    Do you know what this is? It’s my birthday present – new brakes for my bike. This is one of the many reasons I love my husband; his uncanny knack of buying practical and/or interesting birthday presents. Granted… I really needed new brakes. Over the years I have received some great presents. The first year…

    I didn’t hold out much hope for light yellow. It’s a colour I associate with the impending births of babies of indeterminate sex.

    There is an element of serenity to my choices today… choices that are asking me to stop and pause. This is exactly what I need this week after an interesting time at work whereby I’ve essentially been asked to plan my role for the future. This has led me to a pathway with four options…
