Driving Through Doors

1st August 2017

Today’s post was going to be about my ultimate stress-busters. A numbered list with keywords and phrases like What The Hell is Hygge? or Just Find Me, Google, Damn it! A (somewhat universal, but still rather personal) list that would garner such comments as: ‘Great post!’ b. ‘Your so funny!’ iii. ‘Can I have tea instead?’ f. ‘My cousin’s brother’s wife can pop wheelies in their wheelchair.

I’ve been up for hours and I don’t know what time it is, and I haven’t had my coffee yet.  Isla already cracked some eggs, put her wellies on, and now wants to fly a kite.  That’s fine.  I love my experimental, outdoorsy, artistic child.  But lemme say something here.  Coffee before kites.

Coffee & Answers

15th July 2017

  If we were having coffee, you might remember I’m kindasortamaybe following along with the Ultimate Blog Challenge, or #blogboost. Today’s prompt is an Ask Me Anything post. Well.  That could go a lot of ways. You might also have figured that I’m trying to blog more consistently recently. My new intro thing to the blog would be: I’m Lorna. I’m an American living in Scotland for going on 25 years. Share a house in the boonies with my city…
