Conversations through the middle

Life from a (slightly) more mature perspective

Deodorant by any other name…

July 18, 2023

A great combination for daily skincare

June 1, 2023

I don’t often wear make-up, but I do apply every day without fail, both day and night – and I’ve done so since I was around 14 years old.

I live in the countryside with my dogs and cat, and I love horses, yoga and running (sometimes). Writing is what I do - I've tried other things, but keep coming back to it. And I'm learning to meditate.
