the phoenix: December 2014

http://slightlysinged.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html

Tuesday, 30 December 2014. All I Have To Do Is Dream. A ukelele has arrived in our home! The inspired Christmas gift from L to both of us. It is red and oh so small! The main problem is my hands are quite big and the frets of a ukelele are small. Watch this space to see if I decide I really must get a guitar again after all these years. Tuesday, 23 December 2014. Easily the best part of Christmas. Okay, loaves are in, soup needs blending. Late lunch today, I think! Sunday, 14 December 2014. Exploring las...

the phoenix: Thinning Fog

http://slightlysinged.blogspot.com/2015/05/thinning-fog.html

Friday, 22 May 2015. Also, I went to meet other people bereaved by suicide on Wednesday, a small warm group, a space to talk offered as part of a festival of death and dying in our neighbouring town, called Pushing Up Daisies. A marvellous encounter, and the meeting of a need I didn't even know I had. I hope we may meet again. This weekend my brother and my sister will be here. First time we'll all have been together since my Mum's funeral. Wishing you and the sibs well for the weekend. Future of my past.

the phoenix: January 2015

http://slightlysinged.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html

Wednesday, 21 January 2015. About six inches today. It fell and it fell and it fell. We didn't go anywhere. Watched from the window as our car and garden disappeared under soft white curves. And snot, which has hijacked my life for a week now. I will spare you the details. Tissues have been a major part of my life. I can't think or feel properly. Yesterday I thought I was really beginning to recover, but the grade of snot has thickened today (sorry I was sparing you the details wasn't I? Future of my past.

the phoenix: March 2015

http://slightlysinged.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, 29 March 2015. Always have fresh flowers in the house. Make kefir - drink kefir. Do some exercises every morning - even for three minutes. Meditate (nearly) every morning - no judgement about the leaping monkey that is my mind. Five minutes in - '. Did you say we were supposed to be doing? Keep remembering to be kind kind kind. Walk every day. Take in something from the walking - the lapwings, the curlews, the light. Sing to yourself, to G and to Mum. This is not forever. Cool Spots And Hot Spots.

the phoenix: Knock Knock

http://slightlysinged.blogspot.com/2015/06/knock-knock.html

Thursday, 4 June 2015. A work opportunity appears to be knocking. The chance to start gently with a day or so a week, and see how it goes. Working with children again. Amazed. Grateful. Blessed. The day the weather changed. Sounds good, all the best with it! 6 June 2015 at 18:22. So good to see this. The barometer is really rising. 6 June 2015 at 18:24. So pleased for you. 7 June 2015 at 20:45. Hooray for hopeful news! 8 June 2015 at 22:14. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Cool Spots And Hot Spots.

the phoenix: September 2014

http://slightlysinged.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html

Tuesday, 30 September 2014. Last day of September. Thursday, 18 September 2014. Did you get that last text? Says a woman across the aisle, very loudly into her mobile phone. The couple in the seats in front do not appear startled. An area of Manchester Victoria Station under development is crammed full of cranes and diggers of various sizes, yellow and red with names like Ultra Boom and Liebherr The sky's the limit,. Saturday, 13 September 2014. Friday, 5 September 2014. First week of September. View my ...

the phoenix: November 2014

http://slightlysinged.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

Thursday, 27 November 2014. I could leave it at that. Remembering G telling me how she liked fog. The dampness on my coat, the tiny droplets that day. From G's window another valley she often looked out at while I got my shoes and coat on at the end of the session. Even this time last year. Still then. To be seen, understood, accepted and loved in one's rawness and vulnerability a rare and precious gift. To lose this a raw and aching loss. It goes on and I go on. Wednesday, 26 November 2014. In the end,.

As I have said often enough, I write for myself in multiplicate,. A not unfamiliar phenomenon on the horizon of shimmering deserts.". Our imagination flies;. We are its shadow. On the earth.". Under the fire star. The rain doesn't care. The beauty we love. Running after my hat. Return to the center. Lotus in the mud. Journal of a nobody. In case of actual death. In a dark time. How to save the world. Das ding an sich. Beyond the fields we know. Alive on all channels.

A bitch about Brittany: A song for the Chaos

http://abitchaboutbrittany.blogspot.com/2012/05/song-for-chaos.html

Monday, May 28, 2012. A song for the Chaos. Some places are just special. And it is hard to explain why. I have tried your patience for a while now, keeping on about this particular place. I have tried to get it out of my system by writing a song about it and performing it on video, but I make no promises. I expect it will be cropping up again from time to time. Labels: chaos du gouet. Song for the chaos. Cant crop up too often! May 28, 2012 at 7:38 PM. June 16, 2012 at 7:46 PM. So heres a big THANK YOU!
