The twins 11th Birthday




Website about a guy with VCFS

If you get a chance, take a look at this website about a guy with VCFS or DiGeorge Syndrome as its also called. My daughter Dolly has this syndrome and it impacts heavily onto her everyday life. Apprarently, although few people have heard of VCFS it is the 2nd most common syndrome after Downes Sydrome. Maxappeal is the UK support group for children with DiGeorge syndrome, called after its founder who lost her young son Max, as a baby, to complications related to this syndrome

Painting by Ronnie Kray

Just came across this painting by Ronnie Kray on EBAY for £2,500 - Don`t profess to be an expert, but it looks a bit rubbish to me!

Emmerdale

Any one see Emmerdale tonight. It was the saddest thing I've seen in a long time.
Can't relate to the situation exactly, but I don't think I could end someones life for them, however well meaning. Thought the acting was amazing from all three main characters! The tears were tripping me! Well done Emmerdale cast and writers for the best bit of tv I've seen for a long time. The aftermath of this situation isn't going to be pretty. Let's hope Hazel and Aaron don't go to jail now!

Build-a-bear

Today we`ve been to the Build-a-bear shop in Liverpool one so that teenage son could buy some bears for the twins birthday. Dolly got a nice bunny one with lovely long ears (called it Miley) and Molly got a pinkish bear with hearts on it (called it Cherry). Haven`t got outfits yet for these bears (so expensive) and these are the third bears they`ve got. They also got a brown one each for their birthdays off a friend - although we know someone who can make outfits a bit cheaper. What a good money spinner this build-a -bear thing is. Wish I`d thought of it!
Had a nice day wandering round Liverpool One then we all came home for tea and had nice chicken casserole and cake - plus a big glass of chardonnay.
Tomorrow - out for a meal probably and maybe a visit to the hairdressers. Badly needed!

EFT course

Ankle all better now! Back on my feet. Now I`m back to all my courses - Aromatherapy Monday, Reiki Friday and now EFT Thursday (thats emotional freedom course if you dont know). Anyway, the EFT course is good. The tutor is called Ian and he seems knowledgeable about all things metaphyscial/ we started tapping today. Tap tap tap on all the acupressure points.
Started looking up on the net about EFT and Emo Trance, which were also supposed to be looking at. Theres quite a lot about it, considering its only been around since about 1997

Sprained ankle

The girls are home now and I feel a bit better about things - not much but a little.
I`m still getting over a sprained ankle. I fell down the stairs in the HMV shop last Thursday (a week today) and I badly sprained my ankle. I could hardly stand up and hobbled round all day and as it didnt feel much better I ended up going to casualty with mum to get it checked out. At least it wasnt broken but it was swollen to twice its size. Painful! The swellings starting to go down now but its still sore and bruised and hurts me when I walk. Honestly - I could do without it at the moment.

Bad weekend

It was a terrible weekend. T took the kids for the first time in the 9 months since we split and without asking, to stay with some women in Wales. Cheeky bastard! I didnt sleep a wink all weekend, sick with worry and rage. He is one cheeky, horrible bastard. Given that he abused them when he lived at home, its all a terrible worry.
So relieved that they`re home now, but cant get rid of this stressed feeling. Am still hurt and upset.
How dare he take my babies to stay with some trollop from the Internet. Cant believe how horrible he turned out to be. After 11 years you'd think you would know someone. Obviously not........

Happy Easter Monday

Good morning on this rather dull easter monday. Its cold and cloudy and miserable but hope it brightens up later. what am I doing today? Dont know yet, but dont suppose it will be very exciting.
I`m trying to avoid the chocolate today anyway - I had quite enough of that yesterday.
Anyway - HAPPY EASTER
