Father talked about families bereft of their loved ones. That didn’t make me smile…. in fact the tears didn’t stop, but at that moment I felt the love of my tribe – OLM. People from so many different countries and backgrounds… but MY People. MY Tribe! Wearing a new pair of shoes with heels that […]
After hours of agonising over it, I chose a copper sulphate blue chudidaar. Perfect choice. Flowers for mum. She always gave the flowers she received to church. This time she received them via church. Maundy Thursday is a day for celebration… and celebrate we did!
A gift, not given to me, but meant for me. Hee hee… A house in Madrid, away from the noise, with a garden and a pool. No, dreams are not impossible to achieve.
An early morning surprise. Great company makes for shorter journeys. Top down, music on, getting tooted at while driving. I’ll take that as a compliment to Hermione. Listening to music I’d like to play on the harp. Coming home, trying it and feeling it possible.
A message from mum’s friend after she read about Mum. The last line said that she pictured mum smiling. I felt it too. The dress, the coat, the shoes. All of them had flowers. Flowers to match the world around me. A sign that read “Parking for dogs” with a bowl of water for our […]
Mass at OLM. A family of 4 with the Dad and 2 little boys dressed in waistcoats. Another little kid with braces. Love, so much love. That’s what being with my tribe does. Be in my bonnet? A spontaneous plan to wear hats for Easter.

Spring morning. Simpsons clouds in the sky. Fresh mountain air. Birds song accentuated by a stork spreading it’s wings in the soft morning light! Breakfast after a quiet morning ride into town. Feeling that I’m finally getting a hang of my instruments.
Cold case, finally solved. Champagne called for. DB superhero. Human errors need a superhero’s solution. A little chat. That’s all it takes to make the day worthwhile.
My gorgeous new Yellow coat. Shades required. Compliments from a reserved person. Body, mind, soul! Nourished.
