I thought and I thought… then life interrupted.

I thought I’d write blog-posts more often. But then, I thought I’d do a lot of things. I mean, simply put, I thought I’d paint the bathroom (whose walls have been mostly rough, ugly plaster since we tore down the wallpaper two years ago). I definitely thought I’d have figured out how to stop eating […]

The Chaos of my oh-so-Mum Life!

In an era where so many of us consume far far more than we create… here’s me creating at last. My writing is like my mind and my life is a mirror reflection of that; I’m obsessed with a million different things, from trying to master a pull up to speaking fluent French; Vipassana meditation […]

Curry, Chaos and Love the story of an Irish girl's life-changing journey to India by Elizabeth O'Brien

Curry, Chaos and Love – the story of an Irish-girl’s life-changing journey to India

Drum roll……. I wrote a book! I published the book! And I finally, fiiiiinally released the book on April 24th at a very special book launch that was one of the best evenings of my life. The venue was perfect, the food was delicious, so many of my friends and family made the effort to […]

One Satisfied Writer (Day 94)

I’m so bold.  I just realized I never posted yesterday’s scribble, though I had it written and ready to go (besides adding a photo) by 7 pm last night. Oops. It’s a funny thing, but if you read that post and see where I finished it and then check the title, you might think it’s […]

A (sunny) day in the life (Day 35)

Writing everyday is a big challenge. I don’t want to spew out crap just for the sake of completing this ‘daily scibble’ project, that would be pointless. But what exactly am I meant to write about?  My life really isn’t that exciting nor are my thoughts that deep and meaningful to offer endlessly engaging ideas […]

Wonder Woman does Waitressing (Day 26)

Today was another good day. Wonder Woman was around this time for sure – if I didn’t have a streak of her inside I’d never have survived the restaurant shift today.  I’m currently so pooped I can barely drag one foot in front of the other. Fridays, ah Fridays…  In every restaurant, there’s always one day […]

Heartbroken… for no apparent reason (Day 18)

I don’t know how many other people will get this and sexist as it may sound, I really doubt many guys will. Today for no reason, throughout my shift at work and the evening afterwards, I was joined by an unwanted companion, following me like a slave in chains taking slow aching steps… It was […]
