Caution, deep waterCaution, deep water

You might think my work trips are just an excuse to visit friends in the USA. You’re wrong. I really do go to the office in New York. And then I sing at the Bitter End. And then I visit friends.

Second HoneymoonSecond Honeymoon

February 7, 2023 Tina 0 Comments

There is nowhere more romantic than Hawaii. So when the internet said that the cheapest way to get to Arizona for a conference was via Honolulu I literally swooned. Who knew I’d end up on a honeymoon? Turned out, this trip was to be abit like marriage and camping. Overrated.

Obviously the writing gods must know I’ve been a bit lax about working on my novel lately. Who would have thought there’d be an actual crime scene out the front of my house on Christmas Eve, followed by a medical emergency on the train to Yamba. Writer’s block over. We

Pink boots or not, I’ve still got itPink boots or not, I’ve still got it

November 29, 2022 Tina 2 Comments

It’s been a few weeks since I hung up the pink boots and I haven’t missed it. To be fair most of that time has been spent sick in bed. But it’s good to know that with or without the boots on, I can still manage traffic. Yesterday, I finally

Remember back at start of the FOT, I was on a reconnaissance mission. I had a year’s head start on my friend Jane in the “what do we do with our lives once the kids finish school” game. Well, today is the day. Jane has finished high school for the

I must admit, I’ve become somewhat of an expert at dropping the microphone. I probably have done it in 50 ways. But in the last few years, even I have taken things to the next level. I still rate this conversation last year as my best: Tina to Engineer: Hey,

The Festival of Tina has been all about changing things up, taking a chance and having fun. But maybe deep down I didn’t really believe it was possible for your luck to change. But it has. Things have really changed. No more walking along, minding your own business and a

Funny hats are the bestFunny hats are the best

September 27, 2022 Tina 0 Comments

If I had known 6 months ago how many friends you make by wearing a funny hat, I would have designed a special FOT one then and there. The Festival of Tina technically ends on 18 October 2022, although I’ve now decided to keep it going. Who says it can’t

Is a mid life crisis a one-off thing or a series of events? Each time I try to rejoin ‘real life’ I want to run like I’m on fire. I mean I’m not buying a Porsche or anything but at this rate I might say yes to a time share.

August 17, 2022 Tina 5 Comments

I came back home from the USA with a spring in my step, ready to restart my writing career and continue with my fitness regime. I should have just laid on the lounge and waited for the feelings to pass. While I was in Nashville and Cincinnati, I was going
