Just wanted to do a little update to let you know my Grandpa died this morning :( Am really gutted that I didn't make it in time to say goodbye to him. Have felt numb all day, but spoke to my Dad this evening (who has gone up North with his sister) and talked to him about funeral stuff a bit, which got me crying. God knows how I'm going to cope ( Read more... )

I only seem to update this when I have bad news or something, which I guess I need to address at some point. Anyway, today has been really crap. My Grandpa has been in hospital for the past week or so having tests, and today we found out he has liver cancer. The worst part about it is that they can't treat it, so we're going to lose him :( I don't ( Read more... )

 I don't tend to post much on here anymore, as to be honest I just end up running out of time to write anything half decent. I do still read everyone's blogs though, and it's nice to keep up-to-date with you ( Read more... )

I can't believe we're now in 2011 - I don't know where the last year has gone (or the past decade!) I thought I'd just summarise firstly the past decade, and then go into more detail about the past year.

The last 10 years

To be honest, it's not been the greatest decade, and I'm hoping that the next one will be a hell of a lot better! However, I have ( Read more... )

I thought I'd do an update about 2010 - I'll do a longer one in a minute, but thought I'd start off with this, which I stole from Viks :)

1. What did you do in 2010 that you'd never done before?
Went on an OU Residential Week, went to stay with Nicola, had Nicola to stay, was Mary in the Church Nativity

2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and ( Read more... )

I haven't updated in ages, so apologies for that! I do keep up-to-date with you all though by reading your journals, so I haven't forgotten you ( Read more... )

Since I got this cold bug in January I've been feeling pretty awful and am starting to worry if this is a bit of a relapse. I'm so tired all the time, find it really difficult to wake up in the morning, have a sore throat and glands and my legs especially are in so much pain. It's just getting me down a bit at the moment as I'm finding it difficult ( Read more... )

I haven't posted on here in so long - I keep meaning to but either run out of time/energy or just don't know what to say. Things that have happened since I last updated (I think - can't actually remember when I last updated!)

Started my new job - am working as a Learning Support Assistant 3 days a week at the local Secondary School. It's hard work ( Read more... )

Just thought I'd do a little update about my summer so far. For the first three weeks after the schools broke up I was working at Playscheme (various hours and not every day). It was very tiring, but fairly good fun and got some money in. At the end of July I went to Daisy's meet-up in Basingstoke, which was lovely :D Got to meet some fab AYMErs ( Read more... )

Thought I should do a quick update, as it's been a while ( Read more... )
