PARENTING| The Year in Retrospect


I am a very trendy human being, and it looks like the trend at the moment is to reflect on 2010. I must admit the year has been a journey of discovery. Yeah you have had all this life journey malarkey and are getting absolutely fed up, so I will get to the point.

Relationships| Cougar Town


I am giggling uncontrollably as I type this post hi hi. I recently went shoe shopping, and got more than I bargained for. You see when I was growing up I knew women who were in relationships with younger men. I heard  how they were talked about and how everyone kind of had something negative to say. The neighbourhood I grew up in was not very forgiving of cougars.

I grew up knowing that, so anything short of asking for a birth certificate before an initial date I did to make sure I did not date someone younger.I had a list of questions to ask for verification purposes and the most popular one was : How old were you when Mandela was freed from prison? Anyway I married a guy older than me much to my mum's delight. She sat on the cougar slating committee you see.


LIFE| How did I get here?


I believe in human nature. Despite of all the nastiness and greed in the world I seriously have not given up on the human race. I think everyone of us has a self-regulating thinga- ma- bob which says wow you have gone too far. My self- regulating device has been kind of malfunctioning of late.

This year has been tough to say the least and I have done things I am not proud of. I have confided in my nearest and dearest at times in very gory details. What I have found is acceptance, love and non judgement. So yeah I am still a believer. With the love of my inner circle I have found my way home. This year has been tough but because of human kindness I am home.
