AT LAST, ANOTHER INSTALLMENT FROM THE GLASS HOUSE

She wanders into the park to drink her coffee and feed the ducks and the geese, if they happen to be about this morning. One of the geese had a wounded wing last time she was here, so she’s done her best to stop by when she can and feed it some stale bread. The fellow who owns the little store...

MORE FROM THE GLASS HOUSE

How strange a place the world is now. She gets up in the morning, has her breakfast, showers, does what needs doing. But, there’s no joy in anything anymore. Her only happiness comes from her animal friend. So funny, the things the death of a love takes away from a person. For the longest time, she... Sign in to see full entry.

AN UNWANTED SECRET

I've been working through some personal as well as physical issues lately(the physical ones, most of you all know about)and last night I suddenly came to a painful realisation. While it may resolve itself in time, that isn't likely to happen in the near future. And there isn't a damn thing I can do... Sign in to see full entry.

THE NEW STORY CONTINUES

She stands in the pet food aisle of the grocery, trying to decide which flavour her Sweetpea will like most. She’s never been a picky cat, but she likes it when mummy changes flavours now and then. She decides on the chicken and seafood flavour. Canned, along with a bag of organic dry. Then she goes... Sign in to see full entry.

NOT A POEM, BUT...

This is only the beginning of this new story. As you'll no doubt notice as you read, it, like the past poem or two I've posted here recently, stems from a very painful time in my life that happened almost three years ago now. But it still seems like yesterday to me. Yes, I guess you could say I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

A BAD TIME OF IT

Hi everyone... I'm sorry I haven't written much of late. The infection is cleared off now, but I'm still dealing with the wound and I haven't felt much like doing anything. I'm afraid the Gestapo has returned, which doesn't help any. I need to ask for prayers for an old friend. He's down with a cold... Sign in to see full entry.

AN OFF DAY

Hi everyone... I wanted to come and write today, but things just didn't work out. I had to go for a quick appointment with Doctor Herman-please don't worry, it's nothing serious-and at the moment, I'm not feeling very well. I will try and come back to write tomorrow. Love to all... Sign in to see full entry.

A POEM FROM A PAINFUL TIME

BROKEN Love is a funny thing So strange, yet familiar It builds us up Heals us Tears us apart That’s what I got For loving you Didn’t you know My heart is only made of glass? I gave it to you To hold Not to hurt But that’s what you did I just wish I knew why You promised me But you lied Damn you... Sign in to see full entry.

GOODBYE FOR A WHILE

Hi everyone... Please don't worry, I'm fine. But due to some things that are beyond my control I won't be able to be here for a little while. Possibly for several weeks. But again, please don't worry. I'm all right. Be well until I return. Sign in to see full entry.

STRIKE OUT

Good Lord... I'm batting zero here. Okay, so now of top of the staph infection I think I'm catching a cold. I had a fever all day and night yesterday. Yes, I'm sure that part of the reason has to do with the infection itself. It's gone now, thank God! I'm not feeling too badly today. But now I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

THE RESULTS ARE IN...

Patsy rang me back yesterday while we were having dinner with Mum. The results of the culture she took from my wound last week are in...and I've tested positive for a moderate staph infection. Thankfully, I'll go back to see her next Monday rather than Wednesday afternoon. I was able to get the... Sign in to see full entry.

BLESSED SUNDAY

What a pretty day outside. The leaves on my little trees are dancing in the breeze. The grass is still its bright, vibrant green and looks so sweet today. I haven't heard any birdsong for some time now. I'm sure there are still birds about, but I'm also sure they must be getting ready for their long... Sign in to see full entry.

A ROUGH WEEK

Hi everyone... I hope you're all having a fabulous weekend so far! It's a beautiful day outside my window. The grass is still a bright, vibrant green. The leaves on my little trees are even more beautiful than when I last looked at them. The sky is a fantastic blue. But it's COLD out there! This... Sign in to see full entry.

I'M BACK!

Hi everyone... Yes, I've been absent for exactly one week. Well, almost. Last Saturday my laptop (aka. my trash box!) decided to have some fun by catching a virus-YIKES!!!!-and crashing. At first I thought all was lost, but Marvin has a friend who thought he might be able to fix it for us... AND... Sign in to see full entry.

PRAYERS NEEDED FOR MY UNCLE

Hi everyone... Please may I ask you to keep my aunt Nancy and her husband Steve in your thoughts and prayers tonight? Nancy posted on facebook earlier that he had some type of surgery two days ago. Though what for, she hasn't said. Steve is Diabetic, which complicates things for him. He's doing as... Sign in to see full entry.
