Haven't posted anything on here in some time. I know hardly anyone will see this, but I'm just feeling a bit lost today and this makes me feel a bit better. Goodbye old friend.
Finally managed to get the little dynamo to pose for photos! £700 in total for @PancreaticCanUK, hair and a donation set for @LPTrustUK. Astounded by the support, thank you all!

#PancreaticCancerAwarenessMonth. Our little star has so far raised £575 and counting, more than we'd ever have expected! Very proud of our little Meg-astar

The hair goes to @lptrust along with a personal cash donation. The justgiving page is for @PancreaticCanUK Her target was £100 (not bad for a 5yr old!) and she's well past there already. I've not got many followers on here, so feel free to share!
For the first time since 1st March, I went to the pub. Buffalo wings, Elvis Juice and Hazy Jane at @BrewDog in Ellon. Great time had by both of us. Thanks to the staff there.
If you try to treat everyone with dignity and respect, not always but for the most part, life is a bit easier. Give it a go, maybe until Wednesday at least?

Missing this wee man, but suspect he's living his best life with the 24hr attention he's getting at the moment. Regular visits now as part of our now extended household. Thanks for the piece @charleyad21

PS - He'd been stung by a bee when I took this a few days ago, hence the bump on his cheek. Didn't learn his lesson and ate another one yesterday. That's Jack Russells for you. 🤦‍♂️
Want an escape from the neverending tide of awfulness washing over us? If you didn't watch the repeat of @ProfBrianCox's Forces of Nature on BBC2, get it on catch up. A feast for the eyes and mind. Took me back to a better place in space/time.
Realise it's a repeat, but thank you @JaniceForsyth and @ed_vere. #authorslive has been a massive help in getting my 4yr old ready for P1. She'd seen it before but this is her favourite episode.

There are plenty of folk out for show, but we will continue to #clapforourkeyworkers in our household. We thanked and donated to the NHS last year after the death of a family member. We worry right now about close family members in the care industry. I want my 4yr old to..

appreciate what we have, and who really keeps this world moving. I respect many of the reasons people mag choose not to, and I don't judge who is or is not out. I do it to reinforce the message about why she should be proud of her family and what she can aspire to be.
Had a MASSIVE rat lowp across the back door step and saunter across the patio. Took off up the garden when I went after it and is now taking up squatter's rights under the decking. Next time Roland....next time....
50000 wks of into lockdown and I'm questioning if my daughter is actually mine. I think her real father may be Satan.

I stand by my appalling grammar.
Things I do now do at least once every day that I hadn't done for ages or at all before: Eat fresh local produce for each meal. Exercise for at least 1 hr. Speak to family. Practice spelling and counting with my daughter. At least 3 household chores (probably managed 1 before).
