This post began three years ago, as 'My Reading Choices for 2018'! Now into 2021, it is just a little bit overdue. Not the books, thankfully. I didn't borrow them from a library. Reading Capacity 2018 was, I'm delighted to say, a good reading year in my MEsphere. Compared to other folks reading capacity, it … Continue reading Books from My Reading List
Relapses I often know how crummy (ie. Payback, Setback or Relapse written in order of likely duration) the MEcfs is becoming when I have vivid dreams involving rapidly rising water and blocked routes. No not blocked drains and not a dripping tap, or a glass of refreshing sparkling. I'm talking about floods. Perhaps that is … Continue reading A Day in the Life of Bedrest

But after drawing our goldfish, you can … Continue reading Landscapes And Water

Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” 18 Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: “I have seen … Continue reading Christ is Risen
Trigger Warning: Bereavement, Funerals and Covid19 The beginning few weeks of 2021 have been very heavy on our hearts. And I have been extremely hesitant about writing this post. It may seem a little strange with my having recently written about the Covid19 vaccination roll out here in the UK. But life really is a … Continue reading A Beacon of Faith
Holy Week The first Holy Week or Easter Week I remember as actually Holy Week, rather than 'I hope I get an Easter Egg at the weekend' was in my late 20s. After I had been baptised.
