A good morning from me.

I hope you are all well, especially Jon.

The weather is horrible but I have letters to write so at least I don't have to go out in it.

I hope you all have a good weekend.

barbsy

hoping everyone has an enjoyable weekend.

have you all got your chrissie stuff sorted out now.

big hug for pixies sons hoping something will work out pixie.

love from barbs x

pixie

Good morning. It's nice to see the sunshine this morning and to have got rid of all that wind and rain.

A busy day for me writing letters so I won't be around much.

I hope you all have a great Sunday.

Speeds

Good morning all

Wet here still - we had a smidge of sunshine about 9 and now it is dreary and raining again.

Have a fun Sunday everyone and happy letter writing Pixie. Thomas and I are making all of our Christmas cards today so we will be busy.

barbsy

good afternoon, sorry i missed the morning. hoping everyone is well. back to the doc with the little man tomorrow he has his school christmas show tuesday but i doubt he will be well enough and hes really upset, im so sad for him. pixie i hope you manage to get your letter writing done today i know how hard these things are to put into writing but clearly your dear son cannot go on suffering like this its just not fair and the school should be listening to you. if you get stuck for words or anything you can always ask me, ok. take care.

love barbsx

pixie

Poor Jon, I hope the GP can sort it all out for him and for you.

Mine were the same when they were younger Barbsy, they got everything and got really poorly every time too.

Thanks for the offer of help with the letter Barbsy, it is very much appreciated. I have finally finshed the one to the school and it's been sent via email.

I now just have to write to head office and to the LEA. I guess that's my evening spoken for too.

Dad's taken them both to the cinema so I have some quiet time for now.

I hope you have a good evening and Jon starts to feel better soon. xx

Rabid

Good Morning everyone.
Its Christmas Eve already!

I hope everyone has a great Christmas Day.

Take care

pixie

Good morning to you all.

I hope Christmas day was good for you all.

Are you feeling better now Barbsy and Jon, I do hope so?

We had a lazy day yesterday. We don't have the traditional Christmas these days and it makes life so much easier, in our particular circumstances anyway.

I hope you all have a good day today and can relax a little after what was probably a hectic day yesterday. xx

barbsy

good morning to you all.

thanks for asking pixie, jons fine now and im still coughing and spluttering everywhere!

the kids opened all their pressies yesterday, papers all over the place, few ups and downs, mum moaning all day about her aches and pains,les sitting there and not wanting to do anything,jon...mr hypo man running all over the place...and me wondering what a normal day in the life of a normal family would be like, whatever normal is, who knows!

its all eating and clearing up isnt it.

we popped out for lunch today just a sandwich and a coffee, now the kids are watching herbie on tele and mums taken her moaning upstairs for a lay down!

oh for a moments peace....hope everyone is well and enjoying the holidayperiod.

barbsx

pixie

Good morning everyone.

It sounds like you had your hands full Barbsy.

I sure hope that Jon will be feeling better by the time school starts again as it sounds like you need a break from all the hard work of looking after a poorly young man.

Off to do the weekly shop today and I'm dreading it. I hope it's not too busy.

I hope you all have a good day whatever your doing.

barbsy

morning guys

mum and les are both going home today and jons being taken to see jack and the beanstalk. tomorrow he has a playscheme for three hours and i can have the morning to clear up and make the house look reasonable again!! actually i think i will sit and have three hours sipping caffiene and using up the last of the choccie bikkies, could do with some relaxation now.

whatever you are up to i hope you have got through a problem free christmas.

love barbs x

I'm hoping for a nice quiet day with nothing much planned except some more ironing.

I hope you all have a nice Sunday.

angel28 · Good Afternoon!!!

Its a beautiful day and my children are all very awake and were from around 9ish - which is lucky for me since my son was unwell through the night - I am shattered! Well and truly - so out comes the redbull and pro plus to carry me through the day. My eldest daughter is doing well today she has only had 3 fits this morning! But same amount of absences as normal!
Cheese and tomato toasty anyone?????

Marion x

Rabid · Re: Good Afternoon!!!

angel28 · Good evening

Ive had a real hellish day today ! I am shattered - my two youngest have really played up today - especially my son - I find it impossible with his perceptive evasion syndrome - I can tell him off countless times and he does the same things over and over again and on days like this I feel completely drained! Well Ive another sleepless night to look forward to again no doubt. Because when I am not getting up with one or the other of them I just cannot switch off! especially on days like this... I think I am going to have a long soak in the bath and a glass of wine - if the children dont prevent me..... but only sticking to one glass just incase..

