I almost didn’t publish this post today. At some point, I will write more about what these past 72 hours have been like. Not to overstate my troubles in the context of people going through awful things in real life (IRL), but the unexpected tsunami I unleashed with my comments about the worship of sports stars on The Today Show has been quite something to behold. Not to understate those who have agreed or disagreed with me calmly and with respect but there has also been a savage, vicious, ugly level of hate aimed at me from those who I don’t usually come across around here or on Twitter or Facebook.

Enough about that. The Mamamia team have convinced me to soldier on with this post and I think they’re right.

So here we go. In comments, it’s your turn to say anything you like about anything on your mind (OMM, in case you’re wondering is ‘On My Mind’).

Stretching

I hold my tension in my neck and shoulders when I’m stressed. Here I am trying to stretch it out…..while inadvertantly flashing a bit of knicker.

Leiby Kletzy’s parents make a statement

After their 8 year old son Leiby Kletzy was murdered earlier this month – his parents have released a statement here.

In part it says:

The nail polish

A bunch of new nail polishes arrived in the office from Kit and Bloom (their Sass & Bide collaboration). Lana and Nicky did a road test…..

The cupcakes

Another day, another birthday and Lana got busy baking.

Nicky and Lana

The elephants

Lana is trying to bring Africa into the office.

Too posh to push – ENOUGH

Reading this article about Posh Spice having a Caesarean made me a bit nuts this week:

The key point here is “has never discussed the reasons behind it”. Should she have to? Branding her ‘too posh to push ‘ is unfair and further stigmatises any woman who has a caesarean – either by choice or necessity. Enough.

How’s your week going?
