Today key word OUT OF STOCK

Today was the last minute dash for my husband whilst I rested at home due to my health.  I’m kind of glad some things were a real hit and we were lucky to get them discounted . The family started to do a secret Santa type thing because I used to get so emotionally stressed I would be ill every Christmas and end up crying . Anyway hubby returned with the last of pressies for my son and my daughtersand grandchildren’s presents.
Pre secret. Santa I chose my middle daughter Bronte  and hubby chose the other daughter Abbey  in secret Santa. What to buy your daughter !!!!!
I had in my head I was buying the her a Marimo.as she has a fascination for Japan and she had longed for one of these . Anyone who doesn’t know what this is it’s kind of cute and I will post a photo of the type of thing I mean . The only problem is I tried to order and it said ( This will arrive after Christmas ). My planning skills have been the worst ever since having my children. The youngest daughter pulled her dads name out on the secret Santa,. My son Caleb by the way is exempt from secret Santa because he is only 15 . Next year I think I need to plan better as definateley today has been testing and secret Santa is awful in some ways as you can’t by a present for each and it can be cost restricted.
I ordered a bike for my son .... So off they go this evening to pick  up the bike and they walked to the store . I call my husband and he said the bike isn’t in until after Christmas. I’m like your joking right !!!! Pre Christmas stress starts . My son is disappointed as they are turned away without the bike but promised it will be in tomorrow by the time I had a phone call to the store . You never know though with stores when they say the next day wether it will happen so I’m unsure at present . I’m sure they say that so I can’t continually moan down the telephone. Earlier in the day I said I said when ordering the bike they will be in early this evening to pick it up and we would make it up. So anyway I’m at home both jay and Caleb and our little pug walked to the nearest store and come back with nothing . I can’t say how cross I was ....why didn’t the person from the shop say it wasn’t in stock and why when I said they would walk down to get it didn’t they say , Sorry it won’t be here until after the 29 th December . After  Christmas!!!!! What your kidding I say !!!    Surely when you say it’s an early Christmas present it dosnt mean after Christmas. Finally I get hold of Steve  at the store apologising  and promises me it will be in tomorrow morning. I’m not sure and as for the marimo no delivery until after Christmas and some not until January . Option two an Amazon Echo  ....out of stock .I had forgotten to say Jay went back earlier in the afternoon and come back with ......a little something from pandora . Tonight just before I go to bed I double check my daughter has a pandora bracelet as I’m sure she has  !!!!  The reply pings back I don’t have one mum !!!! aahhhh the stress starts again . Now I’m thinking she will know what I’m getting . So much for secret Santa !!!!! Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Happy Humbug Christmas 🎄 lol 😝

After breast Cancer /what we were like and now

What we looked like 2 years ago  Post -Cancer Blues  The one thing i wasn't prepared for was Post Cancer Blues !!! I  really thought i dealt with the whole situation very well i hardly cried throughout the cancer progress and chemotherapy . Then the brick wall came with full force when all of my treatments stopped . I cannot tell you how many times i cried in a day because it was so many times .I wasn't prepared to have a complete melt down. Please prepare yourself for the possible onslaught of this . I thought i would be absolutely fine and ready to up and go again . I  was so far from the absolute truth . I thought in my mind that i would feel relief but in honesty i think i was struggling knowing what i had just been through . I felt lucky to still be alive but i couldn't get into doing anything i may of done before . i struggled picking up the phone , writing letters , functioning at good pace. every day was a fight with myself .  I felt vul...

My sponsored children with World Vision and Children International

Just recently i took the plunge to sponsor with two new organisations to our family after so much stress with another organisation. It was lovely to be treated with so much love and care and respect and so easy to pay . One thing is nice is that you can sponsor any child that you would like to. I took time in sponsoring because each child is a blessing and mostly with the guidance of God I was able to patiently think things through. I knew if I was meant to sponosr the children I had seen then they would still be there for me. First of all sponsored 2 children with world Vision. My first choice was Ana Clara who was pointed to by a friend who sponsors with many other organisations. I had seen another child I had thought of sponsoring but after a few days I knew it was Ana Clara that I needed to choose and luckily World vision have little videos which help you in a few minutes to gage what sort of personalty they have. Its sweet to hear them talk and Ana shined bless her and she was wea...

Build day 2 of the second week

Today has been focussed around putting handles on the doors and finishing over boarding the ceilings and building and area for a window. Everything is still in chaos as for us being a family. It's like being in a bedsit and I can sure know what that is like. I've been there done that and have the t shirt. The dust is still settling every day and its surprising how much we find and where. Overall my day has been pretty difficult with seizures and difficulty with speech but I have tried my hardest which is all the matters and I have been positive even though my day was somewhat tricky. Jay has been great always and the hero of the hour especially with me throughout the day. Supplying me with tea coffee and lunch.  Jay normally and pops into town to shop and stock up on needed groceries for the day . Jay has walked ditty like he does every morning otherwise she stares jay in the eye and you can feel the stare lol .Ditty although a tiny pug has an intimidating stare lol and she is...
