There are Days

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ There are days when I am proud of being a citizen of my country. Where we have a diverse culture, and through the medium of hope, understand our differences, but are friends anyway. Where I grew up, and by talking with colleagues, I learnt about different religions and how we are notContinue reading “There are Days”

Finding The Joy

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I don’t add images, unless they link to the word prompt. So, that is probably all the time. In 2021 I started blogging, and it was mostly to promote my book ”It Won’t Happen Again”, but in that instance I found a group of people, who didn’t pretend to be interested, andContinue reading “Finding The Joy”

Celebrating

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I am having a quiet Christmas day this year. My daughter is going to her partner’s mum’s house. It is okay, as I have spent five years sharing both days with my grandchildren. On Boxing day we are celebrating by going out for a meal, and opening the rest of our presents.Continue reading “Celebrating”

Second Hand

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I don’t mind reading new authors, but rarely buy new books. The last one I brought was by an author called Nicky Peacock, and The 13th Girl. I enjoyed her story about a serial killer and its female protagonist. There are many shops that allow you to buy secondhand books. The lastContinue reading “Second Hand”

Lucky Life

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I am thankful for spending time with my daughter, granddaughter, and son this year. We went on holiday together, to Devon. We spent the days going to different outings. We took our dogs, and they loved running around on the beach, when there was nobody else there, while we collected sea glass.Continue reading “Lucky Life”

Most Days

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ Most days merge, especially when I am working. Even the weekends are very similar, but during each day there is a reason to smile. When my granddaughter makes a joke, or even when she says anything serious, I can’t help but chuckle. Sharing memories loved ones is a pleasure I look forwardContinue reading “Most Days”

Pareidolia – Cloud Watching

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ As a child, I loved laying on the grass and watching the clouds go by. I would point out each shape with my friend, and it was a brilliant game. If I witnessed a swan, a horse-drawn carriage, or a deer, we would spend the afternoon in joyful company. Phsycological and partContinue reading “Pareidolia – Cloud Watching”

Blogging

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ When I first started blogging it was to promote my book, but it has grown into something else entirely. I have read some amazing posts over the years, and have loved taking part in the word prompts. Although, I have found out, that less is more. I think I posted about fiveContinue reading “Blogging”

Women’s Rights

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I agree with women’s empowerment. We cannot go back to a time when the police did nothing about domestic violence, or accused women and girls of dressing in the wrong way when men took it upon themselves to attack them or women going to back street abortionists because they could go toContinue reading “Women’s Rights”
