Joules , Boden and other brands (Rant )

My son has grown up so quickly and every design brand or shop brand dosnt fit anymore . Most clothes that are lovely stop at age 13 . does anyone else have the same problem as me . I’ve entered the world of Abercrombie and Fitch. And to my shock I found gap dosnt fit either . What do young teen boys wear now . Caleb hates big logos that’s why Abercrombie and Fitch seemed fitting for his style. Next still fits but they don’t really offer much in the way of clothing for 15 / nearly 16 year old. What do parents do ? I’ve looked at Hackett that still fits the age group he is currently in . Currently he fits into the older range of next. The shirt he is wearing was next last year and it’s still going good.
Converse  are great  but for trousers it offers very little.

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...
