Come clean

Grandads 80th birthday party has been on my mindall week with the knowledge that I have almost certainly been suffering with COVID since last Thursday and that we will be in his company (obviously) and maybe more importantly, Auntie Karen’s on Sunday. We know there are no rules anymore about isolating etc but they are […]

COVID symptoms

This shit is so weird, the symptoms are different from person to person my symptoms this time and the first time are headaches and fatigue. It is so difficult to get through the day without feeling absolutely drained without taking max strength flu tablets and drinking Lucazade which really seems to help but I need […]

Routine

Reagan went back to school today and was really looking forward to it, I think children need a summer break to recharge, but I also think they thrive when there is a routine. Mommy taught us all that just after Reagan was born when she started routines, I was sceptical but soon realised Mom knows […]

Big School for Linco

A lot happened today, the biggest event was Lincoln’s first day at ‘Big School’ which I know he’s been looking forward to and if he had nerves he hid them very well. I woke at 07:15 and had not heard him but we needn’t have worried. Mommy found him downstairs eating his breakfast already dressed […]

Bin dippin’

Bless my daughter I love her to bits but her idea of tidying is to remove everything she does not want or is not hers so that where she is tidying looks tidy with just her stuff that she is interested in at that moment, nothing else or antone else matters. This can be frustrating […]

Wasted!

Having been proper ill Thursday and Friday I was determined not to waste the weekend feeling sorry for myself, which was a possibility if I did not change my mindset and become positive. When I was left alone on Friday afternoon I had one thought look after myself and see if I feel good enough […]

The Winmau Blade 6

Having a dartboard that is ready to throw within my own space is a dream come true for me because I love playing darts, and it feels so relaxed just forgetting everything and throwing. The Blade 6 is the first ‘Blade’ type board I have owned or played on for any length of time. The […]

Lost

It is lonely sat here on my own as my whole family (including Billy) have gone to Wales Glamping although Jamie and I both agree it’s still camping! As much as I dislike camping I dislike the feeling I have right now more of having no purpose, even when Mommy took Reagan and Lincoln to […]

Survival mode

I woke up feeling under the weather but brushed it off as hay-fever or possibly a bit of a cold so went to work as normal. I was driving to Congleton and it was like I was struggling to keep the car on the road like I was drowsy and unable to concentrate? I got […]

The 18th November

I think the 18th of November is my date, its my sabbatical date I have been thinking about that date a lot lately, its a way off yet, but it’s on my mind already. I love my life, but I know I can take away one thing and I can love it still, as much […]
