Obligatory I’ve had a haircut selfie! Ah the small joys of life in this weird world. #haircut #pandemiclife #grateful #feelinglikemeFound some friends and good times out at Queen Elizabeth Country park today. Beautiful sunshine and amazing assault course for the not so small ones. All exhausted now! #sunnysaturday #friends #blueskies #queenelizabethcountrypark #sleepnowTook the sad processing big emotion boy on my walk this morning. Ever hopeful that the joy of early morning freshness and wonder at bunnies and squirrels and the smells of spring will lodge deep in his soul and help him as he walks through this life. Also lovely to have chats without the shouting as we meandered around the green green world. #happyfriday #beauty #nourishment #joy #chats #parentingBeautiful child free morning out to celebrate another year of my favourite and best. Also had our first meal out since September. Ahhhhh. Happy joy all round. Happy Birthday to the brilliant Husbandface. #birthday #fun #joy #happy #dayoffIt’s a three cup of tea book reading afternoon around here. After a morning outside I feel less bad that the boys have been entertained by audio books, a film and the convenient arrival of a long anticipated computer game. It’s a good book :) #reading #tea #outsourcedparentingAnd in the midst of exhausted plodding on there are mornings of sunrise, light on the green growth going on in our woods, hope dancing on the horizon, resurrection happening over and over again in this beautiful world. #tired #joy #exhausted #smiling #weary #hope #resurrectionArchives

On writing.
It’s Saturday morning and the sun is shining. I feel the need for one of those checking in with myself posts, one of those looking around at the view posts. This morning the boys are out with some other guys … Continue reading
Acedia 3
It’s the final post in this mini series on acedia (which I still have no idea how to pronounce…). Today we’re looking on how to deal with it and how some kind of recovery might be found. “We … Continue reading
Advent 20
Advent leaves us aching and longing for more. The reality is that in 5 days time we will have a slightly disappointing, possibly stressful day. It’s a day that is built up to for so long that it can’t ever live … Continue reading
Advent 2
gloomy mornings, matted grey clouds cover the sky, sunshine battles, rays break through, streams of light fall on distant sea.
Day 30
Thankful for… Our beach hut induction, sitting in the sun gazing at the pretty sparkly sea, coming home and listening to Martin Sheen on Desert Island discs with husbandface, both of us dissolving into tears at various points. Head here … Continue reading
Back to life…
