Love Note to Quairading
Sunday Blog 35 – May 8 2022 It’s not that often that a group of women who meet at a Retreat follow through with meeting up again. You know how it goes (especially if you are a Retreat fanatic like I am) – you meet awesome women, exchange numbers or emails and promise to meet …
Finding clarity…
Sunday Blog 34 – 1 May 2022 It’s now been exactly a month since I left my job (see here for the Eerie Quiet blog update) and I am well into the swing of my new life. That new swing of literally never going back to work. And back sharing the housework with darling husband. …
Dial 1 for frustration…
Sunday Blog 33 – 24th April 2022 You know the deal – you ring, you choose the appropriate number for the service you are seeking, the hold music starts. It stops and for a second you are hopeful, but instead the automated voice advises you of all the many things you can do on their …
Enneagram
Sunday Blog 32 – 17th April 2022 (Happy Easter!)

The eerie quiet of the end…
Sunday Blog 30: 3rd April 2022 I’m not quite sure what kind of reception at home I expected after leaving my workplace for the last time. A marching band? A heroine’s welcome? But as I’m guessing Barack Obama experienced from time to time, home is not always the place to relish and celebrate workplace accomplishments. …
The final countdown…
Sunday Blog 29 – 27th March 2022 Perhaps you are kind enough to over-look the fact that last week there was no Sunday Blog. In truth I drafted it – but it didn’t feel quite like my story, so I didn’t hit send. Because staying out of others stories is usually the right call. Our …
Writers Retreats
Sunday Blog 28 – 13th March 2021 This weekend I have been on another Edgewalker Retreat – this time focusing on writing – the last one was a more generic creativity retreat. I love to carve out a designated space where I am focusing on writing. I think it sends a strong message to the …
Holidays at home
Sunday Blog 27 – 6th March 2022 This week has seen some interesting changes in my ongoing process of Transition. It hasn’t all been working out according to my goals in my journal. To seek a bit of refuge I decided a staycation in a Fremantle Hotel was just the thing (see writing nook in …
