Mood: Feels like sharing.
I feel i am always pretty open and honest in the blogs i write, i tell it as it is, i call a spade a spade,
u see all sides to me, the happy and the sad, the fun and the boring lol, the sane times and of course the insane times, u even see and hear some of the naughty side of me,
i have a load of wonderful people who always comment on my blog, and i love hearing from each and everyone of u, i always enjoy seeing what u have to say,
i was thinking last night how sometimes when i read someones blog, it throws up things in my mind, either questions or maybe something id like to say but feel that maybe the blog im reading isnt the place for that,
so with that in mind i thought id post this blog and its all about u guys, its about u being able to ask me anything u like, or if u just have something u want to tell me or say, anything really well now is ur chance, this is the whole purpose to this blog,
im sure u must all have something u would like to ask, or maybe a few words of wisdom, anything at all, there r no off limit subjects on this blog, as the writer i feel i share and im forth coming about my life, but maybe im not that clear, maybe there r things i talk about and ur not sure what i mean.
well i really hope u all see this as a good chance to ask or say what ever u feel, and it doesnt all have to be nice or sweet stuff, if u dont believe in things i do then say, im not asking for a huge bunch of abuse, but im opening this up so u can ask as much or as little as u want, feel free to speak ur mind and say what u feel.
i really look forward to seeing what u guys have to say.
will check back in later after work, have a good morning all, see u later
big hugs

I wanted to share this with u all, no real reason apart from the fact i baked some yummy treats this morning
ok so let me explain, when i was 15 my nanna died  and i had the job of helping my parents clear her little flat, mum had told all 3 of us children if there was a couple of little things we wanted to keep then if we cleared it with mum we could have what ever we wanted.
so when we got clearing out i found a pretty little brooch, it was of no value at all but i wanted it just because she wore it on her coat every day, i remembered her wearing it,
the second thing i decided i wanted to keep was a set of scales, yep thats right a set of kitchen weighing scales, i was only 15 yrs old but i knew it was something i wanted to take into my own home when the time came 
knowing my nanna had used them as a teenager and as she was growing up and when he was bringing my mum up i just needed and wanted something that one day i may even be able to pass on to my children
so here u go i have taken a picture of the scales in question
now as u can see they r very old and beat up looking but they r a fantastic set of scales and i use them for all the baking and cooking i do friends have asked why i wont buy a new set, and as i say i love the ones i have even if they r a bit old school lol  and of course because they have special meaning to me.
so do any of u have anything similar, something that has been passed down through ur family, do share with me i would really love to know.
big hugs to u all xoxoxoxoxox

As always i enjoy my weekends a great deal, even though they do go so quick, i enjoy doing things that i want to do
this weekend has been a bit of a mix, and like the title says sometimes doing things slightly different is good lol
i popped out and did a few bits of shopping on saturday and collected my watch that i had taken in to be fixed, and of course i went and spent the afternoon with my parents, my sister was there with her girls and obviously i had my daughter with me,
i love it when we all get together, its just so relaxed, we talk about all sorts of things, talk about old times, funny times, people past and present, u would be surprised at the topics we cover in such a short space of time lol
saturday night was the different bit, i dont normally drink wine.... at all i just dont like it, but when i was doing my shopping i saw some which was on offer and for some reason i just really fancied it so i brought it, 
anyway i ended up drinking the whole bottle  pmsl it wasnt that bad actually but the really funny bit was i felt totally shit faced lol im such a light weight!!!
one good thing was i ended up sleeping really well that night lol
today has been another lovely day, i managed to get loads of stuff done in the garden, its starting to come round now my daughter and other half went off out for a couple of hours to a local air museum, more their thing than mine, so while they were gone i made a few birthday cards,
then to round off the perfect sunday i cooked a wonderful roast pork evening meal  and then because my daughter has broke her wrist and we cant get on with r bike ride training for r sponsored event we went out walking for an hour,
it really has been a wonderful weekend all round and the cherry on top was the lovely hot bath and the hot chocolate i have just had
anyway thats my weekend, so what have u been doing with ur weekend??
hugs and cuddles to u all xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Hospital trip.

