I've never been interested enough in religion to check out what each are about. I love what you say about the way of the Jewish, giving a day to day name and a Jewish name - being from a past family member who will look out for you. That sounds ...

wow. What a wonderfully written blog. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and ideas etc. I for one think this is what makes humans such a fascinating race of beings. Such a wide range of opinions in every direction imaginable. I never ...

"Nibs" commented on Barry Walsh's Blog "Long Ride".
Your youth club sounds wonderful. So many youth clubs fold after such a short time, it's really quite sad. We've had a few youth clubs round my way that have been operating for quite a number of years. A couple of policemen set one up and got ...

"Nibs" commented on Barry Walsh's Blog "Long Ride".
Wow! Well done. 500 miles is a heck of long way to cycle. At least I suspect you're cycling? My place of work has a cycle to work scheme. Quite a high number of men actually cycle aprox 25miles each way per day for their own reasons. I've ...

"Nibs" commented on Bunny Brown's Blog "To begin".
Welcome Bunny. What a good starting blog (block). Someone wrote a blog the other day to stress how high the standards are on this site. This site certainly helps me with writing mechanics. By that I mean the mechanics of writing, not writing ...

Oh dear. Poor Mrs Blackbird What ever shall she do. The big mean human has come along and evicted her. Not only that, he moved her house when she wasn't looking. But to where? He left no signpost 'house this way'. No letter to warn her ...

Nibs I like that phrase: pay attention. It acknowledges that attention costs us something. In order to pay attention to one thing, other things must be shut down, closed out, put away. In order to pay attention, we have to pull over, stop our routine, and focus17 days ago

About
I'm an up beat girl most of the time.
I'm in post chemo recovery trying hard to change my life to make things easier to enable me to cope with my new levels of dissability.
Having tried and failed a phased return to work I'm now focussing back on a new writing project.
I miss my writing and cloud buddies when I'm not here.
:o)
As for the following statement below in sep' section 'I want to amend it to read as 'I'm a 'yet to be published' author'

by Caducean Whisks 11 months agoHi Nibs, no, I'm not feeding Woody dog food - not biscuits, anyway. He foraged that one all by himself - who knows where from?! -
by Bren 1 year agoHi Nibs. Thanks for encouraging mail. I am so pleased that you are seeing more clearly! Wonky vision is really scary. Thank goodness for caring nurses.
Have scan on Tuesday - start the gunk meds tonight! Good thing I wrote it on here or I would forget again!
Healing vibes to you. TLC for yourself and I will give some to me.
I went to a church concert last night - it would have been easier not to go but it was worth making the effort just to see/inhlae the blue in the magnificent stained glass window. I have been in that town for 25 years and never been into the church - I am used to a village parish church so was quite bowled over by the size of the window. The first part of the evening was not so good but the Goodall's Requiem was very moving.
