About Unload & Unwind

 

WelcometomyblogWelcome to Unload and Unwind my name is Jenni not Trouble – don’t listen to my family they’re all a little crazy.  Other than me OF COURSE, I’m the only one who is able to take the high road and do so with great pride.  This pride has sadly led to many a tumble and slip but my wonderful and patient husband has never let me down when it comes to breaking my fall.  

I suppose the thing most people notice about me [other than my charm and good looks – shh mum or I’ll put you in a home] is my generosity of spirit and my deep belief in sharing my opinion with anyone who will stand still long enough to hear it.

If you’re busy and don’t have time to stop and listen don’t fret I’m nimble and can expound even as I chase you down the street.  I’ve recently started this blog for all those who are unlucky enough not to have the benefit of my erudite opinions in person and I would dearly love to see you at Unload and Unwind again.

Custom-Home-Library-Design-580x471So come on in and sit a spell, we’ve all sorts of different things for you to look at. You’ll find the Category list in the sidebar if you want to browse or the home page will give you an overview of the most recent posts. Please make yourself at home and feel free to have your say [I certainly do] about any of the pieces you read.  

I have always loved to write and eventually made a career out of it. Due to a number of reasons – which I’m quite sure will be covered over time I haven’t done as much of it recently outside of the work that I do. I’m hoping that as this blog grows so will I and I would love to have you along for the journey.

  3. Hello, I was brought over here by Aunty Uta. I have ticked follow because some the points above resonated with me, especially Australian politics and writing. I have a busy week ahead and will try and get back and have a better look next week. Bye for now.

    1. Thanks for taking the time to visit.

      When I was thinking about what I wanted to call this blog I decided that I didn’t want to talk or write about just one thing. I wanted a place where I could share a joke, tell a story and even have a rant when the mood struck me.

      So it seemed the best way to describe what my blog was, a place to Unload and Unwind.

      1. Perfect! When I was looking to name mine, the first word I thought of was “fast” as in I need to do this fast or I won’t be able to keep it up. I knew I wanted to write about Family dynamics, with a mix of what you describe. Finally, I’m a how-to, problem solving, answer seeking geek, so Answers fit 🙂 I look forward to reading more from you!

  6. Thanks so much for the follow – your site looks intriguing. A disclaimer for my site, it is more of a release of my perhaps more illicit notions. I have a more above board site of sorts with strictly timely poetry and writings if you are interested as well. 🙂

  9. Hello newest Spikey! I know, a bit corny, eh, but that’s the term that has come to stick for those folk who are part of the clan known to be followers of Uncle Spike 🙂

    Thank you… I really appreciate that as I for one, know how many interesting and entertaining blogs are out there.

    My aim is to deliver an eclectic offering of posts, from my ‘point n shoot’ attempts at basic photography, to the sharing of my travel adventures over the decades, as well as day to day happenings here on the farm. Oh, plus a few observations on life as I see it, thrown in for good measure.

    My promise to you is not to be overbearing, just a couple of posts a day, maybe 3 at weekends if I have something special to share. But if you are at a loose end one day, maybe you’ll enjoy trawling through some of my older stuff too. I have added plenty of categories to help in said digging process.

    Thanks again and hope you have a great day…

    UNCLE SPIKE