Well after a very sleepless night we were up, dressed and at the hospital (25 miles from home) by 20 to 9am  i still felt half asleep lol
anyway Dr came and saw us, informed us that she broken the end of either her Ulna or Radis bone, i cant remember which one he said now  (its her left wrist and its the inside bone if anyone is smart enough to know lol)
anyway he sid it was a clean break, which thankfully meant no operation was needed, also because of her age etc it should heal quite quickly,
so he said she would be in a cast for 4 weeks not 6, she will have an x ray in 4 weeks to make sure its healed if it hasnt she will have to keep it on a bit longer, but 4 weeks should be ok.
so we got her temp cast removed, then she had the proper full cast put on she also had a choice of colour too, she could have red, blue, white, pink, orange, yellow or purple she decided on purple, in her words she picked purple because it wouldnt clash with too many of her clothes pmsl thats so typicl of daughter thinking of fashion!!!
anyway here is a pic i took just before i took her back into school, she was pleased that the cast went with her uniform quite well.
big hugs to u all xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

can it really get any worse???

In a single word ...................
YES!!!!!!
with everything thats going on of late, i didnt think there was any way that things could get any worse,
but yep u guessed it today they did
i walk in from work this morning been in the door 10 seconds and the phone rings, its my daughters school
they said she had a fall while playing rounders an had hurt her wrist, could i collect her and get the Dr to look at it
so i race out to her school collect her go to the Dr to see if someone could see her, after sitting for over half hour we finally see the Dr,
anyway he looks, has a feel, pokes and moves it then says just to be on the safe side u better take her to A&E for an x-ray
so we do the 25 mile to the hospital we get to sit for another 1/2 hour then some one comes and takes a few details, then we get to wait yet again after nearly an hour we get taken to x-ray,
she goes in, comes out and we get told to do what?? have a guess........... yep u got it TO BLOODY WAIT YET AGAIN!!!!
1/2 hour or so later Dr comes to say he has the results of the x-ray, by this time its been a few hours since we arrive and i just want to go home, my tummy is rumbling coz the cereal i had at 6.30am is long gone (its probably nearly 3.30pm now)
anyway he shows us the x-ray and any idiot can see and quite clearly that she has broken her wrist 
so we have to wait for some one to come and put a temporary plaster on it so we can go home and then joy of joys we have to return tomorrow morning at 9.20am for them to put a proper plaster on.
so its a 50 mile round trip today and the same again tomorrow and god knows what will happen after then!!!!
so just when u think things cant possibly get worse.....................................................
THEY DO
i hope ur all ok and have a good day.
do tell, have u ever broken a bone?? if so how old were u and what bone was it??
big hugs xoxoxoxoxoxoxox

I love this picture so much, it always makes me laugh,
it kinda reminds me of my childhood when me, my brother and sister were little,
when we had done something wrong we all got stood in a line and on being asked who did it, well u can imagine what happened lol
we all ended up pointing to some one else saying it was him/her and not one of us would own up lol

What a truly awesome weekend i have had 
there has been craft fairs and coffee mornings and the best bit...........
go kart racing 
i have spent nearly the whole weekend with my parents, my sister her husband and 2 girls and of course my other half and daughter
we have had a fantastic weekend all round,
today has to be the best, in the small town that joins r village each year they have go kart racing
they have to be hand made go karts, they have to be push go karts, no engines allowed lol
there is several categories, little tiny young ones, then teenagers and of course adults,
its just such fun, they close the market hill off, straw bales line the course that the go karts have to follow (its all down hill) they get one good shove at the top and then its all down to luck
we have had a great day all being together, watching the go karts, catching up with old friends and people we have not seen for a while sitting against the straw bales, having r own picnic lunch
its weekends like this which mean the world too me and as for the weather its been perfect, nice and hot and sunny ALL weekend to the point me and my daughter got slightly burnt today (nothing too bad)
anyway i know i have loads of mails, blogs and comments to catch up with, i have not forgotten about them but for now they r just going to have to wait
so what has the weekend brought for u??
what have u been up too??
big hugs to u all xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
this was taken today.

