A wonderful cover of Morrissey’s song:
Sun Died Every Night.
July 19, 2013
Tell me the story
about how the sun loved
the moon so much
he died every night
to let her breathe.He disappears into darkness
to let her shine.
To which he never said
he owes something to her
he never wanted anything
from her in return.
Or else what could moon give
She just shine bright to his love
she has craters
but only a fool can deny her beauty.
She silently stare sun whole night
& reflects his light
his love with stars at times.Tell me the story
about how the sun loved
the moon so much
he died every night
to let her breathe.

Wee chicken face ….
July 18, 2013
regular fife council, recycling 2 Comments
Ohhhh .. I have my wee chicken face on today … (and not because of lack of sleep).
I live down a wee country lane just outside Dunfermline … Fife Council in all their wisdom decided that our lane was too “bumpy” and caused “too much vibration” for the workers in the rubbish lorries (no .. I am not kidding!)
They informed us that our bins (they gave us 2 extra bins for each household) were to be taken to the end of the lane for collection. I contacted Fife Council as I have a dodgy back and cannot take the bins to the end of the lane if they are full.
I was informed by the Recycling Department that a mistake had been made and the bins should have been left at the end of the lane for us and that men would be sent out to move them. Which they did. Unfortunately the collection lorry had been round BEFORE they moved our bins so our general waste (which is now a blue bin and also the old general waste in a black bin) had not been emptied.
I contacted the council AGAIN to explain the situation and was assured that the bins (black and blue) would be collected and emptied.
Nothing has happened. Today the bin lorry came round and stuck a sticker on the black bins sayng that they would not be emptied because the contain general rubbish … YES you bloody idiots THEY DO .. because YOU have not emptied them since the 26th of June!!
I have phoned the council again today .. they have 1 last chance to empty the black bins .. they MUST be emptied by 5pm tomorrow evening otherwise I will arrange private collection of the rubbish and bill the council for that AND my time and phonecalls.
I cannot believe such a large organisation such as Fife Council can get something so wrong .. is it incompetence, is it stupidity or just a general apathy?
Who knows.. but empty my bins you stupid buggers!!!
Rant over!
Don’t Stop….

OOPS I boobed .. THIS is from last year .. the last one was the year before … wow .. time does fly!!!!
In our lives we meet people who will end up being unforgettable for all the right reasons.
Not the ex’s or friends who betray and hurt us but the lovers and friends who stand by you through your tough times and try to help you find your peace again.
Each lover we have is not necessarily the one we will hold forever but to have someone in your life who you have loved and continue to love in a different sort of way is probably one of the most important things that we can have. This love is more heartfelt and sincere than any other.
If we are really lucky we will meet friends who inspire us, make us smile in those wee quiet moments when we are alone and who make our life that little bit better by just being there and knowing they care.
Sometimes we never tell…

The crossroad of life
July 18, 2013
I thought, out of interest I would take a look back on where I was and my thoughts from last year ..
There are many crossroads in life. Some we pass through without realising, until we look back at our past, at others we have to decide what is the best route for us to follow.
Often we meet the same choices at different times in our life, but each time we reach this point the road we choose will, more often than not, be different. As it should be. If it never changes, we never grow, develop, become.
Today has been one of those days for me.. I think, deep down, I knew it was coming but this weekend I have a lot of thinking to do. I have been fighting with my conscience and my need over the past few months and much more so over the last week, but today a comment made me realise that perhaps the decision I have been in a quandry over is actually what is needed.

How to understand depression
July 17, 2013
regular depression, lesbian, life, stress Leave a comment
I found this video doing the rounds on Facebook.
Last year I suffered from depression. To say it was a shock to the system is an understatement.
In a way it was probably one of the best things to happen to me… it made me stop, think and re-evaluate my life. Decide what is important, and what is not.
I have tried in previous posts to describe this time, but this video says it much better than I ever could!
Share the love

regular adoption, civil ceremony, friendship, lesbian, marriage Leave a comment
Over the past few weeks I have witnessed love being shared in the most amazing ways between some wonderful friends.
I attended the civil ceremony celebration of Gillian and Terri, the wedding of Jean and Wullie and this Thursday my great “bloke” mate Marina will have a civil ceremony with the lovely Lorraine.
All of these are fantastic examples of love between two people and the happiness that they share with friends and family.
I am also very privileged to watch the story unfold of two wonderful friends who are nearing completion of adopting two children. I will not name them for privacy reasons, but many of our shared friends will know who I mean.
The two friends in question are the most wonderful, open hearted, caring women you can ever hope to meet. They are happy to dedicate their lives and sacrifice a lot for the love they have for others in need.
I admire all my friends, I love so many people for their caring attitude, their honesty, their humour and their courage but these two friends have shown me that happiness is found by sharing and caring for others.
There are many people in life who are happy to take, to use, to see a benefit out of a friendship. These people do not stay in your life.
The beautiful people do.
Thank you my beautiful friends.
The ebb and flow of love
July 16, 2013
Relationships are never easy, they are not meant to be. They make us happy, they make us angry, they may make us sad but they make us!.
Communication is the key to every relationship. I do not mean the day to day chit chat but real communication, whether it be verbal or physical, but communication is the key that we often misplace.
It is not always about what is said, or what is implied, a lot of the time we forget to listen, I mean really listen without already starting to form a reply or rebuff in our minds. There is nothing more heartbreaking than knowing that what you have said has not been heard, or it has been ignored or turned around.
It is also a two way thing, you cannot have someone who is willing to talk and one who isn’t or one who is not capable of hearing what is being said. In these cases it is not a working relationship but a relationship that one person is working at.
Frustration at not being heard will kill any relationship, having to repeat, having to explain the same thing over and over will never allow the relationship to flow and be peaceful and the realisation that if someone cannot listen to the little things then the big things will be equally ignored.
Sometimes our lack of communication or understanding are for entirely different reasons. We can be misguided by our own thoughts, our own minds, our own moods but if a relationship is strong enough and a true partnership then the other will understand and accept that this is just part of a normal relationship, the ebb and flow of love.
Some put up with relationships that do not work because they cannot face being single. Being single does NOT mean being alone, it simply means that for most of us we are strong enough to enjoy our own company, to find our own peace.
Honesty and trust is probably the single most important thing in any relationship. Once it has gone you begin to close up, begin to doubt.
Understanding and communication does come with maturity. We know in ourselves where we find our peace, who can give us the peace we need, not all the time, but at the important times when we need it the most.
We know who will stand by us. We know who won’t. It is a gut feeling, an instinct and it is always right.
Brae. A gay woman's tale!
