For my entire life (decades and decades of it), I’ve had this awful coat hanger in my wardrobe. As a kid, as a teenager, as an adult.
I’m awfully unsettled today. I can’t seem to shake it. And I want to shake it. So I’ve been googling around, looking for inspiration. I found this “A-Zen of life” which I’m going to keep reading and hope that it sinks in a little: A to Zen of life: A-avoid negative sources, people, places, and habits Don’t get caught up in home ownership if its not in your immediate reach. There are benefits to renting, you just need to get smart. Here are some helpful tips to inspire you. . . . → Read More: The bright side of renting Australia is a harsh place. It has always felt harsh to me. The sun. The bush. The sea. Nothing about it is very gentle. From fires to drought to floods. Queensland is in disrepair. People losing loved ones. I’ve even stopped watching the news. ‘The bad news’ as my mum likes to call it. So it is . . . → Read More: Adversity and soul The other week I posted a spiel titled ‘A week without TV’. For those that are interested, I’d like to report back that my week without television was hugely successful. I did not watch television once. Er, well, ok…. So there was the one time that I came home from silly season hoo-har all up-to-the-gils-tipsy and I . . . → Read More: On not watching television Facebook regularly prompts me to view photos of a friend that has passed away. When I do click through I struggle to work out how I feel. Obviously I feel sad, but I often feel a mix of emotions including surprise, confusion and the strangest sense of hope. I can only describe it as a hopeless . . . → Read More: Mourning in a digital age Today I feel small. You know the feeling. It often crops up when you are tired (and in my case today, a little hungover). Plans for the future seem impossible. The projects that you are working on seem too hard. All of your skills dissolve. The world feels like a massive place. I call it smallsville. And . . . → Read More: Today I feel small So now that most of the ‘good shows’ are over for the year, aka Packed to the Rafters, I’ve decided that it is time to give up TV for a WHOLE week. Why you might ask ? Why would I want to give up TV for a whole week? Well, several reasons. You’ve probably heard them . . . → Read More: A week without TV (part 1) Today I left a job that was wearing me down. I picked up the phone and said ‘No hard feelings, but I’m feeling burnt out and I’d like to leave before I catch on fire.’ It was that simple. No regrets. No stress. Just finito. . . . → Read More: Today I quit Ever since I got back from a fabulous month of holidaying in Europe, aka a month of pasta-bread-cheese-wine, I’ve been struggling to get over the horrible FLAT BLAH feeling that IS post Europe holiday. Now it has been more than a month since I returned, so I’m thinking that it is not just a case of . . . → Read More: Have you got the FLAT BLAH feeling? This week I stop saying Thank You I was scanning tickets for people entering a music event at work the other day when I realised that I say Thank You to everyone who walks in the door. Considering 2200 people walk in the venue each night – that’s a lot of Thank You’s. And with those . . . → Read More: This week I stop saying Thank You In May 2010, a friend was involved in a tragic and fatal accident. I knew her as Teyla, 2 Ton Teyla ( her roller derby name) and Kendra Morgan – her real name. It is still so hard to accept that her sunny smile can now only live on in memories, hearts and photos. One of . . . → Read More: 2 Ton Teyla [Photo by Maja Baska] January 2007. A year after my step dad Ernie died. I was sitting around the house all single and despondent on my summer holiday. Most of my friends were coupled off, the usual crap. I was bored and dug out a pair of second hand quad skates that my mum had given to . . . → Read More: The Pursuit of Derbyness I can’t wait to see this next week.