Yesterday started real bad for me and it just got worse
i woke up feeling really ill and poorly, i felt dizzy, light headed, every time i moved my head i felt like i was either going to fall over, pass out or throw up 
anyway daughter went off to school i went and laid on the bed thinking a nap might help and i might feel better when i woke, and it was then that all hell broke loose!!!
phone rang, it was daughters school it seems the problem that i have with her is now getting worse
so after the phone call was over, it was a very long day of trawling the internet, talking to people on the phone and it ended up with a phone call to the local Drs to make an appointment.
i dont want to go into details at the moment, its not something i really feel like i want to share,well just not yet anyway but lets just say its a huge shock and i didnt ever think it would happen to me or my family, but it has and it is and it is and will be delt with and sorted out, it will be a long road, but one we will struggle on down until this is sorted out.
yesterday i just didnt know how i was going to cope, how i was going to sort this and deal with it, i sat down several times to write a woe its me blog but in the end i didnt bother 
im glad i didnt bother, because today is another day, a different day, a happy positive feeling day, a day where the sun is shining and a day where im feeling good about things, after a really good long talk with daughter last night and getting things in the open i do feel like everything will be ok.
after all the bad things i have in my life and now this on top of it, i could sit and feel sorry for myself (ok granted sometimes i do) but i really try not too, i really try to be positive, as hard as this is going to be i just have to believe and trust its going to be ok, because if i didnt well i think i would just give up on life right now.
do u have something in ur life right now that ur trying to deal with, thats taking all of ur strength to deal and cope with??
loving hugs to u all xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Going backwards.

I can feel myself slowly sliding backwards, sometimes im not even sure what it is u want from me any more, u made it quite clear that my friendship was all u were interested in but over time i feel that u change ur mind,
i struggled so hard to be tough and strong and to accept what decission it was u had made, u dont know and never will know how bad it hurt, how much it changed my life, if u did i dont think u would bend and shape the rules to as and when it suits u now,
i had to use my whole being to stop myself forever pushing, wanting something i knew i couldnt have, but knowing u cant have something doesnt stop ur body longing for what it once had,
my life is so hard at the moment, i have so many troubles, which quite often drag me under, and they do so quite freely, and u only ever seem to be there if it suits u.
friends means friends, it means being there for each other and sharing the hard times as well as the good times, im not sure for how much longer i can do this if im honest,
i only ever hear from u on weekdays and thats if it suits, any other time i hear from u is if it suits u, if ur horny and in the mood u have no issues in contacting me or putting forward just how u feel, but then if u choose for what ever reason that u dont wish to contact me u dont.
i dont think im strong enough to do this any more, i had built up so much strength i had it all under control, friends was fine, friends was what u wanted friends it was....... but then u change it, u turn things around, but when u get what u want it all goes back to how it was just like nothing has happened,
im not strong enough to cope with that now, its just false hope, its dangling a carrot then pulling it away when i reach for it, more than anything right now i need and want what we once had, but u made it clear i wont ever have that again, so maybe its time to call it a day for good.
maybe the friends bit wont work, maybe too much was shared to now just have friends, i cant open myself to this hurt any more, i already have more than my fair share of hurt, as each day goes by i slowly slip from ur thoughts and memories anyway maybe its for the best,
maybe the saying is right out of sight out of mind, maybe it is for the best, maybe its my queue to get up and slowly walk away into the dark bleak nothingness because u maybe able to cope with this, its obvious it has no effect on ur thoughts or feelings but it does mine and im too vunreable and just not strong enough to cope with it any more.
goodbye my friend
goodbye my lover

So sick of the rain!!!

A month or so back we had a hose pipe ban brought into place, due to the lack of rain, and how there is a huge water shortage and we need to do anything we can to conserve water,
well for the last 4/6 weeks since the hose pipe ban was introduced i think we have only had a couple of days where it hasnt rained to the point that round here has been flooded yet again,
so i thought i would show u some of the pictures i took of the area surrounding me and the village i live in, now this river is about 6 ft deep and its probably 5/6ft wide it normal has 1ft of water tops running through the bottom, well as u can see from the picture it has a lot more than that flowing throug it now
its been quite scary at times just how bad every where around us floods, so here u go....................
do u ever have large amounts of rain and or floods??
