Dido in Dublin last night, embodiment of female power, strong performance, she has got better with age, her voice was FLAWLESS! And of course White Flag as a finale. 💕 #dido #whiteflag #womanpower #diva #songstress #3arena #dublin #music
Today Carys had a day's respite, so it was a good excuse to draw the curtains against the rainy afternoon and retire to bed with this beautiful thing! #perfectlypreventabledeaths by @propermiss I've been reading a lot of beautiful 'grown-up' writing lately (@sineadgleeson #ianmaleney #emilypine @elissa_altman ), but this afternoon I rediscovered my love of YA... this was chillingly dark, beautifully written, and so GRIPPING! I wonder why YA appeals to so many older women. It's easy to gloss over this question with a flippant 'it appeals to their inner child'. I think its more than that. Yes, this middle-aged body has sagged after bearing three children, it has aged with the hardship of raising a profoundly disabled child. But it's not just escapism. This reading experience revived the emotions of my youth, the essence of youth, in fact, the yearning for something inexplicable aroused by the poetry of song lyrics, the desire for flight brought on by music brushing feather-light through my soul, the nameless longing left in the wake of a novel's fine words. All these feelings I have suppressed as an adult moving through the stresses and strains of life. I regain my inner rebel only in the pages of a YA masterpiece. Thanks @propermiss ! 💕 To those who haven't yet read it, do, soon. #amreading #YA #teens #youngadultbooks #magic #witchcraft #witchy #middleagedwoman #innerrebel #bildungsroman
