Harry Potter and Fireworks all in one week!

31.

 HEY EVERYONE :D 

Sooo the last two blogs have been slightly different, most of you won't have seen blog 30 because I didn't post it on Facebook or Twitter because I just didn't think most of you would be interested, but by all means take a look if you want too :) 

 I'm not actually listening to music tonight, I'm watching YouTube videos (I'm obsessed!) because I was in Watford last night and didn't have internet, I couldn't watch the vids I watch so now I'm trying to catch up on yesterdays and today's YES I'M OBSESSED!! 

 Anyhoo...Wednesday of this week was the 5th November which is bonfire night :D my favourite night of the year. Bonfire night used to scare me a lot because of all the loud noises from the fireworks but now I absolutely love them. I find if I hear them throughout the year I try to see which direction they are from just so I can sit and watch in awe.

                

Thank you Robby for taking these pics (sorry the quality is awful, we don't have a proper camera)

It was so so busy at the bonfire, I couldn't see a thing. I was meant to meet my friend H-ie but because of the traffic I turned up late so we couldn't meet up before, and then because of how busy and dark it was I just couldn't find her so we didn't end up meeting :( and I've been off work for two whole weeks so it feels like a very long time since I saw her last *Hi H if your reading this*

Enough of Wednesday, let's talk about today, Friday, today was...HARRY POTTER day. Myself and Rob went to the Harry Potter Studio tour and it was so cool! I'm not a devoted fan of the films and neither is Rob but we both really wanted to go and see it all so we did :D

Quite a lot of pictures but please continue to read





















Those are just some of our pictures we took, again because we only have our phones to take photos on they aren't the best quality. 

We really enjoyed going around and seeing everything, a lot of our journey home involved the two of us talking about the films and how much more there must have been and what happens to the stuff outside when it rains, Rob got quite concerned about the Potters House because of the hole in the roof and what happens to the inside when the weather is bad...bless him. 

When I told people we were going everyone said how good it is and it really is :) I would definitely tell anyone thinking of going to go and see it all. I found it slightly funny that right next to the studios are loads of streets of houses, if I lived around there I think I'd hover around to try and catch a glimpse of a famous person.

I'm seeing my Dad tomorrow instead of Sunday so I might give you all an update on how he's doing tomorrow because I haven't in my previous blogs. 

I'm still needing donations and sponsors for the 10K we are doing in June, if any of you can spare a little change it would mean so much to me.

This may upset you...

50. Hello my loves. WOW we've made it to the fiftieth blog post, if you're reading this one and you've read all of the ones before, thank you for sticking with me and my public diary entries. If you are new to my posts then Hello and welcome to my life, my little world of, well, I'm not to sure...this. I'm listening and watching Sia - Elastic Heart, I absolutely love this song and I love the video! It's so incredibly powerful , I watch it without knowing what it is that is keeping me so drawn to it (maybe Shia's body...) but seriously please go and watch it, don't read the comments of the video if it's the first time you're watching it and let me know what you believe it is portraying. I won't tell you what I believe because I don't want my view to alter what you may initially feel.      I feel like it might be a good time to update you guys on my Dad. By the way, everything I write is solely my feelings and from my point of vie

In difficulty there is strength and laughter

53. Hello my loves... This may seem like a very strange time, some may think I shouldn't write at all right now but as I'm just sat here, waiting, I feel I should (plus I've been given permission from my sister Kellie and Rob) On Wednesday 4th February, which seems like a lifetime ago, I got a phone call to say things with Dad had took a turn and we all needed to get to the home as time was looking short. I can't explain the fear that was going through me. The panic was so strong I was physically shaking until i got to the home to see him.  I had no idea what to expect, what had happened or what was going to happen, I just had to go with it. I guess we all do when faced with these extremes.  I have to admit I was pretty shocked to see that once the sedation had worn off he was back to his smiley self, even dancing along to the music.  But we knew it was serious when they said he was now completely nill by mouth, no food, no liquid.  An influx of fa

Our story with MND so far..

6.  These are my feelings and my thoughts, no one else's, just mine. In June 2013 my Dad was dealt the card of Motor Neurone Disease, a horrible disease. MND attacks the central nervous system and causes muscles to weaken and waste away. People with MND have to struggle everyday with activities that wouldn't have affected them before. It can be different with each person but sadly the outcome is always the same, there are no survivors, only true fighters! There is no cure... In some cases of MND the person can also have Frontotemporal Dementia. A less common form of dementia but nevertheless devastating. My Dad also has this... I first realised that something wasn't quite right around January 2013, my dad and I were sat in a cafe and he couldn't open a folded lottery ticket my exact words to him were "can't you use for hands or something" his reply was "no, my hand has got really weak" I asked him to make a fist with his right han
