VERY shy, is convinced she is ugly, she is a very sensitive child but very very kind and giving, she has a lovely heart. I have to reassure her every day that she is beautiful. She has a big hang up about being small as she is absolutelt tiny for her age (like her mother)

I promised they could get chipper chips for tea as a treat, I will NOT be pertaking

Aww Oney, she's a wee dote.

How many other littlies would come in from playing to meet an odd English woman with a hat knitting dog.

I think it's time for Black Bess to take on another project which will be delivered through my usual courier (Molls)

Thought for the day. This really resonated with me....I am going to stop people pleasing, waiting for others to say it is ok and most of all, taking on other peoples shite and bad moods as an indication that I did something wrong, I have practiced this over the past week and it has made a world of difference!


When we search for “ourselves” in the eyes of others, we have imprisoned our own-selves in believing that our self-worth is nothing unless others validate who we are. Unless we approve of whom we are, what we are, and what we are capable of doing as an individual, only then we will have released “ourselves” from our own imprisonment. We are in charge of our own life’s destiny and what we do and become can only be validated by our accomplishments and failures; not by what others may think of us. —Dahveed

I understand COMPLETELY Mollers...and it really DOES work, so freeing!!

I have let it govern my life for so long Mollers, if Rob snapped at me...MY FAULT. if my mother was a little abrupt on the phone...MY FAULT. If a neighbours morning wave was not as exuberant as normal...I MUST HAVE DONE SOMETHING WRONG. If a friend did not return a text....OH NO! I MUST HAVE DONE SOMETHING.

What I FAILED to realise was that these were people who all have their own shit going on...my mother may have been rushing to the hairdressers, Rob may have had a bad day at work, The neighbout might have had stuff on her mind and the friend was stuck in a meeting.


NONE of it was my fault! Whatever anyone does OR says is NOT because of me.

Why burden myself with everyone else's load as well as my own, racking my brains all day long to desperately figure out what is is that I have done wrong. What a complete waste of time and effort.

So freeing myself from that trap and looking after myself, if people want to gripe, moan or be short with me, so be it, they can get on with it, I have bigger fish to fry and I am talking my life OFF hold. I am not putting my happiness in anyone else's hands, it is too precious for that, I am taking it back!
