hello loves 

it’s been a packed weekend - i played two shows for the first time in ever and they were magnificent ... thank you to the NZ patrons who trekked so far. i had a lot on my mind this morning and the birds were chirping so i made a voice ramble for the first time in a long time. it’s here on soundcloud ... about 17 minutes and yes i cry a bit at the end

Being a Mom who does it all is my life. I get it. You’re amazing. I love you and your music very much. Just felt like letting you know that today. This ramble hit me in a spot I forgot about or never forgot but ignored. I had a bit of a flash back to recent, yet long ago, Traumas. Per usual, I feel like your experiences are an extension of my experiences. That being said; I can not wait to hear this new song. Xoxo 😘

Not sure if you've answered this already, but any chance you'll be coming down to Wellington? It would be a dream to see you live!

Welcome to Tāmaki Makaurau Amanda. The weather is a bit dodgy this weekend but Auckland on a fine day can charm the weary traveler. Thank goodness for a break from the relentless and overwhelming task of parenting and the chance to make some art. Some time to process things is like gold. I hardly painted for five years after my son was born! Looking forward to hearing the new recording.

Amanda, I love you. Didn't know how much I needed to hear this voice ramble. It's always comforting to hear your voice and was good to cry with you. It makes me happy to hear you're getting space and time to create and that you're navagating your way through this shit show of a year like a boss. Much love 💜

I have shared the link to HEADCOUNT on my Facebook page as well as checked with my friends and family. Our voices will be heard! Thank you for your voice Amanda.

1.30am in launnie - suck it up buttercup outside with candle & hot toddie. Looking at the dark west hill. Loving you, your you-ness, your choices for being... from afar. Remembering the beauty of That confessional x x

Some days are better than other days and some days are tell everyone to leave you room days. Because you were trying to have a nice moment after you finished your essential jog at 9pm with your daughter on the spectrum even though you haven’t finished logging your chargeable hrs . But your daughter did finish her melt down, all your clients are alive, you had a nice few moments before your daughter said those few truthful words about you that made you so upset you went to your room like a desperate despairing teenager you have not been in a long time. Why are kids soo perceptive. Mum does like affection, it is sad no one wants to touch her. She didn’t quit say this, but it’s the inference and actually my daughter made a joke out of it. If we weren’t in lockdown for the third mind and I hadn’t just gained three dress sizes I probably would have laughed.
