The Maidens

What book are you reading right now?

I read The ‘Silent Witness’ by Alex Michaelides…which was brilliant!

So I’m now reading ‘The Maidens’ by the same author 😁

‘The Maidens’

Happy Friday 😍

Somewhere/elsewhere/everywhere!

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Honestly…I don’t know! 🤔

I’ve only lived in the UK, albeit nearly 50 locations. But none of them have ever felt like home. I have no affiliation or desire to stay or live in any of them.

For me, there is this huge dichotomy between the idealistic associations of ‘home’…stability, familiarity, security, family, etc.

And my idealistic idea of moving…move away from my homeland. The freedom of roaming from one place to another; live, explore, and experience different countries.

So, in truth, I would like to live somewhere/elsewhere/everywhere. Where, I don’t know!???

Somewhere with sunnier climes would be preferable! ☀️😍

Happy Thursday 🌞🌞🌞

My precious find…

What’s the coolest thing you’ve ever found (and kept)?

The coolest thing I ever found (and kept):

I was around 8 or 9 years old. I was walking to school (one of the few occasions I went), and there in front of me, on the pavement, was a £10 note. I looked around to see if anyone else was present. No one, I was alone. I picked up the note and slipped it into my coat pocket.

I had been saving up for a skateboard for several months. The following morning I got my wheels! I was elated 😍

But, the most precious thing I ever found (a recent find) is my VOICE!

A find I hope to keep.

Happy Thursday! ❤️

Pope Benedict XVI

Who is the most famous or infamous person you have ever met?

I was present and witnessed…

Pope Benedict XVI last public Mass, held in St Peter’s Basilica, Vatican, Vatican City, Rome… on Ash Wednesday 13th February 2013.

Obviously, I didn’t get to have a chat or anything. But, it was an amazing experience. Just to be present in such an important and memorable occasion.

Happy Monday, and thank you for your visit. ❤️

‘Ring’

Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car).

I bought myself a diamond ring!

I know!…..That may sound rather extravagant! 🤔

But, my ex husband stole my engagement, eternity & wedding ring (and a whole lot more).

Long story short… without going into specifics…the courts were in my favour.

As a result, I designed and commissioned a jeweller to create a diamond ring. A ring that I wear as a symbol of strength, courage and independence.

Have a wonderful weekend! ❤️

‘RUN’

What was your favorite subject in school?

This is an easy prompt for me to answer!

I went to numerous schools, and I didn’t really settle into any of them.

So, my answer is….I didn’t like any subjects, I didn’t like school at all. But, I was good at running!

Running was my passion. Athletics, sprint etc. requires nobody else to get across that finishing line. It’s all down to you…

Screen Time 🧐

How do you manage screen time for yourself?

Hmmm… I’m trying to think of something to say. 🤔 …how many minutes have I got left? 😱

Truth is. I don’t manage screen time for myself!

I know…. What an amazingly interesting and inspiring answer! 😊

😂🤣😂. Please don’t quote me, steal my words, or get too excited!!!

I hope you all have an inspirational Wednesday 😁✨
