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 šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£

Happy Humbug Christmas šŸŽ„ lol šŸ˜

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 šŸŒž 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...
