Me and my Bro

Bro and I are only 17 and 1/2 months apart in age and have always been very close. (Although I tried to throw him out of his pram after he was born.)

We have lived apart in different countries for 22 years and we hate being away from each other. He is the only person left on the planet who shares all my history! He has visited me in London every Summer for the past few years, and we always have a marvellous time. We hardly stop talking for 2 weeks!

In 5 weeks time he will be here again. Can't wait, bro!

These photos are for you!

Love you lots and lots and miss you more and more as we get older.

Declutter (dejunking)

While on the underground today going in to central London, Iwas reading an article about 'decluttering' in a 'freebie' magazine I found on the seat beside me.

'Too much stuff is like 'mental cholesterol' ...(wrote Michelle Passoff)
mmmmm ...............I thought.

'Our stuff surrounds us and distracts us from the real purposes of our lives.'
mmmmmm............I thought

'Lose the broken, the useless, and the things with negative associations.'

mmmmmm............I thought

So, as soon as I got home I went into a mad flurry of decluttering/ tidying/'losing' some of the things that are bungling up my sights, confusing my issues and mucking around with my state of mind.

mmmmm...............I thought, this does feel a bit better......

mmmmm...............I thought, tomorrow is another day......

mmmmm...................................................................................
