Stay positive

Reading back the last few posts I am very negative and I think it’s because this chest infection is getting me down a bit, and my lack of patience at work this morning was down to the same thing. To be asked to fix something that I do not have the administrative rights to fix […]

It’s oh so quiet

It seems weekends are not good for my health just lately, last Sunday I felt poorly and today I again felt bad suffering from this nagging cold that just will not do one. I spent the morning in my shed making a new box to cover the gas meter and got cold I don’t think […]

Is -5 too cold

The snow was disappearing late afternoon yesterday but when the sun disappeared and it started getting cold it just turned to ice. This morning it was -5 when we got up but by the time Billy and I went for a walk the sun had come out it was still cold but Billy does not […]

Snowww excited

Reagan and Lincoln got home from school and asked if they could go outside and play in the snow, which I immediately agreed to, because for them to want to go outside is rare especially when not being made to. Although I was still working I watched them for a while, playing in the street […]

Never seen him happier

The post below was in my drafts from 2016 (for some reason I didn’t finish or publish it?) It just made me smile and think he has grown up so much since then yet only now is he again thinking about his own style and wanting to look like his favourite YouTuber (who’s name escapes […]

It’s your Birthday ffs!

Jamie turned 42 years old today and no-one deserves to feel special more than the woman we call Mommy! She works so hard at everything she does and very rarely has any down time so tonight we went to the Cheshire Grill at Lach Denis on me whatever you want which is always a risk […]

Diplomacy

When I go to work I am there to do my job but sometimes you come across people who forget why they rang in the first place, and proceed to tell me that they’ve already tried what I am asking them to and it didn’t work. They then stop listening becoming fixated on something they […]

Man down

Not sure what happened this afternoon but in the supermarket I just had nothing left no energy light headed I just felt spent? I have a propensity for missing breakfast sometimes if I drink a cup of coffee before I eat, it makes me feel OK and fills me so I don’t feel like I […]

…not just for Christmas!

He never asked to become part of our family, he was just a happy newborn with his brothers and sisters hanging out with his Mom and Dad. When we chose him and brought him here to live with us we committed to making the rest of his life the best it could be and in […]
