  In memory of our linda who died 4th July 2007  

 Reality of Life  

Life isn't just full of happiness,
It's sunsets, it's love, it's tears.
It's the thoughts of yesterdays memories,
That can wash away all out fears.

It's that very painful experience,
That each one of us has had.
It's the laughter that fills the air,
It's the tears when you are sad.

It's loving that someone special,
That at one time made you smile.
It's the pain of losing that person,
But the memories that make it worthwhile.

It's that child in every one of us,
Although in time we'll all be old.
It's the good times we'll never forget,
It's the memories we'll always hold.

It's the hug that we all need,
When we'd rather drown in our sorrow.
It's the hope in every one of us,
That makes us hold on for tomorrow.

Well here I am once again folks   on the 2/7/08

                       In Memory Of Our Dad

                **Hi Everyone**

 I put this on message board as a thread but thought i would put it on my blog as well...

          The pleasures of getting owder!!, 
          And Each Year Brings New Wisdom.


1. It is easier to get older than it is to get wiser.
.
2. I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it left

3. I finally got my head together, now my body is falling apart.

4. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded . . .

5. All reports are in; life is now officially unfair.

6. If all is not lost, where is it?

7. My wild oats have turned into prunes and All Bran.

8. Some days you're the dog; some days you're the hydrant.

9. I wish the buck stopped here; I sure could use a few.

10. Kids in the back seat cause accidents.

11. Accidents in the back seat - cause kids.

12. It's hard to make a comeback when you haven't been anywhere.

13. Only time the world beats a path to your door is when you're in the bathroom.

14. If God wanted me to touch my toes, he would have put them on my knees.

15. When I'm finally holding all the cards, why does everyone decide to play chess?

16. It's not hard to meet expenses... they're everywhere.

17. The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.

18. These days I spend a lot of time thinking about the hereafter......I go somewhere to get something, and then wonder what I'm here after.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING I HAVE LEARNED THROUGH THE YEARS?

The quality of life is directly related to the people in your life.

I've been blessed with an awesome family and good friends.
It's truly  Wonderful World because you are in it.

Just thought i would pop along and update my blog... Nowt much to say really, only what a crap week ive had without my tinternet!!! 

I was plodding along on saturday the 7th june minding my own buisness it was around 2pm i was on my favourite sight WW when ZAP!! mi internet went of, I saw a chap maulin about in the box across the road,..thought nowt of it but shortley after he left it went off... so i waited a couple of hours then i phoned up to ask what was going on they just told me all the usual stuff like unplug your modem re boot your pc all that usual stuff like they do...

but still nowt!!! so they said they will have to get a technician out yessss,. but it will be tuesday the 10th june... well how will i cope all weekend without my internet!!!   

So i thought i have to get stuck into my garden...Very therapeutic i may say!!!

got quite alot done so it wasnt as bad as expected, Anyway tuesday came the techniciasn came out told me it was my modem...so he put me a new one in..still no net???

He told me it was a fault in the box over the road and would need someone else to fix it...WHY!!! coz he couldnt take the filter of that had been put on...he said they would be there within the hour!, 3 hours later "No one" so i phoned up AGAIN...they said they would have to book a technician to sort it out....WHA!!

So i said when can they come by this time im loosing it she said it will be thursday the 12th june i couldnt belive it. So thursday came someone came out he said it was a problem  with the "BOX" over the road  Der!! do these folk "NEVER  COMMUNICATE" the lights was on but no one home hehe!! with one another at all so he left as well...so by now im really frustrated why it isnt being fixed... so another 3 hours went by i phoned yet again he had me unpluging the modem and all that stuff...then woosh!! it was on again.. But it stinks the way i have been treated and all these technicians coming out and "NOT" knowing what to do they dont like to wait for there money eh!!  So im back online again....but for how long who knows!!! it just shows they can pull the plug on anyone...and the worst thing is ive never had an explenation as to why? thats very frustrating. 

                        "BUT AS THE SAYING GOES SHIT HAPPENZ"

Well I have just put some photos on my blog of our garden, This is something i'm very proud of, we love to keep it looking nice, and were we spend alot af time just pottering aroung and chillin when we can.

The best part is the decking area, you can sit on there and see all the different parts of the garden. Its a very relaxing part.

If you look at my blog photos you will see a section thats family friends & pets, well on there we had a really big gazibo, my son craig called it the party tent!! because of its size and how many people it would hold around 20 people comfortable, it was 20ftx9ft and that was on the decking in 2006 for my 50th birthday party it was a fantastic party. Free booze all day and night... and as much food as you could eat!!!

With having different levels to the garden it is ideal for entertaining you dont get under one anothers feet. We also had a 12ft trampoline so you can emagine what it was like after a few beers phew!!! it was "Rockin that party" all together there was around 40 guest but its one party that will always be a special party. Hope you enjoy looking at my photos bye for now xx

Hi folks, Ive just been going through some pictures and found these, My fat photo and me now, i lost around 10 and half stone,...."good eh!! it took aprox 12 month to loose the weight in october 2004 i had a gastric bypass operation and it was the best thing i ever had done. It saved my life i had sooo many health problems it was a case of not having much choise really, i had chronic asthma i couldnt walk very well it was hard work just to do everyday stuff so i was refared to liverpool i had to wait aprox 3 years but it was well worth it.  I was loosing around a stone a month sometimes a little more I had suffered from asthma for around 40 yrs now i dont have trouble at all i had been on steroids since the age of 11 i havent had any since i had the op. I feel absolutly brilliant i go to the gym, i go swimming, i do alot of walking, everything i COULDNT do before im doing now. The best part is when i go on a plane i dont have to ask for a extension for the seat belt.... and i can put my table down,..yippeee and go to the loo on the plane without knocking everyone flying "wi mi big arse"and i just feel 100% better ive never had as many clothes!!! its brill. When i went for the op the surgeon told me it was a very serious operation and there was a risk i wouldnt make it through.. But its like i said to the surgeon my weight is going to kill me in time so i was prepared to take that risk!! And im here and much healthier,.. So anyone who is having this done and is worried "think of the benefits" to your health... i can promice you it is worth every ache and pain i had key hole, but was up the day after, it kill't  me but i managed and i was walking round the shops within 14 days..  bye for now luv julie xx
