Whoops !!!

Not blogged for ages sorry but its just one of those things i don't have a very interesting life lol either that or by the time i get on the PC at night i am too tired to bother lol.

Anyway not much has been happening in Lawrence world this last week apart from me trying to hide away from my Birthday which is coming up on Friday. I share my birthday with my step daughter and she will be 16 can't quite believe it and I will be 40.
Wanted to hide away from this birthday but have now decided to stand up and shout out about it. We are not having a party but will have a kind of buffet tea where friends and family can drop in and see us ( hubby is working ) and will go out for a meal on Saturday.

Neesa has no idea what she would like for her birthday and to be honest neither do I so we will have to have a real good think about it.

Anyway got to go as Rebekah is at a party and needs collecting soon

Bye

weekend news

Not a lot to tell really but had a nice day today ( Saturday ) only me hubby and Rebekah here this weekend as the kids are at their mums so it seems really quiet lol plus i am only fighting 2 other people for the computer and not 4 ha ha ha. By the way here is the pic of her in her new glasses as promised not a brill one but will do for now.

My sis came round today and we had a laugh watching the craft channels looking for inspiration ( still waiting I am afraid ) then we headed off to Ozzie Mills for a look around Topaz to see what was hot lol didn't really pick up much its been a long time since payday in December and seems a long way off end of January.

Been trying to sort out what to do for my Birthday ( 2nd Feb ) when i will be 40 oh god there you go i have said it i am dreading it turning 30 never bothered me but 40 arghhhhhhh. Me thinks just a quiet family night in on actual Birthday but then out for a meal the Saturday if i have to celebrate then might as well go all weekend lol.

Watched the football down at my sisters tonight yes sorry all you girls who think football yuk i really do enjoy the game so much in fact me and the girls have season tickets for Blackburn Rovers any way we won yeah 3 - 0

Off to sort out some stuff for church tomorrow as my darling little girl has volunteered me to help out with the children's liturgy ( kids !!! )

Been on a course

Not been at work today but been on a course it was quite good actually and called time to communicate and the key note speaker was brilliant she does a lot of work with puppets and she was so passionate about what she did that it really did inspire you.

Later been up to cubs where we had our own little fund raiser ( scouts is 100 years old this year so January is taken up with challenges based on the number 100 ) we saw how many lines of 100 1 pence pieces we could do and we managed 30 so £30 raised for a local charity. We have asked the Cubs to think of a charity and if we get more than one we will choose out of a hat next week.

Well its been a couple of days

Hi I think Thursday was the last time i managed to get online so I have a bit of catching up to do wont bore you with all the mundane stuff but here goes

Friday

Rebekah got her glasses they are little miss naughty ones ( she chose them lol ) and once i have managed to get some picture i will add a photograph.
A quick turn round at home as we went off on scout camp with a friend of ours ( It always seems like a good idea when you are asked like 6 months earlier can you go on camp !!! )
Arrived on camp we were indoors and it was a really nice place its actually a guide site and we were staying in a cottage that slept 15


Saturday

The scouts got on with there activities and in the afternoon me and my step daughter crept away for a couple of hours to go and watch the football ( they didn't win )

Sunday

Home from camp Sunday afternoon very tired as it had been very late nights and very early mornings but it was enjoyable although being in the kitchen all the time it did feel a bit like working in a children's home and catering all weekend for 15 of them added to this lol

Today Monday

Work as normal but the main thing was that Rebekah had had a good day at school and seemed far happier than she has done is ages ( don't get me wrong we have a long way to go with her yet but its a start and I feel happier seeing her happy)

Well bore over speak soon
