Girls going out out

For Zaynah's 1st concert I though I would ease her in gently and I booked tickets for us to see Kidz Bop at the Symphony Hall. They are kids that sing child friendly versions of current chart music so very PG.  We were due to go on the 11th April 2020 but due to the global pandemic it was cancelled. Not to let a little thing like that stop us we put on a concert at home and partied the night away.





I really wanted to experience Zaynah's first concert, just me and her before I became reliant on walking aids. So I though what the heck and got us Tickets to the Little Mix Confetti tour as her Christmas present. Not as PG but she already knew all their songs and I must admit I was also a mini fan. The original date was the 21st May 2021 but it was postponed due to COVID and Jesy left the group so we finally went on the 22nd April 2020. I think the group had simply grown up and maybe wanted to experience other things, like parenthood or simply staying in bed past noon because it changed from being The Confetti tour to being a Farewell goodbye tour.

I must admit we both had an amazing time and loved every minute of it.



Thank you Little Mix xxx

Not very routine.

The last time is saw my neurologist was 2018 and I was supposed to have annual appointments so he could monitor how my symptoms have developed. However due to COVID seeing DR's was getting very difficult, so after constantly leaving requests for appointments with Dr Hayton's secretary and getting nowhere, I went to my GP in November 2021 and got them to refer me. I wasn't expecting an appointment straight away but defiantly within 3 months. No, when it finally came through in August 2022 it was for the 13/01/23 so it would have been 5 years since I was last seen. Since then I had started using a walking stick daily, due to may small falls or twists to my knee I had developed a bakers cyst behind my right knee and I needed to chase up my speech therapist referral. I continued to wait for my appointment but then on 28th December 2022 I received a letter advising it had been change from 13/01/23 to 13/12/23. I think it was the fact I had waited so long, my bakers cyst had rupt...

This was the final day of filming and because of a delay with the chaperones COVID test results we had to be on set with the kids. As it was an early morning call and we had time before Zaynah needed to get ready we got to have breakfast, result. First stop after Zaynah had got changed was hair and make-up where we met Marcia Blackwood to tame her mane.   Then it was off to the location where we waited ages for the shoot time but at least we had lunch 😋 After we wrapped Zaynah and Gabriel were given Christmas selection boxes and a Thank you card signed by cast and crew. It was nice to see tat they were still treated as children not just as little cast members.   In hair and Make-up     Us with Gabriel and his mom With writer and actress Maya Sondhi who is also a former student of Bellford Stage School.

Its a wheelchair holiday

We have always been fortunate to be a family that holidays annually. I don't smoke, drink alcohol, eat out very much (approx. one), and I don't drive, so a week away in the sun is what I spend my money on. It used to be a big family affair with about 8+ of us going together but over the last few years, after COVID, the numbers have dwindled. This holiday would be different because I'm not able to walk for much distance or pain free, so it's my first in the wheelchair. Off we went to sunny Tunisia. Me, mom, The Gruesome Twosome and Bettie (the wheelchair).  I was apprehensive because of all the horror stories you hear about issues wheelchair users experiences. We once went on holiday with my brother in his wheelchair. The flight was delayed and it seemed like an inconvenience to arrange a lift to bring the wheelchair up. There was a lot of huffing, puffing and eye rolling. It was a very disappointing start to the holiday and made us feel uncomfortable. We spent the whole...
