The Power
I am a big advocate of the SIMPLE . That said, if i am feeling a little less 'me' than i usually feel, i can be very easily sway...
The Turning
^The first peepings of Autumn..^I can't BELIEVE this wonderful week off work of mine is drawing to an end! I feel as if it was well and truly needed: sometimes you get to a point when you just need to step back, re-charge and re-assess quite how LUCKY you are. Often i submerge myself so much in my job that it feels rather like there is not much room left for anything else. This week has been about 8am wake ups (heaven), days spent cycling as far as my little legs would take me (read: mostly just many many times around that park of ours…
Green Bean
I should like to tell you it has all been go go GO round these here parts, but actually it has been rather quiet. Whilst at the time i moan about this fact, at Christmas i complain that life is too hectic, too rushed and too…MANIC. I like to think i am just adjusting to a slower pace: starting to move a little slower, enjoy a much simpler existence and to clean. That's right clean. There is something to be said for Spring and the feelings it brings. Whilst we are only experiencing little peeps of the green that is to come, its all in…
Gold n' Cold
Despite that this week has been the first week that i have started to get the hint of frantic retail type Christmas stress at Monsoon Towers; i have rather enjoyed myself. This year i am going to make an extra EFFORT to not fall too far into the stress and try to see the bigger picture (ie that huge and lovely Christmas dinner at my parents with the Mr) and to see everyone's lovely faces when they open the presents that i have not yet got them.
But don't worry. I have my Christmas CARDS and all of my wrapping paper and 'bits' …

Autumn Eyes
I realised the other day that in fact i shouldn't be writing Autumn with a capital 'A' and that actually it is supposed to just be written as 'autumn'. I think i have written it wrongly for the best part of the whole twenty eight years of my life. Surely if any season deserves an almighty capital letter it should be Autumn? Don't worry dear AUTUMN i wont be changing my grammar for anyone. Where is the fun in following rules after all?!
I digress. If you haven't gathered already, i have a rather strong love for Aut…

Positive Beans
Being British it is in my nature to moan and to talk about the weather. I am a seasoned professional in combining both. It often features in these pages. It is also in my nature to very much GET ON WITH IT. This week began like this…. After my intial grumpiness at the impossibility of a bike ride on such a day. It was a sneaky excuse to be bundled up inside with a big mug of camomile, apple and cinnamon tea and do some very overdue cutting and sticking. I buy (AND GATHER) a fair amount of magazines, leaflets, look books and other pictoria…
