Good Job

When I have a day like today at work it makes me feel good,where I just fix stuff make stuff work and just help people work better. That’s what I like doing it’s nice to get praised for doing your job, and it’s so rare nowadays. To bring me down to earth my mate Foz […]

911

Grandad turned 80 today, after celebrating with a party yesterday, now synonymous with terror and the twin towers 911 has always been my dad’s birthday and I am so grateful to have him to celebrate with after believing we’d lost him in 2018.

Football is back

With one eye on the game later our whole day was about going to celebrate Grandads 80th birthday at the Bulls Head at Smallwood. We told everyone that we had Covid but were now testing negative and that made us feel better. It was a lovely day with Nannie Liz’s family aswell as Uncle Karl […]

Hot day

The Indian summer continued today and so did my fatigue although I felt a little better than I had for a while I was desperate to get in to my shed and use the pocket hole jig that finally arrived from Amazon. Unfortunately by 2:30 in the afternoon all I wanted to do was sleep […]

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.

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 […]
