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?

Absolutely no idea why I became all other men and left shopping to the week before Christmas but got it sorted and sat back thinking a trip to Argos Winsford sorts my Santa duties, oh no! Panic set in when  one of my gifts moved to ‘available 27th’ and I knew I could have got […]

Done for Christmas

Not the ending to my work year but hey ho ho ho today was all about getting ready and partying a bit but hey, best laid plans After getting up a bit later than usual it was great to think we were all done for Christmas and were able to whatever we want to do […]

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 […]

Alone and adrift?

Crying won’t change anything, will worrying make it worse probably so I am going to do neither but that said today I cried when everyone except me were told they do not have a job Merry Christmas and I was left worrying what the hell I am supposed to do now… I am left working […]

What a day

To watch my teenage children still loving church and taking part in the nativity says so much of how Jamie is still guiding both brilliantly. Lincoln was superb as a puppeteer and got some great laughs it was great to hear him and see him performing! Reagan and her friends danced and sang beautifully and […]

Chester Markets

We set off to Chester early to watch Lincoln’s drama group perform at the Freedom Church and once we dropped him and Cody off me and Reagan went for some breakfast and wait for Mommy to arrive. She had been in London for her Christmas party so was travelling direct and when she arrived she […]
