Exposed – 1 Year Anniversary

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife

Almost one year ago I posted a picture of myself in my underwear as part of the EXPOSED movement started by the gorgeous Mish. I don’t look like that any more … I’m a little heavier but I don’t mind – it’s kind of irrelevant. This year, instead of exposing my body, I’m exposing my soul. In… Read More

I’m for the Broken Hearted

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife

You know your heart is broken. You live with the pain everyday. It is that relentless ache in your chest and that empty feeling in your belly that won’t go away. You’ve felt it before – when someone you loved betrayed you – but this time your heart is broken because you feel you are… Read More

Trigger Me This

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife

There has been a lot of blog chatter about the Marie Claire article that claims some health and fitness bloggers aren’t as healthy as they claim. I don’t have an opinion on the quoted bloggers healthiness because I don’t read them. In fact, I don’t read any blogs any more that document daily food intake and exercise… Read More

Baby Oil by Any Other Name

by KatieP, in category Health | Sexuality

Today I was trawling the internet to ascertain if baby oil up my clacker was a health hazard (as you do). The answer is no — not a problem at all. In my travels I stumbled upon a forum that had obviously been translated from another language … I’m a manly and I alway use… Read More

The Time Has Come

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife

The time has come to leave behind the armour that your fat affords you. It is now perfectly safe to move in the world without your padding. And in the same way as you discard your winter coat once the weather begins to warm, you can discard your winter coat of comfort, solace and protection.… Read More

The Grass is Greener

by KatieP, in category Health | Sexuality

How do you choose between being content with what you have that is easy, familiar and comfortable or going after your dreams of living a great big exciting life? Do we just think the grass is greener on the other side of the fence, or is it actually grass that is infinitely better than the… Read More

Photos

by KatieP, in category Health | Sexuality

At writing class, they asked us to find an old photo and to write about all the memories it evoked. I wrote an essay explaining why I no longer have any photos … I published it at Band Back Together because it felt too brutal and cold to include here. Please click here to read… Read More

Sunflowers

by KatieP, in category Health | Sexuality

Suicide claims on average the lives of seven Australians a day. There are approximately 65,000 suicide attempts each year – and more than 2,200 loved ones will die by suicide in Australia annually. Despite these horrifying numbers, suicide remains a taboo in Australia and is still horribly misunderstood and mistreated. Friday, 10th of September is… Read More

I’m saying I can’t with deftness and care

by KatieP, in category Health | Sexuality

Right now, I’m not a good daughter, I’m not a good friend, and I’m probably not a very good girlfriend. The thing is that I don’t have a capacity to give of myself to other people. I can’t be the peacemaker, the funny girl, the problem solver, the inspiration, or the one who rolls with… Read More

There’s Always Someone Skinnier

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife

On Sunday I cried in Myer, I cried in George Street and I cried in the QVB. Not just a single tear squeezed out discreetly but full on sobbing on Duckfish’s shoulder. Was I crying because my heart was broken, because I had lost something dear to me or because I was in pain? …… Read More

Why I’ve “Let Myself Go”

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife

Although I don’t blog a lot these days, I still read other people’s blogs on a regular basis. Many people I have followed for years and I have watched them constantly struggle with their weight. There is not one person I know in the “fitness” community who wouldn’t like to lose at least another 5… Read More

The Simple Things

by KatieP, in category Health | Sexuality

I am so grateful for the simple things opening the passenger side car door for me handing me my seatbelt fish and chips on the beach a resident parking permit checking the mailbox at my old flat for me a postcard from Bali – our first mail addressed to us a couple (Hi Shelley ♥)

Hardly Recognisable

by KatieP, in category Health | Sexuality

As I sit here in the study surrounded by my books beautifully displayed in a custom-built bookshelf, listening to the kids packing up their beds in the living room and smelling bacon and eggs cooking for breakfast, I can barely recognise my life. I have gone from a highly insulated solitary existence to being part… Read More
