Clown Craze.

I am having a hard time at the moment with what is going on with all these people dressed up as clowns. I am finding it very hard as I am rally scared of clowns anyway. I cant go out in the dark on my own unless I'm with my partner due to fear of seeing them. I think it is really stupid as it spoils it for all the children. My kids don't even want to do Halloween this year as they are so scared.

My partner pointed out when we were talking about it that clowns are meant to be fun for the kids but because of what's going on it has scared them. This is not going to end good as there has already  been injuries and some have been badly beaten a child (13 year old boy) was badly hurt when he run in front of a moving car, he was wearing a clown mask but he had nothing to do with the craze, unfortunately the car driver hit him. He suffered head and wrist injuries.

How many more people are going to carry on doing this and keep getting hurt or even worse and die because of this stupid craze? It needs to stop so that all the children can stop being so scared and remember that they can like clowns again. I don't think it will as Halloween is coming up and they are getting reaction's from it.

This really needs to stop. It has got that stupid that now the kids isn't even allowed to go Trick or Treating and they have put a ban on all children not just young children, all ages. They have done this for their safety. They have really taken this to far and the police need to do more than what they are doing and that is nothing other than telling the public to stay safe.

I really wish there was something else they will do before someone gets hurt.

Making Handmade Cards.

I wanted to write a post about what my hobby is and why I love doing it so much. As you can probably tell by the title that I make my own greeting cards for any occasions. I love making cards as I find it very relaxing and rewarding not just for my self but for others. my mother-in-law was the one that got into it and at first I started off with just a few bits that I got for Christmas but now my collection has grown and I'm now doing different style cards.

I have made my own group on Facebook to sell them on to other people just to make a little extra for myself as well as to put towards buying more craft stuff for my collection. I am going to be making pop box soon as well as they look lovely and great for gifts. I never thought that I would be able to make anything really as I'm not very good at art or anything like that but it is really easy to do.

The other good thing about it is that you can buy craft stuff from your local poundland store or the range. There are great websites as well and they aren't badly price either. I can't see myself doing anything else now. I am going to buy storage for all my craft stuff as I am getting so much now.

I am now starting to make Christmas cards to give to family and friends. I'm also putting pictures on my group and I will gladly make it for them. I will keep you all updated with how it is all going and how I get on.

If you would like me to make a card for you or anyone else that's fine. My cards cost £3 and I accept PayPal as payment. I do add a bit on for postage but this may vary depending on the weight of the card(s).

I hope to speak to you all soon, until then I hope you enjoy my blogs.

Changing Bedroom Roumd.

So I thought that it would be a good idea to change the bedrooms around and swap rooms with the kids as the boys are in the small room and my little girl has the biggest room. So because the stuff has doubled in the boys room they really need to swap rooms. I thought that it would be easy and go to plan but my daughter doesn't want to give up her big room for a small room.

But she has to as the boys have out grown their bedroom and need the bigger room to put all their stuff in it. So we are going to change their rooms around and then they can make them there rooms. They can pick what they want to decorate them and we will do that for them.

I also wanted to change my room around as I thought that I wouldn't be able to do it, but after standing in my room and looking around I can change it and make it look bigger. I can't wait to see the results and how all the bedrooms will look when it's all done. I will upload pictures of the finished results.

Sorry For Not Blogging.

Hi everyone I know I haven't put up any blogs for a while but I've had so much going on with my children and, then my immersion heater has now decided to pack up so I'm left without any hot water until they manage to get me a new tank. Which can take up to 10 working days to 2 working weeks.

I am going to get myself back into the routine of blogging again. I have missed blogging as it gives me something to think about and get my feelings out into the open. I will be putting up blogs on a regular basis from now on. As they say "getting back into the swing of things".

I am sorry again and I will be getting back on track again. Sorry for the short post but just wanted to let you all know what was going on.

Let's Stop Bullying.

We see it all the time and we hope that it doesn't happen to our children but some time's it does and we are there for our children for them to talk to us and we can try and sort it out to stop it from happening again.

But why do people feel the need to bully? And it's nit just kids, it's adults as well. Bullies are horrible and they make other people's lives a living hell. The bullies don't know how they really hurt people and some can't take the bullying anymore and end up taking their own life's or the bullies go to far and end up killing them.

We have seen it all over social media just lately and what I have seen is totally disgusting and completely wrong. They are not like what bullies use to be like when I was younger, and they use to call you name's they have now started to use there hands, feet or whatever they can get hold of.

This needs to stop and the bullies needs to be named and shamed. I for one would not be happy if they were my children and they were doing that to other people. They are even doing it to disabled people including the elderly. Thus even happens in care home.

We think that our loved ones are safe and well looked after in these home's but they aren't and again they are recorded and put on social media. How can anyone do this to someone is beyond me. I was bullied when I was younger but not to the extent that they go to nowadays. It has gotten wrote as the years have gone on from children at school to babies that are very young to the elderly that can't fight back.

When will this stop and what's more how can we stop it? To many children, babies and elderly people are getting hurt and worse killed. What has this world come to?

Open Day At Southampton General hospital.

We had an open day at our hospital on the 24/09/2016 to show everyone behind the senses of what they do and the departments they work in. I took my children to it and they had so much fun. They got to sit on the emergency motorbikes. They got to see the intensive care unit ambulance as well as walking through a grant inflatable breast to look at the signs of knowing when to spot breast cancer.

They got to walked around the hospital and go into departments that they normally wouldn't be allowed to go into. They were very interested to find out what they do and how they find out what is going on with people DNA or even their cells. They even found out about dry ice and how it works. They even had fun with having a fake cast on which they loved and found it very funny. 

They got to see a lot of the wards and how they help people and also how long they might have to stay there for. They also found out that on one of the wards they help little children fighting cancer and how they make them feel like they are at home for their time on the ward, they also have enough space to help with parents staying with the children.

We also found out how DNA is found in people and how they use it to help find things that may have or is in a family DNA. We also went to the children's outpatients ward where they found out what they do and where they take children to have their bloods taken.

The open day started at 11am and finished at 3pm. But in my opinion that wasn't long enough as there was so much to see and do and there wasn't enough time for the children or adults to have a look around.

We are hoping that they do it again next year as the children loved it and maybe we will see all the things we didn't get to see. But other than that the kids enjoyed it very much.

Here are some more pictures.

Thinking About Christmas.

We all need to think about Christmas and when it's the right time to start, am I starting to early. Some people like to start in the January sales which is fine ad you can get thing at a bargain price. Other people like to wait until it's closer to christmas as they start to drop prices and you can pick up a lot more for less money.

You can get some really good things for less money in most stores. Smyths does 2 for £15 on there toys, argos does 2 for £15 and 2 for £30 and toys r us also do lay way which is you pick what you want and pay a % of the total price then every week or month you pay what you want to pay.

As long as it's paid off 6 weeks before the end date of the lay way it's fine. Once the payment has been made you will take the goods home with you. There are other stores that does good quality toys like home bargains, b&m bargains and poundstretcher.

You can never start to early in fact starting early is good as you can speak it over the rest of the months ahead before everyone else start hitting the shops before the mad rush to get their gifts for everyone they are buying for.

Have a look around and compare prices before you buy as you may find the same thing somewhere else but cheaper and who don't want to save money?

The Internet is great for comparing prices and making a list also helps. You will be amazed by how much you will save and you will be happy with your results.
