I wonder if my MP is going to say anything in public today... # Don't expect answers from Kenny MacAskill either - when he was my MSP he thought he was above responding to letters from constituents... # RT @wilsondan "What's worse? Freeing dying terrorists or torturing possible terrorists?" # RT @wilsondan http://www.boycottscotland.co.uk/ Boycott Scotland! Come on a minority of Americans show us what you are made of!

Red Womban
I pull the card from the box and smile. Is it coincidence or connection that draws my fingertips to it? It is the first time I smile this morning - this morning is about managing pain... In SoulCollage we use the "I am the One who..." exercise to speak from the card...
I am the One who bleeds
I am the One who sees women ... read more
Quit Floating
I have not been giving my blog much attention recently and so I decided to resort to pulling a random SoulCollage card from my deck and free-writing from it (a handy trick that has worked in the past for this blogger).
When I pulled the card out I had a "oh no not that one - put it back quick!" reaction. As uncomfortable as it usually is, I find it is the signs, ... read more
Snake(s) In The Grass
Oh how things change. For years I have travelled to America visiting many interesting places, spending my tourist pounds and being curiously welcomed by strangers asking if I know any Ferguson's in Falkirk as that is where their great grandfather's second cousin twice removed came from. The only thing I've ever done in Falkirk is visit the Falkirk Wheel. My closest link to a Ferguson is the tractor my Granda drove around Belt Croft. My knowledge of ... read moreThis Week I Twittered About…
Today I woke up very early. No idea why. The upshot is I have just finished work for today :) # 4 minutes of Wildlife SOS and my eyes are flooding the house. Poor baby badger :( # We let Donald Trump in and al Megrahi out? The SNP are a bunch of fuckwits. # I don't think al Megrahi should have been freed but I don't think Obama or Clinton have much room to speak regarding terrorists and justice. # Gordon Brown, Alex Salmond and Kenny MacAskill should hang their heads in shame. ... read more

I came across two little friends this morning as I made my way to the top of The Binn. I'm going to go with my initial guess of Common Toad, although I think they were quite special ... read moreThis Week I Twittered About…

Baby Talk
There are many un-written blogs in the life of Taexalia, like the climbing of Ben Nevis or the trip to Norway. They lurk in my inner composter awaiting oxygen and some sort of activator to bring them to the cyber page... Jumping the queue somewhat is the familial encounter of the weekend just past. Writing about it may indeed break several of my personal rules of blogging. - one of which is not blogging about people who might read it and get upset. Well, tough quite frankly. My irk ... read more
