Over the years, my hair constantly has fallen out…eventually it became so much so that I kept thinking its going to all go. My brush kept getting full of hair, as did the bathroom floor…yuck! Hair is in a constant cycle of growth, rest and renewal – it is natural for everybody to lose some […]
What I am Loving…Puddles!
Ok, I am not loving the wet cold Spring weather we are experiencing at the moment, but what I am loving are the rather large puddles which have appeared….particularly along local roads! I just can’t help it…if I see a puddle, just have to drive through it…unless of course there is some poor person standing […]
Print Print Print
We live in a digital world now and as a result, the images we capture as part of our lives never make it into print. I am guilty of it…I have a camera with me at all times, whether it be one of my fuji digital cameras, or just my iphone. I take hundreds of […]

But once inside, there are people everywhere…yet it’s not near the Christmas crush […]
The Big “C”
So I have Thyroid Cancer…or at least I did…just over six weeks ago, I underwent surgery to complete remove my thyroid due to a biopsy showing a cancerous nodule. You would think that the fact that last year my husband faced and survived a liver transplant, that the powers that be would let us enjoy […]
Joy of Colour
Why is it that a trip to the hair dresser is such a great “pick me up”? And tell me why is it that a fringe seems to grow so much faster then the rest? I was feeling run down, and my hair colour had faded with that dreaded regrowth, so my appointment today couldn’t […]