Please someone ! send me a peace prayer!?

pixie

Hang in there Angel.

A nice soak sounds just the ticket and of course the drop of a little something. I hope the kids give you some free time to enjoy both.

I hope some of the other members will pop in soon but it's always a little quiet at the weekends and of course all the children are off school too so a busy time for all.

I hope tomorrow will be a better day for you. xx

pixie

Good morning everyone.

It's still dark outside but it feels warmish.

I hope you all had a reasonably good night with not too much disturbance and that you all have a good day on this New Years Eve.

barbsy

good morning.

looks like we will be having a cold spell towards the end of the week, i wonder if we will have much snow.

going to the seaside today, going to wrap up well and have a nice long walk,blow all the cobwebs away!

happy new year to you all, barbsx

pixie

Enjoy the seaside Barbsy.

I hope the weather stays decent for you.

A very happy New Year to you too Barbsy. xx

angel28 · Morning all...

Hi its a little dull here - but Im having a much better day today than the past few days, I even managed to load a few pictures on here of my family...

hope you all have a good day and enjoy the celebration of welcoming in the new year...

Marion x

pixie

The photos are lovely Marion.

I'm so glad you are having a better day too.

I hope the rest of the day is just as good for you all.

pixie

Good morning to 2008 from the Pixie household and to all you lovely folks
out there.

I hope the first day of the new year will be a good one for you all.

angel28

Happy New Year for 2008 everyone! x

pixie

Good morning and a Happy New Year to you too Angel. I hope it's a good year for you and everyone.

It's dark and chilly today but I've so much to do I don't suppose I will feel the cold.

Hubby is at the dentist and the kids are still in bed. Peace for a while!!

I hope you all have a good day.

angel28

Good Morning!!!
The weather is mild but nice and sunny here today, the children got up at 9.30 and they are all playing outside nicely now - so Im going to get on with some ironing and clean my windows!!

Hugs x

pixie

An early good morning from me today. Brrrrr it's cold today so wrap up warm. It's supposed to snow later so I hope you all keep safe and warm.

Daughter back to work today and for those back to school I hope you all have a good day.

pixie

It's morning again so hi to you all.

The weekly shop today, hope it's not too busy at Tesco's!

I hope you all have a good day whatever you're up to. xx

Speeds

Good morning all

I am looking after my friend's children today from 9.00 til 2.30pm. Twins aged 4 and their sister aged 8 plus Thomas of course.

All are doing Hama beads at the mo hence my 5 mins up here

pixie

Good morning.

It's bright but breezy today and a bit chilly too.

Just housework planned for today including the dreaded ironing!!

I hope everyone has a good weekend.

Speeds

Techinically afternoon but as I am still in my PJs I am posting on the morning slot.

Have a fun day everyone.

I have one very excited little boy who has to wait until 4.30pm for his party!

pixie

I hope you both enjoy the party later.

I take it you will be getting dressed before you go or is it a PJ party.

Speeds

We are both bathed and dressed now and just finishing lunch.

It is at Bracknell Bowling Alley - 20 kids - I know mad

However bowling is one thing that Thomas can do with his peers without noticable differences (at least at the mo). None of the other kids attending have any special needs.

pixie

Good morning to you all.

I hope the party went well yesterday Speeds and that Thomas enjoyed it.

How is everyone else, coping and keeping well I hope?

It looks nice out there today but tomorrow is supposed to be a rough day so make the most of the calmer weather today folks.

Have a good Sunday.

pixie

Good morning from me.

What a wet and windy day it is today.

I hope nobody gets too wet on the school run.

Have a nice day everyone. xx

pixie

Another early good morning from the Pixie household.

It's very dark out there and raining but at least it's not too cold or windy.

How's everyone doing, it's a busy New Year so far here?

Hope you all have a good day and that the youngsters have settled back into their schools OK.

angel28

She looked at her daughter with joy and bliss,
not a single thing did she want to miss,
little did she know behind that smile,
was a very special child.

