Christmas was ok and we celebrated in my beautiful mum's honour and had lots of FUN. Just like she told us to and would have wanted. Of course we missed her more than words can say and we really kept her memory alive.
Now the festives have ended and I'm back home. I literally am dreading the New Year. It's my Mums Birthday on New Years Eve too. I plan to just be in my pjs and chill with my dad and hubby. I really don't want the New Year to come. I don't want a year to start that my beautiful mum won't have lived in. I know it will come and I know I will find inner strength. If this year has taught me anything it's I'm stronger than I ever knew, I cope better than I ever knew. This is the hardest thing I have ever faced. It's werid but I know I can do this because my mum raised me and gave me all these skills. I just wish she was with me. I miss her so much, it still hurts like it was yesterday. Xxx
Aww thanks Kate. Xx Well done to you too. XXX wow what a picture. Xx
I feel a bit brighter this week. Focusing on something is helping. Xx
Something that made me giggle and given me comfort this week. They say when you get older you turn into your mum. 
Jeez I say things or do something and think. .wow I'm turning into my mother . So I guess she will always be in me. Xx. She defiently left me some of her little querks. Even my sister and fella laugh and say ."your so like your mum" xx
It's my Friday today and then a three day weekend so yipeee. XXX
As you said Kate, great work to Sunshine and you too and also SPu, your mum’s would be proud. Another good picture, don’t know what’s going on with the weather, one minute, lovely and sunny, then raining, it was snowing here in Sunderland this morning. I saw a rainbow 
yesterday and thought of you and your mum Kate. I also saw a little robin and thought of my mum, mum loved robins.
Good luck with the training, as you said it’s about building up slowly, that’s what my brother in law did, when he was training for the Great North Run.
Hope Team Mac are managing to get through the week ok - thinking of you all xx
Hello all -
Just wanted to send you a message and see how you’re all doing?
Thank you Sunny for thinking of me and my mum when you saw the rainbow 
Had a fairly positive week and kept my runs going. Then had an almighty wave this morning after having a dream about mum 
Managed to still have a nice lunch with a friend and then went for a run when I got home - this cleared my head a lot. Now got into bed after a bath and pizza. Sat night rock & roll.
Thinking of you all and sending lots of love xx
Hi Kate and all. Xx
Aww sending you a hug. X completely relate to dreams and then a wave. I dream of my mum often and big waves follow. Xx
Not too bad this week, in the end. Last weekend, very emotional. But been calmer the end of week. Had a nice couple of days off. Been to the gym twice and walked Stanley twice. That clears my head. Must admit having a focus of healthy eating and exercise has helped.
So rock and roll here too!! trying to distract my self from junk food. So been spring cleaning, so cleaning on a Saturday night whilst watching The Voice. Very Rock and roll . (Least I'll be slimmer with a clean house ) Going to bed soon thou. Back to work tmrw. Xx
Aww glad you had a nice lunch. Xx Good to treat your self.
Wishing you all a peaceful Sunday. Xx
How is very one this week? Its sunny again here and I said I would share my Easter pictures, although very early but I hope they give you a chuckle or two.
I rather like the bunny one myself. I also finished my painting for my friend now which I will share after I have given it to her. She's on holiday at the moment, I hope the weather is kind for her too. Big hugs to all
