I haven’t tackled any of the writing prompts for this month’s NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month) challenge theme of Connect recently – but since today’s is a rather fun one, I thought it would be a good opportunity to jump back in. Let’s party! [continue reading…]
Pursuit:
tackling with enthusiasm the gradual, uphill climb
clear of vision, destination, desires
energy expended bringing joyful successes

Time for another Tangled Tuesday! Whether you’re an Alphabet Salad and/or Ten Thousand Tangles newbie or a regular reader around these parts, I’m so very glad you’re here to share the joy of tangling with me (and do hope you’ll be back). Welcome! [continue reading…]
When it comes to pursuing success, tackling persistent problems, or chasing dreams, I tend to take the eternally optimistic, keep on trying, “never never never give up” approach, believing that doggedly carrying on even in the face of struggles, roadblocks, or [continue reading…]
In some ways it’s been a rather tough few days in my corner of the world, as BlogHer ’15 happened this weekend – but not for me. Friends who’d arrived in New York City early started sharing posts and photos days before the conference even started, and [continue reading…]
My choice for today’s Photo Friday “Landscape 2015” challenge prompt was taken at my favourite Windsor park just this past May. It was originally done for a “Sun Flare” prompt, which was a challenge all of its own on an overcast day! [continue reading…]
A few years ago, way back in a mythical time when I was actually doing quite a bit of exercise (well, for me) and, perhaps even more surprisingly, actually starting to enjoy it (I know, right?!), I ventured into the wonderful world of fitness trackers – [continue reading…]
July started off with a bang for me – in the Fat Mum Slim Photo A Day Challenge department, at least! – when my submission for “In the house” was chosen as one of the Fab 4 in the FMS PAD Facebook group. That sort of thing totally makes my day, and [continue reading…]
Once again I’ve had a very busy week of tangling, yet ended up with what seems like very little to show for it – but my latest big project is now complete (more on that below!), so I am ready to move on to something new. Welcome to another Tangled Tuesday! [continue reading…]
I drank a LOT of coffee when I was in my 20s – sometimes five or six cups a day at work, and quite often even more later in the evening should I happen to find myself out with friends. And when I was in my 20s, I could actually handle it. [continue reading…]
Two things happened this week that have inspired me to put my friends at the top of today’s gratitude list. First of all, when a recent scheduled gathering ended up being cancelled due to circumstances beyond our control, my disappointment at [continue reading…]
Today is just one of those days. I’m feeling a little tired, a little headachey, and a little disgruntled – not for any particular reason, but enough that it’s affecting my mood and turning me into someone who’s really not particularly fit company to be [continue reading…]
If you happened to read my “Quirks & Oddities” post the other day, you might remember what I said about bare feet. Short version for those who missed it: a) I do NOT like photos of them at ALL and b) although photos of my own do exist, I wasn’t [continue reading…]
Today’s writing prompt for this month’s NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month) challenge theme of Connect is another very thought-provoking question that made me dig a little deeper, past my initial response and into a feeling of uncertainty. [continue reading…]
As I mentioned the other day, I’m planning on tackling some of the writing prompts that have been prepared for this month’s NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month) challenge theme of Connect. I thought today’s question was rather [continue reading…]
This week I have dedicated hours upon hours upon hours to the pursuit of tangling (and loved every minute of it!) – yet in some ways I have very little to show for all of my time, as you will soon see. Welcome to another Tangled Tuesday! [continue reading…]
