A mini heat wave is here, although rain is on its way to us, once again. The first day of June is not looking too good despite being the first day of the meteorological summer; it is what it is though. Who knows, the astronomical summer may bring the much desired sunshine. Fingers and toesContinue reading “Bloom!”

Gardening, soul haven…

Delighted to say that I am well ahead of my schedule, as everything is ready to get my April blog post published.

I am still committed to get twelve blog posts out thisContinue reading “Gardening, soul haven…”

One cannot help it but think that Imbolc never happened this year, that Saint Brigid took off to the Caribbean, that the Child of PragueContinue reading “It is what it is…”

Be brave, listen to yourself!

Exciting times indeed: a new year is here which means twelve months ahead of writing, twelve months of empty blank pages to fill in with my words, twelve months of sharing my life experiences and my humble pieces of advice. As I was wrapping 2025, relishing the successful year of blogging, embracing the messages ofContinue reading “Be brave, listen to yourself!”

Time to pause, disconnecting…

I cannot believe that I am working on my last blog post for 2025, which means I have managed to meet my target of ten this year! Not only that but I have achieved the super figure of fifty blog posts published since I started my writing adventure back in March 2020 thanks to Covid.Continue reading “Time to pause, disconnecting…”

Connections, reconnecting…

October is coming to an end, and I naively thought I had plenty of time to work on my blog post number eight! At least, I still have a few days left before the deadline although I can feel the pressure on me. I may go for a blog a month next year, as itContinue reading “Connections, reconnecting…”
