Quirky shoes

I saw this amazing pair of shoes today oh how I would love to wear them but those days are way behind me now. I wonder who they belonged to, where did they wear them, did they have the time of their life while dancing in the dark.  If they had belonged to me I would never part with them, I think I would have a glass case made to display them for all time.  Why would anyone give them away to the op shop, unless they were left behind from a relationship breakup and this was their only way of getting revenge on their other half.  Oh how I  would love to know the story behind them.  I will keep their memory going in my way by exhibiting them here on my blog.

 This photo came up today on facebook Carolyn and I enjoying time together in Victoria, how quickly time passes and  little did we know what was awaiting us as we huddled together posing for this photo.  We had a lovely day exploring the exhibition rooms, relaxing having coffee and strolling through the grounds.  COVID and cancer were furthest from our minds, COVID wasn't even heard of, then 2020 gave me cancer and COVID hit the world.  Still today the cancer diagnosis sometimes feels like it is someone else's story, then I see the scar, it's me alright unless the doctors got it all wrong and they made a big mistake or the universe is having a joke on my behalf.  Good friends stick together through thick and thin Carolyn and I have a beautiful friendship spanning many colourful years lets hope this virus soon settles then I can revisit Victoria once again and enjoy relaxing out on the patio with my dear friend.

Ooops

 Ooops nearly forgot to do todays blog.  Yeah I managed to sleep ok last night, on waking I decided I  would go for a morning walk, I love walking  by the river in the morning, lifting my nose high and inhaling the scent of eucalypt.  As I took deep breaths there lay in front of me a white feather, Carolyn's mum Mollie came to mind it is a symbol fir Carolyn of her mum being close by, I often feel her presence when I walk and find white feathers in my path.  Red flowers lit up the bitumen pathway causing me to pause for a while and take photos of the ancient trees who rise like sentinels along the river bank.   Autumn is on it's way, my favourite time of year, trees turn from green to yellow to orange to red and what a joy they bring to my heart. The days shorten, the heat is less and I find it easier to breathe.  I live in a very pretty part of the world and count my bessings  daily to have found that inner quietude which for many years...

Restless night

 Oh how I hate those nights to hot to sleep, I toss and turn but no matter what position I am in I  am hot and restless.   The mind continues to dredge up memories from the past repeating over and over  sequences of events long forgotten during the daytime.  Why oh why do I recall silly memories, my first job on the ledger machine at Anchor foods, I suppose this is part of entering the castle thinking about circumstances which stood in my way of following my soul's calling or circumstances I chose over following my soul's voice.  I think I worked at that job for a year then moved into the city to work for Burns Philp where another opportunity came my way to work in the travel industry which I turned down because I was married with a child and couldn't see myself being in the travel industry. Another dream of travel was forfeited as there was no way Ray would have supported me being away and him taking care of Rachel.  If only I could do this life ...
