Everything at the moment feels hard and nothing seems to be going my way and I feel so much pressure trying to make things right, this in turn makes things worse when things keep going g wrong. The “things” themselves would be miniscule to others but to me the are important and line them up […]
We went to watch a little production Reagan’s drama group put and have been rehearsing for weeks. I love amateur dramatics and I thought everyone of the kids were so brave to perform infront of an audience which is a far cry from just doing it front of each other each week! Reagan had already […]
It shouldn’t but it does, yet I’ve never been that bothered about having a lot of money so long as the bills are paid and I have enough for a drink too. Since giving up drinking for a year drink is not a concern, my shed is the replacement and I would love to think […]
I am going to the Lake District on Saturday for the Phoenix 5 25th Anniversary Walk we are going for two days as we did for the 20th anniversary and I have volunteered to drive because I am not drinking at all obviously so it makes sense? The thing is I have had the idea […]

My day was governed by a trip to Stoke to get Jamie’s car windscreen fixed only to find when I’d driven all the way there that I was a week early ffs! Drove home and rebooked it for Thursday next week and this meant I could go with Lincoln to gymnastics and visit Grandad as […]
I want to get to a stage where I can chip away at building my shed but each stage I have got to since erecting the walls requires something else doing before I can move on. Today, I got all the roof joists I made yesterday fitted but was short of a couple so intend […]
