You gotta swim
In my last post I mentioned how busy it’s been and it’s still going! So when I haven’t been busy working, cooking, or meeting up with family and friends I’ve been catching up on some much needed rest. Forced to have rest more like, thanks to getting the flu a few weeks ago! Thankfully I’m…

Recovery is boring! Randomest post ever.
I have so many things I could do but my concentration is at an all time low so I don’t want to do anything. I have books, telly (when Netflix can bother to work!), and have even tried playing some games this week. I can handle things for about 30 minutes max then I’m ready…

The Holidays are Upon us
I know it’s only November 11th, but when you live outside of the US the holiday season comes early and is, in my opinion anyway, more joyful because there aren’t 3 holidays crammed into less than 10 weeks. Take Halloween as an example. It is celebrated here, but not even close to on the same…

Real Life FTW
This summer has been the busiest ever and I’ve finally had a chance to rest and catch my breath! It’s been filled with going out, gigs, conventions, hikes, a visit from my dad, children’s birthday parties, our 6th wedding anniversary (which we made a non-event) and gaming while my poor over worked and totally stressed…

Sunshine!
I like rain more than the average person. I think it comes with depression – to relish things like rain and thunder and crappy weather where you can make an excuse to not go out and hide under the duvet in bed all day. As much as I like rain, I love sunshine. I’m an…
