I woke up this morning and staggered out to the computer as I normally do - shuffling slippers, hair on end and Real Mum’s Mug in hand.  I was looking exceptionally glamorous this morning, wearing my decorative black bags beneath my eyes. 

The computer had obviously had a hard night as it took ages to start up, and my eyes had glazed over by the time it was ready to play,  I went through the normal ...

Today is Anzac Day and the last post has sounded.   It always makes me cry with its plaintive sound.  When I think of the Anzacs the Last Post is always playing in my head.

I never did decide what I wanted to be when I grew up.  Did you?

I remember going to our Careers Night which was really just a large hall full of trestle tables filled with leaflets.  Pick up a leaflet and keep walking.  There was no such thing as careers counselling.  I remember going home with a fistful of leaflets covering everything from florist to prison warden.  I can tell you now that neither of those ...

Some days it just doesn’t pay to get out of bed.  Today was one of those days.

I am a morning person.  I love the quiet start to the day.  Now that it is autumn I love the foggy, crisp mornings leading into warm, serene days.  When I woke this morning I had an unsettled feeling.  It doesn’t happen often but sometimes when I wake my neck is prickling already, anticipating a difficult day.
