In The Room | Good Gravey!
https://goodgravey.wordpress.com/2013/08/26/in-the-room
My blog, my rules. Saving and annoying the world – 500 words at a time. Monday, 26 August 2013 by Good Gravey. So I have told you about my mother. What I’d like to do now is go over the events of that day. Trigger warning for abusive behaviour. And if any of my family read this…absolutely no fucking apologies. Learn some fucking respect for others. And I finally got up and had some breakfast before heading up. Then conversation turned to various things. Brother A started telling work stories. The...Now, ...

Life Journal | Good Gravey!
https://goodgravey.wordpress.com/life-journal
My blog, my rules. Saving and annoying the world – 500 words at a time. I think I need to split my blogging in two. One is more of a life journal, the other is my “issues’ blogging. That way I can just natter about what is happening in my life as a release more than anything else. Or I can try and spread messages of what I think are important issues. This is just an experiment anyway, and an attempt to try and get back into writing on a more regular basis. Let’s see how it goes. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Pay It Forward – The power of a single act | Good Gravey!
https://goodgravey.wordpress.com/2012/09/02/pay-it-forward-the-power-of-a-single-act
My blog, my rules. Saving and annoying the world – 500 words at a time. Pay It Forward – The power of a single act. Sunday, 2 September 2012 by Good Gravey. First up – my sincere apologies for not writing for a while. I haven’t had the right access to a computer at the right time for a while, and hate writing posts on my phone. So this is just a quickie post to get me back in the game. I tweeted about the movie Pay IT Forward last night. And got a response from Charlie Johnson. Not only was I transformed...

Monsters among us | Good Gravey!
https://goodgravey.wordpress.com/2014/02/10/monsters-among-us
My blog, my rules. Saving and annoying the world – 500 words at a time. Monday, 10 February 2014 by Good Gravey. It was a tweet from an awesome activist Twitter friend who led me to think of this. Much like in some horror movies and stories, there are monsters among us. Very real monsters. Walking the streets, sharing our lives, hidden in shadows or wearing masks to make them look like one of us. But they’re not. What I am talking about here is oppression in its various forms. As with the tweet about tra...

Wrap up for 2013 | Good Gravey!
https://goodgravey.wordpress.com/2013/12/30/wrap-up-for-2013
My blog, my rules. Saving and annoying the world – 500 words at a time. Wrap up for 2013. Monday, 30 December 2013 by Good Gravey. It has been an….interesting year. A few deaths, a great many friends, a wedding, a wedding announcement, challenges, job losses, job threats, wins, losses. And through it all, you. All of you. And I am grateful for that. Probably the major event of the year was the day my mother died. Well, keep reading, dear friend, and you will see what I mean. We are never alone, no matter...

My mother | Good Gravey!
https://goodgravey.wordpress.com/2013/08/19/my-mother
My blog, my rules. Saving and annoying the world – 500 words at a time. Monday, 19 August 2013 by Good Gravey. This post has been a long time coming. Mind you, any. Post has been a long time coming. I had written about my mum previously. But I wanted to dedicate a new post to her. She passed away on 18 July 2013. It wasn’t a particularly sad event because she had been wanting to die for some time. It honestly was a release for her. My mum had neurofibromatosis. Mum was a brilliant cook. As children, ...

On letting go | Good Gravey!
https://goodgravey.wordpress.com/2013/11/03/on-letting-go
My blog, my rules. Saving and annoying the world – 500 words at a time. Sunday, 3 November 2013 by Good Gravey. One of the things that has changed my life the most is that I have learned to let go. But it is a lesson I started learning a long time ago. And possibly the most difficult thing we can learn. For many years, I still reacted badly to events in my life. Still had the rage. Maybe it was growing up (finally) or maybe it was some of the things I had to face. But things started to take o...But these...

Of lost souls and captured hearts | Good Gravey!
https://goodgravey.wordpress.com/2011/10/10/of-lost-souls-and-captured-hearts
My blog, my rules. Saving and annoying the world – 500 words at a time. Of lost souls and captured hearts. Monday, 10 October 2011 by Good Gravey. Seeing as today is my fifth wedding anniversary, I thought I would make this post about how I met my wife, and just how she changed my life. I had spent most of my life feeling utterly unloved and unlovable. Growing up, I thought myself ugly inside and out, and was constantly reminded of how despicable I was through bullying. Memory snapshot: Bringing in my wa...

Coping – one story (a Monday quickie) | Good Gravey!

My blog, my rules. Saving and annoying the world – 500 words at a time. Coping – one story (a Monday quickie). Monday, 15 August 2011 by Good Gravey. I amazed myself one time when I realised how I coped with things. 8220;Gosh, that looks strange” says I. Then. It starts moving around her back and changing colour. Hmmmm … not good.
