Hi world, I'm Monday'ish!
Shit happens, OK that's fine, but WTF does it always have to happen at our address??? Yep you guessed it, more shit with the "ex" But I will not lower my self, and I will not go into it. Besides, I'm better than that, I just hate being the topic of conversation where ever I go! But the good thing is right now, I'm so popular!!! Just for the wrong reasons!!! LOL
Which brings me to the fact.... Can't humans be cruel?!?!? Seriously its like being back at school, and not fitting in because you don't have the right shoes, or whatever the "in" thing is! I don't fit in, because I married the wrong bloke!!! And I mean, some of the women involved in this gossip are into there 40's.... I swear right now, that I will never discuss someone Else's life for my own personal amusement, because it HURTS and it hurts bad like a jelly fish sting!! No actually, its a lot worse!!
My pregnancy is going OK, I ache a lot and its harder third time round, which is why My sister Holly is my HERO, as she is carrying her fifth child..... She needs to get a new hobby now! I have a back problem going on, like I trapped a nerve and boy is it painful, but you just gotta get on with it, and smile!!!
I've been smiling a lot lately, mostly because the hormones have kicked in, but also because if I don't smile I'll crack, and I'll shed many tears!!
So I'm SORRY its been so long, And I hope we are all OK!!!
Take Care
XXXXXXXXX

Drink up me 'earties YO HO!!
Yo, ho, haul together,
hoist the colors high.
Heave ho,thieves and beggars,
never shall we die.
The king and his men
stole the queen from her bed
and bound her in her Bones.
The seas be our
sand by the powers
where we will well roam.
Yo, ho, haul together,
hoist the colors high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never say we die.
Some men have died
and some are alive
and others sail on the sea–
with the keys to the cage...
and the Devil to pay
we lay to Fiddler's Green!
The bell has been raised
from it's watery grave...
Do you hear it's sepulchral tone?
We are a call to all,
pay head the squall
and turn your sail toward home!
Yo, ho, haul together,
hoist the colors high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never say we die.

Daddy sent this!
Today my Dad sent me this, and I love it.... I want to share with you guys!
His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day, while trying to make a living for his family, he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby bog. He dropped his tools and ran to the bog.There, mired to his waist in black muck, was a terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been a slow and terrifying death.
The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to the Scotsman's sparse surroundings. An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved.'I want to repay you,' said the nobleman. 'You saved my son's life.''No, I can't accept payment for what I did,' the Scottish farmer replied waving off the offer.
At that moment, the farmer's own son came to the door of the family hovel.'Is that your son?' the nobleman asked.'Yes,' the farmer replied proudly.'I'll make you a deal. Let me provide him with the level of education my own son will enjoy. If the lad is anything like his father, he'll no doubt grow to be a man we both will be proud of.'
And that he did.Farmer Fleming's son attended the very best schools and in time,graduated from St. Mary's Hospital Medical School in London , and went on to become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of Penicillin.
Years afterward, the same nobleman's s on who was saved from the bog was stricken with pneumonia.What saved his life this time?Penicillin.The name of the nobleman?
Lord Randolph Churchill .. His son's name?Sir Winston Churchill.
Someone once said:
What goes around comes around.
Work like you don't need the money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's watching.
Sing like nobody's listening.
Live like it's Heaven on Earth
May there always be work for your hands to do;
May your purse always hold a coin or two;
May the sun always shine on your windowpane;
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain;
May the hand of a friend always be near you;
May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
and may you be in heaven a half hour before the devil knows you're dead.

I'm soooo cheesed off this morning!!
Everything is wrong!!! I've been awake most of the night with a pain in my bump, which felt like someone had a red hot poker in there..... the midwife said to take a pain killer!!! Oh for the love of God..... did she not think I've tried that!!!
To top it all off the aftermath of xmas and the "credit crunch" is really rearing it ugly head in the Wilkinson House..... There are not enough working hours or days in the week to earn enough money!!! I think i need to go see the bank!!!!
Oh and poor poor Tiff.... thinking of you love, I hope they can fit you on today! They can't let you down twice!!! xx
