Hello my fellow Modern Woman
I’ve been pressed by many, MANY friends and family members to share what I’ve learned over the years to help other strong-minded, kind-hearted, beautiful-souled Modern Women enjoy old-fashioned romance in this crazy, d***head-strewn, digital-dating world!
If you’ve read Romance Ain’t Dead you’ll have found out what started me on this whole LooseKnickers.com journey, so I won’t blather on about it here.
If you’re a bit nosey, here is my life in bullet points:
- My loves: my son (obvs), my dad, strong lattes and a quiet house first thing in the morning, dogs, cats…most animals really, good friends, my liberty, my laptop, my ukulele, writing handwritten letters, receiving handwritten letters, travel, quiche and salad, getting a little bit drunk with friends.
- My hates: cruelty, injustice and bullying. I especially dislike confrontation but, will shout at people who get their phones out and/or chat loudly in the cinema.
- My new interests: cycling – an early morning bike ride as the sun rises and before the rest of the world hits the road, it is pretty close to perfection, apart from the hills.
- My old interests: Leopard print!
- My delights: a cup of tea in a cup and saucer, sat in bed, late at night with Agatha Christie’s Poirot.
- My musical tastes: YouTube’s Café Music BGM and Classic FM are my daily go-tos. I love most genres except Death Metal!
- My qualifications: Counselling, NLP, Performance Coaching, Teaching
- My struggles:
- procrasti-fection (procrastination through perfectionism).
- Parenting!
- Finding a bra that fits.
- Writing this ‘About’ thing. It’s my 8th attempt!
- Not now but once upon a time – depression, bad, clinical, wake-up-in-hospital kind of depression.
- Also…the MENOPAUSE! OMG HOW MUCH MORE CAN I TAKE OF THOSE INCONSIDERATE HOT FLASHES!
And breathe…
- My friends say: I’m positive, passionate, caring, creative and fun. I’ve also been described as bossy (in a good way), tenacious and determined.
- My relationship status: Once upon a time I was married, I’ve had a couple of medium-term thangs, a few short-term thangs and quite a lot of dates.
- My dream: to live in a cottage in a picture-postcard village with a couple of goats and chickens and with an old pub within staggering distance of my front door.
OK, enough about me.
Have you read any of the Wise Words or Blog Posts?
Some of them are quite funny even if I say so myself. Well, I laughed, or was it hysteria!
