  • My Mojo Came Back – WOOHOO!

    Folks, my mojo is BACK! Yeah baby! As you may have noticed, I’ve been competing with ‘Mr Grumpy’ for the title of ‘Grumpiest Person in the World’ for the past month or so. Ever since I got back from my holiday, I’ve been creatively dampened, uninspired, a bit pessimistic (for me), and of course, grumpy.…

  • Pat On The Back

    Lately I’ve received quite a few pats on the back for my website/blog. I received a LOVELY e-mail last week thanking me for my ramblings (they didn’t say ramblings, but that’s how I like to think of my blog!). A couple of ‘new’ friends have complimented my fabulous website and blog, and then yesterday I…

  • Finish the Year with a HOORAH!

    After a week back at work, I am still not really back into the swing of things! I’m still a bit slow, laid-back and relaxed about ‘getting stuff done’! It’ll still be there tomorrow.

  • Rah Rah Rah!

    Ever been of the opinion that enthusiastic people are quite irritating? You know, the sort who are always up and peppy – the jumpiest jumping bean of them all! I have made a startling and quite entertaining discovery over the past few years – it’s not so irritating when it is you that is the…

  • Do Something Amazing

    Well, I am feeling quite sad and disappointed today. I found out that while I am under the care of my neurologist, I can’t give blood. If you don’t donate blood, you might believe that is a good thing – but if you do donate, you will understand why I’m upset. I have to admit,…

  • Conscious Joyfulness

    Well, the office revamp is still going on – today we put together a new wardrobe, which was going to finish off the revamp, give me some storage in there, and turn my office into a little dance studio too cos the doors are mirrored (I’m not a prima ballerina, I just always wanted a…

  • The Standard of Success Is Joy

    “The standard of success in life isn’t the things. It isn’t the money or the stuff. It is absolutely the amount of joy that you feel.” – Abraham Couldn’t have said it better myself. Happy Monday! Love Donna.x
