Best exam ever Pt2

Reagan left for school somewhat unprepared or so it seemed, still revising History while struggling to eat any breakfast, watched by her friend who had to  wait while she gathered her things before they both left. French and History exams awaited them both and although the first one was important to do well in I […]

Pool win

Good win tonight against a tricky side Albert’s Corner with some good pool played by all. On a personal level although not perfect I have played quite well the last few weeks winning 5 of 6 frames I’ve played a real upturn in performance since changing the way I play. My concentration level is better […]

Best exam ever

For some reason Physics has finally clicked with Reagan and last night she was buzzing that the revision was flowing and she just seemed to get what they’d taught her finally. So it was fingers crossed today that she carried that confidence through into the exam it self! When she arrived home she gushed with […]

Monday blues

We calculated our debt this morning, when I say we I mean Jamie who for the past 14 months has been able to finally manage our debt without drowning in interest since we transferred 6 grand of high interest debt to an interest free credit card. Basically putting it to one side while we pay […]

Drowsy

Nannie’s 82

Reminding Lincoln and Reagan that she was 82 on Friday they both decided to go and see Nannie and wish her a happy birthday.  Having already arranged to go see his girlfriend today he skated up there yesterday and surprised her which she loved and Reagan texted her this morning arranging to go making sure […]

Helplessly dependant

Talking to me dad tonight unpacked how dependant he had allowed himself to become on Liz and how helpless he is when she is not there. He said how pleased he was with himself changing his own Stoma bag again even though he has been capable of doing it for years! He doesn’t know how […]

Working away

I took Jamie to the train station first thing this morning she is working in London Cardiff and Bristol over the next few days and I was working too although at home. Being Wednesday I was playing pool tonight and had to make sure Reagan and Lincoln were fed before I left which I did […]

Shear Heart Attack

Got some worrying news late last night that Nannie Liz had been taken to hospital in an ambulance with chest pains, after returning from an engine rally. Obviously our main concern was if she was going to be ok so first thing this morning I called me dad to ask the question, his reply stunned […]