On she went struggling for a bit,
while people would ignorantly call her child it,
harsh cutting words she just could just discard,
but the pain of the disablities she found hard.

But in her heart she would always see,
the smiles her child would make with glee,
she would always be thankful for her miracle,
no matter the problems she had yet to tackle.

On her own with her but full of hope,
she wondered how things would develop,
the not knowing was the hardest thing,
but she was just happy knowing of the happiness her baby would bring.

My heart goes out to the others who care for love ones,
to all the sons and daughters, dads and mums,
struggling to cope with everyday life
the hardship and strife.

So when you feel down and low,
and like there is nowhere to go,
just remember this place
it's our space.....

to get across our feelings and views,
and read of everyone's news.

Dont forget to make time for you
and this will help you get through
the bad days that come your way
with each be thankful for each good day.

By Marion Lynch

Speeds

Good morning all from me to you
Its windy here, dark and cold, oh poo
What a lovely poem Marion dear
The words so simple, but oh so clear

I shed a tear as I did read
Such words so chosen, made my heart bleed
Your poem written with such skill
For clarity like that I could kill

But never a truer word was written
About the babes of which we're smitten
But then the joy turns in to pain
Will we ever smile again

Then without a backward glance we do
Get back to life with baby goo
And dote on our special people born
We stop looking all forlorn

But hey, its not always fair I here you say
We have to struggle most of the way
The milestones which others fit right in
Never seem to fit our little ones fins

And then, with development delay
The body old, the mind still plays
So now at 7, body's too big for Sam
But I want those pyjamas Mum, I want Fireman Sam

But at 7 the body is too old for Sam
But the mind is ready for the Fireman
His antics bring a smile to his face and eyes
Why cannot there by age 7 PJs in his size?

But now I am rambling far too long
On this my Good morning song
So have a good day, albeit cold
Wrap up warm, with the weather be bold

xx

angel28

It isnt hard to see that although our hearts are tired and full,
we can untie the knots and pull through,
whatever blizzards are sent our way
we will pull through the hardest days.

Thanks for the kindness of your response to my words,
its good to know they have been heard,
more importantly by someone who who understands,
and with that I have to give you thanks.

Ive got so much to do this dreary day,
although with a few cuppa's I will be okay,
Got to plough through some ironing
thank god its not still raining

It just dampens my mood and makes me feel down,
when the sun hides and just wont come out,
another day when I probably wont speak to anyone
but at least Ive jobs that need to be done,

Thankful that the last couple of days are passed,
appointment days just go so fast
Just glad I have my mum to go too
and listen and help me through

Had some hard news yesterday, but nothing new for me
In writing we got Sophie's diagnosis, finally!
Mosaic Downs Syndrome we are told
Im sure there's more information they hold

They always take their time in helping
but at least I got her statement thing
through the post to say she can attend
special needs school, there's success in the end!

Speeds

Aww you poor thing
Being left with the ironing
And not a soul to cheer you on
That's not fair, will it take long?

A diagnosis is so good to hear
With mixed emotions though I fear
To hear what's wrong with our little souls
Is like a rollercoaster call

As for the voices on the phone
Do not feel you are alone
I know its hard to iron and speak
But if you can manage a little sneak

PM me your number and I'll call
We can have a chat
Over a virtual cuppa, before we fall
Back to the work, no lack of that!

I've just done a search on how far it is
For my place here to yours at Mytchett
Its about 10 miles, that's so close
So instead of virtual, I can host

A coffee for both you and me
To chat about our families
So when you're ready, give me the sign
For our coffee chat, either yours or mine?

angel28 · just wrote this for someone who was down on another site..

Here's a little ditty just for you,
Hopefully will help you get through
the struggling times past, present and future
of those you can be sure.

Just remember you are a hero to your family,
for them your love they can always see
even if you're feeling low and tired
you're much better than any help hired

Your home isnt a prison but may feel that way
with each bad days there is always a good day
you're amazing for everything you do
but dont forget you need time for you

We all struggle to cope with being a carer
but dont forget, you will always matter
the difficulties your endure and are hard
but they make you the amazing person you are

Never give up even though your emotions want you to
there are people who can be there for you
So if you need to offload just go for it,
this is the place to type all of it.....

