My little witchlet got her braces.

Which is a perfectly normal milestone and something to be expected. What I was not prepared for was the immediate shift in behaviour that seems to have come with it.

She says she now identifies as a kitchen utensil and she keeps pointing to one of the brackets and telling me she’s picking up radio waves.

There is a level of commitment to this that I can’t fault, even if I don’t fully understand it.

I’m very proud of her. She’s funny, cheeky, and very comfortable in her own skin.

So much for the dangerous, aggressive, terrifying dogs.

What I actually have are two rottweilers who seem to believe they are small, emotionally dependent lapdogs, with absolutely no awareness of their size or the physical consequences of their decisions.

There is nothing quite like being pinned to the sofa by something that could comfortably take you out, while it attempts to sit directly on your chest because it wants attention immediately and without negotiation.

People worry about them being dangerous.
They are, just not in the way anyone expects. You’re constantly covered in bruises, and not because you’re clumsy.

Thursday’s cacao ceremony went very well.
Possibly a bit too well.

I’m now in the slightly awkward position of having to recreate that energy and act like it was the plan all along. 😉

This month’s family day out has been decided and, for reasons that made complete sense at the time, we are going axe throwing.

It felt like a good idea when I booked it, something a bit different that we’d all enjoy and a step away from the usual options, but since then my husband has already asked which child is the target, which I feel adds a certain tone to the whole experience that I was not expecting.

I’m sure it’ll be a good laugh, I’m just not entirely convinced it’ll be a calm or well-regulated one, but we’ll see how it plays out.

I’ll report back once we’ve survived 🎯🪓

Owning a car over the past few years has turned into one of those things that costs far more than it ever did before.

This year started off simple enough. A notification to say my road tax was due, followed closely by the reminder that my insurance was up for renewal, and then being told I needed two new front tyres.

You never really plan for these things, but somehow it both feels necessary and, right now, overtly offensive at the same time.

And then you make the mistake of having a proper look inside it.

Because of course you have a family, and dogs, and whatever else has made its way in there, so now on top of everything else, it needs cleaned as well.

At this point it feels like the car has a life of its own, a portion of my income, and is making regular withdrawals without checking in with me first. 🚗💸💸💸

Thursday night’s Women’s Circle was… not light. It had weight to it. The kind of space where you can feel the energy build in the room.

For me, there’s no coasting through something like that. You have to concentrate and hold it the whole time, and so is everybody else in their own way.

At one point in the evening, we moved into a four-minute hug.

Now, in theory, this was a good idea. It is grounding, regulating, good nervous system work, held within safe connection.

But…

In reality, one of the women immediately got the giggles because she was absolutely convinced this was about to escalate into something vaguely ta***ic and wildly inappropriate.

Which, to be clear, it was not.

But that moment, that break in intensity, is exactly what I love about these spaces. It shows how quickly people’s nervous systems can trip, how discomfort with the heavier things can come out sideways as laughter.

It proves that no matter how grounded the intention is, things will never run entirely smoothly when you have a group of women together.

I am pleased to report that no one got ta***ic or died from holding a hug for 4 minutes, and everyone survived by the skin of their teeth.

This weekend is scheduled to be quiet and relaxing.

My son is away to spend time with his girlfriend, so the plan is to curl up on the sofa with my daughter, stick something on Netflix, and actually sit still for a bit.

Realistically, though, this involves spending time with a child who is both hysterically funny and unexpectedly savage, so there’s a strong possibility I won’t be relaxing so much as being lightly emotionally attacked from the comfort of my own sofa.

At least I’ll be settling down when her verbal ribbing begins.

Another delivery of books arrived today, and right now there is already an entire room in the house that is taken up completely by unread books.

So bringing more in did feel like something that should have been questioned at some stage.

But let’s be honest, who am I kidding?
They’ve gone straight in with the others, which has now turned from a to-be-read pile into a fully established to-be-read hoard.

I keep telling myself I’ll work through them, as if at some point the day is going to miraculously expand from 24 hours to 48, although I have no evidence to support that this will ever happen.

The problem is my brain and my buying habits have not yet caught up with each other, so I am still adding to it consistently, and with the full commitment of someone who has absolutely no intention of slowing down.

Right now, it’s less about reading and more about expanding a collection, like I’m building something, although I’m not entirely sure what.

A library, hopefully.
A problem, more realistically.
I’m choosing to believe it’s the first one.

Thursday night’s Sacred Space Clearing started with me announcing that we had “new toys,” which, in hindsight, set a tone I had absolutely no control over.

The women immediately latched onto that and spiralled into a full discussion about “vibes,” and not in the calm, grounded, room-energy sense. This was… significantly more open to interpretation.

From there, as these things tend to do, it escalated beyond anything I could reasonably rein back in.

Percussion sticks came out, people fully committed, and within minutes there was an absolute racket building, like we’d either lost control of the situation or were about to summon something by accident.

And then we started lighting things on fire.
Sage, palo santo, dragon’s blood… all making their way around the room while I stood there watching it unfold, fully aware this had moved beyond a simple space clearing.

And you could actually see the shift.
People went from laughing and chaotic to completely chilled, slightly glazed, and not entirely operating within the usual parameters of reality.

I’m not saying the room was cleared, but everyone in it definitely was.

We’re now eight weeks into the 26-week wellbeing programme funded by the National Lottery Community Fund.

At the beginning, everything feels new. There’s energy, momentum, and a sense that you’re starting something important. You’re setting everything up, getting the admin in place, crossing the T’s and dotting the I’s, and it carries you along in a bit of an oblivious bubble for a while.

By this point, that settles.
What you’re left with is the actual shape of what you’ve created. The commitment. The consistency. Turning up each week and holding the space properly, whether for you it’s a good day, a flat day, or somewhere in between.

And it turns out that most of the real work sits right here, in the part that doesn’t look like much from the outside.

Funding seems to drop at the same time throughout the year.

You go from nothing available to everybody’s funding everything, all at once.
One minute there’s nothing to apply for and suddenly there’s a flood.

All of it relevant. All of it equally as urgent, but needing slightly different versions of the same information. Just to keep you on your toes.

So now I’m reading criteria like it’s an IQ test, mentally allocating money that doesn’t yet exist, and future-proofing outcomes for projects that haven’t even been approved.

Although this may sound very productive, I appear to have convinced myself I have enough time to manage all of this.
