This is my Last blog today! I Promise, I have been a bit too blog happy today!
too much time on my hands!
this is just a quick one anyway just to say Congratualtions to my sister Kerry & her partner Robbie for the birth of their beautiful Baby girl Caitlyn!
Cant belive she will be 3 weeks old already on Tuesday! She is beautiful and always good for her Aunty Kay! :)
Was a great sucsess! :D Everyone who came said they had such a fun night!
People were up dacning and enjoying themselfs whilst at the same time raising money for a great cause 'The critical care unit at Ipswich Hospital'
I know a few guests who attended had personal experiances with that ward so I am so happy to say that we raised £1,900 for them :)
we also had the privilidge of some of the Critical care team there on the night.
They do amazing work and help alot of familes!
More than 150 people came on the night and myself and the Roteract club cant thank them enough! also need to say a special thank you to everyone who helped out and to the Live performances from Bernadette Ryan and Chelsea Francis who were amazing and got everybody dancing!
we also got the event in the paper which was lovely to read.
The Roteract club will be holding some more events in the new year so please keep you eye out for them! also will be having a meeting soon to hopfully find more Indviduals who would like to join!
Again thank you for such a special night below are some pictures of the night :)
Recently I have found things a little bit harder, I think things started getting on top of and I was feeling like I had to be strong all the time. I felt like people have been through far worse then me and having to deal with alot more then me that it would be selfish to talk about it, and I know i'm extreamly lucky to be where I am as things could be far worse, so sometimes I suppose I felt like I didnt have the right to be upset.
It's hard as I also just had little problems that I was letting get too me, and they were buliding up and feeling so much worse.
I dont want to go into too much as although im blogging and may be contridicting myself a bit but I dont want everything to be public knowledge and also I know it would be SO boring to read!! .. But I know there are other people who also have alot to deal with, so I hope that this post will let them know its ok to have to cry and talk about things, I did and I feel like my old self again! and i'm looking forward and getting excited about things and feel like im starting to be my old self again!
Talking about your feelings really do help even if you dont always get the answers or know the right thing to do... Just getting everything of your chest makes you feel much more relived!
On a bit more of a brighter note I hope you all have your Christmas decorations up :)
only 16 days till Christmas... I'm still a big kid when it comes to Christmas as I think most are... I have put a few things on my Christmas list! but mostly I like surpises I have asked for my Benifit make up though as that will save me money buying it :D I think I will be getting mostly money this year which will come in handy to put toward my Australia fund :) Less then 9 weeks to go! it will be one of my deams ticked of my bucket list! :) although it seems my bucket list keeps getting bigger! I think thats a good thing though as in life I dont think you should ever stop dreaming <3
I love little sayings & quoets sometimes they can help us though are hard times, and help us realise that others have also been there....but sometimes they can just simply help us see clearer on a situation that we are in... I saw this on another girls Blog she herself is going through a hard time and is being so incredibly brave, but anyway this little paragraph mad me think and i know alot of people do just settle so i hope if anyone reads this it will help them and inspire them to go further and do more! :)
“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.”
Also a saying that is very close to me with what im going through at the moment is
'Life's not about waiting for the storm to pass... But dancing in the rain'
I have recently had it put on my ribs... the picture below isnt the best quality as just had it done also please excuse the orange patchy skin! my spray tan was inthe process of fading! alot of girls will know what I mean! :), but it just means so much to me I wanted it on me so I can keep positve and strong through Cancer.
