Hey there to you. Welcome to my Margarita-style blog. We like it salty and sweet here. Salty language but with sweet truths. Cannot wait to hear if you have any topics you'd like me to cover or even your comments. Let's do this
I get asked about this show at least once a week.And you know what – I admit with great shame that I used to watch it. And even – gulp – look forward to it.I need therapy – I know. You’ll see what I mean.Anyways. I’ll put you out of the misery of guessing – […]
The weather is pretty shitty today – here in Queensland. Dark, rainy – just glum really. If a day could have an emotion – and I like to think they do – today is lonely. How do I know – well, I spent a hell of a lot of my childhood lonely. Mostly because I […]
I know, I know…you just want to help them. Your motives are pure….(hmm we can talk about that another day).

Don’t Leave Me This Way… I’m scared shitless of rejection. I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t. It paralyses me. Even when you guys unsubscribe – I have to catch myself. I’m going to guess that 90% of the people I chat with are making decisions from a place of fear. Fear of […]