Speeds

This morning tale is here to tell
How the wind and rain does still fell
We are putting off our little trek
Of going out to school and back

So morning all and hope you're fine
And you've got better weather than mine
Tis wind, rain and wind and rain
My hair will never be the same again

At 12 today I have to say
I am looking forward in lots of ways
To meeting Marion (Angel) for a tea
I am very excited, tis like the bees knees

I know we'll get on just fine
We spoke for 90 mins of time
Yesterday on the telephone
It was lovely to chat to someone who knows

So now I must off to school dash
And in the muddy puddles splash
Coz we have to walk down an unmade road
Which is not fit for humans, more like toads

pixie

You brighten up my day every time I come on here and read your poetry.

Good morning to you all.

I hope you and Marion have a lovely meet up and enjoy your tea.

Have a cuppa for me.

Have a great day everyone. xx

angel28

brrrr.. chilly and cold, chilly cold,
today the kids are as good as gold,
I was running late this morning,
I awoke late yorning,

Cant help but think how miserable the sky,
I need a towel now, oh my!
I had a great night last night
my parents turned up what a sight!

But for me it was literally the best night,
my parents eyes were open in delight
to see my sister and I singing
and now I know of the love we were bringing
It made me feel so warm inside
I smiled and beamed and almost cried..

My Mum and I were never close,
but I have to remember my sister and I she chose,
we were adopted you see when 4 and 5
and that was the beggining of our lives.

She told me last night she was so proud of me,
that we were the best daughters who could ever be,
She said she wouldnt ever change a thing,
and for her and my dad, songs I did sing,

Dedicated especially to them each had a song of their own,
'Perfect' and 'Hopelessly Devoted' both songs so well known
A duet my sister and I performed 'Tell him' for them,
I love her so hard, my sister is a gem,

Nothing and no one will ever come between
me and my family and that can be seen,
Im so lucky to know of a love so true,
All through my life they've helped me pull through,

So here's to a family so loving and strong,
who have loved me even when Ive been in the wrong,
they've carried me through the difficulties and struggles,
and they are my big loving Hero's.

Speeds

We hot choccied early
we changed our plans
With bacon butties
In our hands

We chatted til 12
From 10 - wow wee
We could have chatted
Til it was time for tea

It was great to meet
Such a lady like Marion
To share our experiences
It was like a marathon

We could go on and on
And never be bored
Chatting about our special children
Those 4 so adored

We will be meeting again
Soon, very soon
I could not believe
We had chatted til noon

Thank you Marion for the time
that we spent today
Can't wait for the next time
We get together to "play"!

angel28

oh no, i cant believe today,
I feel this dreadful way,
my throat so sore and eyes stinging
my head and ears are throbbing,

dont know how I can see type today,
my glands are up & the sky is grey
Ive got my lemsip on the side,
I feel like death warmed up inside

My voice is now almost gone,
I dont even feel like putting clothes on
so here I will sit in my pj's,
and have one of those slobby days.

The children were up so early,
although they can see Im poorly
and so good they are being,
and I got someone else to do my ironing.

Cant wait till tomorrow now,
and if my cold will allow,
I can go to my Mum and Dad's place
where from the children, I get some space

Not quite sure if I will manage roast dinner,
if I dont start eating,I will be get much thinner,
but I can never resist my mums cooking
so Im sure I may even manage everything.

pixie

Good morning Angel, sorry you're feeling so poorly.

I'm glad you have a good family to help look after you and the children while your feeling ill.

I hope you get better soon and have a good weekend.

A good weekend wish to everyone.

angel28

aaaw thanks, im losing my voice cant believe it! oh well... hope everyone else is well and has a good weekend x

Speeds

Tis late for a morning, it's actually night
But I'm saddened to see that Angels not right
Poor thing we must 've talked to much
To get poorly so quickly, at straws I can clutch

Tis the season of colds
Flu and the bugs
And all that we want
Is a jolly big hug

So get well soon Angel
I hope you feel better
Coz I need some more chatting
It made me fine fetter

And for everyone else
I hope and I pray
That you are all well
And had good times today.

pixie

Good morning all.

I hope you feel a little better today Angel.

It's wet and windy here and my daughter has gone to Wales biking in this.

I think there'll be loads of muddy washing for me later.

I hope you all have a good Sunday without too many stresses.

pixie

Good morning all, I hope everyones well and that Angel is feeling better today.

