Wrap my words around you....

Hi all

Well I came back to update so I must be on the mend from my writers block, I`ve had the week in bed with the flu, not good!!! felt as if ET and friends had taken over my body!! only just got my legs back hopefully thats it on it road back to hell and I`m on the road to feeling better. Well the Teen and Mr Rugby left for Australia in April, they have a one bedroomed shack as she calls it in Fingal Bay, near Nelson Bay in Sidney. They have both found jobs and Mr Rugby is doing what he loves best playing rugby for the Fingal Bay team. They are having a great experience and are due home on the 19th Dec, so Christmas in both houses should be fun this year. We speak on the telephone as often as possible and when Hairy gets up to go to his job at 3am I`m awake and find that this is a great opportunity for a chat lol!!!! The house is tidy, the fridge is full and I`m still moaning he he, when they come back and it all goes to pot........I will love it! I`ve got a voluntary job at the local hospice, I really enjoy going and meeting all the new people, it`s a lovely place and a sad one at times too. The job is much the same and it`s been a year and two months since I moved there....how time flies. We are planning a Pink Moonwalk Party this year to raise money for the Breast Cancer Charity so fingers crossed that it is as sucessful as last years. The response to that was excellent and we can`t thank eveyone who helped us raise all that money enough!! I`m off to catch up on my programme on TV so until next time take care all.

Hi all

Don`t even know if anyone will read this as it`s been a long time since I wrote anything here!!! Guess I`ve put up the wee woman spring cleaning as this is probably what I have been doing since my last entry....spring cleaning my head, if that is even possible! Lot`s have happend since I last wrote here and I think I had a lot to sort out, my relationship with my younger sister has finally come to an end and from where I now currently sit it will not be resolved, emotionally it gets to the stage where it drains how you are as a person and you just have to put a full stop to it and move on. Other things too........ but I might write about them another time. The Teen and Mr Rugby have moved to Australia till the 10th of Dec and to say that I miss them is an understatement! I am more than looking forward to them coming home. The experience that they are having I would never deny them but for everyone that they have left behind there is a huge void that only they can fill and we are all looking forward to having them back in our fold again! The fridge will be empty and the house untidy but hell it can be filled and put right lol! I have been on a diet and lost 11Ib in weight which I am loving! more to go as the bikini is calling me for my summer hols and I can wait to be on the beach with no wobbly bits he he!

Well this is short and sweet as I just wanted to put a wee quick note in this journal, my hubby will be glad that I have finally updated this as he has nagged me for months to get typing, so until next time take care all.

luv Bella xx

What Linda Means

You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are balanced, orderly, and organized. You like your ducks in a row. You are powerful and competent, especially in the workplace. People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality.

Hi Everyone

It`s hard when you lose someone and it can be even harder when you try to write something about that person without feeling as though your heart is being strangled....rather than write a huge story I have included the words to a a song sung by Bette Midler, for to me this is what he meant to me and the words of this song say it all...........this is for him..........

"Wind Beneath My Wings"

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that's your way.
You always walked a step behind.

So I was the one with all the glory,
while you were the one with all the strain.
A beautiful face without a name for so long.
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.

It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
but I've got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it.
I would be nothing without you.

Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.
I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.

Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
You're everything, everything I wish I could be.
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

Oh, the wind beneath my wings.
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.

Fly, fly, fly high against the sky,
so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings.

Goodnight.....Sleep tight.....I love you......

Hi Everyone.....

Hav`nt written here in ages, how time fly`s lol! I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and are looking forward to a good New Year. I`m wishing for all of you that this year brings you good health, happiness and a few other things that each of you might be wishing for. Christmas was quiet and the Teen and Mr Rugby treated me to a new mobile phone and a GOAT! Yes I did say a GOAT.....I like to know that someone else will be getting something for Christmas and as part of mine the Teen and Mr Rugby paid for an African family to have a GOAT that will supply them with milk, this has to be my top present that I received this Christmas! Hairy bought me a pair of White Gold diamond earring as well as all the other little things that he treated me to so I can safely sy that I have had a lovely time. The anticipation of Christmas coming and the excitment that I felt has never really grown up, I still love the Christmas Eve and the new PJ`s to wear for Santa coming lol, maybe the child within us never really grows up. I`m off for a total of two weeks in the holidays and I still can`t quite believe it, I`ve never had so much time off having worked in retail all this time, so it`s bliss. Instead of waiting till the nNew Yaer to make my resolution I`m doing it now while I feel motivated, I`ve made up Linda`s FAT busting tracker........no weighing, just measurements and a pair of trousers that I can`t get into. This way I will be more motivated by the inch losses and the trousers that don`t quite fit! They are only one size smaller than I currently am, no use trying to achieve 3 sizes smaller just now and by going down a size at a time it`s another way of keeping motivated, don`t set your goal too high, little ones are more achievable! The Teen and Mr Rugby are getting themselves organised for going to Austrialia, getting their visas organised and all the other bits like having enough money in their bank accounts back home so that they have money when they come back. They are working all the hours they are able to so that they have the money side of things all organised and doing a great job of it too.(leaving time for fun as well...all work and no play, not good for them ethier) I am hitting the sales today just to get out of the house as I now have cabin fever as Hairy has had to work and had the car! Leaving it till now will hopefully mean the rush is over and I won`t get trampled lol. I`m meeting my cousins that found me through my journal next Friday, it seems mad that we have never met and I`m really looking forward to it, we are having a meal in a little Italian so it should be fun I`ll keep you posted. Well that`s me all cought up and I hope it won`t be long before I come back to write, on a final note my thoughts go out to Lahoma and Kim`s family I hope that they are coping with the loss of these great ladies who will be truly missed by everyone. Until next time take care all and stay safe...............

Hi Everyone

As I was driving to work the other day I had a thought.......wait for it ....it`s a good one, I thought if I had to list 5 things that I had learned in reaching the grand old age of 47 what would it be??? well here is my 5  things:

No 1:I`ve learned that I`m no longer willing to attempt to cover up my bum with the excuses that they have for pants these days for one: my bums a lot bigger than it used to be and two: I don`t have the energy or the breath left in me to squeeze myself into them so I`m resorting to these......

No 2: Hairy and I aren`t the same shape as we used to be....."Was".................."Now"  but hell who cares as long as we`re happy!

No 3: On occassions you might need a hard hat to be around me as ....at least I give notice and you never know hard hats might come into fashion!

No 4: Families are like FUDGE, mostly sweet and a few NUTS into the bargain!

No 5: No matter what life throws at you, Look inside yourself and you`ll find the strength to keep going.
