Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas!

The countdown has began to Christmas and to hubby having 2 weeks holidays! Wooohoo! We are so lucky to have a business which makes us enough to survive, food on the table and the chance to buy a few gifts for loved ones. there are many families who don't have this blessing and Christmas is just one time to reach out to those in need!

We are all so excited. I have done all the shopping have to do some baking then we can sit patiently and wait for Santa's Arrival!!!

This year though we did something very special. We donated a hamper to a family in need in our area. We bought a toy for the kids each and a gift voucher for the parents. We also did a huge food hamper so they could have a wonderful Christmas and new year! We have wanted to do this for a long time and saw an opportunity and grabbed it.

We never expected anything in return we never wanted thanks, we just wanted a family to enjoy their Christmas without having to worry how they would feed their children.

And what a surprise we had when we received a beautiful card form the family. No name but they were truly blessed to have received our gift.

So to the family out there who we helped may this Christmas be filled with a little joy, good food and a big warm smile and hug. And we hope we can do the same next year.

Merry Christmas everyone don't forget that kindness and love go along way. A warm smile or a helping hand will always be treasured by those who receive it!

Motivation where are you!!!!!!!!!

50th post!

Im back and have a smile on my face :)

Life sometimes can get a bit dark when you let yourself live in your head...so I am coming out and finding the sunshine :)

So my 50th blog! WOW!

Life is what you make it! never allow anyone to make you feel a certain way! You own your feelings! If something /someone makes you feel a certain way let the feeling pass talk about it and move on! Life is too short to get stuck in that dark cloud! Like I have learnt these past few weeks!
the only person your hurting is yourself as no one knows how you feel.

So love, laugh and educate yourself on everything you love! Go and grab life by the short and curlys and go for a ride!

Mwah xxxx

Where is a big rock when you need it......

I would really like to just crawl under a huge rock and escape from here for a while....I would love to just be by myself and not have anyone whining at me or grabbing at me for a feed.

I adore my kids abut I need a break! I am slowly going mental. I haven't had a full nights sleep alone for over 3 years now, and am tired of waking up with muscle aches cause of how Floo is sleeping on me. I know this will pass as it did with moo but at the moment I just want something to be about me.

I want to go do the grocery shopping by myself, I want a mother in law who loves me and wants to be a part of our lives, I want a baby girl and be able to buy pretty girly things and do ballet lessons, I want to look good and not feel so ugly and ashamed of myself all the time, I want a nice house where my friends want to visit me, I want a clean house, I want children who sleep all night like most of my friends kids,I don't want to be the organiser anymore, I want someone else to do it, I want to be able to have a relationship with my husband, I want a glass of wine dammit!!!!!!!!

I know I am the only one who can make things happen but just once I would love to feel like I am being spoiled by someone else...I want to be on someones mind and have something thought full done for me, I want to be cheered up and made to feel special.

Life just seems to be throwing shit at me at the moment and I cant seem to find the baby wipes to clean myslef up and see the light! what the hell is wrong with me??? I have a wonderful husband and gorgeous kids I should be freaking happy right! Well why am I sitting in a big black hole waiting to be rescued!

Ahhh venting feels good!

How can this not make you smile! I love my boys!

Broken...mistakes...and all the love to give!

I have a big mouth...and sometimes I don't know when to shut up!



I used to just say what I wanted and never thought about the consequences then it bit me on the proverbial behind and I grew up and learnt to keep my mouth shut!



Well I let it off the leash the other weekend and I have no idea why...maybe its stress...maybe I am so exhausted my brain doesn't work properly or maybe its because I am sick of being the one who is walked all over and forgotten and left out ?

Maybe I am over analyisng things as I know no one is hung up about this and it probably hasn't even registered on their radar .

But its hard to dismiss feelings especially ones that make your heart hurt and you feel so lonely that no one would miss you.



I want to feel wanted again...I want people to ring me and want to see me and not just visit the kids! I want to feel worthy of peoples attention and not be stopped mid conversation because the kids are doing something cute and then everyone forgets what I was talking about.

I just want someone to SEE me, really SEE me and not just see me as mum to the boys. I want to be me again!

So I am shutting my facebook down and trying to find who I am and not rely on anyone else to make me feel good about myself. I know it will be tough to try to love myself again and I know life will still be awkard thanks to my big mouth but I have tried to mend what I have done but it doesnt seem to have helped, so helping myslef seems like the next best thing!



Sorry I haven't blogged in a while and now when I decide to its to vent and sook!
