Braving Beachville yoga

Posted on May 18, 2017 by thepogblog

I’m not very good at meeting new people.  I’d rather Norman gouged my eyes out than have to walk into a room of people that I don’t know on my own.  If I don’t stutter when I try talking, I say … Continue reading →

Little Pea and me in Beachville

Posted on May 16, 2017 by thepogblog

I had my first visitor to Beachville this weekend – Little Pea came to stay :o)  I’ve only had him to stay overnight once before, and this time he stayed for two.  I’ve come to the conclusion that there are … Continue reading →

Week 1 in Beachville

Posted on May 10, 2017 by thepogblog

It’s been a week.  The good news is that Norman, Himself and I seem to be managing pretty well  with our change in living arrangements.  There isn’t really any bad news, now that Norman has stopped crying.  Despite the drugs … Continue reading →

Goodbye, Bumpkinsville.

Posted on May 2, 2017 by thepogblog

Today is final packing day.  Tomorrow morning I leave the Bumpkinsville area for the next volume in my life (‘chapter’ didn’t seem long enough.  I’m hoping for more than just one chapter). I’m going to miss quite a bit.  Obviously … Continue reading →

the drugs had better work….

Posted on April 26, 2017 by thepogblog

This evening I took Norman to the vet.  Nothing is wrong – I was just very worried that as he cries and hyperventilates for an entire 10 minute car journey, an hour plus to the new house next week might … Continue reading →

The chaos of me

Posted on April 19, 2017 by thepogblog

I’m a creature of habit.  I don’t like change one little bit.  I don’t even like it when my yoga teacher suggests trying out a new place for my mat in our class.  I do fit ball on a Monday, … Continue reading →

Pssst!

Posted on April 17, 2017 by thepogblog

I could be wrong, and I don’t want to start an inaccurate rumour, but I have my suspicions that Kylie Minogue may be living under cover in Bumpkinsville.  I mean, look: I’m just putting it out there as a possibility … Continue reading →

Little rambles

Posted on April 11, 2017 by thepogblog

One thing I’m really quite good at is rambling.  So when my friend went into a hospice I sent her the occasional rambling message to read at those times she might be on her own and need a distraction.  They were … Continue reading →

Unexpected running smiles

Posted on April 8, 2017 by thepogblog

Sometimes when I run, it’s just about distance and time and getting back to work or to get stuff done. Sometimes it turns into lots of smiles though. Like knowing I’ve rescued another local worm, or replanting a bulb that … Continue reading →

People watching

Posted on April 6, 2017 by thepogblog

I do like a spot of people watching. I like imagining the connections between groups or couples and thinking up their back stories. Last weekend I went to the local shop and had two coffees so I could spend more … Continue reading →
