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 family has been great and we have had so many things around mayoral duties that have helped us meet many people and groups. Many of the groups we didn’t even know existed so it’s been a real insight.When jay became Mayor I became mayoress which was a real honour to represent our town and the people . I would do it next year in a heartbeat again I love to meet people and have been helping jay to organise events to fundraiser .I really hope I’m lucky enough to get through to elections in may so I’m able to serve on the the town council again . Unfortunately we all have to be up for election so it woo the be easy. I know that I love being part of the council as I’m able to make decisions and help with the decisions of our town.
Caleb is progressing well and being taught at home with an organisation which has been so much better for him. This process was implemented  due to his chronic fatigue. It’s been wonderful  to see how he has grown in confidence. Caleb always makes me so proud , even when learning is difficult he never complains . Caleb never gives me a hard time and he always tries in life and school and we have a great bond.. During lessons he is great and attentive and he has been doing some creative writing in the last few months. The main subjects at home he has studied has been science and mathematics and English . This is split between two teachers that come to the house Monday to Friday so two days of English and the rest of the days he has science and maths. This year Caleb has surprised me with his imagination in creative writing . The stories I really hope to find a publisher and illustrator to help with his story. I have thought about starting to find out the process so I can help calebs level of confidence and maybe if it costs a lot we could start a fundraising page like Kickstarter or something like that. I really think this could be something very special for him and maybe one day he will do much more with creative writing as he has a real flair. At the moment he has completed a short story but the next story is so much bigger . Caleb writes so detailed which is so inspiring to see what goes on in that mind of his . Considering calebs learning difficulties and dyslexia he has progressed amazingly. The teachers have really made time for his needs.

  1. Great to see how well and interesting things have been going for you, Jay and the rest of your family too. I know from seeing you in person who have a big challenge with your health but you have not allowed it to get in the way and are indeed "living and loving life".

    I hope that the year to come is just as good and exciting for you all.
