Life Goes On

I was visiting friends last night. This is our Wednesday Evening Date and he was discussing my Blog with me.

He commented that if he did not know me he would thing the following of me:



1. I am a party Animal

2. I am clumsy and accident Prone

3. I am a raving lunatic

4. I am a magnet for catastrophe (Well this part is true)

5. That my children are raving Lunatics

6. That my whole Family are stark raving mad

7. And his final add to his list was, I am one very strange person


I listened and digested his comments and realized form an outsider’s point of view -Yeah I suppose this does seem to be the impression created by my little antic dotes.


My Life has been a bit of a circus and full of trials and tribulations but it has been filled with so much laughter and I have decided that these special moments are the ones to focus on and leave the ugly bits to the dark recesses of my memory.


The collections of stories are from my child hood and up to recent times, so in 46 years of being on this wonderful planet of ours, I am sure I have quite a few boring stories to tell. I will not however go into these details, so I confess to the following:


1. I am one of the sanest Lunatics you will ever meet. I over analyze every situation and maybe tend to become a little erratic at times. (Well my children will agree)

2. My artistic talent allows for my slight exaggeration at times of how bad a situation may be or I may use a little more theatrical description to describe my life.

3. I do enjoy the odd glass of Red Wine and Hooligan Juice but I am not a big Drinker. (For personal reasons I will never be a big drinker)

4. My Children are amazing and have given me the best experiences ever and I thank them for allowing me to share their stories and not have to hide their identities. It can’t be easy having me as their MOM!

5. My l life I am sure will not suddenly become this bed of Roses and I will overcome the obstacles thrown my way as I have always done – with a laugh and a step forward and sometimes a very heavy Heart, but I will continue. My Bern helps me get through many a tearful night and tearful day and together we have literally Faced death and we overcame this and continue on our life’s journey.

6. My Family are my stability and I have been blessed with the most wonderful brothers and sisters

7. My Friends are precious and they have agreed to let me use them in my blog so I love them for this too.

8. My stories are True, they really happen as I describe them, and enjoy sharing them.

My hope is that they are equally enjoyed by the people who read them.
I will continue and I do appreciate the odd Skype asking where my daily Blog is, or the mail I receive describing how the reader needed medical assistance after reading it due to the fact they were paralytic with laughter.

Thank you for your words of encouragement.

Well that is all I have to say, my next blog is in the beginning stages still and I am sure I will have it up and ready very soon.