I have loads of muddy washing from my daughter to do today. yuk There's usually sheep poo and allsorts of greenery in it too so I really enjoy hand washing that lot, not!

I hope you all have something more interesting and less poo'ey to do today.

Have a great day everyone. xx

Speeds

Good morning all, its raining here

Rhymeless today - must must finish these darn reports - 2 down one ot go!!!!

Speeds

It is still morning
And now the sun shines
I am now smiling
I'm a lot less behind

I have done my reports
And sent them away
Waiting for the retorts
But now I can get paid

I hope you are all having
A lovely Monday
The outlook is brighter
When the sun's on its way

But now I am changing
To a project thats new
I have one week for thinking
Before Belfast I'll have flew

I am off next Monday evening
To Belfast for Tuesday
I have so much to do though
So I must start today

I need to book flights
And a hotel to sleep
At least some one else
is paying for my keep

So see you all later
I am off for round two
Of my work for today
before I can chat along with you

Speeds

Another rainy day
Is what greets me
And you I suppose
While sipping morning tea

The flood warnings are out
What's this all about?
I am sure that when August comes
It'll be hose pipe ban - a drought

So enjoy your morning all
this rainy Tuesday morn
and along with me and my tea
this weather we can scorn

pixie

Good morning everyone.

You are a busy bunny Speeds as always. I hope your working trip to Belfast is a good one and that you get some chance to explore a little too.

It's raining here again too but we will try to forget the rain and have a good day.

I hope everyone in a flood risk area stays safe.

Have a good day all. xx

barbsy

a very wet good morning, well nearly afternoon now, from me.

i have so much catching up to do.

hope everyone is well.

pixie

Morning all, I hope you are all well.

It's very dark this morning and wet as usual.

I hope nobody is having problems with the floods.

Take care everyone and have a good day if you can. xx

Speeds

Good morning all, little time to talk
Its sunny here so I'm off for a walk
I'm going to Virginia Water
Although work is telling me I didn't oughta

Sorry to hear its still wet for you
We are dry here today, long over due
I will blow the sun up to your way
So you can share with us today

pixie

I love Virginia Waters, went there a lot as a child.

Enjoy your walk and have a good day. xx

angel28

morning all! I forgot Karen - when was it I asked you to come round??? anyway... hope you have a nice day....

I prefer this forum to the other one Im a member of - at least people arent horrible to me

pixie

I'm sad to hear people are horrible to you somewhere else, there's no need for nastiness at all.

We are all friends here and even if we sometimes don't agree about things I like to think we can all be civil to each other regardless.

You're our very own little Angel here. xx

angel28

aaaw thanks so much - thing is i was actually trying to help this person and she bit my head off - in response - some people get so snarled up just because they are a carer - I dont see the point???? I dont mind what people think of me - because I know I can stand on my own two feet and Im not a victim despite some people's attitudes towards carers... and this one person on the other forum - says she is fed up people treating carers as hapless victims and all i could think was - if you act like a victim course you will be treated that way! no wonder she thinks that all she does is moan and moan.... oh whats the point in whinging we have to help people help us... am i making any sense????? xx

Speeds

Morning Marion (well afternoon)

You've made me smile as usual. AND I love Pixie calling you the forum's very own little Angel. Makes me feel inadequate as a Speeds - I need to be a goblin or summat

Thursday - I will try and get round after being at my Mums........

If not we can do next week.

I am so so cold - just eaten lunch and now my body is saying - right - you've walked me, fed me now sleep me

Virginia Water - well where we went near VW was fandabbydosey this morning. Zola has been swimming - mad fool - so did Rufus - my friend's weimy and Belle paddled!

We walked for about 1 and a quarter hours and chatted nineteen to the dozen as we had not seen each other for ages.

angel28

aaaaaaaahhh yes..... little angel - i think that is rather apt???? little yes and angel because i always like to see the best in everyone (and i cant help bein cute - lol, sarcastically grimacing!) and... i had an ex boyfriend who never used to call me marion - it was always angel or babygirl..... aaaww quite sweet x

barbsy

morning to you all on this rather chilly morning.trying to catch up on all the posts here when i can. hoping everyone is well. barbs

angel28

The leaves fall from the tree's,
crisp and colourful
the morning bitter breeze
the sound of the early morning owl

as people scrape off their icy windows
and pack the children into vehicles
the sky begins to show
clouds and grey colours- dull,

I hope the night owl will be still here,
in the evening when we are asleep,
although it is his time of year,
his gentle hoots, wish we could keep

But he will fly off to another place
our early morning alarm and reassuring singer,
to spend some of his long and still days
Our, owl of winter...

pixie

Good morning.

