Think I need to stop, breath and relax.....it has been such a busy few weeks and it has most certainly kept my mind busy but gosh I have a headache now!

Some great news though....
My very best friend and her husband had their first baby last Wednesday (the 10th) and she is so gorgeous and I am so, so happy for them, they deserve it, they went through so much to get to where they are today, Imogen-Rose is just beautiful and I cannot wait for cuddles!

......and in the midst of all the lovely comments they have had from people came these touching words...

Paula, just carry on doing what you're doing and it'll happen to you. It's a hard life but sometimes everything stops, you hold your breath and a miracle happens...and it's going to happen to you. Just keep going, just keep doing what you're doing, never give up and always know you've got your Mum, through everything she's there, look at her, listen to her, she knows, and pretty soon you and Pete will have your own little bundle of joy! So enjoy everything knowing "that's going to happen to me"....

So, here I think this song fits just perfectly, can't stop listening to it <3 xxx

Busy week planning and organising so just a quick post to show everyone our flyer design :

Also had a lovely evening on friday with some good friends, was great to see people and socialise - it's been a long time coming so thank you to everyone that came along!

And...for anyone interested in coming to our evening event for our fundraiser day, this is a song from the band that will be performing, this is one they wrote themselves and we love it and hope you will too, I am sure they will be a massive hit with everyone ~ 'The Reeds' :)

Tickets not yet available at the places stated but please let me know if you would like a ticket and I will make sure you get one... x

It's been a very busy few weeks, we have had our meeting with the Mayor and he is completely supportive of our cause and we are so grateful to the council for allowing us use of the town hall on Saturday 1st December.

So it's all about event planning now and this is the plan so far...
From around 9am we will have a variety of stalls with items for sale, we already have home baking, jewellery, nappycakes, cushions and crafts, sweets, cupcakes and lots more. We are also having a face painter from 11am-3pm and Santa will be popping in for an hour or so! Afternoon tea/coffee and cake will also be available and there will be a tombola and a raffle too.
On the evening from around 7pm-11pm we are having an evening of entertainment with performances from a great local band 'The Reeds', other acts yet to be confirmed, there will be a bar and nibbles, tickets are £10 so if you would like one then please let me know :)

Lots to plan and think about but it is certainly keeping my mind busy and something to aim for, really hope it comes together and will be a success. The support we have is amazing and we would like to thank everyone for all they have done to help so far, without our great family, friends and support from people we don't even know, none of this would be possible.

Not much else to report really, I still have up and down days and struggle to get myself woken up on a morning some days, going into town a little more now so it's nice for things to be a little more normal. Still on my tablets, my doctor says I should carry on with them but I am determined to get them out of my life.
Also, on the hunt for a job, hoping everything will just fall into place and the perfect job will turn up at the perfect time. I still have to get myself better and stronger before I can think about work again but I will get there.

Also, a good friend is in a local football team and he is putting to them that they perhaps think about doing a coast to coast run or something like that, they will get sponsored and help raise money for our cause, again this really touched me, some people have been so very kind to us :)

Hoping to get flyers/posters/tickets designed soon so watch this space for further information  on our fundraiser day..
