After eighteen months of producing an article a week based on Leaf's wordplay writings WAYS WITH WORDS (WWW), I'm now ready to move onto the next stage. It was his dream to publish in book form. With around fifty articles, not only humorous but informative and with reader challenges in many cases, I'm optimistic (scroll … Continue reading WRITING ADVENTURES

ACCIDENTS WILL …
How life can turn on a sixpence! One minute we're coasting along, the next, dramatic news can barge in and we have to rise to whatever has been thrust at us. Since my last post, Leaf's life has changed. He fell and broke his leg - the femur up near the ball-and-socket of his left … Continue reading ACCIDENTS WILL …
HOME AND ABROAD TRUTHS
It's Leaf's birthday coming up - he will be 74. I plan to take a cake to be shared with the nursing staff. Whether Leaf will be able to process what's happening, remains to be seen. Ever the optimist, I think he will. If the weather is good and I have someone with me, I … Continue reading HOME AND ABROAD TRUTHS
PLEASE REMOVE YOUR HOB-NAILED BOOTS!
There are few news items these days that don't include a report of people dying, either from Covid or the 'vaccine'. The figures are readily available online for those who can be bothered to look. And that says a lot - 'for those who can be bothered to look'! I should perhaps add, 'or aren't … Continue reading PLEASE REMOVE YOUR HOB-NAILED BOOTS!
THE POWER OF POSITIVITY
By surfing the net as much as I currently do, my world view has come to encompass much more detail and recognise many more inter-connecting pieces of the giant puzzle. The puzzle that is the Universe, 21st century man and woman and the Cosmic Shift we're going through and rather like the extraordinary Word Cloud … Continue reading THE POWER OF POSITIVITY
JUST IN CASE
I was chatting to an English neighbour the other day and the subject of prepping came up. He laughed and said 'Not that again. Why do we need to prep? Tell me exactly what you think is going to happen.' Well, of course I couldn't tell him because I don't know. What I do know, … Continue reading JUST IN CASE
PROUD TO BE A WARRIOR
It came to me in the night. I don't remember what my dream was but I awoke with this enormous surge of power. I shot out of bed, gave Monty his chewy and sat down to write. GRASPING THE MOMENT This is what I do, I write and this is my principle way of passing … Continue reading PROUD TO BE A WARRIOR
FASCINATING WHAT WE FIND
I'm always distracted when rooting through the office to find a document I'm sure I have but can't remember where to find it. When I came across a photocopy of one of my letters to the Weekly Guardian from 2008, I just had to read it. And, lo and behold, it was about Alzheimer's. SORRY NO … Continue reading FASCINATING WHAT WE FIND
DON’T BLAME THE MESSENGER…
Our marriage has reached a stage where all I can do is wait. Not for anything specific, at least not for anything specific that I'm at present prepared to divulge, but because the situation for both Leaf and I has no immediate resolution. So far, after the operation, he's doing well, although I have not … Continue reading DON’T BLAME THE MESSENGER…
BACK IN THE WAITING ROOM
A non week, a flat week, a finally getting around to sorting odd socks week. I’m banned again from visiting Leaf. For how long, they don’t know. I ring him most days but apart from his initial greeting ‘Hello sweetheart’, he’s unable to carry out anything resembling a conversation, usually forgets I’m on the end of the line, … Continue reading BACK IN THE WAITING ROOM
