‘Music’

What would your life be like without music?

If there is no music, there is no dancing.

If there is no dancing, there is no making love.

If there is no making love, there is no music.

Short, but to the point!

‘Movement’

A painting I did for a friend of mine. Inspired by observations whilst scuba diving.

‘Holiday’

How do you celebrate holidays?

How do I celebrate holidays?

Festive Holidays: My Mother was/is a Jehovahs Witness, so as children my sisters and I didn’t get to celebrate Christmas.

I do not follow my mother’s religious values. So now, I enjoy the Christmas festivities with friends. I love the twinkling lights, the Xmas songs, watching the idealistic Xmas movies, the joyous laughter, the festive food, and of course a few tipples to wash it all down with 🤪.

Recreational Holidays: I love to travel, to see as much of the world as I can. Anywhere near, on, or in the ocean 🌊🐟🐠⛵️. I love to sail and scuba dive; the Maldives, the Great Barrier Reef, the Caribbean oceans. The ocean to me, is both calming and therapeutic. It can also be extremely volatile and dangerous…you have to respect it. I love to celebrate nature in all its beauty 😁.

Baking, cooking fail 🤔

Write about your most epic baking or cooking fail.

Have I had any baking or cooking failures?

Of course not!

I’m a culinary expert, I bake and cook for myself everyday.

I’ve got no Michelin Stars, but I’m still here 🥹🤣🤣

‘Trust’

Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.

Not to trust so readily. As a child I trusted my family, more specifically, my parents.

However, they were the least trustworthy people in my life. I looked up to them for guidance, love, encouragement, emotional growth.

My parents didn’t give me any of these things.

But, as a child I did trust my parents. So, the lesson for me is 🤔…

‘Reflect’

Favourite Foods

What are your favorite types of foods?

Oh gosh!!!

I love just about all foods 😋

I enjoy tasting all the different flavours, traditions, and the local ingredients from all the countries I visit.

So, really, I love all foods.

Yum…now I’m hungry 🤔😁😂

‘Walk and Run’

How often do you walk or run?

I can’t run, but I can walk

I can’t stand, but I can dance

Due to spinal complications which required major surgery;

Thoracic spinal fracture

Lumbar disc protrusions

Double cervical discectomy and fusion

Cervical spinal osteophytes removal

I couldn’t run away, but I walked away, and now I’m dancing.

Keep smiling 😁, keep dancing 💃, keep safe.

Leader 🤔

Do you see yourself as a leader?

Do I see myself as a leader 🤔…no, not really.

I was a college lecturer for twenty years, so if that makes me a leader then maybe so.

Favourite Word

What’s your favorite word?

Hmmmm…. My favourite word has to be ‘discombobulated’

It is a word that represents me to a tee, well, it did!

I often felt in a state of confusion, disorientation, anxiety, about something, but never really knowing of what.

I love the sound of the word; discombobulated! It rolls off the tongue wonderfully. It has a certain sense of humour about it.

Hopefully, my new favourite word will become; ‘recombobulated’ 🤞🤗😂
