Three: Conflicted.
If this should end in fire, then we should all burn together. Ed Sheeran, I See Fire Just a note – these stories may be a little too dark for some people, so if my last one was too much, it might be best to skip these. … He stared into the fire. The embers…

Reflections of the Auckland Region
Wherever we found a body of water in Auckland, we saw beautiful reflections of the perfect skies. Such big skies in New Zealand. I often feel that way about Perth as well – I don’t know what makes me think that, but the the sky always seems so big there. Thank you New Zealand for…

Two: Resolve.
Just a note – these stories may be a little too dark for some people, so if my last one was too much, it might be best to skip these. Having said that, I don’t think this one is particularly graphic. … She half smiled, remembering the delicious anticipation just a handful of months ago,…

Easter Treats
This is my second Easter in Melbourne, and it doesn’t really feel like Easter without my family here. We did have a long chat for the phone this morning, and that was nice. Afterwards, I took Miss G for a walk in the park and then we went to the bakery to pick up some…

Five Minutes with a Bunny Cake – RegularRandom
Last weekend, my best friend and I went to New Zealand for a long weekend. We went to see Ed Sheeran, but also to get away and have a little break. We haven’t caught up in a long time, since she lives in Brisbane and I live in Melbourne (hence seeing Ed in Auckland!). We…
