WHAT a start to the day….ok, well, actually it probably really began yesterday and from before, too.  So, you ask, what on EARTH happened to you and your family?

Today is yet another day we remember the loss of our babies. 

I know one of my friends asked me to write something about this a few years ago but I just didn’t feel it was the right time to do so. 

i wanted to talk to you about perseverance and stubbornness because i think their use can be good or bad. 

When Maisie was young I knew I needed to take her to get groomed.  I went to a groomer in a pet shop and the lady said to me that they needed Maisie to have tranquillisers before she came because she moved too much.

I have been thinking about injustice and how it can make people both feel and react.  Thing is, there can be PERCEIVED injustice or injustice that actually really has happened.

I am sure I have been in quite a few situations where I haven’t got a plan B, plan A was the one set in my mind and the fact that has all fallen to pieces is thrusting me into conjuring up a plan B quickly. 

Do you ever feel like you’ve come to the end of yourself and you just want to give up but you know you can’t?  I guess I have been there FAR too many times.

When you have expectations not only the ones you put on yourself, or the ones you believe others have on you. 

Do you ever have a song in mind, that you just can’t get to STOP?  I have one on my mind for the last few days.  And that’s not anything that happens to you. 

I have just been reading a book that has been one in which I can really identify with the main female character. Truthfully, I am unsure exactly what to think or feel about it

I don’t know if you have realised (probably because I haven’t made it clear before I don’t think) we have three animals - my little dog Maisie and the two ginger cats, Melody and Tara.

I am not going to lie to you. I try to be as honest as is possible with the words I use to try and communicate the message I have for you.

I am sure you must have been wondering where I am and why I haven’t written for so long. Well I had a fall that has landed me in hospital and I’m still here.

Can I be honest here?  I have had relationships with friends where I have or haven’t done something, the move to Scotland and other factors.

I have had a sneaky suspicion that Johnathan had completed another growth spurt so got him to give me a hug and we measured and now he is as tall as me. 

My very first thought was to write about holidays but I decided to talk about rest instead because each advert on either a series or program is about summer holidays.

I want to talk to you about being proud of your own achievements.  Now this may sound a little unlikely or untimely but I was thinking about it and how happy it can make you.
