Boxing Day 2024

The best part about my Boxing day was seeing Karen so chirpy and looking well it was so great to see and I have to say unexpected. It was good to go down to a kitchen that was tidy having worked hard to do dishes and tidy up throughout the the big day meaning Boxing […]

Christmas Day 2024

It always begins at 7am they’re just conditioned not to start the day any earlier but after that free to go! I stood filming like I always do, by 7:30 and both Reagan and Lincoln lived their best life for the next 15 mi uses watched by two very proud parents Grandma and Auntie Nemily. […]

Ti’s the eve

As we sat watching The Snowman followed by the Snowman and the Snow Dog both Jamie and me looked at our family and were just bowled over by what we did. As a couple we began in an unconventional way but on the eve of Christmas we are as conventional as we could possibly be […]

Big Shop

To have to go to the supermarket the day before Christmas Eve filled me with dread but do you know what I reckon I could anything with Jamie and enjoy it, and we did! We sat there tonight, reflecting on the day and how we both faded half way round but it was about buying […]

Men, why?

Listening

I learned more about a work colleague in three and a half hours today than I had learned in 8 months and all it took was to listen without prejudice, something I have learned from Jamie. A young lad that doesn’t talk a lot, very clever but  everyone introduced him as autistic and not talkative […]

They’re all gone, sir

Not the best day, finally had my meeting with the bosses and was told the plan, and as I suspected they’re all gone everyone except me. There is a plan but nothing in place yet so in their words, it going to be “Bumpy” in the new year. Give me strength! After the meeting I […]

Pool, make me feel better

Not having the best time at work right now and apart from Jamie I don’t get a chance to talk to anybody other than customers with problems so it was good to get out and chat with my pool team. Just have a beer and get stuff off my chest was good even though we […]

Tuesday chill

With work being so annoying at the moment it really does affect my mood they need to tell me what is going on and then I can process it but to make everyone redundant and leave me not letting me know their plan is annoying and worrying I just need to get to the end […]
