So todays topic was……. If you were a biscuit what would you be….

My answer a chocolate hobnob….

Why?

Because the chocolate holds me together, but break me and I crumble….. 🙈💙❤️

Not only do you have the almighty challenge of living beyond the grief, you have another challenge nobody sees.

This challenge is discovering the new you. You will never be who you were before, a piece of you has left, and what you have faced has changed you.

During this time, I cried, I laughed, I worked, I lived…. But something had changed and that was me. I was called a ‘blubbering mess’….funily enough it didn’t bother me as I knew I was.

I changed my career, I started on a new journey a very different person but still with a little piece missing….. Don’t be afraid to discover the new you….. This is ne 💙💔

1. Grieving has no rules

2. Everyone reacts differently

3. Some won’t physically express any emotion (but they are grieving)

4. You will feel guilty, responsible, angry and much more

5. You will feel like your the only one.. (but your not)

6. You will wish it was you instead of them

7. You will feel alone… But your not

8. Do what’s right for you…. What feels right.

9. Don’t be influenced by others

10. Give yourself time…

💙💔

Tomorrow my two teenagers are going away with their dad for the week.

Omg…. I hate being without them, I worry myself sick if I don’t hear from them…..

I will no matter what think the worst, but I know their dad will look after them and they will have a great time.

So I will just have to keep myself occupied and look forward yo the stories and hugs on their return.

If someone has treated you badly, don’t hold a grudge…It can only hurt you if you let it…. I have let so much hurt touch me when I was weak and lonely. Why??? Because I let it☹️You need to do one of two things, let the person know they hurt… As they may not know… Not yo shout or be bitter but rather to make them aware. Secondly you need to park it up, and forget about it as hurting any more, just isn’t worth it. It only hurts if you let it…. Chuck it in the ‘I don’t give a shit basket’That way you can carry on with your life and enjoy it 😁💙💔

I sit here with the kids eating tea, and I just know I’m so lucky….

I’ve been worrying a lot lately about the everyday things in life, and can honestly say…. Stress really an take over.

So I’ve picked up my colouring book… Its amazing what one hour of just colouring and choosing your colours can do ❤️💙💔

On this day 15 years ago I was gojng into labour… I was so scared…

What if the same thing happened again, it was another boy…

They took me towards the same room that 4 years earlier I had given birth in….

I couldnt…. We had a different room, a different story and tomorrow my big boy is 15 years of age and I couldn’t be prouder of the young man he has become 💔💙💪

Hi guys, sorry I have been a bit quiet. Not been feeling too well.

Tomorrow will be my last exam for the year….. Although saying that I have missed one due to illness, so may have to do that soon.

Anyway….. I’m proud of what I have achieved this academic year….. I have had moments where I have doubted my abilities, but I aint no quitter….

1 down 2 years to go!! 😁💔💙

When you’ve felt the pain of loss, and you’ve built yourself back to be the best you can be….

You become less tolerant of negative behaviours and hurtful actions of others and you distance yourself….

This is because your not sure you can cope with anymore hurt or pain..💙💔

I will always put you first…

I will hurt for you….

I will bleed for you….

I will hold your hand…

I will fight for you….

I will love you….

I will be right behind you….

I will catch you when you fall…

I will build you right back up….

To my children who make me proud every day 💓💙💔
