Website about a guy with VCFS

2011-06-08T10:43:00.002+01:00

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 Evie 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

2011-06-08T09:50:00.001+01:00

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

2011-06-07T23:39:00.003+01:00

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!

Been neglecting this blog

2010-10-27T17:06:00.003+01:00

Yup - been reglecting this blog, caught up in the world of Twitter and Facebook. Really must load up some photos, its looking a bit forlorn here. Anyway, belated welcome to 2010 (gosh its nearly over). Gonna be here more often, honest!

Build-a-bear

2009-05-25T23:58:00.003+01:00

Today we`ve been to the Build-a-bear shop in Liverpool one so Phil could buy some bears for the twins birthday. Evie got a nice bunny one with lovely long ears (called it Miley) and got a pinkish bear with hears 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

2009-05-14T22:09:00.004+01:00

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 aboon 1997

Sprained ankle

2009-04-23T16:22:00.004+01:00

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

2009-04-20T00:45:00.003+01:00

It was a terrible weekend. Tony took the kids for the first time and without asking, to stay with some women in Wales. 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.

Happy Easter Monday

2009-04-13T11:49:00.003+01:00

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

Back to my house tomorrow

2009-04-09T16:19:00.003+01:00

Cant believe I`m back to my own house tomorrow after 9 months!!!!!!!
HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phil`s 18th birthday

Phil and the cake

Phil and Eugene (the lemon man)

I cant believe it is was Phil`s 18th yesterday. Where does the time go?
We had some relatives round in the day time and did the present opening ritual. the in the night time we went to a local Italian Resaurant, which was lovely. The staff were very friendly and they even played happy birthday and brought him a lemony thing with a candle in it and a face (named Eugene by Phil - he even came home with us). Then when we got home we opened a bottle of champers and brough in the cake. Havent cut the cake yet as we will use it on Saturday if he has a party.

Julies 40th

2009-03-09T12:20:00.003Z

I went to an old friends 40th birthday at the weekend - the sister of my close friend who died over 10 years ago when we were both 40. It was nice to see some old faces and have a dance and - well - just get out! Was exhausted when I got in though. its so tiring having to get the kids ready as well as yourself and then keep an eye on them all night. Especially with Evie having a broken arm at the moment. But worth the effort. Should I really be this tired all of the time?

Let down by Ebay again

2009-03-02T11:36:00.003Z

I cant believe it! I`ve been let down by yet another Ebay Buyer. I`m trying to sell a camcorder and this is the second time someone has won the item and then disappeared from Ebay (no longer registered) WHY? Whats the point of bidding and then leaving ebay. I`m so annoyed cos it means I`m going to have to relist it again!
ANYONE WANT TO BUY A CAMCORDER?
