I’m not religious. I have my reasons. Saying that, when my mum was dying, I was on my knees in my bathroom asking God to save her. I wonder how many other people, who like me are not religious, have looked up to the sky’s and said a silent prayer over the past few weeks……..

I’m here, sipping my Rum and coke (I never drink) wondering where to start. What part to start with. Like most people I think I have bee in shock. My worst nightmares becoming everyday life.  This…what we are living in…COVID-19…. I have been some traumatic stuff. Stuff of nightmares. And some of the things I…

I’m going to see my son When this is all over I’m never going to complain about the school run again. Or moan about the morning argument’s over hair and tights, the smell of French toast and the mad rush to find that bloody shoe. I can’t wait to see my little girl run to…

I can’t write. I have so much to say yet I can’t write. I can feel it coming back but I have been flooded with so many different feelings I don’t even know what to do with. Will I write any time soon? I don’t know. But today’s guest blogger may just get me going…

I have wanted to write for days. I have had so many things I wanted to say but each day things got worse. I actually decided yesterday that I would be closing my blog down tomorrow. I just felt like it was all pointless to be fair. Like….who cares what I think or say when…

International Women’s day is something I like to drink in. I like to read all the posts and see all the greatness. But I am me…which means I like to buck the trends. I just had a look at my post from international women’s day 2019. You can read it HERE. It’s about my mother,…

Today guest blogger is someone who I stand in awe of. She is a woman who fixes others crowns without saying a word, who fights the fight many are afraid to. I met Rachel properly at the FILIA conference where I not only discovered I was a feminist, I also discovered women who I never…

Unprofessional professionals I have been thinking about writing this blog for a while. But I keep thinking…no…. It’s just going to cause a rift. But I can’t hold it in anymore. Will it get me in trouble…? almost definitely….do I care….not even one tiny bit. Because I am sick of it. If you know me,…

This is not a planned blog. This is happening right here and now. I’m away from home for a couple of days and I am staying in an Air B&B. Today is not a good day for me. The 16th and 17th of February are maybe the hardest days of the year for me. Anyway…….

I will start as I do every year…the girl who has opened my eyes to a world that I didn’t know even existed…who has shown me that it’s ok to be different….who faces battles I wouldn’t even know how to face….my daughter…#ICU2020 For #ICU2020 we recognise the work of the many women fighting to end…
