    Lol,
    No, not really Linda (thanks for asking)

    Just a wee bit of drama, lol

    Nothing wrong with a bit of drama!

    I got into work this morning to find out that one of the finance managers had died suddenly over the weekend! :(

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

  • Ah Beanie, bless...

    Leaking pipes in bathroom have lead to ceiling damage. DH had to cut large holes to mend pipes.

    It's ok though-he's sorted it. ~Very capable man my husband.


    Linda-that's sad x

    We had a lovely weekend, it was my lovely hubby's birthday so we went out for Sunday dinner.
    I had a rather large glass of my favourite red wine and a steak!

    Don't know yet, there was just an email alert from our Communications team informing us all that he'd died unexpectedly and suddenly over the weekend!
