Category: Stupid Thoughts

Thoughts, musings and all around silliness – usually from my own world.

Supervision

Posted on September 16, 2021 by Detrecto

Group supervision on zoom is a great time to discuss the difficulties of working from home whilst simultaneously chasing a cat around the house with a dead thing hanging out of its mouth.

Selfie

Posted on September 9, 2021 by Detrecto

This is actually me after a 3 hour ‘Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep!’ session at 2:30am this morning. Highlights included Moshi, cats, Mia and Me, sleeping position and ‘snuggles’. If I hide in the home office* long enough, maybe she’ll fall to sleep on the couch and I won’t have to…

When home schooling during lockdown it’s important to try and find levity. So between tasks (or most of the time, more accurately, in the middle of a task – or probably even more accurately, 10 seconds into a task) we often break into doing something silly or talking about a subject that has absolutely nothing…

Goals

Posted on June 28, 2021 by Detrecto

I have a wonderful friend. Every single day come rain, hail or shine she gets up at 4:30am, draws up an exercise plan, meets with friends, does said exercise, goes for a swim in the ocean and then grabs coffee – all before most of us have woken from our slumber. She posts Facebook updates…

Be Nice

Posted on April 14, 2021 by Detrecto

A conversation I’ve been having a lot lately at work – the power of nice. It’s incredible how often we define ourselves by our objection or opposition to things. But in reality, wouldn’t the world be a much nicer and friendlier place if we built each other up, applauded people for finding what they love…

I have a blogger friend who spends a lot of time crafting beautifully written pieces that dissect every second of every delicately decided… decision. Her posts are  fascinating and lovely to read and often prompt me to consider and reconsider aspects of my work, my day and on one occasion, my career. They give a…

Why do clothes shops always put the clothes for short people on the top peg? Why can’t I write as eloquently here as I can in other places? Why are there so many people interested in marketing a blog with an obscure name, questionable contact and no visitors? (Ie. This one) When will I do…

Posted on October 18, 2020 by Detrecto

If at first you write the opening paragraph to a blog post and then delete it and then write it again and then delete it and then write it again and then delete it then you should probably realise that 8:53pm on a Sunday night after a sleepless night watching useless football teams lose against…

Minecraft

Posted on August 24, 2020 by Detrecto

It’s a good job this blog is anonymous because I’ve suddenly developed a bit of a thing about Minecraft. Initially this started because mini-Detrecto and I started messing around in creative mode. Just putting blocks on top of one another and then building pens for various animals. Fun stuff. But then a bad thing happened….

Passion

Posted on August 15, 2020 by Detrecto

When you go to training you inevitably go around the room and people introduce themselves and say what they are passionate about. I’m passionate about a few things in life but I can honestly say that I’d love to be as passionate about something in my life as my daughter is about blowing things up…
