Mhairi’s Week Nine

I spent this week in Wisconsin and was submerged in all manner of extended family life. Hearing a multitude of family stories drew me into thinking about the ramifications of certain decisions we make today having hugely lasting consequences for generations to come. How do we know that we are making the right decisions? If […]

Mhairi’s Week 8

The Week of my Birthday brought about contemplation for the year gone by and what I would like to bring into my new year. It’s a bit like the shedding of a skin, leaving a year behind and going straight into another.  I once heard an analogy about a car in a garage. In order […]

Mhairi’s Week Seven

Despite my being on the serious alert for all things significant and deep, I failed to think for a moment what the meaning of the pearl was; beyond what it meant to me personally. When I had been shopping for the beads with Johanna I had spotted the pearls and was compelled straight away to […]

Mhairi’s Week Six

This week was about allowing myself to daydream the life I see myself living before it actually comes to pass. I’m extremely happy in my day to day-its not at all a situation about daydreaming for something better-but rather its about having a strong direction and daydreaming about that. After all if you don’t know […]

Mhairi’s Week Five

The not neon week This week was like being beneath the hood of a car and tinkering. Traditionally for me post show or post shoot it can be a little flat. I find it can be hard to manage myself and my energy and possibly in the future, I should plan a trip to Hawaii […]

Mhairi’s Week Four

The theme for me this week was inspired by a simple instagram photo I had seen which said ‘she created the life she wanted to live’. It was a manic week as I prepped for the shoot of season 2 of Feathers and Toast. We were shooting 8 episodes in one day with another mime […]

Mhairi’s Week Three

Sometimes I have used words such as brave and courageous without really knowing what they meant in a day-to-day scenario. It’s a good thing to think of the big picture, of Joan of arc and what she did but how does that translate for me now? I’ve often thought that should I be required to […]

Mhairi’s Week Two

So, this week was a week of confronting things that I normally don’t like to think about. I tell you it was as if I was cleaning out a drawer. Things began to shift and I felt clearer headed and although I haven’t quite reached nirvana, things are shifting towards me actually being in charge […]

Mhairi’s Week One

The night before what felt like Christmas was a Thursday night. I had had issues with my beads and didn’t know how I was going to verify the number. I wanted precision. One of the things the beads are already impacting my life with, is that I want to lead a precise life. I don’t […]

Mhairi buys the jar

Luckily Johanna had mentioned about the dust to me, otherwise I would never have considered the need for a lid on the jar to hold my beads. I hadn’t considered either how tricky it would be to find a container beautiful and big enough to hold all my beads. I needed something that would be […]
