Imogen and Kieron and there departure to Australia travelling


The party Before Leaving (Excuse the photos if we all look hot and bothered)



Just before Imogen left she had said mum I'm not moving but I'm going to Australia and I remember thinking what moving !!!! Gasp .I felt this sinking feeling in my stomach and a few tears rolling down my cheek . Imogen is the one that always said she didn't want to grow up she wanted to be like the Peter Pan story. Imogen is always so close even though she worked quite long hours and I didn't see her everyday . Imogen was always there on the phone the life saver the one who bounded through the house and filled the house with laughter. Imogen is the type of person that would laugh at something and the whole room would be laughing with her. Imogen has that free spirit a person that gets on with everyone. In many ways Imogen is more like her dad but her compassion is like mine . Although many times she will say what she thinks which is funny when she gets going . As the youngest daughter she has always made us laugh so much.  Even when we used to visit my mums she would have my mum in hysterics she oozes fun and laughter and so much character.
 In my head I've got that little voice saying  I'm loosing my little girl !!! And a major sense of panic rushing through my head. Imogen is also the one who says would you like to come over for dinner or would you like us to take you to nannies or that little surprise to go out for dinner.
 Imogen said I'm going with Kieran to backpack around Australia (what an amazing trip ) but in my head I knew I would miss her like crazy. When we finally got our heads around the idea of her going I remember feeling excitement for them both for their adventure. This opportunity had arisen and it was a chance for them to go and enjoy life together doing something on their own. It was a massive step but they wanted to take the opportunity to see that part of the world and Imogen hoped to see Asia. I knew also it would be our first Christmas without a visit from Imogen and we would miss her 22nd birthday. Previous to their set of date they had organised a leaving party at local pub which belongs to kieran's parents. I knew that would be difficult even though people told me not to cry . We are a close family you see and anyone who knows me knows that I cry over everything. So trying not to cry because we wouldn't see our daughter for a year or 2 was going to be the toughest thing ever.
Well, as you can Imagine this wasn't possible.

I havnt written for sometime and feel this need to do a year catch up

This year has been the busiest year but we have met some wonderful people along the way . Jay became Mayor in may of last year 2017 -2018 so it’s been so busy and our schedule as a couple has increased. My fatigue has been very much out of control and I have had to rest to maintain my energy. Generally I just needed to pace myself and take time out and rest occasionally. My health has increasingly been frustrating but it’s one of those things . I get up and start the day and think for that day but it’s always with a struggle but most days I have to stay positive . I will give an update of events that we have undertaken throughout the year which will be interesting to see written down. In the morning when I can access the diary I will begin to make a list.. I tend to write and think better very early hours of the morning and my thoughts are much clearer. I’m not very good with noise and background sound so it’s much easier to be a peace and write through the night. This year for our fam...

Heat and plenty of cold drinks to keep my energy and trying to arrange my sons education

Why is it when your life is following a great path and everything plateus out another spanner comes flying into the works? It’s been so hot and I will tell you what’s been going on recently which will explain my first sentence. So it’s been absolutely boiling I hope your all enjoying the sun 🌞 but personally it’s been rather hot for me to get comfortable at night hence being awake at 02.37 am . Mum has been to visit but bless her she has been unwell with vertigo so it’s been hard to see mum and dad but every piece of time is like a golden nugget as they live in Essex. The last few weeks it has been really difficult,  Our gorgeous son is taught by and independent teaching agency for the last two years. Everything they have done has brought our 16 year old son up to speed with other kids of his age . The way the week was set out was great and the best environment for Caleb to learn. We have been told that the education panel that funds our son won’t be funding him for the independen...
