Sharing recipes for life…
I am sure many of you have done this. Be with friends or family and some gorgeous food is being served. Cakes, biscuits, desserts all filled with delicous ingredients, but the most important of those ingredients is love. Anything made with love and by someone we love, is always much more delicious because of it.…
Keep readingLife is like a game of bowls….
I have just returned home from playing outdoor bowls for the afternoon. I always enjoy Saturday afternoon as it is a laid back ‘roll-up’ with no pressure or prizes. At the moment it is Winter Bowls where we pay an amount for the Winter season until the Summer Bowls start. Either that or $5, as…
Keep readingLearning my limits…
Having just returned from the big trip – eight weeks – to the UK and Italy, I reflected on what I had learned about myself. I definitely have learned to do a bit of a ‘stocktake’ if you like of what my resources look like before agreeing to do anything too physical. My stocktake may…
Keep readingGetting back into it
Well, The holiday already seems like a distant memory. This week will be my first day back in my previous routine. Husband is back to work yesterday and so we settle back into our normal lives. Much as we both enjoyed our holiday, we have become ‘homebodies’ more and more in these last few years.…
Keep readingIt’s the little things…. Am I the only one?
I think I have always been a bit weird, those that know me would no doubt agree. In fact I can almost hear a chorus of my loved ones saying “A bit weird?¿?!” Somewhat sarcastically. But. I think we all have our ‘things’. I have a number of them. Before I start to name and…

So, we are coming to the end of our eight week holiday in the UK and Europe. We have had a busy, busy time with lots of memories made and recalling of memories from the past with long-standing friends and of course several members of our lovely UK family. A family I was not born…
Keep readingNegative Neurologist – Travel is still possible, if you can adapt
I am currently coming to the end of an eight week tour of the UK and Europe, so this topic is close to my heart and my current experiences. Let me just say – before I get into this – I am not a designated ‘expert’ on Parkinson’s, but that I am an expert in…

A bit of a provocative title, I know. But, it is the truth. This post stems from a situation I have faced in recent times, that I never thought I would. For more than four years now, I have been very limited in the amount and types of exercise I could do. This is for…
Keep readingArrogant assumptions of electronic abilities
Wow! That’s a long title. I have spoken about this topic before in relation to the expectation that everyone can and will be able to access a computer. Here are some more thoughts sparked by a news item I caught the tail end of on television last night. The article in question was regarding Lloyds…
Keep readingThe ‘Wobbly. Walker’ wobbles on..
Just the other day, my husband and I went to a stately home for a walk round it’s amazing gardens. They were stunning and we both thoroughly enjoyed seeing them. However, because of my Parkinson’s I didn’t feel as able to view as much of the garden as my husband did. I feel that when…
