Okay, so during my usual scrolling of Facebook, I stumbled across this … More Rieldans!
Cannot believe that it has been six months since my last blog post. Not to say that I haven’t been thinking of new things to write, it’s just that the actual writing never took place. Not even a poorly compiled draft. 😱 So, to my (millions of) followers <insert laughter, with sad head tilt > … More 6 months later

This Thankful Thursday didn’t take much thought or effort. I extremely thankful for all the positive people in my life, and those I get to come across while doing life. Those Encouragers and Optimists, who get you out of your funk, even when you don’t realise you’re in one. I’m thankful to the super cheery … More Thankful Thursday: Positive vibes is the DNA of my tribe
