I do some of my processing and journalling on paper, and some of it here, but probably most of it is in my head, composing blog posts that never make it, composing journal entries that I never really have time to write – but I think that’s still ok – the very existence of a journal and a blog is making me reflect and process and sift thoughts, ideas & feelings, even if they never make it to type or ink.
The last few weeks have been very much like that – there’s been so much going on, not just in my life, but in the lives of those around me. Hospitals, death, anniversaries, growing up, remembering, parenting,wondering,friendship, struggling, hoping – it’s all been in there. None of it would make much sense if I detailed it now, sometimes weeks or days or even years after the events. Lots of it I can’t blog about because it involves too much of other people. Some of that will make it to my paper journal. This post isn’t really about the “stuff” it’s about the process of processing. It’s quite a hard process sometimes, even when it’s only in my head I feel vulnerable and exposed. Current events can cause past events to freshen, old scabs to fall off – it’s a painful process too but a necessary one. Blog, or book or brain – it’s all good.

small print: I have read many but not all of the blogs tagged by others and I don’t endorse or necessarily agree with everything posted on them, but I may do…
My Blog is a Performer
March 13, 2009 at 5:41 pm (blogging, quiz)
According to Typealyzer anyway!
The analysis indicates that the author of
http://fibrefairy.wordpress.com is of the type:
ESFP – The Performers
Given that my actual MB type is ENFP I guess I’m writing fairly true to type then, but I do like a leetle bit of forward planning 
and I’m not scared of confrontation if it confronts me, but, no I don’t initiate it, there are better ways of dealing with things IMO!
New Home :-)

so how do you like my new home? I fancied a change – and I even managed to move all my stuff too without a cardboard box in sight – if only it was that easy in real life eh? Just the usual tweaking and redecorating required now!!
