Confessions of a bag lady.........

17th June, 2009. 8:47 pm. Feeling dead chuffed!

I just completed the Walk for Life for Cancer Research. 5km in 1 hour and 5 minutes. Not bad for a fat old cripple, eh? I wasnt the only one with a stick either. Got really choked up at the end - JD and I just hugged one another, crying and laughing at the same time.

The girls went on ahead - and finished in 58 minutes. They both wore messages on their backs saying, 'for the Nan and Grandad that we never got to meet' - I am so proud of all of us - and Im sure mum and dad would be too.

It was a fantastic atmosphere - sure I will post some photos in the next few days.Off to have my celebratory take away now

A lovely old man I know passed over today - please give thoughts to the brave family, who nursed him at home until the end.

Current mood: sad.

2nd June, 2009. 12:05 am. tired, hoarse, deaf...

but very happy.

Went to see one of the best bands on the planet tonight - the Manic Street Preachers. And Mab and I sang our hearts out, and cheered, and clapped - and she looked gorgeous in her short dress and feather boa (you have to be a Manics fan to understand the significance of the feather boa).

After all the stress recently - it was just what Ian and I both needed.

So thank you Ian and Mab for your company.

And thank you James Dean Bradfield, Nicky Wire and Sean Moore (and Richey Edwards) for making some of the best music ever made!!

night all

to see Angels and Demons tonight. Oh how I would have enjoyed it - if only I hadnt read the book!

Spent the whole journey home trying to explain to Ian how many vital things had been left out - and how the ending had been completely changed. Oh well - what can you expect from somone who appeared in Happy Days - LOL

Of cheap plastic greenhouses. Despite being weighed down by blocks, my greenhouse full of vegetable seedlings was blown over by the wind today. Not sure how much will live - have given them all a feed to get over the shock! LOL

I just want it on record that MsDemmie and budgie are two of the most loving, generous, genuine, wonderful people that I have ever met. They simply want to be left to live their lives in their beautiful Devon hideaway.

They dont deserve any media intrusion - and if you really want to know about them, ask me -NOT THE FUCKING NEWS OF THE WORLD!

Current mood: angry.

Geard passed over this afternoon.

Many thanks for all your thoughts, support and energy. Any that you can spare for Mark and Caroline (mum and dad) and Caz and Dave (grandparents who were only handfasted on Saturday) - would be appreciated.

Why do bad things happen to good people?
