Made me smile

This morning I and laughed and smiled at something I noticed my young son does, he loves to draw and write. Pretty normal you think? Yes .... but he does it everywhere.

The other day we were travelling in the car, so he went in my bag and got some paper out. It wasn't until later I found out he had my diary. !! OH NO ...but no this was O.k. On some of the pages he drew me little pictures in the spaces allocated to the days (ah) some people may think how annoying will stop me from using that space. But no not me I will work around it, because every time I look at the page for that week I will smile and remember him and how sweet it is... Then I noticed in December (not quite the Christmas week) He has written he a little story about him self and our family..

Sweet or Annoying? I know which .... because this is one of the most stressful weeks near Christmas, I know when I look in my Diary I can see this and SMILE ......

Holiday

My first ever abroad holiday. Yes I've gotten to the grand old age of 53 before I've planted my feet on foreign soil.  My flight was to Portugal, and my partner of 3 years was coming too. Unfortunately he's had a crisis and called off. That's fine I'm going anyway...  First flight omg brilliant, loved it.  And here I am , but it's raining. Will I let it spoil my experience? No chance in h***! Food, drink and cats today. What will tomorrow lead to. Let's wait and see. 

Home, a patchwork of things..

Patchwork In the last 11 years, I have moved house numerous times. 5 to be precise! I did love the whole thought of moving house, but now I am fed up with it. I helped my sister move 3 times and my mother move once, so in total that is 9 times (only in my eyes). My favourite place to live was the one and the only house in the last 11 years for me, it was a beautiful house on a busy street, but it was just down the road for my son's school (very handy). We had a cellar and a gorgeous long garden, all full of mature shrubs. (as well as the normal 3 bedrooms, kitchen etc). The one lovely thing I treated myself to and brought with me when I moved was a patchwork stained glass window for the front door.  Now my door was a mid to dark green and had small viewing panel in it, this was just plain and fairly quite boring so I replaced it with this beauty...  This was custom made and came all the way from America.

Step over the edge

I want to share with you all, my brave, but VERY scary deed I did...  What? You ask... well I jumped off a bridge...  Why? You may well ask.. for charity!  I HATE HEIGHTS... yes so why did I do it? Because it's good to step off the edge of your comfort zone, now and again... I was nervous but exhilarated, until I got to the top of that wall...  Then OMG... seriously I couldn't do it, I was all strapped up, attached to all the safety equipment... But no, I couldn't bring myself to (as they said) "just lean forward and drop over the edge"  What did I do, you ask, well I told them I couldn't do it, they unhooked me and trembling I climbed back down and cried, shook and trembled.  The people I was with checked I was ok, I told them to carry on...  Eventually I gathered my guts back off the ground, tucked them back into my pants. (With the help of some very lovely people) plucked my courage up and climbed back up...  I climbed up...
