A sentiment I have been meaning to share for some time with you fellow Oddities. I have this little gem written on a Post-it stuck to my monitor at work so I can see it at all times. A post in the making for over a year now, never the right time, until today it … Continue reading My Mood does NOT Define my Mind
Dermatillomania and Me
I have never spoken about this before. This is quite a new and raw topic for me (in some places literally). For those of you who do not know, Dermatillomania is a skin-picking disorder often associated with Anxiety which can cause simple blemishes or small scabs to become deep, painful wounds through the process of … Continue reading Dermatillomania and Me
Hard-wired on Haywire
I'm stuck in 100MPH messy-mind mode and everything is super sharp and twitchy... My arms and legs feel restless and I'm jumping at small noises. The boss pulling the metal blind cord gently was like nails down a chalk board amplified. To sum up, full on flight mode! I didn't sleep well last night, I … Continue reading Hard-wired on Haywire
Unfathomable Tangled Yarn
Aaarrgggghhhhhhh, like today can just do one. I have 10,000 tasks to do and I know SOMEWHERE is the start of the ball of string which will help me unravel and complete my day! Can I find the end?? Hell no! It's like I'm trying to find the end of a ball of Wool whilst … Continue reading Unfathomable Tangled Yarn
“Normal” – The most Dangerous Word – Part 1
It's 9:08am here in Oddity-land. I have spent the last hour and eight minutes biting my tongue and inwardly seething at every word spoken by my racist; privileged; idiotic and entirely infuriating co-workers since I walked in the door this morning. The topics of "discussion" this morning so far have included: George Floyd (and his … Continue reading “Normal” – The most Dangerous Word – Part 1
The Revolutionary Calm
Another striking piece of writing. During these difficult days I truly hope we can let go of some of our vanity and greed... just be grateful for our health and for the health of those we love. Keep safe, stay strong. Luna xxx
Common Sense my Arse!
Hello my beloved friends and readers, I have been meaning to write for some time, especially during the UK Lockdown period (during which I was at home, my workplace having closed). Unfortunately, like with many other people, my Mental Health took a nosedive and I spiralled down into a nocturnal "sleep n snack" lifestyle. Not … Continue reading Common Sense my Arse!
Drunk on Emotions
It's night time. I should be asleep; work beckons come sunrise... I've been at home the last few days unwell (not the C-virus, thanks for asking). I feel physically better but mentally all messed up. I have so many questions without answers. That's hard to live with. Most of them the BIG questions beyond our … Continue reading Drunk on Emotions
Splitting Ends
Greetings from the other side of the Mountain friends! Sorry to have been away so long but my Mental Health took such a dip I went internal and am only just starting to re-emerge as a new (and hopefully healthier and stronger) reincarnation of Luna. I have taken some much needed time off work (to … Continue reading Splitting Ends

I have entered my first ever photography competition and would greatly appreciate any votes towards my submission. The … Continue reading Self improvement
