Tweet I had to pop and buy some stamps at lunchtime – waiting in the queue I couldn’t escape the twee cards, the plastic heart shaped tat and the garish boxes of chocolates – the message was loud and clear ‘you aren’t properly loved unless your significant other has bought you something THIS ugly’ Because let’s [...] Tweet I’m not an overly reflective type. I pride myself on trying to live in the moment, to live in the joy of what is. But its funny – its now my birthday and I feel uncharacteristically contemplative. I have a love/hate relationship with my birthday – there have been wonderful years and there have [...] Tweet … but instead I am going to go to bed with a hot water bottle Tonight I have crossed one job off the list – I’ve cleared away the piles of mess in our bedroom.
