Well we only got back from our trip to York on Saturday were we had a fantastic time we went to the railway museum, castle museum, York Minster, had coffee in the shambles and a good walk around the town doing some shopping and ......................... oh yes managed to get a look in Lakeland as well and just bought a few bits and bobs ( it would of been rude not too lol )Today we have just got back from Manchester where we have joined in with the Chinese New Year Celebrations it was fantastic so many people and so many stalls and shops to go in.It really is a great experience.
Back to work tomorrow as we have had half term this last week so back to normality in this house ( what ever that may be )
Hi just a quick hello and a chance to see if i can add pics to this blog. I actually made a card well a couple really but forgot to take photos last night so will have to wait till hubby opens his valentines and anniversary card then i will take a photo.But I have remembered to take a photo of a swap I am taking part in on one of the forums I visit and the theme is Black and White ( but a touch of red looks good too )Do you think this will be ok ? I am so out of practice at making cards lol

Goodness me where do I start ? Well finished for half term thank goodness but before that had a meeting in school about Rebekah ( some of you may have been aware of the problems she was having at school ) this was an update about how she is going on. Some good news is that she is now being seeked out on the playground to play with others rather than standing on her own. She still can go down to a very nice teacher if she feels she doesn't want to go out at break time and they have a little chat which is nice for her, but in class she still feels under pressure to please her teacher and she is struggling to come to terms with this.Next part of the saga Step children meant to be off to London with mum and step dad this week Step daughter decides its not what she wants to do as she has asked her mum if there will be time to do some course work as she is on gcse's and the answer was well we will try but cant promise so she has decided to stop here and get on with her work. God bless her she is working really hard.Oh and to top it off apparently my hubby's ex has refused to pay any maintenance ( but that's another story )Speak soonLinda x
Talk about a hectic weekend where do i begin well Friday was my 40th Birthday and my darling hubby was working so I invited a few friends round for drop in and a few nibbles. Saturday I had been told that we were going out for a meal but not were i was going.The next thing I know I am at the local Cricket Club where a fantastic surprise party had been organised for me by my hubby sis and friend Andrew. I had no idea at all and walked into a darkened room where all of a sudden lights came on and the room was full of all my friends. I still cant believe it to be honest as I know the most talkative people in the world and they all managed to keep it a surprise for me.So overall a really really brilliant weekend and absolutely blown away by peoples kindness.
Yes folks its finally caught up with me and tomorrow my life begins apparently ( well that's what everyone keeps saying apart from my darling Rebekah who keeps telling everyone that mummy is only 21 ) she is a good girl Well whats been happening well loads really regarding the step kids and there mum but to personal to put on here but i just want to hug them and let them know I love them and and will always be there for them even though they are confused angry and sad at the moment.The weekend should be good we are having a drop in night tomorrow with a few friends calling round and then on Saturday off to Bolton shopping early doors then off to Football to watch Blackburn V Sheffield Utd then off out for a meal and I don't know where it is either so that will be a nice surprise Cards are piling up nicely ready to be opened tomorrow so i will say bye for now Linda aged 39yrs 364 days and counting lol
