Aww that sounds a really awesome idea!
I'm always very drawn to those like daily scrapbooks.. the ones where you do the mini little cards.. I know it would only last a few weeks though lol.
I'm going to rattle off a long list of random stuff I'm thinking bare with me.... Mr man is back from Japan! and that rhymed ... and he's coming over for pancakes tomorrow, which means he is meeting my mum and sister! They haven't met anyone I dated in about 6 years.... and I've been in a relationship for 3 years of that and they never ever met him! so this is a bit EEK! And right now my room is a tip I should be tidying.... but.... I just got an email saying my profile had been seen on a recruitment site and they had a job I might be interested in. It's not something I'd usually go for, usually I look customer services or admin, but this one goes with my degree and sounds really hard but really good at the same time... So instead of tidying or writing a covering letter I'm feeling like my brain is going to explode! And that is why I have a blog... lol.
In other news... Fatface sale started today online, we've found two things for birthday presents, all birthdays sorted until my birthdayand have quite a few bits and bobs for lil sis birthday in Sept she's 18 this year so we need 18 pressies.
xI hope you know your capable, & brave, & significant.
even when it feels like your not....0 -
Well just popping in to report DH was admitted to hospital this morning
bless him he did say he was ill
It seem he really was. It being Sunday and the services running on a skeleton staff I'm just back from settling him on the ward. He is comfortable and high as a kite on a concoction on pain relief meds. Hope to know more in the morning xxx
Oh NANAMIA you must be worried sick, sending lots and lots of love to you both, hope they can help him recover quickly xxFeistyFidget wrote: »Oh Nana, sending great big hugs to you and DH xxx
Hi lovelies, I'm sorry I've been awol - DH was admitted to hospital with a suspected heart attack early hours of the weekend before last and although he is now home we've had to start the exhausting task of seeing if we are entitled to any benefits now that work is clearly out of the question.
I will try to pop in more regularly xxx
Oh FEISTY sending you both lots of love, that must have been very scary for you both, hope he is recovering well, you must be entitled to something surely, we have missed you xxI have had a quick flick through a couple of pages, just wanted to say :hello: and then I'm going to go back through and read properly!! People always laugh at me for starting Christmas organising end August/beginning September, I now feel I'm behind:eek:
Didn't manage to find many Christmas cards/wrapping paper in the sales this year like I did beginning of 2013
Going to start a Christmas gathering box and now read back over the past posts

There are many things you can do to reduce your anxiety to a more manageable level. Taking action may make you feel more anxious at first. Even thinking about anxiety can make it worse. Therefore, a common - and natural - response to anxiety is to avoid what triggers your fear. For example, if you are afraid of spiders, running away everytime you see one, is likely to increase your fear. Avoiding an exam because you feel anxious is likely to make you feel worse. Therefore facing up to anxiety, and how it makes you feel, can be the first step in breaking the cycle of fear and insecurity

I am sorry to hear that about JJ. I hope that they can be brought under control enough for her to be brought round soon.
Seems to be a lot of ill health around at the moment, both big things and bugs and if things happen in 3s then we have ours already in Feisty, Nana and JJ0 -
