I love making mix tapes for people. I made one for my friend for her baby shower (to be played when she gave birth). I made one for my wedding day and my sister’s wedding day. I made one for my husband when we separated, to explain the way I was feeling (he probably didn’t…

As with Day 22, I don’t believe in regrets, but if I was doing it all again I guess I would tell myself to take more chances and have less fear about things that may never happen. Otherwise I’m happy with my choices in life. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Still to come in the…

I don’t believe in regrets. Everything we do in life makes us stronger and wiser, and adds to our lives. But if I had to pick something I would say I wish I had never believed there was such a thing as “manageable” debt. Debt is debt and I wouldn’t get into debt again (except…

Actually, the full title for today’s Truth should read “Day 21 → (scenario) Your best friend is in a car accident and you two got into a fight an hour before. What do you do?” Stupid question IMHO! Answer: The same thing I would do if we hadn’t fought. I’d rush to the hospital and…

I’ve thought and thought… and thought some more about this one, and I not one book stands out for me. I’ve always been a voracious reader. My mum taught me to read before I went to school so from the age of 4 I could usually be found with my nose in a book. I’m…

I’m now over halfway through my 30 Days of Truth Challenge. Today’s question is a fairly easy one to answer but there’s some real toughies coming up. Someone Or Something I Definitely Could Live Without I could definitely live without hate in the world, or poverty, or cruelty. Closer to home, I could live without:…

This is an interesting question because there are many things I believe I can’t live without but have never tried. I’m sure none of us would want to live without our family and friends, without love or hope. However, I’m going to answer the question exactly as asked. Most people who know me will be…