Everyone is bright and early today.

Off out today to get the young man's eye test and a look round the shops while his new specs are being made up.

Buying a birthday cake for next Monday and some gluten free cakes for my daughter too so she can share in our lads 16th.

It looks horrible out there but shouldn't be too bad in town.

Have a great day everyone.

Belfast went well - had a disagreement with security on the way back. Stupid woman

Had a flat tyre today hence my non maonring post - I left home at 8.30 today for school run and got home about 30mins ago now -

getting tyre fixed.

Now got to make a few calls, nip to post office, get Thomas Tag Rugby stuff together...................when will it ever end.

Good morning.

It's bright but chilly here. Nice not to see any rain today.

I know what you mean about being all behind Barbsy, I'm also trying to catch up with lots of things too. Maybe by the end of the week I'll be back up to normal speed.

Glad you got back safe and well Speeds after your little hiccup with security.
It sounds like it was one of those days for you. I hate those sort of days when everything goes wrong. I hope today is a better one.

I hope all is well Angel, not seen you for a few days.

Have a good day everyone. xx

Sorry again - afternoon all - been out with my mate Sarah for a crafting morning (am knitting a hat for Thomas, a scarf and a shawl)

Anyway - hope all is well.

Pixie you kindly asked about Angel. I txt her this morning as we are meeting for coffee tomorrow. Her little girl has been poorly and has been sent home from school again today. Please everyone wish her little Sophie well soon.

All well here - -just off to school and then to soft play at Little Angels.

Thanks speeds... Im just so argued out with the schools and everyone - feels like im constantly on the phone all the time or stuck in meetings about either of the kids - mum came with me today - we to rorys school to discuss his new IEP and his teacher was there, his learning assistant, the behviour specialist and the senco rep... it was a very good meeting, we got through a lot - and they even offered to help me fill out the DLA application form..I think his school are great!
Cant say the same for sophie's school though. Ever since I gave them sophie's diagnosis in writing they seem to phone me up for the slightest little problems and to be honest with you - sophie's been well enough for school the last few days - granted she is having a bad week and is virtually not talking because she has had so many fits - but that shouldnt stop her from going to school.. they know she has epilepsy and are supposed to be able to deal with it.
Ive requested that the special needs education panel call me tomorrow to discuss her moving over to portesbury school (the special needs one) in camberley sooner.

Good morning all I'm off today
Over to Mychett for a coffee
Straight from school, I'll wend my way
Guided by Sat Nav woman, if I may

I hope everyone is well
Only time will tell
What today has to bring

But its Friday today
So shout wayhey
The weekend is coming in

Morning all. Thanks for the poem Speeds, nice to see you cheering us all up with your rhyming words again.

Enjoy your coffee with Angel and give her a big hug from me.

I hope all are well and you all have a good day.

good morning to you all. nice dry day but a bit nippy here.busy cookiing and clearing up as my daughter will be home for the weekend, jon has his carer booked for the morning so i can collect her on my own. i think we could all write a book about school problems, as was said earlier always meetings and more meetings, usually held cos they dont know what else to do, could it actually be more helpful if they just listened to us parents who always know best, nah....to easy for em.

keep smiling, barbs x

morning everyone! Im still a little down - thanks for coming round yesterday karen it really cheered me up - i went and joined blockbuster yesterday and rented out shrek 3 for the kids...someone recommended 'knocked up' but I didnt find it funny at all...
I got a reply from the people at the council who issue the statement and they have totally ignored my request to bring forward the day for sophie to attend portesbury - all they are doing is ammending the mistakes on the statement!!!!

pixie

Good morning all.

I hope the weekend is going well Barbsy with your daughter home for a couple of days. It's good that you can get some time to collect her and spend time just with her for a while.

Sorry to hear you are feeling down Angel. It's hard enough caring for our kids but so many people who are supposed to help us seem to make things harder all the time. I hope things settle for you soon.

Have a nice weekend everyone. xx

Good Morning Everyone
