The sun finally sets

The sun has finally set on my fathers family there is no one left, it saddens me greatly as my Uncle Joe, dads older brother and the last one died last thursday, his funeral is wednesday the 22nd April @ 12.30pm, for me it was like he was the last link to my father who died when he was 52 almost 26 years ago he was one of the four brothers to die first then it was William about nine years ago he was the second oldest then the oldest died four years ago that was Hugh and now Joseph funny how you always expect the oldest to go first but in our case it was the youngest it just goes to show we are not going to live forever as we think we are when we are children so thats it now all the family is gone,

Good friday

On Wednesday we went to Underwater in Liverpool its an activity center for children ages 3 to 11, the kids loved it we took Joshua with us too hubby went with Stuart and the boys Lewis and Joshua and i went with Ashley and Lucas like i said the kids loved it after we had been there for a good two hours (we had to leave then because of the car parking place) we took them to Macdonalds, now i dont usually like Maccy D's the food is neither here nor there but the kids chose to go there so off we went, we finally got home around 4pm so we had been out practically all day,

I am still depressed been this way since tuesday its hard for me to get out of bed but i am trying very hard to pick myself up but its quite difficult just hope this depression doesnt last too long...

Sunday 29th march

Me and Lucas not sure why i cant seem to look nice :(

Taken today it has the wrong date on it not sure why

Ashley and Stuarts family taken last night,


Today we have been so busy getting the kitchen emptied for when the fitter comes to fit the new one which by the way we are not sure when hes coming, hopefully it will be soon we cleaned everything then hubby went around to Ashley's to mow her lawn while Stuart was cleaning out their garage i carried on cleaning the rest of the kitchen then following on into the living room and stairs when DH came back he finished doing the upstairs while i did the bathroom, well i am so stiff now its untrue,



We got a phone call off Ashley did we want to go around for dinner of course i said yes Lol so we showered then got ready to go round, she did a great meal really enjoyed it and of course i took some pics,



Now the one i am going to to show you first is the one they had taken last night as they went to a wedding they had a great time and came away with a great pic,



I have been poorly for over a week but i am finally getting back to being well again i had the horrible flu and it certainly had me over a barrel this time its left me with aching joints which isn't good if you want to get things done :D

Sore throat

Lucas is now nearly ten weeks old time has gone nowhere.

This is when Lucas's daddy came home from work

The boys just love each other so much,

I have a sore throat today it started last night UGH i must of caught it off my mother :( it really is sore AND i must be getting a cold, now i am so soft when it comes to being ill like this i moan like a baby i just hate colds and sore throats,

My own Mother is coming for dinner, she hasnt been well for the last two weeks shes had a virus thats next door to pneumonia i have been rather worried because of her age shes 79 although shes a strong woman this has really knocked her for six,
Today is a very cold day very windy and my feet are freezing, well thats all for today,

Traumatic Morning

I have a traumatic morning this morning hubster had an appointment for physio this morning at our local hospital everything was fine he got up at 7am by 8.15 he was back in bed he had some sort of funny turn... he said he felt faint so sat on the floor next thing his arm shot out from his side and he started to shake i can tell you it really scared me i screamed for Mike who was getting ready for work, i am utterly useless in emergencies, anyway to look at him he had no colour in in face his lips were grey and he looked awful anyway we got him into bed and he fell straight to sleep, I got dressed came downstairs put the coffee on mopped the kitchen floor and all the while i was thinking i should ring the doctor to come out and see him, so that's what i did the doctor said ring 999 i am always reluctant to call the emergency services just in case they think its not a real emergency but i called anyway by the time the lady on the end of the phone said if you have any pets put them in another room and make sure the front door is open the ambulance was here i just couldn't believe how quickly they responded they were very nice paramedics they came in and examined hubs who by now had most of the colour back in his face they put pads on his chest and did a heart examination (his father died at 56 of a heart attack) anyway they think it was low blood sugar that caused it he must have moved too quickly and that's what caused him to faint /collapse, I can tell you i was damn scared, I am not ready to be left on my own, as of now hes still in bed, the paramedics did say they would take him to hospital hubs didn't feel it was necessary the paramedic that was talking to him said if you were my dad i would say just rest in bed BUT if the symptoms come back we will always send out another ambulance anyway that put my mind at rest so as of now hes in bed resting,

I want to say i highly respect our Health Service they are probably the best in the world and i don't say this just because of this morning i say this because of the help i myself have received from them as well as them helping hubster this morning,
