The Salute – A Women’s Day Poem.
To you, for carrying on even when your heart was being ripped from your soul To you, for being the best mother to a child that needs you more than we can ever imagine To you, for fighting a battle that is unfair and cruel and that I know has torn the sparkle from your […]

#me too
To the girl in the corner, It always amazed me that you had taken my performing arts class. You would always sit in the back, in your prison issue, pale blue slightly dirty, sweatshirt. You never really said much. I look back now and I really hope you were listening. We were putting on a […]

Once Upon a Christmas fatty …..
Ah, it’s the season to be jolly! I bloody love Christmas, all of it! The tree, the presents, the 2,3 or 4 party dresses you have to buy, the sales, the wine, the buffet, the lights, the school holidays and the promise of a new year and new opportunities and new beginnings and a whole […]

Why aren’t we all on the same team?
Something has made me cross this week. In fact it pissed me off. I think I got so mad about it because I don’t understand it. Then of course my overactive brain started thinking that the problem was much bigger than the one that caused me to have to have a two finger Twix for […]

You can be anything you want sweet pea, just don’t love yourself ….

It’s been a while. The main reason for my absence is that the universe has blessed me with the most beautiful, intelligent and smart -arsed daughter you could hope for, oh and she doesn’t like to sleep. I mean really doesn’t like to sleep. So whilst my daughter is playing tool boxes with daddy (toy one […]

Why cant we say the word P****D?
Lately during my late night blog searching, internet stalking and newspaper reading, I have come across a very confusing subject. Why can’t anyone seem to call a period a period? In a world where we are happy to call each other the most vulgar names referring to our most private parts why can’t we say the name […]

My Darling Girl
My darling girl, it was your birthday today. You announced to me at around 11am you like birthday’s and I could have one too. Two years have passed since mummy was wailing in agony after being ‘induced’, only to find out it hadn’t actually worked at all. Much to the amusement of daddy, who then […]
