Thinking about Kaprekar's Constant and how it works. I'm not numbers-minded, so I'm guessing some kind of witchcraft.

Maths people, help!

You know how sometimes you go through life singing lyrics, but sometimes don't really LISTEN?

"I Woke Up In A Strange Place" by Jeff Buckley.

Ooof. A tad darker than I remembered.

Insomnia gives you more time to freak out about the world your child will inherit. Not loving this...at all.

This morning’s sunshine has reminded me of the word ‘philocaly’: a love of beauty, even in the smallest things.

Being beautiful, gorgeous, or pretty to me has more to do with how someone treats other people than what they look like. Do they give a hand to those in need, how kind are they? A person's exterior is no different than a well-painted wall - eventually, it will fade, but their actions leave a legacy.

To be a magnet of happiness requires feeling happy, thinking happy thoughts, and acting with happiness towards others.

Being a human right now is extremely heavy; time to bask in the glory that is Mother Nature. Spent some time at Kakamatua today getting sandy, wet and sun-kissed. Met some beautiful, happy doggos. Absolute soul food 💙

My cousin sent me this - she's been eating pickles and peanut butter on Vogels bread and swears it's delicious.

Shall I give it a go? It's either going to be the ultimate stoner food or completely vile.

The Child and I are off to see an adaptation of Shakespeare's "Richard III" under the stars this week at The Pumphouse. Throwback photo of me chillin' in front of The Bards house. Stratford-upon-Avon, 2017.

Day 3 of #ArtAdventCalendar - I hope everyone is enjoying this hashtag as much as me?

This painted stone depicts a pair of Ravens at the Elan Valley in Wales, which is an International Dark Sky Park. I’ve always been pleased with the way this stone turned out. 🌘

Hey friend,

The world is a shit-show. You're tired, angry, afraid, worried. You just want peace, abundance & hope.

Look for beauty. Take time & space to rest. Be gentle with yourself, because the world won't be. Stay hydrated. Get some sunshine. Hug everyone.

This, too, shall pass.

Love you 💚🩷
