The Offering
What stirs in the spaces between sleep and waking
Cold earth shifts beneath
something pale uncurls, reaching
for the moon's dead light.

From Newcastle To Whitby
Introduction I love going to Whitby and I used to drive but Whitby is not a place for cars, just park them and that's it. We usually stay at La Rosa (my favorite hotel ever) or Dillons (just a lovely welcoming place) and my stories about them are at the end of this.

Why Didn't Anyone Tell Us
Men, move along. This is not for you. This is for the women. I was forty-five when I began menopause. It is pretty young for that to be going on in a womanโs life, but I had undiagnosed PCOS, my entire life. Thank you to all the gynecologists I had seen my entire life. That in itself should encourage women to keep seeking second opinions, especially when you are not getting correct answers or any at all.
